SPANS POLICY is TO
KEEP OUT OF THE WAR

Madrid - Spain's present poll
hcy was clearly defined this week
lin an article in the weekly Ell
Espanol which established these
two points:
l. Spain is out of the war be-
cause the government, "despite
movements of sympathy or COM
passion in certain sections of the
population" kept Spain a non
beligerent ''by its own free de-
cision.'' The inference was that
Spain will stay out of the war.

Income Tax Blanks Are
Now Being Sent To Public

Washington, August "a = Guy
T. Helvering, Commissioner of
Internal Revenue, recently an
nounced that forms and printed
instructions for the filing of es-
timated income and Victory tax
declarations on or before next
September Is, as required by the
new Current Tax Payment Act,
are now being distributed to in
dividual taxpayers by the Collec-
tors of Internal Revenue.
Filing of the declarations will
be the second major step under
the Current Tax Payment Act in
converting the Federal individual
income tax from the old delayed
payment method to a "pay-as-
you-go" basis. The first step was
the Inauguration July l of the
new withholding plan, under
which the Victory tax, normal in
come tax and first bracket sur
tax are paid by millions of per-
sons through deductions from
their wages and salaries.
The purpose of the declarations
is to make current in their tax
payments all those individuals
whose income and Victory tax
liability will not be fully covered
by collections through withhold
ing and other credits.
Experts Of the Bureau of Inter
nal Revenue have greatly simpli-
fled for the average taxpayer the
task of filing the declarations.
A form and set Of instructions
for use in estimating the tax on
incomes up to $4,000 rival for
simplicity, revenue officials point
ed out, the familiar Give minute
income tax return" which made
its debut in 1912. The computa-
tons and entries which this SIM
plified declaration method re-
quires should be matters of about
five minutes for a large portion
of the taxpayers by whom dec
larations will have to be submit
ted, the officials said. For those
who desire to make more pre-
else computation, or who have an
income of more than $4,000, de-
tailed worksheets may be secured
from the Collector upon request.

lar wages for 1912.
Where the declarations show
an estimated tax liability for

the excess is to be sent to the
