Revenue Office
Reports No Rush
OF Tuxpoyers Yet

The invasion of tardy and
harassed Federal income taxpay-
ers on the local Office of the In
Iternal Revenue Service has not
developed SO far this year.
The service is congratulating
itself that its do-it-yourself cam
paign is working. Eugene Trav-
ers, special representative of
District Director c. l. Fox in
Baltimore. said older taxpayers
come in for assistance, but the
younger ones fill out their re-
turns at home and mail them in.
Last year, he said, many re-
tired persons came in for help
because of a new method of re-
porting annuity income.
The service urges those who
come in to fill out their own re-
turns. But an agent is avail
able to help when the taxpayer
needs it.
Since April Is falls on Sunday,
taxpayers have until April 16 to
file their returns this year.
