1924 INCOME TAX FOR
DELAWARE TO BE 6 MILLION
Continued from first page)

continued from first page)
iod, the closing night was compare
lively quiet, Monday night a steady
stream of taxables kept the clerical
force busy. Mails poured into the
Office during the entire day, keeping
other employees engaged in sorting
and arranging the returns. 1t is be-
lieved the number of returns for
1924 will exceed those filed for 1928.
The usual odd returns were receiv-
ed and the regular peculiarities in
questions concerning the tax. One
cent represented the smallest tax
paid. The largest was undisclosed.
The increase in tax over last year
was ascribed to various causes. 1t
was cited that continually improv-
ing business conditions may have
been responsible, or certain features
of the new law which resulted in
heavier taxation, or even that more
corporations organized in Delaware
had filed in the local district. Many
more full paid returns were receiv-
ed by Collector Herring than last
year. No separation Of corporation
and individual payments can be
made, it was pointed out.
The audit of the return in Collec-
tor Hering's Office will begin shortly,
it was stated. It is believed that few
delinquents will, be found in Della
ware in summing up the work in the
filing period.
