THE 3IORXIXG OltEGOXIAX, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1919. ING0IV1E TAX BLANKS ARE DDE HERE SOON Revenue Bill Expected to Re ceive Passage This Week. SEVERAL CHANGES MADE Extension of Time Limit to April 15 Expected Because of Delay in Congressional Action. Blanks on which to make income and other Federal tax returns are ex pected soon in Portland, following word from WasWngton that the 16,000, 000,000 revenue bills has' been agreed upon by the conference committee and will be presented to both houses of Congress for formal passage this week. Little opposition !s expected to the present form of the bill, which goes to the House today and to the Senate Friday. Tax returns, blanks for which probably Trill be ready within the next week or ten days, must be filed within 60, days after final passage of the bill, it is expected. The former limit on the time of filing was March 1, but because of the delayed measure it is expected the limit will be extended to April 15 or thereabouts. The new bill will put the limit, under normal conditions, at March 15, it is said. Change in Payment Made. 1 A change in the method of payment of the various tajces also is provided In the measure, as agreed upon by the Senate. Instead of forcing the entire payment before June 15 four install ments may be made. The first -5 per cent will be made at time of filing re turn, the second 25 per cent three months later, the third six months after filing- return and the fourth nine months after filing. This will allow practically the entire year for the par tial payments. Tripling of the normal tax on in comes with correspondingly big in creases in surtaxes was agreed upon by the Senate committee. But few changes are expected in the final draft of the bill. Exemptions on the indi vidual Income tax will remain the same as last year $1000 for the sin gle person and $2000 for those mar ried. The normal individual income tax, instead of being 2 and 4 per cent, will be 6 and 12 per cent. The 6 per cent is normal on amounts up to $4000 above the exemption $5000 for unmar ried and $6000 for the married. At this mark the 12 per cent normal tax be comes effective. Tax Is Graduated. Surtaxes start at $5000 income the came for Fingle and .narried persons. Between $5000 and $6000 the surtax is 1 per cent. It increases 1 per cent for each additional $2000 income up to $100,000. This would make the tax on an individual $100,000 60 per cent, of which 12 per cent is the normal tax. The excess profits taxes, which are levied on all corporation incomes over $3000 and over 8 per cent profit on capital and surplus amount to 30 per cent when the profit is not over 20 per cent, above which figure the tax is 65 per cent. Corporations also are entitled to a specific exemption of $2000. Partner ships must make an information re turn, showing distribution of the earn ings of Individual members of the firm. The tax then will be figured on the individual income. Methods Are I'nchangred. Methods of arriving at the actual in come will remain practically the same under the new law, according to Inter nal Revenue Collector Miller. Every effort to expedite the work of mak ing returns and collecting the new taxes is being' made by Mr. Miller. Delay in passage of the bill will mean a speeding up in the work for this year. Deputies, who will help Individuals and corporations in figuring the amount of the income and tax are available at all times. Information, in so far as possible, will be given out the Custom-House office. Another feature of the new bill that will Interest Oregonian is the provi sion for a 10 per cent tax on fruit juices. If this is included in the final draft of the measure the loganberry .iuice here will be seriously crippled, it is believeja. FbrtldndYMCA- - rfan Overseas BY W. A. ELIOT. PARIS. A most interesting experi ence so far was at the Orly Aviation Acceptance Part? No. 1, where the 660th Aero Squadron has been stationed since May 30. There was a mutual pleasure in meeting the Oregon boys in this camp. "We are doing aeroplane repair work and like it fine, was the word of Pr vate O. B. Clark, of 959 East Burnside street, a former student ol the Benson Polytechnic school. Private Robert R. Puckett, Nineteenth and Alder streets, Eugene, said: "We have had a good time in Paris. The people treat us irreat. First-Class Private A. J. An- bonich, of Astoria, was with the Ham mond Lumber Company before entering the service and Private James C. Bettis was a junior in Oregon Agricultural College, from Coburg, while Corporal George Pierce, of Madris, is the pub lisher of the Madris "Pioneer." Pri- Superfluous Hair.

JS is some bread. vTc-ivfl'!yfc vate Elmer Lorence, R. F. T.. Eilverton. a graduate of the Silverton High School and a farmer, has considerable to say regarding French farms and farmers. Corporal A, L. Riddle, of Prineville, says: "We have learned to "parlez enough to get along." Private Wilkie Watkins, of Pendleton, was sorry I didn't have a "Let 'er Buck" film. Pri vate Ferre W. Carothers, a mechanic of Oregon City, and Private Harold P.. Vinyard, high school student of Canby, were equa-lly enthusiastic. It's prob ably best not to tell which of the boys said, "The French girls treat us best," and "It's been so long since we have seen a real American girl I am afraid we will have a hard time of it when we come home. We sincerely hope they will excuse us though." Sergeant Joe L. Skelton, of the 13th Aero Squadron, was especially inter ested in the pictures. He recalled in teresting experiences that occurred during the five years he was working on the biological survey in Southern Oregon with W. L. Finley. Orly camp is 10 miles southeast of Paris and has about 1000 men. There were nearly 500 in the little hall, which was packed full, when I spoke. I talked for half an hour first with the colored bird slides and the men were so quiet one could have heard a pin drop. I am constantly surprised at the real inter est of the boys in our home birdj. Then I put on three reels of our Oregon movies and let them talk and comment on the pictures. The titles and sub-titles are so full and explicit, but very little else is needed and I have found this freedom to enjoy and speak out about what they see pleases them best after a half hour or so of listen ing intently. The camp is beautiful and the full moon was almost as bright as day. I left the camp at 9:20 in an Army motor truck for Choisy-le-Rol where I took train for Paris and walked about half a mile to my hotel. It was all most pleasant experience. And to cap the climax my chief, Mr. Evans, tells me of the highly flattering report of the evening which was sent in by Mr. Foster, the Orly "Y" secretary. More and- more "Y" men are wear ing the campaign hat with the Y -colored cord of red and blue twisted to gether like a stick of candy. I find it more comfortable than the officer s cap and It protects one from sun and rain as the rabbit cap does not. Madame, of our little hotel, showed me the picture of their family group taken before the war. The husband is 48 and has just returned from his four years' service in the army. He is do ing all the chamber work in this little hotel. The two girls are about 14, quiet little bodies. I seldom see them except when they are studying their lessons of an evening by lamplight.

GARMENTS YET IN DEMAND Urgent Appeal Made to Portland Women to Help French and Belgian Refugees. The Portland chapter of the Amer ican Red Cross is facing a crisis. Due to the end of the war, workers have almost deserted the big workroom on the eighth floor of the LiDtnan- Wolfe building, which has been equipped as a sewing-room and where it was hoped to complete the thou sands of refugee garments, in the quo ta of the Portland chapter, for desti tute French and Belgian women and children. And while there are 300 Red Cross auxiliaries which in war times repre sented many thousands of workers, production by these auxiliaries is down below 25 per cent of normal, dtfe to lagging interest, and 20 or more of the auxiliaries have disbanded. Red Cross work has been reduced to such a low point that with the thou sands of garments yet on hand to be completed the work accomplished is far from keeping pace with the de mands. The situation is more or less general over the entire country, although in some localities appeals to the women have resulted in bringing the attend ance up to normal. Especially at this time is the Red Cross endeavoring to complete an al lotment of 10,000 girls 2400 women's skirts. garments and Rumors, springing from some un known source, are that these garments are sold. They are not. They are the donation of the Red Cross to women bereft of everything they once had. Questions are numerous to the Red Cross workers asking why the ma terials themselves are not sent to France and Belgium and the women there allowed to make them. The an swer is that wherever this is possible it is done. "But," said Mrs. C. B. Woodruff, su pervisor of the workroom, "there are great sections of France where not a sewing machine, not even a needle re mains. As soon as these women are adjusted they will be glad to make their own garments. Now it is our duty and our privclege to assist them. "We are opeu at the workroom from 10 A. M. to 4:30 P. M. daily, except Sat urday and Sunday, and we do most urgently appeal to Portland women to rally around the Red Cross in this great emergency." The Dalles Work to Start. THE DALLES, Or.. Feb. 4.

Fifth Canadian Regiment" is spending NUMBER OF MEN OUT OF Federal Director Reports In crease of Unemployed. INFLUX FROM NORTH LARGE Shortage of Jobs Expected to Be Re lieved by April With General Expansion of AH Industry. Wilfred F. Smith, director of the United States Employment Service, es timates that SOJ0 men are out of work In the city of Portland. Two weeks ago Federal Director Smith placed the un employed number at 6500. the increase being due to an influx of men from Seattle and Tacoma looking for work hero becauso of the strike situation there. "Many of these workers are simply drifting through on their way to Cal ifornia and other points," said Director Smith yesterday. "A good number are strikers and we will not put any in this class on our register. We do not intend to participate in any wage ques tion, labor trouble or strike. We wish only to get the man and the employer together. "Just at the present we have per haps 5000 or 6000 men registered. Sten ographers, bookkeepers and office men number about 250 and I want to draw the employer's attention to the fact that we book this rlitss of men. There are about fivo candidates for every po sition."' By April Director Smith declares there will be no shortage of jobs for all hands. With the opening of the lum ber industry and the general expansion of af ter-the-war industry, coupled with the ever-increasing call for help from the farmers, he expects every returning soldier, sailor and marine, about 3S,- 000 in all. and every man out of work to be employed at that time. Mrs. Bruce Scott, of the women's di vision, reports that an average of. 100 women register at her department in the Lewis building daily. Of this num ber about one-half are placed. Mrs Scott believes that where many women replaced men. such as in elevators. clerkships, etc., the women will re main. "Most of the men returning have higher ideals and are more ambitious than when they departed." said Mrs. Scott. "I am under the impression that many former elevator operators, clerks, tc, will step out into better post- ions.- Mrs. Scott filled seven orders for tenographers and dictaphone operators yesterday. Two weeks ago she had 19 soldiers' wives, mostly with children, looking for employment. All are now placed and doing well. Captain J. O. Convill, of the sailors . soldiers' and marines' division of the Federal Bureau, returned to Portland from Camp Lewis yesterday, where he conferred with Major R. P.
