Taxpayers Must
File Income Tax
Forms By March Is
Deputy Collectors Will Be In
Rockville On February
oath and 26th

For the information and guidance
of all taxpayers, and in accord with
Internal Revenue regulations, tax
payers are advised that the Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue desires all
income tax returns to be filed on or
before the due date, March Is, 1886.
Deputy collectors will be at the
Farmers Banking and Trust Company
on February "a and 26 to assist in
making out returns.
Extensions for the filing of returns
can and will be granted only in ex-
tremely meritorious cases. The reas-
ons for extensions must be definitely
stated and supported by the affidavit
of the taxpayer before Notary Pub
lie. Illness of such a nature as to
make the return in time impossible
for the taxpayer, and unavoidable alb
sence from the State, will warrant
extension.
Corporations are advised that if an
extension is desired the request for
the same must be made by some
officer of the corporation, supported
by an affidavit before a Notary Pub
lie.
Accountants are advised that any
request for extension must be in fact
the request of the taxpayer, and not
the request of the accountant; and
this request must be over the sigma
ture of the applicant and under aft
davit, unless such signature for salts
factory reasons cannot be obtained, in
which event, such request must be
signed by a duly authorized repre-
sentative of said taxpayer, and like
wise supported by affidavit. Account
ants are further advised that they
should Immediately communicate with
their clients and warn them that re-
turns must be filed on the due date.

Republicans Told
To Offer Youth
Some inducements
Royal C. Johnson Addresses
18th District G. o. P. Meeting
At Silver Spring

Republican leaders are going to
have to abandon their solemnity and
offer the enticement of "good, clean
fun" to the youth of the Nation if
they expect to capture the youth
vote, former Representative Royal C.
Johnson told Republican rally held
under auspices of the Thirteenth
District Republican Club at Wood
side School.
Johnson charged that the Roose-
welt Administration had ignored
every plank of the 1882 platform,
which he said was the best platform
put forth by any party and said that
the Roosevelt Administration will be
placed side by side with the Grant
and Harding Administrations in his
tory.
Wilson L. Townsend, we'll known
county Republican, declared that the
county government structure Cd
Montgomery County and other Mary
land counties is based on the needs
of a rural section and urged the
Republicans to prepare a platform
which will put forth plans for re-
modelling the county government to
do away with the present inefficient
method of rule by boards and COM
missions, with little power actually
in the hands of the county COM
missioners. Concentration on i'm
proved government in 1888 will win
them far more support than merely
to try to elect members of their
party to fill the present outmoded
posts, he said.
County Commissioner Paul M
Coughlin talked briefly, as did State
Senator Harry LeGore, of Frederick
Robert L. McKeever, prominent Re
publican leader Of Takoma Park, in
troduced johnson. John w. Cof-
man, president of the club, presided
and spoke briefly.

Adelaide PrObert
Is Eulogized By
Hospital Board
Former Chairman Paid Tribute
And Encouraging Report
Made For Institution

A beautiful tribute to the memory
of the late Adelaide Probert was writ
ten by Mrs. Charles C. Tumbleson and
read by the secretary, Mrs. William
John Thomas, when the executive
board of the Montgomery County
General Hospital, held a meeting at
the Hospital on Monday afternoon.
Mrs. Probert had held the office OF
chairman of the board for many years
and her active interest is felt to be
a distinct loss to the Hospital.
A report by Miss Frances Leishear,
the superintendent of the Hospital
showed among other items that pre-
natal clinic was held by DR.. William
A. Linthicum, of Rockville, assisted by
the public health nurses of the County
on January LIST. One hundred and one
patients were admitted to the Hos
pital in January, 81 pay cases and "a
free.
The following visiting doctors regis
tered during the past month: Dr.
George N. Boyer and DR.. McKendree
Boyer of Damascus; DR.. William A.
Linthicum and DR.. c. W. Hartley Oh
Rockville; DR.. Herbert Schoenfeld, OF
Washington; DR.. E. c. Kloman OF
Baltimore; DR.. Robert A. Sardo and
DR.. s. A. Nichols of GAINESVILLE; Dr.

|B. P. Warren Of LAUREL

Commissioners Are
Against Plan For
u. S. Laboratory
Board Also Opposes Any Form
Of Consumers Sales Tax
Legislature

| Declaring it would be Outrageous"
to destroy the residential character Of
the Rockville Pike, the Montgomery
County commissioners adopted reso-
luton Tuesday opposing establish
ment Of the experimental laboratory
which the United States Public Health
Service proposes to erect on the Luke
/. Wilson estate.
The board also passed a measure
opposing enactment of any form Of
consumers sale tax by the State Leg
islature when it convenes next month
to consider plans of raising funds for
the continuation of relief work in
Maryland.
In another step dealing with legis-
lative questions, the commissioners
decided to advocate general reas-
sessment of real property throughout
the State and to urge that the MAIN
tenance of secondary roads be taken
out of the hands of the State Roads
Commission and returned to the coun-
ties.
The laboratory resolution, which
was adopted by unanimous vote,
points out that the Rockville Pike is
one of the most beautiful residential
sections in the county and asserts that
"it would be outrageous to violate the
zoning regulations in this very desir-
able and exclusive community"
Requesting the Maryland National
Capital Park and Planning Commits
sion to use every possible means to
prevent erection of the laboratory, the
commissioners recalled in the meas
ure that on numerous occasions the
planning group had asked the County
Board to preserve the residential char
acter of the pike.
Properties in the area near the site
of the proposed laboratory are as
sessed in excess of 81, 20O,O the res
olution reads, and are owned by a
number of prominent figures including
Canon Freeland Peter of the WASH
ington Cathedral, Merle Thorpe, edi-
tor of Nations Business; Charles B.
Hawley, consulting engineer; DR.. Gil
bert Grosvenor, director of the Ma
tional Geographic Society; George e.
Hamilton, former president of the
Capital Traction Co. and corporation
attorney, and many other influential
persons.
1t was explained by Commissioner
Robert d. Hagner, who sponsored the
resolution, that need for immediate
action is imperative for he has re-
Gently learned that funds are available
for the establishment of the first unit
of the laboratory, which will be used
for experiments on guinea pigs, white
rats and goats.
In votirIg its opposition to continual
ton of the current 1 per cent gross
sales tax or the substitution of any
form Of consumers sales tax, the
board BRANDED such forms of taxation
as "vicious" and said they are par
ticularly oppressive to border-line
communities that would suffer losses
of trade to adjoining non-sales tax
areas.
Members of the board will attend
the joint meeting of the Eastern Shore
and Western Shore County Commits
sioners' Associations at Annapolis to-
day.

AS WE SEE 1T
By MoNTco

MEMBERS OF THE Izaak Walton
League and other interested organiza-
tons are opposed to the anti-trap-
ping" law in Montgomery County.
There will be plenty of lobbying at
Annapolis at the special session to do
away with this particular blot on the
county regulations.
The resolution, adopted by the
league, reads as follows:
WHEREAS, various members of
our organization have from time t.
time complained about the results of
the newly enacted trapping law, COM
monty known as the Anti Trapping
Law of Montgomery County, and
WHEREAS, such law has been
faulty from the view point of game
bird preservation which in turn af-
fects the control of insects on our
farms, and
WHEREAS, such Objectionable
species of wild life have increased to
a point of destruction to our property
and general nuisance.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
That this organization petition our
Senator and the members of the
House of Delegates to Immediately in
troduce measures at the special ses-
sion of the Legislature, looking to the
repeal of said law and enacting there
for one which will legalize trapping
under four provisions
l. That name of owners be placed
on all traps.
2. That these traps be visited once
in every "a hours.
8. That the legalized size of the
traps not exceed the standard No. 2.
A. Size of traps to be determined
by committee of four, Joe Dawson, ].
W. Jones, Albert Ady and ,Ceoke
Robertson.
5. That the regular game law
penalties be reported and applied for
the violation of the provisions of this
act.

MANY ROCKVILLE BUS users
are complaining about the lack of
heat of the Capital Transit Buses
running from Washington Grove and
Rockville to the Capital City. If it is
indeed true that these buses are not
heated, steps should be taken to in
sure adequate warmth for passengers
embarking at points in this county
particularly, when these passengers
are cold from walking several blocks.
THE SCHEDULED OPENING of
the Murphy's 5 and 10 cent store in
Rockville on Saturday should mean d
lot to Rockville. There is no doubt
that considerable amount of busl-
ness which has been going to the
and 10 cent stores in Frederick can be
brought to Rockville provided the
proper amount of advertising persua-
Sion is used. Murphy's has full line
OF goods, sufficient to tempt the most
discriminating county shopper. Every
new business of any magnitude will
attract new purchasers to the county
seat.
The opening Of Murphy's new store
will not appreciably hurt any Other
store in Rockville. New patrons viii
be induced to come to town and, or
the whole, Rockville business men will
gain. Any new store which attracts
new customers to Rockville cannot
help but aid the general pickup Of
county-seat business.
