HOW TO AVOID COMMON
ERRORS
The period for the filing of in
¢ome itax returns covering the cal
endar year 19356 begins January Y
and ends at midnight of March 16.
March 15, the usual close of the fil
ing period, thig year fallg 6n Sun
day, allowing taxpayers an addi
tional day of grace, which, however,
it will be to their interest to dis
regard. To file early is of mutual
benefit to the government and the
taxpayver. Within this period are
filed annually millions of indivi
dual income tax returns, a large
proporton of which report income
subject to the tax. The latter con
tain a considerable percentage of
errors, which ig uncorrected by
the audit would result to the dis
advantage of the taxpayer. Many
are errors of computation easily
discovered on the face of the re
turn, which usually is accompan
ied by a payment of more than the
amount of tax due. Tn other re
turns it is readily discernible that
the taxpayer hag failed to take ad
vantage of the personal exemption,
credit allowed for dependents, or
deductiong from gross income to
which he is entitled.
To avoid these and other errors,
the bureau of internal revenue urg
eg careful reading of the instruc
tiong on the formg for filing the
returns. Additional information, if
needed, may be obtained at thoi
office of a collector of internal re
venue, deputy collector or an in-‘
ternal revenue agent in charge.
Algo, as a further aid in the pre-1
paiafion of a correct income tax
return for the year 1935, the bur
eau has prepared a series of short
newspaper articles, of which this
ig the fist, advising the salaried
men, wage carner, professional and
busihess man—in fact, every classi
of individual taxpayer—of his re
guirements are privileges as in
terpreted under the latest regula
tions, rulings and decisions relat
ing to the income tax law.

Local Legion Post Clears Decks to Help ‘
Ex-Service Men in Clarke County to Get |
| Bonus Mcney in Quickest Possible Time‘
| When the senate overro®e tne President’s veto of the honus bill
Monday afternoon by a vote of 74 to 19, it meant that more than
$200,000 will pour into Clarke county to ex-service men in the next
few months. ‘
But there is some red tape to be gone through with before a vet
eran gets his money. With that in view, the Allen R. Fleming, jr.,
post of the American Legion is anxious to help.
Application blanks for the bonus will be reeeived by the local
post and Post Adjutant Mayo C. Buckley requests that ex-service
men Who desire these blanks and any help the Legion can give, fill
in the blank below,
Veterans will find at the conclusion of this siory a blank to fill
out and mail or bring to the LEGION BOX, Athens Banner-Herald.
The blanks be immediately turned over to Adjutant Buckley. The
Adjutant and other members of the post will be glad to aid veter
ans who have lost their discharge papers or serial number or cer
tificate number to get duplicate papers quickly.
One item on the blank below possibly needs an explanation.
That is “Accomplishments.” It simply means any talent as an en
tertainer, such as playing the piano, singing, dancing, playing har
monica, blackface skits, or what have you. “Certificate Number”
means the number on the veteran's policy.
- Now that it's all plain as the nose on your face, clip the blank,
fill it in and shoot it in to LEGION BOX, Athens Banner-Herald,
so the Legion Fost can help you get your bhonus money with the
least trouble and in the quickest possible time.
