Maryland Dead|ine
On Income Tax SET
Back Day 10 April 16
BY the Associated Press.

/ bS lLlS hSSOCidttO fItsS
/ BALTIMORE. April 5.-Because
the normal deadline for filing State
income tax returns-April l5-falls
on a Sunday this year. taxpayers
will be allowed a 24-hour period of
grace.
Benjamin F. Marsh, chief auditor
of the Income Tax Division, an
nounced that returns filed until mid
night of April l6 would be accepted
without penalty.
At the same time he reminded
taxpayers of five changes in State
income tax laws made during the
legislative session just ended:
Compensations up to $500 paid
to members of the armed forces and
the merchant marine are tax eX-
empt.
A dependent is now defined as a
person related to the taxpayer, hav-
ing an income not in excess of $500
annually and receiving more than
one-half of his support from the
taxpayer
A credit of s400, instead of S440 as
formerly, is provided for each de-
pendent of a taxpayer using the op-
tional Tax Form SOB. Credit allowed
for each dependent in filling out the
regular form remains at S400.
No return is required from the
estate of a Maryland resident who
dies while in the armed services,
although he may have incurred a
liability prior to his death;
All mastering out pay received by
members of the armed forces is tax
exempt.
All of the changes are applicable
on income received during 1914.
Other changes made in the State
income tax laws this year are not
applicable in making out the cur
rent returns

today as they totaled the collections
of their IS days efforts. Their total
a week ago was S2,807 ,074-4 per
cent more than the $2,700,900 quota
Oversubscription today is expected
to be so heavy that Samuel H
Kaufman, campaign chairman, has
arranged to dedicate the financial
reports and the efforts of the solici-
tors to the armed forces. High
ranking officers of the Army and
Navy will accept the dedication on

The campaign headquarters in the
United States Chamber of Com
merce was SWamped with late re-
ports Yesterday All 10 divisions OF
solicitors oversubscribed their quotas
NJ lNI,t
had not been reported until Mr.
Kaufman issued a special appeal
Tuesday to push the campaign total
as high as possible for the dedlca-
tion ceremony today.
The previous record for WASH
ington was S3000,000, raised last
wear after a longer campaign. The
l945 campaign already has set two
other records. The solicitors made
the quota for the first time within
the month designated by President
Roosevelt for the drive, and all 10
divisions we're uniformly successful.
IN other years some divisions had to
pull up the average OF the others.
Counties Win Praise.
Outstanding among the 10 divi-
sionS have been the four county
soliciting teams. Arlington and
Montgomery counties were the first
in the Metropolitan area to over
subscribe their quotas. Arlington
has not only oversubscribed heavily
and increased the per capita gift,
but also has reached 5000 more
contributors than before.
Mr.. Kaufman emphasized that
county drives ale made more diff
cult by the number of persons who
gave in their Washington Offices and
that the overwhelming success of the
county solicitors this year is espe-
cially significant.
