FIRST QUARTER TAX DEADLINE IS MONDAY

Monday—whether Federal employees like it or not—is the last day for payment of gross income tax by those whose Jan. 1-March 31 income is over $1250. [Gilbert K. Hewit, Gross Income Tax Division director, said today that many of the Government employees who paid State taxes for the first time in January are complaining about having to pay again.in April. “We don’t blame them for preferring to pay annually, but the State law requires quarterly payments in all cases where the tax is above $10 for the quarter,” Mr. Hewit said. About 75,000 returns are filed on a quarterly basis, he said. Filing ahead of the deadline has been: “good,” he reported. : i
