Meeting' informally with mem bers of the Klamath Falls Park. A Reminder: Income Tax Returns Due Every citizen of the United States who had a gross income of $600 or more in 1958, including minors must file a federal income tax return on or before April 15, 1959, R. C. Granquist, director of the Internal Revenue Service for Port land district, said today. If the taxpayer is 65 or over by January 1, l'd.39, he is not required to file unless his gross income was at least $1,200. He added even though a tax payer is not required to file under these rules, he must file to ob tain a refund of any tax with held from his salary or wages. Granquist said there is one ex ception to the general rule. Self employed persons must file an in come tax return and pay a self employment tax if net earnings from self-employment are $400 or more. He explained that self-employed persons are those tarrying on a trade or business as sole proprie tors, as members of a partnership, or rendering services as indepen dent contractors. Granquist said the deadline for filing is April 15, 1959, but he urged taxpayers to file as soon after January 1, 1959 as possible and the return mailed to the "Dis trict Director of Internal Revenue" for the district in which the tax payer lives. He added checks or money or ders for any tax due should ac company the return and should be made payable lo the "Internal Revenue Service." Granquist advised taxpayers that if they have any questions concern ing the return filing requirements they may secure further informa tion by calling at or by writing to their local internal revenue office. If you have any other questions about your federal income tax re turn, telephone your local Internal Revenue otlice. and Recreation Board, the repre sentative, Charles H. Odegaard, Seattle, spoke of four possible means of obtaining the revenue necessary to continue the local recreation program. One, of course, would be to in crease the budget of the present gram under the joint sponsorship of the city of Klamath Falls and the local school districts. The final alternative discussed was that of making the program a joint responsibility of the city of Klamath Falls and of Klamath County. Any of these possibilities, Ode gaard explained, would be permis sible under Oregon statutes. He ex Dressed the opinion that the local board would probably consider these alternatives officially at a later time, and said that his office would give all possible assistance to the solution of the local prob lem. "Under your existing budget it will become increasingly difficult and eventually impossible to maintain your facilities and pro gram," Odegaard said. His 52-year-old organization is a non profit, voluntary service group which works with all agencies in the United States interested in parks and recreation. It helps such agencies with problems hav ing to do with administration, fi nance, personnel and program. The Seattle office serves Oregon, Idaho, Washington, Montana and Alaska.
