Maryland Fails
ToGiyeReduction
On Income 7 ak

The Maryland Legislature ad-
journed today without authorizing
taxpayers to take credit against
the computed tax on the State In
come tax form as In the past two
years.
This means that for the same in
come and deductions this year as
were shown last year, the tax will
be double. When Maryland officials
had the tax forms and the instruc-
.tions printed-they directed that
line Z on the short form and line 33
on the long (the lines giving credit
on the computed taxi should be
used only if the Legislature acted.
Since the Legislature failed to
grant the credit, there will be no
reduction. No other changes were
made. The first $500 of service
pay still is exempt.
Deadline for filing the State re-
turn, which covers income for the
1916 calendar year, is April Is.
