MID-YEAR EXAMS OVER AT SCHOOL;
 NEW CLASSES

After the let-down of holiday va cationing and the release from the sudden stress of mid-year exams the Juneau Public Schools got of today to an orderly start on the final semester of the school year
 Promotions in the grade usually signify no change of teachers for grade school children at the mid year, while high school classes like wise continue as follow through courses of those set up last fall.
 Although several new classes were offered to students, pre-regis- traton was sufficient to inaugurate but two: Business English in place of Business Training, which was a semester course; and the com bination Home Nursing and First Aid course to be taught by Miss Stephenie Bogdon, public health nurse.

vitiorY Tax FindingsAre
 Made Public

TACOMA, Wash, Jan. 18.--Only compensation in excess of SIP re- ceived by an employee who is paid daily or for period less than one week Is subject to Victory Tax withholding, regardless of tn ( time employed in any one week according to telegraphic informa tion received from Washington, D C., by Clark Squire, Collector of Internal Revenue.
 This means, the Collector ex- plained, that employers should withhold Victory Tax from em- ployees hired for a few hours. one day, or any other period up to and including one week., only tax on amounts paid over SIP. If less than SIP is paid to any one em- ployee, no tax should be withheld.
 Important Ruling
 MT. Squire pointed out this rul- ing is of particular interest to con- tractors and other employers who have a large payroll turnover Or the basis of earlier instructions, he said, some of these employers had received information or interpret ed the law to mean that it would be necessary to compute the spe- cific annual exemption of $624 on ia daily basis in cases where en- ployees worked less than one week or less than any other established payroll period.
 The ruling that no tax should be withheld from amounts less than SIP greatly simplifies payroll main tenance procedure in connection with this new law. It enables em- ployers who maintain weekly, bi- weekly, semi-monthly or monthly payroll periods to use the optional withholding table provided by the government listing amounts to bt W4ufiACA0, III IllC CdoC Ol sflItudlly every employee.
 Exemptions
 The Commissioner of Interna Revenue has also ruled in the case of employers maintaining a bi- weekly, semi-monthly or monthly payroll period, that new employees or employees terminating their ser vices are entitled to the full ex. emption for the regular payrol period even though they are car. ried on the payroll for only par of such period.
 Thus, an employer maintaining an established semi-monthly pay roll period, the specific exemption for which is $26, would withhold only on amounts paid to any ney or retiring regular employee fl excess of $26, even though sucl employee worked only one day part of a day, or any portion o such period. t
 Extra Employees
 The weekly exemption of $1 would be used in the case of a

Will HELD

Tax Report

According to information received
from Lewis Penwell, Collector of
Internal Revenue for the District
of Montana, deputy collectors will
be assigned to certain important
centers throughout the state dur
ing the period from September to
September Is to assist taxpayers in
preparing their estimated income
tax returns as required under the
new Withholding tax act.
Deputy Frank A. Nolan will be
in Libby, at the Court House, on
September to assist taxpayers in
making out their reports.
1T is necessary" said Mr. Pen

with few exceptions, to prepare
on or before September Is, l943, a
declaration or estimated return of

inclusive. This law applies not only
to those from whose earnings taxes
have been withheld since July |,
l943, but to all others whose in
come and status place them IN a
taxpaying class"
Generally speaking, if a taxpayer
received for the taxable year 1912.
or reasonably expects to have for
the taxable year l943, salary of
not more than $2700 year and all
income from other sources does not
exceed $500, and he is single, he
need not make an estimated re-
turn in September. II he is married
and received for the taxable year
1912, or reasonably expects to have
for the taxable year 1913. a salary
of not more than $500 a year and
all income from other sources does
not exceed $780, he need not file a
declaration on or before Septem-
Der Is. This rule, of course, applies
to salary earners who are the only
ones subject to the withholding tax.
Practically every taxpayer who
has had any material earnings dur
ing either 1912 or l943 from sources
other than salary is subject to an
estimated income tax return to be
filed on or before September Is.
Those who are in doubt should file
their estimated returns, and avoid
penalties in case they have misun-
derstood the provisions of the act.
There is one important exception
in the case of business men. end
that pertains to farmers. Farmers
and ranchers are not required to
file a declaration or estimated re-
turn until December Is, 1913. This
provision was written into the law
because it was realized ii would be

their incomes as early in the year as
