what you had to pay on this years earnings. It is not affected by the new law.
 The final estimate due January IS. and the final return that must be filed by March IS, 1936, have nothing to do with your 1e46 in- come, the tax on which is being re- duced. They are merely checks to determine whether you still owe Uncle Sam on your 1945 Leone, or whether you have overpaid, so that he owes you.
 The forms to be used for making March IS returns were prepared and printed even before Congress had agreed upon the terms of the new law, and contain the tax rates and shortcut tables provided by the 1944 act.
 Treasury experts expect that, in spite of this and all other publicity given to the facts, many taxpayers will continue to be misinformed, and will expect to find reduced tax rates in use March IS, and will pro- test that they are being cheated.
 So it is important for every earner to clarify his mind on what is hap pening. Keep clearly in mind that, so ar as taxes on your l945 earn ings are concerned, the new law does not exist at all.

VICTORY BONDS AND INITIATION

A ruinous imitation could do as much damage to our country as an invasion. The danger of inva- sion happily is past. The danger of imitation is not. That's why, even though the war is over and the Victory won, we are having another bond drive.
 To the millions of our men and women in uniform, who have be- gun the transition to civilian life, we owe a deep obligation in the matter of protecting them from an imitation that might easily null lify the rewards of the victory they so nobly achieved.
 As a practical bulwark against the tide of imitation, the Govern ment is offering bonds for the Victory Loan, the final bond drive
 By putting your money into these bonds, and hanging on to them as well as to those you al ready have bought, you will aid in the process of orderly recon version and protect the men and women coming back from the wars.-Sam Goldwyn.
