The state board of equalization has
announced that returns on the state
income tax law by last week were
about 10 percent more than returns

state already had collected s23,93O

$434,000. s.'.ei.r n.
Members of the board said the plan
of having employees of the income tax
division travel around the state. help
ing people make out their tax returns
was mainly responsible for the in
crease in both the amount collected
and the number of returns filed. The
travelling employees will make another
circuit of the state before the April
