MANY LACK FUNDS
FOR INCOME TAXES
File Returns With Promise
to Pay Later in Fear
of Punishment.

Faced on the one hand with fear
Of penalties, or possible conviction
for income tax evasion, and on the
other with inability to pay their in
come taxes now, many Washingto-
mans have been mailing into the local
Office Of the deputy collector of in
ternal revenue their income tax re-
turns with no payment, but with a
promise to pay later.
This development came to light to-
day as it was learned, also, that many
are more fearful this year than before
of Government action since certain
prominently known men have been
convicted and given prison sentences
for evasion of income taxes.
The deadline for filing returns and
payment of the first installment of
the tax is tomorrow at midnight. The
local Office of the deputy collector, in
the Internal Revenue Building, at
Twelfth street and Constitution
avenue, was scheduled to remain open
until 5 pm. today and until midnight
tomorrow.
In case taxpayer now Is destitute,
it was explained, it is better for him
to file the return without paying any
tax at all than to fail to file his re-
turn and then later to be discovered.
Such a person avoids in the first place
the penalty of 25 per cent, which will
be levied on all who fail to file by
tomorrow midnight. In the second
place, he avoids the suspicion Of an
intent to evade the income tax. The
penalty for non-payment after filing
a return on time is per cent Of the
tax per month.
The number of returns filed at the
local Office Of the collector has been
gradually mounting, with some set
backs on account Of SnowstormS and
inclement weather, ever since March l.
The record shows the number of per-
sons calling at the local office on va
rious days climbed from 1888 on March
/ to 1850 yesterday. On March IL
there were 2,501, March 10, 1.484, and
March 9. 2,153.
Nationally, returns on the income
tax are far ahead of last year-in
fact, more than double. Payments in
the first IL days of the month were
$33,073,277, as compared with $10,-
377,625 in the same period last year.
Total March collections in 1888 were
$3.50, 200, 900. This year q much
larger sum is expected.
