No. 14.
THE revenue act of 1821 author
izes the commissioner of inter
nal revenue and his assistants,
whose duty it is to s? that the law
la properly complied with, to examine
all books, papers and memoranda
bearing upon an Income-tax retuiyi.
and to examine under oath persons
tae.rjr.gr Information In the premises.
A new provision of law is that no
taxpayer shall be subject to unneces
sary examinations, and ' only one
Inspection of the taxpayer's books of
accounts shall be made for each tax
able year unless the taxpayer re
quests otherwise, or unless the com
missioner, after ivestigation, notifies
the taxpayer In writing that an ad
ditional inspection is necessary.
The act provides that in the ab
sence of fraud, or miscalculation, the
decision of the commissioner upon
any claim presented under or author
ised by internal-revenue laws shall
not be subject of review by any other
administrative officer, employe, or
agent of the United States.
Written Agreements Binding.
Except upon a showing of fraud or
malfeasance, an agreement in writ
ing between the taxpayer and the
commissioner as to the amount of
taxes due is final and conclusive,
and therefore binding upon both par
ties. The act provides that no suit
or proceeding for the recovery of
any tax or penalty alleged to have
been erroneously or illegally assessed
or collected shall be begun before six
months from the date of filing (un- j
less the commissioner renders a de-'
clsion thereon within that time) nor
after the expiration of five years
from the date of payment of such
tax or penalty.
It isjirovided also that the amount
of income, excess profits, and war
profits taxes due for the year 1921
and succeeding years shall be deter
mined and assessed by the commis
sioner within four years after the
return was filed, and the amounts
due for prior years within five years
after the return was filed unless the
commissioner and the taxpayer con
sent in writing to a later determina
tion, assessment and collection. Ex
cept in the case of a false or fraudu
lent return or failure to file a re
quired return no suit or proceeding
for the collection of such taxes shall
be entered after the expiration of
five years from the date the return
was filed or became due. This pro
vision does not affect proceedings be
gun at the time of the passage of
the revenue act of 1921. November
23. 1921.
The act provides that under cer
tain conditions interest at the rate
of one-half per cent a month shall
be paid upon claims for abatement
and refund of taxes erroneously col
lected from the date of payment of
the tax to the date of allowance of
the claim. Taxpayers are no longer
invited to submit such claim. but
upon audit of the return they will
receive "a certificate of overassess
ment and a check in correction of
the error, or if an assessment is out
standing against the taxpayer for
income or excess profits taxes, .the"
overpayment is applied as a credit
and the balance immediately refunded.
Only 30 Cars Remain Unsold
in Oregon Growers' Hands.

Supporters of 'the move to obtain for

Tne winter shipping season for Oregon
onions is drawing; to a close. Tea cars
were shipped out this wee it, leaving only
30 cars unsold in growers' hands. Since
the opening of the season over 875 cars
have been moved out. The market is in
strong position and Oregon growers are
receiving 46.50 per hundred. The ship
ping demand h general, but is strongest
In this territory. 60 me of the local job
bers are asking as high as $8 for the
best quality.
The .eastern markets are firm with 1
light supply on hand. Shipments are run
ning about one-third lighter than during
the first half of February last year. Total
shipments from all states this season have
been about 19,000 cars as against 25,000
cars in the same period last season.
Jobbing prices in the east are nearly
eight times as high as a year ago. East
ern yellow globes range from S3 to $8.25,
with a top of $S.SO at Boston. Middle
western g:obes sold at 7 at Chicago and
red varieties 50 cents higher than yellows,
The highest shipping point price was in the
Connecticut valley, where the f. o. b quo
tation was 18.25.
The special features of the main crop
onion market season throughout the coun
try Included a light yield with scarcity of
large-sized stock and a strongly upward
trend of price. In general it -is a typical
short-crop season resembling that of 1919
and earlier seasons w
The season's esttmatea production of 21,
000 cars of main-crop onions is about the
same as the estimated production in 1919,
when 22,000 cars were' produced and about
the same as the average of the three short-
crop seasons of 1915, 1916 and 1919. To
the end of December, 1921, shipments from
leading shipping sections were about 11,000
cars, compared with 13,500 to the end of
December, 1019, a year similar in short
age of production. In the 1919-20 season
about 3000 car lots moved from January
to tne end of the crop season. Such fig
ures as are available would indicate a
similar volume of movement for the re
mainder of the present season.
Stocks available for shipment the first
weetc or November, according to reports
compiled by the United States department
of agriculture, were 6388 cars located in
commercial storage in 20 states. From
November 5 to January 14 shipments were
about 3100 cars, leaving some 2200 cars
to come from commercial storage from
the middle of January to the end of the
season, compared - with about 5000 cars
which were shipped during the correspond
ing period of three months last season.
About four-fifths of the stock In com
mercial storage was located in New York,
Ohio and Massachusetts. Shipments from
commercial storage no doubt will be sup
plement a by considerable stock from
farm s.orage thus Increasing to a mod
erate extent the amount estimated as
available for car lot shipments.

stimulating effect on the local demand.

sources, but no foreign business has de
veloped yet.
The market closed strong en family and
bakers grades of flour, and while no ac-4
tion was taken toward raising prices at the

will be an elevation of flour quotations
within the next few days.

middlings was announced as effective Mon
day morning.

Eastern Butter Market Unsettled.
. CHICAGO. Feb. 11. (United States Bu
reau of Markets. )--UnsettIed conditions
with markets unbalanced and working at
cross purposes was the notable feature of
the butter markets during the week end
ing February 11. All marl-ets opened un
settled but the price tendency on - the
eastern markets was loweV while at Chi
cago it was higher. As a result prices at
Chicago all week were relatively the
highest. -
Among the important factors contribut
ing to the difference between the markets
were the heavier receipts at New York
and further arrivals of foreign butter.
At the close of the weekhe markets ap
peared to be working toward a more nor
mal position. Fine butter was well
