YOUR INCOME TAX
NO. y.

d. q
Your income tax for the year 1924
is less, in proportion to your income,
than was the tax for 1928. A rate
reduction, however, is not the only
benefit Afforded by the revenue act
of 1924. Increase in the exemption
for married persons, a rs per cent
reduction on " earned income" and
other changes in revenue legislation
are of immediate interest to every
taxpayer.
The revenue act of 1924 requires
that returns be filed by every single
person whose net income for 1924
was 1000 or more, or whose gross
income was $4,000 or more, and by
every married cople whose aggregate
net income swas $4,000 or more. or
whose aggregate gross income was
$4,000 or more. Last year returns
were required of married couples
whose aggregate net income was
$4,000 or more. Husband and
wife, living together, may include
the income of each in a single joint
return, or each may file a separate
return showing the income Of each.
Net income is gross income less GER
tain specified reductions for bust
ness expenses, losses, bad debts. con-
tributions, etc.
The period for filing returns is
from January / to March Is, 1925:
The return, accompanied by at least
one-fourth of the amount of tax due,
must be filed with the collector OF
internal revenue for the district in
which the taxpayer has his legal
residence or has his principal place
of business. .gSe

DECREASE IN COMMUNICABLE
DISEASES


From State Dept. of Health.
Reports received from the Bureau
of Communicable Diseases of Nthe
Maryland State Department of
Health, show that there was less
than half as much sickness from
communicable diseases in the coun-
ties Of Maryland in 1924 as in 1928.
The total number of cases report
able diseases registered in 1928 was
33,72b. In 1924 the total dropped
To 1925. =
! The greatest decrease was in in
iuenza which was epidemic in 1928,
with 1861 cases reported, but of
which only 1910 cases were listed in
1924. Typhoid fever is being con-
stantly and valiantly fought, dropped
from $50 cases in 1923 to 823 in
1924, a decrease of 16- per cent.
Dlphtheria, which is also fought as
typhoid is, both coming and going
that is, by irnmunization or proven;
i've measures, as well as by care and
treatment when cases actually occur,
showed drop of 80 per cent with
l,036 cases in 1928 and $50 last
year
Pneumonia, which always takes
upward turn when influenza j;
especially prevalent, and down
ward one when influenza is not an
active factor, showed drop of AZ
per cent, with 1,455 fewer cases Ill
1924 than in 1928. There were
Bliss cases in 1923 and 100 cases
reported in 1924.
Measles and whooping cough were
both ON their good behavior in 1924.
Of the former 7,242 cases were re
ported in 1923, and over 5000 less
in 1924, or total of 1,674 cases in
1924. Whooping cough dropp ed
from 1856 cases in 1923 to S11 in
1924.
On the other hand, scarlet fever
and mumps showed an increase.
with 1856 cases of scarlet fever in
1923, and 1,S5f in 1924; with 343
cases of mumps in 1928, and AL
in 1924.
There was also an apparent in
crease in tuberculosis, with 993
cases reported in 1928, and. 1,71S in
1924. The advance is. regarded by
DR.. Riley, Chief of the Bureau, as
due not to an actual increase in the
number of patients, but to the activ-
ity of the clinics which have been
organized in different parts of the
state, and which have, discovered
cases that have been without medi-
cal attention.

REDUCTION IN sTUDEBAKER
PRICES

Sweeping reductions. In the, prices
of all closed cars just announced by
the Studebaker Corporations have
stirred the motor car. industry as
nothing else that has occurred dur
ing the New York Silver Anniver-
sary Automobile Show, by reason of
their effect on cars in all price
ranges.
Two important cuts in price were
those of the Big Six Sedan and Der
line, largest of Studebaker products,
the two cars which have been
credited by nGtables visiting the
show as having been responsible for
wide cuts in price announced by
several cars in the so-called $4,000
and upward class.
Most important Of the matters of
interest which have developed at
the show this year have been price
reductions made during the week, in
this effort to cover the gap beneath
the quality and character of Stude
baker cars on all three classes. I

81 Certain wet interests, says the

modification of the prohibition en-
forcement statutes, are looking for a

Their search is preliminary to

duplicate in the United States some
of the wet victories recently achiey-
ed in Canada.
From an unimpeachable source 1t
is learned that liberals" in all parts

HILL FIzZLES AGAIN

One John Philip Hill, speaking for
the Third District consumption,
made a fruitless effort in Con-
gress recently against the appro-
priation for the enforcement OF
prohibition. He showed himself in
his true light when he made an
effort against the government using
funds to check his friends from the
manufacture and sale Of liquor. No
doubt Mr.. Hill is in position to
know much of the illicit traffic
in liquors. We do not know man
anywhere in public life who has so
many friends among the lawless
element as does Mr.. Hill. He
particularly objected to the appro-
priation Of $4,000 for educational
purposes and undertook to say that
the prohibition unit would have the
nation placarded with certain state
ments. 1t might be we'll If our
friends understand that Mr.. Hills
suggestion for placards will receive
about as much attention from the
prohibition unit as his speech
received from his fellow members in
Congress. In Mr.. Hill voting against
appropriating money to enforce the
law, he takes the stand naturally
expected of one who has so little
regard for the adopted policy of his
country. Cleveland, Ohio, Plain
