MORE HEADACHES
 ABOUT INCOMES
 FOR EMPLOY FRS

The revised rates for withholding income tax from wages. provided by the Individual Income Tax Act of 1944, apply to all wages paid by an employer to his employees on and after January 1, l945, regardless of when the wages were earned, ac- cording to Clark Squire, Collector of Internal Revenue.
 Under the new law, any wages earned in December, but not paid to the employee until January l or later, are subject to the new with holding rates.
 On the average, about the same amount of tax will be withheld under the new rates as was with held under the old rates. However, since the rates were revised to ad- just each employees withholding more closely to his annual income tax, in individual cases the with holding may be either more or less than before.
 The Collector further explained that the Withholding Receipt, Form W-2 (Rev), for 1914 to be given by employers to all employees by Janu- ary 3l, 1945, must show all wages actually paid during l944, together with the amount of income tax withheld during the calendar year.
 If any wages earned in December are not paid to the employee until January l, or later, such wages must not be included on the 1944 With holding Receipt, he said. Inasmuch as practically all wage earners who may use these receipts as their 1944 returns file returns on the basis of income received during the year, in clusion in the Receipt of any wages not actually paid in 1914 would re- suit in incorrect returns.

HACK LONDON" ENDS TONIGHT AT
 CAPITOL SHOW

Jack London" stirring drama of a great author, starring Michael O'Shea and Susan Hayward, ends tonight at the Capitol Theatre.
 The story of London's life, be- ginning with his career as an oyster pirate on San Francisco Bay, through his years on sealing vessel, and his hunt for gold in the Yukon, until the day he settles down to write some of Americas s best loved stories, is depicted on the screen.
