MONEY FLOWS IN FOR INCOME TAX I 1 RECEIPTS AT OFFICE OF INTE NAL REVENUE COLLECTOR MORE THAN $3,000,000 STATE NEWSJF INTEREST •Brief News Items Of Important Gath ered From All Parts Of The State Atlanta.—The last day In which to make income tax returns, closed with a day’s receipts of more than three million dollars in the vaults of the in ternal revenue office to be deposited in the federal reserve bank. Deposits have been made by A. O. Blalock, col lector, every night during the two weeks when the returns began. Most of the money received by Mr. Blalock’s force was in checks, though a few At lantians paid in cash. The great bulk of the money was received by mail, every train entering Atlanta bringing in hundreds of returns. Mr. Blalock estimated that more than ten thousand returns were received by mail alone. A force of ten clerks was kept busy opening the mail and extracting the checks. "What ordinarily is spread out into three months has been accom plished within two weeks. Mr. Blalock said that he estimated that fifty thou sand returns would be made within this period, though the correct amounts from each person have not been checked, owing to the stupendous amount of work connected with the actual handling of the returns.

Beau champ, Secretary of the Centenary Commission, stated today that he and other Centenary workers at headquar terc have, through Secretary Carter Glass, pledged the loyal support of all Southern Methodists to the govern ment at this crucial hour and that in setting May 18-25 as a date for the Centenary drive, he knows he will have the immediate and hearty co operation of all conference secretaries, directors, field representatives and all workers connected with the campaign.
