COUNCIL WOULD ELIMINATE
MONOPOLISTIC CONTROL ROADS
A. R. Roberts, a member of the
state .council of independent truck
owners, received a bulletin from
beadquarters this week that urges
him to continue to secure signers to
the petition which will again refer
the truck and buss bill to the people
in the May election.
The bulletin, in part, says:
"It was necessary, in order to
place this on the May ballot, to pass
a bill through the legislature, and
it was our Senate Bill No. Ill that
brought about this condition. You
may have some understanding as to
what this situation was when I
state that every effort on the part
of the council was put forth to se-
cure the passage of this bill, and it
was not until five minutes of mid-
tight on Saturday, when the gavel
dropped in the house creating this
as a law, which makes it possible to
have it placed before the people on
the ballot in the primary election in
May.
It is not our desire to repeal this
law, leaving the state without ade
quate finances, nor is it our desire
to create a law that would bring
about injury to anyone, but it is our
desire to eliminate the monopolistic
control of the highways, and sup-
ply the state with the necessary
funds. It will be the duty of this
council to draft a bill covering this
entire situation in order that it may
be offered to the people in May.
This shall be done in ample time in
order that copies may be forwarded
to you so that they may be discus
ed In detail in your community,
and that you may return same with
your suggestions and corrections,
which will certainly place the mat-
ter in such form that a law may be
created that will be acceptable to
the many thousands of truck oper
ators, rather than one that may be
acceptable to Just a few hundred."

FEDERAL INCOME TAX RETURNS ac044444442c00448cc0889809988800000844940098*******92
FOR YEAR 1933 RELEASED.
The 1933 Federal income tax re
turns were mailed on January 2nd,
and should reach taxpayers within
the week. The requirements for fil
ing individual returns are the same
as for the year 1932: i.e., each sin
gle person with a net income of
»1000.00 or over and each married
person with a net income of $2500
or over, or each person with a gross
income of $5,000 or over must file
an income tax return.
If separate returns are filed by
husband and wife, the exemption
may be taken by either or divided
between them. In addition to the
personal exemption, a credit of $400
may be claimed for each person
(other than husband or wife) under
18 years of age, or incapable of
self-support because mentally or
physically defective, who receives
his or her chief support from the
taxpayer during the taxable year.
Before preparing the return, the
taxpayer should assemble carefully
all information; he also should make
i study of the instructions on the
form. When the return has been
completed, all working papers should
be held by the taxpayer for future
reference.
The oath will be administered
without charge by the Collector, any
deputy collector or internal Reven-
ie Agent.
Although taxpayers have until
March 15. 1934, in which to file re
turns, Collector J. W. Maloney wish
es to impress upon each one the de
drability of compiling his Informa
ion and filing his return at an
earlier date in order to avoid last
ninute rush. This early filing will
permit all taxpayers to receive the
full, courteous assistance Collector
Maloney desires rendered by his
corps of deputies.
•
Corporations and partnerships are
required to file Federal Income tax
returns, regardless of the amount of
let income.
