forms for making the return are
similar to those used last year, and
are now in preparation, many of them
already having been mailed to- the
list of taxpayers who-made returns
last year. Those who do not' receive
forms should apply without delay to
the office of the collector and the
filing of income tax returns is
obligatory.
110 Tax Redocrd.
For the year 1919, however, the tax
Is reduced, amounting to 4 per cent
on the first $4000 of net income above
the exemptions, and 8 per cent on the
remaining net income. Last year the
taxation was. 6 and 12 per cent on
similar Hems.
One important fact, little known to
the general public, is that the status
of the individual for exemption pur
pose is that existing on December 31,
1919. .As his relation to his depend
ents was on that day, so must his
return be filed. For example, if Mrs.
Brown died on December 30, her hus
band would not be entitled to an ex
emption on her account. But if Smith
wedded on December 30. he would be
entitled to claim the exemption
granted to a husband.
Another quirk of the rulings is that
if a child be born on December 31,
the father is entitled to claim the ex
emption amount for such child, while
if child attained the age of 18 on De
cember 31. no exemption could be
claimed for such child.
Normal Rate 4 Per Cent.
Exemptions to the amount of $3500,
paid to them by the government, are
granted to service men. Thus, if a
service man was discharged six
months ago. he would make return
only for such portion of his 1919 in
come as was represented by private
affairs, the money paid him for his
enlistment service being automatic
ally exempt to the sum of $2500.
The income tax return applies to
very unmarried man or woman
whose Income was $1000 or over, and
every married person or head of a
family whose net income was $2000 or
more. These are the exemptions.
The normal rate for 1919 is 4 per cent
on the first $4000 of net income above
the exemptions, and 8 per cent on the
remaining net income. The regula
tions apply to every resident or citl
aen. liight per cent is assessed upon
incomes of alien non-residents, when
incomes arise from sources within the
United States. There is no change in
surtax rates, which range from 1 per
cent on the amount of net income be
tween $5000 and $6000 to 65 per cent
on the amount of income in excess of
$1,000,000.
Exfmptiona Are Specified.
Exemptions are provided for single
persons, to the amount of $1000, and
of $2000 for married persons ' and
heads of families. An additional $200
is allowed as exemption for each per
son dependent upon the taxpayer, if
such person be under 18 or incapable
of self-support. Returns must be filed
. by all persons whose incomes equaled
or exceeded 1000 or $2000. according
to the status of the individual, whether
single or the head of a family. Not
more than $1000 fine is fixed as the
penalty for failure to make a return.
. A head of a family is defined as
"a person who supports and main
tains one or more individuals closely
connected with him by blood relation
ship, relationship by marriage or by
adoption and whose right to exercise
family control and provide for these
dependencies is based on some moral
or legal obligation." A single person
is head of a family if he or she is the
cole support of relatives living in the
same house with him or her and if he
or she exercises control of household
affairs. The words "sole support" are
used in the sense that there is no
other person to whom the dependents
may look for support. Income from
other sources, such as dividends from
stocks, interest on bonds, pensions,
etc., if meager enough still to leave
the recipient dependent does not pre
clude a claim for exemption. Such in
come, however, must be included in
the return of the head of the family.
The following table, computed up to
the net income of $10,000, is for an
individual with $2000 personal ex
emption
more must make a return. If the
minor's income was less than that
amount, it must be included in the
parent's return.

brings him within the provisions of
the act." said Milton A. Miller, collec
tor of internal revenue. "In the case
of a single person, if the income was
$1000 or over, and in the case of a
married person living with his wife
on December 31, the income was
$2,000 or over, a return is required.
Income includes salary, wages, inter
est, profits from business, profits
from sales of real estate'or personal
property, and from whatever source
derived. It applies equally to men
and women.
"It is very probable that many peo
ple who were not subject to an income
tax for the year 1918 will be for the
year 1919, and it is incumbent upon
them to apply for the necessary
blanks, and any person "who made an
income tax return for 1918 who doesn t
receive his form for the year 1919
must also apply for these forms, as
failure to receive one does not ex

"At least one-quarter of the amount
of the tax must be paid at the time
of filing the return.
"There has been a slight reduction

Mr. Bennett also repeats his urgent
appeal to heads of business houses in
Portland and vicinity to make a thor

Mr. Bennett. "Already, the time al

O. w. Mielke, chairman of the

S. B. Vincent, publicity director, also
issued urgent appeals to business men
throughout the city to help In the

Right now there is nothing more

Talent as Composer Shown.
Carmel Sullivan Power, well known
as a harp soloist in this ana otner
Oregon cities, has of late developed
remarkable talent as a composer of
music for songs of the short, dainty,
"encore" type. Two of Mrs. Power's
newest songs are: "When I Loved
You," dedicated to Madame Geraldine
Farrar, and "Butterfly Ballad," dedi
cated to Madame Alma Gluck
Madame Farrar was so pleased with
"When I Loved You," that she sent
to Mrs. Power a complimentary letter,
and autographed'the copy of the song
sent to her for examination.

Support and Ulttm Defined.
Division cannot be made between
two members of a family of the $1000
additional exemption allowed the
married head of a family. Claim for
exemption may be made by a single
person who does not qualify as the
head of a family, providing that per
son has others dependent upon him or
her for support, and exemptions will
be allowed for each dependent, if in
capable of self-support or under 18
years. The boy who sends his mother
more than half the sum required for
her support, even though he has left
home, may claim the $200 exemption,
provided the mother cannot support
herself. If she is self-supporting the
sums sent her are considered to be
gifts and are not to be deducted.
Living at "home, the son may claim
the $2000 exemption if he is support
ing hi3 mother, but he cannot claim
an additional exemption of $200 un
less the mother is incapable of self-
support.
The taxpayer is required to show
gross, income and net income. - Gross
income includes practically ' avery

It was night and the lad knew not
where to" go: he had not written his
uncle, H. O. Cartozian, that he was on
his way to Portland, and no one was
on hand to greet him. A trusting
smile had helped him over many a
rough place on hi - long voyage and
it did not fall him when he reached
this city. The taxi driver, to whom
he exhibited one of the precious en
velopes bearing the name and address

Greek and transported him to a Greek
restaurant. . This, of course, -proved
useless, but the proprietor suggested

Harrowing experiences could not
dim a sunny disposition. A veritable
fugitive 1t a land of terrors, this boy
has come away with a true apprecia
tion of the wonders of the new world.
The first night he was in Portland he
was so happy he could not sleep. He
had conceived his idea of heaven from
the teachings of the Bible, but he
was soon ready to admit that it had
never embodied half the wonders and
s of this free country. When peo-

I dldn t know there were so many
things left in the world," he said in
explanation of his burden of three
loaves of bread. "We understood the
war had used everything up, so I
brought enough along so I wouldn't
starve." We can hardly buy sugar in
Turkey it costs $12 a pound and
wheat Is $15 a sack."
Trip Reqnires Nearly Three Months,
Young Nerses was nearly three
months on the road to Portland. His
uncle had provided him with funds
and he seenred a passport from Sivas,
his home city in Armenia, stating that
he was bound for Constantinople to
attend the Turkish military school
and it was easy for Armenian friends
there. In the capital of the empire
he found many British and French
to assist him aboard a boat. He sailed
first to Marseilles and then to Paris
and Havre as a stowaway, for he had
no passport to these points. Once in
New York, the Portland address he
carried helped him past immigration
officials and he found himself at last
In a ticket office ready to purchase
passage to Oregon.
Ticket Clerk Suspected.
Now the "boy was wary and was de
termined no one should cheat him out
of his precious money. He showed
the address at the ticket window and
cautiously wrote the figure 20 on a
piece of paper, signifying he would
pay that amount for his tlcl et. The
clerk shook his head and the boy
wrote 30, then 40. The ticket seller
at this juncture took the sheet and
wrote $100, but Nersess replied that
he was willing to pay but $60. This
offer was refused and the boy stalked
out. convinced that ha would be
cheated If he paid this amount. Final
ly he returned and offered to compro
mise on $75, .but after learning how
many days it would take him to reach
Portland, doled out the desired $100.
Back came about $3 in change, which
young Cartozian gleefully pocketed,
satisfied, as he told his uncle, that
his negotiations had caused the man
to reduce his price and that he had
been given several dollars that right
fully belonged to the railroad.
American laiarlra Astonish.
He was much bewildered previous
to that time when on shipboard. Offi
cers insisted on stripping him to the
skin and examining him physically.
Again when he came through the Im
migration service headquarters he
underwent the same ordeal.
"They looked at my hands," he said,
"I suppose they wanted to find out
whether I had any. I thought they
were looking for secret papers or
guns in my clothes. .They kept ask
ing me about my health and that
seems queer when people are getting
killed all the time in our country."
The boy regards this health anxiety
as a sign of weakness and can't
understand it. Furthermore he is
astonished to find that ordinary
citizens in the United States enjoy
more conveniences and comforts than
the sultan of Turkey. He got another
surprise with regard to England, for
wfcen the British were defeated at
the Dardanelles Turkish newspapers
said the country was practically ex
tinguished. Cartozian lived in the hotbed of
Turkish massacres and only his im
mediate family and that of an aunt
survive. Between 50 and 75 relatives
lost their lives during the four years
of misery. The town in which he
made his home originally had a popu
lation of 35,000, but now it has a bare
5000, these principally people driven
in from other places. Not more than
ten of the original families, he thinks,
remain there. The old Cartozian
home, built nearly 60 years ago. Is
now nothing but a plowed oat field,
house, trees and outbuildings having
been totally destroyed. Other families,
less fortunate, have been unable to
locate their lands upon returning.

With the signing of the armistice the
Turks carried their depredations fur

buildings except the hospitals and a
few of the larger "civil structures. But
one or two houses now remain to

During the war the boy's father was
drafted into the Turkish armv and
forced to fight his own people. Pllos
Cartoslan, the elder, however, did not
desert his own. and used his position
to cover private and more important
operations. He aided in supporting
over 300 youths who hid in the hills
and caves near the town, these men
banding together for the purpose of
rescuing the women and children
stolen and taken to harems. Some of
the men themselves were helped to
escape into Russia through the Cau
casus. The town of Sivas was one of those
from which many inhabitants were
driven into the desert by their op
pressors. Whole towns would be or
dered to vacate for military reasons.
The men. with the exception of doc
tors and officials, would be . put In
prison and the women would be asked
to leave keys for tncir iiumeu. mc

sessions would follow mem snumy.
In actuality. Cartoxian explained,
these were auctioned off for the ben
efit of the Turks and ivuras.
Tooth Is Jailed.
When the refugees had traveled
three or four days on oxen they would
be unloaded and the animals woVild be
sent back for a new group of Arme
nians. Those they had carried would
be left at the disposal of the Kurds
and driven out on the dry sands, often
being forced to go past water without
h.lnir nermitted to drink.
The Cartozian family largely owed
Its safety to a friendly Turkish offi
cer. Pilos Cartozian. the father, was
able to influence those in command
to keep him stationed near his home.
His son had several narrow escapes
and concluded to spend most of his
time on the farm away from town.
Many nights he slept in the barn
there or slipped home late at night
and was out again before dawn. Only
the women knew his whereabouts.
Nersess was too young for military
service, but he feared that he would
be placed under arrest. This was no
idle fancy, as he learned after spend
ing 24 hours in jail and receiving a
beating.
He was riding in from the country
one day on a donkey when the son of
the chief of police saw the animal and
became frightened. In his efforts to
get away he fell in a mud puddie.
Nersess was ordered to halt, but con
cluded to ignore this advice until sev
eral shots changed his mind. He was
then arrested and spent the night
under lock and key.
