than $2,700 for a single person or
$500 for married couple. Per-
sons with wages Of more than these

Der IS or December Is, as the case
may be, and pay the estimated tax
in equal installments over the re-
manning quarters of the year.
Where taxpayer files his income
tax return on fiscal year basis in
stead of the calendar year basis, his
dates for filing the declaration and
paying the installmentS of esti-
mated tax will be the 18th day OF
the last month Of the first, second,
third, and fourth quarters of the
fiscal year, instead of April Is, June
Is, September Is, and December Is,
respectively.
Farmers who receive more than
80 per cent Of their income from
farming may, if they desire, post
pone the filing of declarations for
1914 until December is. However, If
they do wait until December IS, the
entire amount Of the estimated tax
must be paid at that time.
Taxpayers, including members OF
the armed forces, who are outside
of the continental United States on
April IS, viii have the usual extern
sions or postponements.

Maine R. r.
Revenue Up

Portland, Me-, April 6-CUP)-
Passenger traffic revenue in 1913
on the Maine Central Railroad
totaled 1881, 1903, a 1905 per cent
increase over 1912 and the highest
since 1927, according to the rail-
roads 83rd annual report.
The railroad said last night that
the increase resulted from a "con-
siderable movement of armed forces,
large increase in civilian travel
resulting from restrictions conse-
quent on war conditions in gasoline
rationir1g and travel between camps
and homes by furloughed men and
their families" The report also in
timated that the road expected to
hold some Of the increased passeng-
er travel in the postwar period.
The roads freight revenue in 1943
showed an increase of 1873 over that
of 1912 and was the largest for any
year since 1880.
Seven new records of operating
efficiency were established by the
road in 1913. The new record fig
ures are: average net tons per train,
TOT; average car miles per day, 37.2;
Grosstons per train. 1877; gross ton
miles per train hour, 21,879; pound
coal per 1000 gross ton miles, 1O6;
net ton miles per car day, 672; and
revenue tons per loaded car mile,
27.6.
The report showed that the rail-
road reduced it's funded debt by
$857,5O0 and also paid off $722,956
in installments for purchases of 10
comotives and cars in 1913. The road
also purchased property and fran
chises of the Portland & Ogdens-
burg railroad, resulting in a fixed
charges saving of $43,255 annually.

During the First World War the
average secret agent got somewhere
between 81 900 and $1,000 year for
his, or her, subrosa labors. Enough
