Council Reads Bids for Construction
 Of School Addition

Bids on the construction of five-room addition to the Seward Public School building were open ed at Mondays City Council meet ing.
 Three bids were submitted. It is reported, however, that there has been a delay in getting final ap- proval on the bond issue, and it was not possible to accept any of the three bids. The bid of an An chorage contracting firm, Sullens & Hass, Inc, was rejected on the grounds that their bid of $105,O56- 20 was too high.
 The two remaining bids were submitted by local contractors. A figure of $98,397.2O was submitted by Jim Cameron. The lowest bid of the three was that of $93,89756 submitted by the James Construc- tion Company of Seward, of which Ray James is president and Rich ard Biesner is vice-president.
 The architect who furnished the plans for the addition, William A. Manley of Anchorage, was present at the opening of the bids. After the bids were read, the meeting was closed to the public, including news representatives.

Sonuforium in Need Of Chairs

The Seward Sanatorium is send ing out a call for chairs. Many of the patients are able to spend an hour or two of each day sitting up out of bed, but there are not enough chairs to furnish ward. The Red Cross chapter is negotiating for Army surplus chairs, but since the ones in question are located in Kodiak it may be some time be- fore they can be acquired-if at all. Even if they are obtained the number will fall far short of the need for them at the hospital.
 If you have a chair that you are not using, straight chair. folding chair, arm chair or rocking chair, bring it to the Seward Seaport Record office, or call the office, Main 168; call the Sanatorium, Black 4; call Red Cross, Madison 57, or just drop in and tell us about the chair, leave your address and it will be picked up.
 With spring housekeeping at hand, many people will find stray chairs tucked away in the attic or cellar that are taking up room, or that can be spared. Why not give them for use of the patients at the Sanatorium?

FEW PATIENTS REPORTED IN SEWARD GENERAL HOSPITAL

News from the Seward General Hospital is good news. That is-no business. After the recent scare over epidemics it is good news in- deed to hear that there are only nine or ten patients in the hospital. With the advent of springtime and sunshine we can hope that there will be less sickness all around.

Tues. DeadIine For Estimates
 On Income Tax

According to M. r. Mullaney, Tax Commissioner of the Territory of Alaska, many people must file Declarations of Estimated Alaska Net Income Tax for the year 1949 and make their first quarterly pay ment on the basis of those declara- tions.
 Taxpayers with taxable income from sources not covered by with holding, such as Federal employees, investors, businessmen, doctors, lawyers, storekeepers, members of the armed forces, domestic and ag- ricultural workers, clergymen, etc, must file declarations on or before March IS, l949 and pay at that time either the full amount of antici- pated income tax due for the year or the first quarterly installment. Farmers may elect to wait until January 15, 1850 before they file.
 The 1949 declaration forms, Dep tax Form 600 ESD, are printed slips similar in appearance and general contents to the forms used by the Internal Revenue Service Federal Government. Attached to the form are instructions and a blank for the taxpayers copy. They have been mailed to all persons of record on the Tax Register of the Department of Taxation. Taxpay- CTS who are required to file and who do not receive declarations may obtain copies from Divisional or Area Tax Collectors of the De- partment of Taxation or by writing direct to the Department of Taxa ton, Box 651, Juneau, Alaska.
 Even though you do not receive forms through the mails or other wise, liability still exists and every effort must be made to obtain forms.
 A taxpayer who is delinquent in filing his declaration or in making payment will not be penalized inn mediately, but will be granted every opportunity to show a req sonable cause for delinquency.
 In making an estimate of prob able 1949 tax this early, taxpayers may feel that they are unable to make an accurate estimate because of possible changes that may oc- cur before the close of the current year. It is not required however to be absolutely accurate, your best estimate will be accepted for the first filing and adjustments may be made during the year. Taxpay- CTS who have been filing Declara- tions of Estimated Income with the Internal Revenue (Federal Gov- ernment need only to use ten per cent 00%) of the amount SO de- clared and this amount will suf- flee as an estimate in filing dec larations with the Department of Taxation.
