Thousands of Federal income tax
payers-new and od-have taken
the gloom out of March by filing
their returns early, the Treasury
disclosed yesterday in announcing
that such tax receipts to date are

The Treasury reported that Janu-
airy collections were $133, 468, 1893,

same month last>year. At some COL
lection offices, the ratio was even
higher.
Although the deadline for this
years Federal income tax returns is
March Is, the returns were due tech
nicany on January /. So to avoid
the customary 11th-hour rush an
increasing number of Americans are
getting the annual chore out of the
way early.
In Chicago. for instance, Federal
Revenue office said that returns
filed between January 2 and January
% numbered 25,70l, compared with
1926 for the same 1941 period, and
the revenues amounted to 24,300,-
600, compared with $3.50 900.
In Baltimore, both returns and
revenues were up 100 per cent, and
scattered reports from other parts Of
the country told similar stories.
