facturer s special tax also may dp <»dtained upon the request of the office of the collector of internal revenue and branch offices. The revenue acts provide "that every corporation shall pay annually a special excise tax with respect to carrying on or doing business equivalent to $1 for each SIOOO of so much of the fair average value of its capital stock for the proceeding year ending June 30. as is in excess of $5,000 In estimating the value of the capital stock, the surplus and undivided profits shall be included. ' Every foreign corporation shall pay annually a special excise tax with re spect to carrying on or doing business in the United States, equivalent to $1 for each SI,OOO of the average amount of capital employed in the transaction of its business in the United States, during the preceding year ending June 30." The basis of the tax is the cast of a domestic corporation is "carrying on or doing business” in the capacity of a corporation or association. Quoting from the Capital Stock Regulations No. 04. "The words “carrying on or doing business’ must be given every ordinary and natural signification. ‘Business’ is a very comprehensive term and embraces whatever occupies the time, attention or labor of men for the purpose of livelihood or profit. In other words business necessarily involves the idea of gain.” Every domestic corporation must make a return on Form 707. even thought the law may indicate that it is exempt from the tax. The question for exemption is one for determination by the Commissions of Internal Revenue. The basis of the tax of a foreign corporation is "carrying on or doing business in the United States." A foreign corporation is carrying on or doing business in the United States if it maintains an agent or an office or warehouse in the United States, or in any other wsqy enters the United States for the purpose of its business. Following are the miscellaneous occupational taxes: brokers. SSO; pawn brokers, $100; ship brokers, SSO; cus tomhouse brokers SSO.

Another would enbody the regulatory features of a bill introduced sevf- eral months ago by Senator Freling A huysen. New Jersey. This bill was II withdrawn at the time because of a storm of opposition.

OIL FOUND IN WELL DRILLED NEAR DECATUR (Continued from page one) well No. 1, drilled by the Habegger company on the Joseph Andrews farm, which at present is pumping five barrels per day. Drilling on the new well was stopped this morning. Oil was found as soon as the sand was struck and it is claimed that oil can be taken from the well every : time the bailer is run into it. The sand is said to be much finer and softer than that found in well No. 1. When drilling or. the first well was stopped, no oil could be found before the well was shot. The new well is also said to contain a large quantity of gas. Representatives of the Habegger company said today that they were confident that a rich paying well ■ would be found in the new hole and it was only a question of how large the capacity of the well would be. Many local people are greatly I pleased over the prospects of the new well. The Habegger Oil company was organized here last spring and most of the stock was sold to Adams county citizens. Ezra Habegger is president of the company. The well was drilled by a Mr. Yocum, of Ohio. — McCONNEHEY BOY WHO WAS INJURED SUNDAY IS IMPROVING NICELY A report from the Decatur Hospital this afternoon stated that little John ny McConnehey. four year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl McConnehey who was injured seriously when struck by > an automobile last Sunday evening, is I getting along very good, considering the seriousness of his injuries.
