(AP) The new Federal Income Tax blanks are on their- way to your mailbox. Then you can start scratching your head over a long form that's twice as big as last year's and twice as complicated. ' The internal revenue bureau, mindful of tho millions who'll have to file returns, hopes you'll tackle the job as soon as you can, and not wait until the' March 15 deadline. Internal Revenue Offi ces expect to be pretty busy about that time, whereas early comers may not have to stand in line to wait for help. And you may need that help. The Bureau figures that it's done the best it could in arranging the blanks the Tax Law being what it is but Internal revenue men aren't loo hopeful about the task ahead. There are, again, two available forms. You can use the short form if your 1913 income was $3,000 or less and all of it came from wages, salary, dividends, interest and annuities. Otherwise, you must use the long form. Not only are the blanks twice as Involved, but the instructions are doubly long, too. That's be cause of the forgiveness feature and the Victory tax. How's Your Arithmetic. If you can do a problem in per centage up to four decimal places you probably can fix up the short form without too much trouble. As Income tax blanks go, it's comparatively readable. And the instruction sheet that retries with this form is a far cry from anything of the sort in the ast. It practically violates all tradition by such straightfor ward notes as this: "If you are not In this group, enter your 1042 (correct) tax in item 9 and you do not need to read the next five paragraphs." The Revenuers did quite a bit of experimenting in trying to bring tho Victory Tax down to earth -or at least part way. In planning the short form, they lioped out two ways of figuring this tax and tried them out on some of the lowest paid clerks In the bureau. Tho one finally used on the blank produced more collect answers and got the girls' vote of preference. Two Choices Offered It brings the' calculation of tlie Victory tax down to one multipli cation: You take your choice of percentage according to your marital status and number of dependents. If you're single, you use .'t.7.r percent; or if, for ex ample, you're married ami have two children, you uscii.8 per cent. That presents a problem like this: SiSOO times XX. If you can do that one. you can start from the top of the short form and go right down the list with confidence that Is, If you lead eveiy line carefully. The long form presents its (amiliur challenge, calling for IH'iseveranee, at least four prob litems in percentages and a hand ful of. additions and subtrac tions. This lime " provides space for caculaling ami deduction for medical and dental expenses omitted a year ago. All In all. It's .in imposing doc ument. If you want to know why it isn't simpler, tho Reven uom will suggest you ask con gress. Gladstone Man Killed In Automobile Crash PORTLAND.

Troop Rotation Policy Adopted for Overseas Forces t WASHINGTON, Jan.8-(AP) The War department has adopted a troop rotation policy "which should assure" that by mid-1944 all soldiers in Alaska and the Caribbean areas with two years of overseas service will be return ed to the United. States, Senator Reynolds said today. Reynolds, chairman of the Senate Military Committee, re ported tho rotation outlook in other areas as follows: North Africa, plans have been instituted to return monthly a limited number of men with more than 18 months' overseas service. South and Southwest Pacific: "it Is anticipated that the present difficulties in returning men from these theaters of operation will be overcome In the spring of 1044, and that a system will be put intc effect to return a certain number of men to the United States." Europeans: "Up to the present time men in this theater, other than those in the air crews, have not been subject to combat fat igue and stress, and the climatic conditions do not necessitate a change, and therefore no system has been established for this theater for the rotation of troops to the homeland. As the situation changes in the European theater a system will be put into effect." Air crew personnel: "The rot ation of air erew personnel serv ing overseas in all theaters has been established and is function ing satisfactorily." Apprentice Training Extension Discussed Plans for extending the oper ation of the apprentice training service In Douglas county were discussed hero Saturday by Nor man O. Nilson, field representa tive of the apprentice and train ing department of the War Man rower commission, who confer red with G. E. Hloomquist, trades coordinatsr in the Roseburg schools, and members of the Roseburg apprentice commission. Due to rapid' industrialization of Iouglas county,: there Is ample opportunity for a 4nsldorable extension of the training pro pram. Mr. Niison stated. CAN YOU AFFORD TO WIN A LAW SUIT?
