Millions of babies were added to family circles, each of whom brings an exemption of $2(Mi in the parents' income tax return. Widows and widowers who lost their husbands or wives during the year are especially affected. They are single for the purposes of the income tax law and are granted only an exemption of $1,000. unless the head of a family. Persons who were divorced or sep arated by rr.utual agreement during the year also must consider themselves as single persons. The status of the tixpayer on De cember 81, 1920, determines the amount of the exemptions. If on that day the taxpayer was married and living with wife or husband, claim may be made for the $2,000 exemption. If single, or married and not living with wife or husband on December 81, the exemp tion is only $1,000. Persons who reached majoriity dur ing the year and whose earnings for that period amounted to $1,000 or more, or $2,000 or more, according to their marital status, must file a return and pay a tax on their net income in excess of those amounts. To avoid penalty, the return must be in the hands of the Collector of Inter nal Revenue for the district in which the taxpayer lives, or has his principal place of business, on or before mid night of March 15, 1921. Another Side to Rail Wages Editor Glacier : 1 am surprised that the Apple Growers Association should take such a decided stand against the railroad workers. When you mention wages being too high for railroad workers you are talking about the little band of faithful men right here in Hood Kiver, some of whom in busy season stay at work until 10 or 11 o'clock at night so that the fruit may be kept moving. I don't think anyone will say they are over paid. In fact it is well known that they are under paid, even now, as a whole. In some cases the railroads are kept poor paying excessive salaries to ofH eials, as was proven by the govern ment during its control. This might apply to some of the fruit associations mentioned by Mr. McCullagh. The fundamental trouble is that the apples grown here are just about 2,000 miles too far from the market. Eh pecially when other points have a good crop. In regard to that baked potato I ex pect any first class hotel would charge about the same for that spud. It's service you pay for, not spuds. In fact it is a well known fact among railroad men that there are very few dining car runs that pay expenses. They simply run them for the accom modation of the patrons of the road. Hailroad Worker. Mr. Henderson Tells of Son John Leland Henderson, pioneer at torney of Hood Kiver who is now lo cated at Tillamook, wns here last week on business. Mr. Henderson is very proud of the record of a son, Eliot Henderson, who servtd with the tin r chant marine during the war. The young man, following his discharge from the merchant marine, enlisted with the navy. He is now stationed at Mare Island. "Eliot was a lucky boy and the United States government has been good to him. He had influenza, mumps, scarlet fever, was ruptured and then was operated on for appendicitis, all in succession," sad his father. "Then when he got straightened out he hail tonsilitis and had his tonsils removed. He received excellent care at govern ment hospitals. Why it would have cost him thousands of dollars if he had suffered these misfortunes as a private individual. As it was, the government paid the bills." Commercial Committees Named President J. H. Fredricy, of the Hood River Commercial Club, has appointi d committee heads for the ensuing yeai as follows: House, S. J. Moore ; Roads. E. W. Birge; Finance, C. Vt . McCullagh; Membership, J. D. Gut tery; Entertainment, Al. W. Peters; Civic and Automobiles, F. H. Black man. The chairmen will themselves appoint other members of their re spective committees. Restaurant Prices Back to Normal The back to normal spirit is being revealed in local restaurant pnceB. Before the war prices are in vogue again, and in cases where portions were lessened during the days of high cost of foodstuffs, the old time size is again served. Smallpox Appears Here County Health Officer Edgington last week isolated a man found stricken with smallpox in a local lodging house Dr. Edgington is now waging a cam paign for vaccination. It was the lirtt case of smallpox to up near hire this year.
