On December 81, 1912, our national
debt was 10000 million dollars and
he estimates that the gross debt on
July l, 1943, will be $4,000 million
dollars, and 100000 million dollars
by November, 1914.
The estimated deficit for 1943 is
81 900 million dollars and $4,000 mil
lion dollars for 1914. Mr.. Bell
brought out the interesting fact that
of the 100000 million dollars out
standing in government bonds, our
banks on June 80 last held 10000
million dollars.
This rapid and stupendous increase
in our national debt is being reflected
in every home. In 1941 less than 8
million citizens made tax returns.
This year the number will have in
creased to IS million, which means
that practically every home will have
to pay an income tax,
At the same meeting of the COM
mittee, Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury John L. Sullivan urged our
committee to issue statement to the
country calling upon all taxpayers to
make their tax returns as early as
possible. The deadline for the first
payment is March Is and if all tax
payers wait until the last minute,
the Internal Revenue Bureau will be
swamped with work.
Many are holding off making
March payments on the assumption
that the 1912 tax will be forgiven.
This is very doubtful. 1t may be
spread over 10 annual payments, as
is proposed by Representative Dewey
of Illinois, or carried over and made
payable as a part of the estate tax
when the taxpayer dies.
1t will be perfectly safe for all
taxpayers to make payment be-
fore March Is, as is now required by
law, as Congress cannot possibly take
final action on any pay-as-you-go
plan before that date. Any plan
adopted by Congress would take into
consideration the payment made on
March Is.
Let me remind my readers that

More Steel For
Farm Machinery

Acting on recommendations of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture, the
War Production board has allotted
more steel for the manufacture of
farm machinery and also has in
creased the quotas on farm machin-
cry repair parts from 100 to 160 per
cent of the 1910 base period.
The amount of steel for new farm
machinery has been increased from
1877 to 1877 200 tons for the first quar-
ter of 1943, WPB officials said. This
will go long way toward assuring
an adequate supply of machinery for
spring farm work.
The U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture had asked an increase in the
amount Of metal allowed for repair
parts. WPB officers say that it is
expected that every machine on farms
that can be used to advantage will be
repaired and put into good working
order. To accomplish this, more than
the ordinary quantities of repair parts
are being made available.

Of this figure 5000 million dollars is
expected to be necessary to carry on
routine governmental functions; 5000

of interest to note what the Axis

Federal Income Tax
Head of Family Exemption.

A single person, or married per-
son not living with husband or wife,
is entitled to personal exemption of
$1,000 for the year if he can qualify
as head of a family. A head of fam
I, lily is IAN individual who actually
supports and maintains in one house.
hold one or more individuals who are
closely connected with him by blood
relationship, relationship by marriage
or by adoption, and whose right to
exercise family control and provide
for these dependent individuals is
! based upon some moral or legal OBJ
legation"
Examples of head of family status
would be widower or widow who
maintained a home for a dependent
child, or son who supported and
maintained a household for a de-
pendent father or mother. In order
to meet the test of actual support
and maintenance as head of a FAM
lily, the benefactor must furnish more
than one-half of the support and
maintenance.
The term ''in one household" ordi-
narily means under one roof, but if a
father is absent on business or a
child or other dependent is away at
school, or on a visit, the common
home being still maintained, the head
of family exemption would still apply.
Where parent is obliged to main
foiy, h;c oh;15ro,, 1,,;fh
atives or in boarding house while
he lives elsewhere, the additional ex-
emption may still apply. If, however,
without necessity, the dependent con-
tinuously makes his home elsewhere,
his benefactor is not the head of a
family irrespective of the question of
support. Sir
The term closely connected by
blood relationship" applies to a per-
sons progenitors and lineal descend
ants, to his brothers or sisters, wheth-
er by the whole or half blood, and
to his uncles, aunts, nephews and
nieces. Irrespective of any legal OBJ
litigation of the taxpayer to support
such dependent relatives, moral
obligation to do so exists, and if the
individual is actually supporting and
maintaining in one household rela-
tives of this degree he is entitled to
head of family exemption.
A taxpayer is considered to be
closely connected by marriage" with
his step-sistersi and step-brothers, but
whether his right to exercise family
control and provide for these indi-
viduals is based upon some moral or
legal obligation must be decided upon
the facts in the particular case. The
same considerations apply to the
status of taxpayer because of sup
port furnished to his father-in-law,
mother-in-law, brother-in-law and
sister-in-law. First cousins by blood,
and cousins of lesser degree, are not
regarded as so closely connected by
blood relationship as to give rise to
head of family exemption. ~

Taxpayers Asked To
File Returns Early

An appeal for early filing of tax
returns on 1912 income was made
last week to 100000 Americans
by Secretary Morgenthau.
Mr.. Morgenthau said that, with
more than 100000 additional indi-
viduals required to make returns,
last-minute jams would swamp col
lectors' offices and consume valuable
man-hours of taxpayers, many OF
whom will be workers in war pro-
duction.
He also called attention to the joint
statement issued last week by Chair
man Doughton of the House Ways and
Means committee and Chairman
George of the Senate Finance COM
mittee, concerning the erroneous re-
ports that taxpayers will not be re-
quired to file a return for 1912, in
which they urged all taxpayers to file
returns as usual to avoid being pen
allied.
