RevenUers to Check
LocuI Tuxpuyers

Slated to start in this area is a
door to door canvass by Internal
Revenue department agents to
find delinquent taxpayers.
Taxpayers ere cautioned to ask
the agent to display his credent-
ialS.
Thomas M. Robinson, Helena,
district director of internal rev.
enue commented "While this may
be somewhat annoying to the many
fine and honorable taxpayers who
have complied with all require
ments, it is my sincere hope that
everyone will be tolerant and CO.
operative with my men, as the
purpose of such a canvass is good,
and absolutely necessary in ac-
cordance with instructions from
our Bureau in Washington, D. c.
Robinson continued: "It would
be helpful if all taxpayers would
have duplicate copies of their in
come tax returns available if
they have such copies handy, for
the inspection of the men when
they call, and any information
pertaining to any operation that
would result in other types of
taxes, such as estimated tax for
income tax purposes, employment
and withholding taxes, employ
ment taxes on domestic help, ex-
else taxes on jewelry, toilet pre-
parations, furs, ETC., transportat-
ion tax on transportation of indiv-
iduals and property, documentary
stamp tax on original issue, trans
fer of stocks and transfer of real
estate, or any other type of fed
eral tax to which you may be
Wage earners should have a
copy of their W. form, if poss-
ible.
This canvass by revenue agents
in the East resulted in about $50
being collected for every ST ex-
pended in obtaining collections.
Apparently a lot of people have
oeen getting by without paying
5axes despite the uproar about
nigh taxes.

Town Sparks Over Parking

Usually complacent town of Co.
lumbia Falls this week was seeing
verbal sparks. It's good to see this
town get mad about something,
just so it doesn't go too far.
Issue is that town council last
winter voted that parking on Nu-
cleus avenue, the main street, be
parallel.
Next a petition circulated by
merchants containing 100 names
was presented the council oppos-
ing parallel parking.
The town council left the park
ing as it was-at an angle and
was to consider the issue again at
its Sept. meeting.
Members of the council saw red
when last weekend new yellow
parking lines were painted on a
block of Nucleus avenue side
walks designating that parking be
at more slanted angle.
The council felt that they were
supposed to change the ordinance.
1t wasn't up to the merchants.
Result was a council vote Tuesday
of 5 to 0 to continue the ordinance
that parking be parallel. Signs
to this effect were ordered paint
ed, and Byron West, police chief,
was instructed to enforce parallel
parking once it is properly desig-
mated through signs and markings.
The town council wants Colum-
bia Falls narrow main street to
be sufficiently wide for traffic.
Merchants want more parking
space in front of stores, though
a number of them and clerks still
park cars in these favorite spots.
There is also considerable SEN
tirnent that parallel parking is
more difficult to negotiate than
angle parking.
Likely the whole irritation will
be settled in friendly chats over
cups of coffee. Both the council
and the merchants want better
town.
Further action by the council |
Tuesday was to arrange with two
delinquent rent payers at the town
owned housing project to work out
part of their delinquent rent re-
roofing one building of the prof.
ect.
A number of eviction notices to
delinquent renters had been mail
ed. The tough approach has result
ed in back rents being paid.
Adopted was a resolution assess
ing each so foot lot SLAB for street

in promoting the Identification of
the approaches to Rockville along
these two highways. The Rockville
Board of Trade will do all it can
to assist in this project.
Through it's traffic study COM
mittee the Board of Trade has
recognized the need for more traf-
fic regulation at the intersection of
Montgomery Avenue and Washing

pedestrians crossing the streets at
that intersection. The present traf-
fic signal does not afford such pro-
lection We will make an effort
during 1854 to secure additional
traffic regulation at this point. We
have also recognized the need for
a traffic light at Monroe Street

protection to pedestrians.

gram set forth may not be COM
pletely accomplished during the
next year, but there will be no
lessening of the Board of Trades
