Looking around, I see what Ollie

from blazing old-fashioned fire,
to a mellow glass of beer with

things do more to make home

who Files A Return?

O. Who has to file a federal in
come tax return? A. Everyone (in-
Guiding minors) who had $500 or
more income last year. Approx
mately 100000 Americans are re-
uuired to file - in fact nearly every
civilian worker or businessman.
O. Do servicemen and veterans
have to file? A. Some do, most do
not. 1t depends partly on rank and
partly on whether they had any
civilian income. All enlisted pay and
the first $1,000 of officers pay are
exempt. All civilian income and
officers pay over $1,000 counts
toward the $500 filing requirement.
O. If my tax is withheld from
my wages by my employer, do have
to file? A. Yes. Withholding is
only approximate and you must file
a return so that any additional tax
due may be collected or any over
payment may be refunded.
@. Didn't Congress recently eX-
empt lot of people from filing?
A. No. Congress reduced taxes on
1916 income remember our March
Is returns are on 1945 income) but
did not change either for last year
or this year the requirements that
returns must be filed by everyone
having $500 or more income.
O. Suppose my income was less
than $500 but tax was withheld from
my pay. Should [ file? A. Yes. If
you are single, file return to get
a refund of the tax withheld. If you
are married, you should file joint
return with your wife Cor husband)
so that she Cor he) can get the
benefits of any of your exemptions
which you do not need to offset your
income; in which case your refund
will be applied against any tax she
Cor he) owes, or you will get a
joint refund.
What Form DO I Use?
Q. What form is used for filing
income tax returns? A. Most wage
earners can choose between filling
out their Withholding Receipts or
filling out Form 1910.
@. Who can fill out a Withhold
ing Receipt as an income tax return?
A. This form of return is designed
for taxpayers who get all or virtu-
ally all of their income from wages
from which income tax is withheld.
Form 1910, instead of the Receipt,
must be used by anyone whose total
income was $4,000 or more; by any
one who had more than 500 in divi-
dends, interest and wages not sub
ject to Withholding; and by anyone
who had any income at all from
other sources such as rents, annu-
tiles, sale Of securities, profit from

business and trust funds.
O. Who can use Form 1040? A.
Anyone.
@. Where can l get these forms.
A. You get your Withholding Re
ceipt from your employer. You can
get Form 1910 from any collectors
office and most banks and post
offices.
I O. Some Withholding Receipts
are different than others. Which
can be used as a return? A. The
form of Withholding Receipt was
changed late last year to improve
its wording and arrangement. How
ever, both the old and new forms
produce the same results and either
one is officially acceptable.
Q. l understand there is short
form" and a long form" Where do
get them? A. Both names refer
to Form 1910. This form is called a
''short form" if the tax is determin-
ed from the table on Page 4. It is
called a long form" if the tax is
figured from the computation
schedule on Page 8.

Restore Controls
On Strengthening

The OPA announced restora-
ton of wartime controls over
custom slaughtering operations
on March q, in a move de-
signed to eliminate black mar
ket operations on meat.
The demand for cattle, par
ticularly good and choice
grades, far exceeds the supply,
OPA officials pointed out.
The order, effective April /,
is directed toward protection of
legitimate operators who have
lost by black market operations,
since they cannot buy cattle at
prevailing prices and still COM
ply with OPA regulations, it
was stated.
The new order prohibits any,
one from selling in any form
or at any distribution level,
beef or veal from cattle "cus-
tom slaughtered, except under
certain conditions. The slaugh-
terer must have had cattle
slaughtered at the same plant
before a similar wartime regu-
lation was revoked last Deem
Der 20. The previous slaughter
ing must have been done I'M
der a quota setup by the previ-
Gus order, which was known as
Control Order No. l.
The new regulation also pro-
hibits a slaughterer from per-
forming this service for a live
stock owner unless he per-
formed similar service under
the previous order for the same
owner while the previous order
was in effect. The customer
must not sell meat In any form.
The order is directed to all
custom Slaughterers, whether
federally inspected or not.
