for returns. Beaman said the revenue department will find out who the delinquent taxpayers are when withholding certificates received from employers are checked against tax returns. However, he added this process could not be completed until about Dec. 1 because of the work load in his
office.
Beaman reminded delinquent taxpayers they are subject to a 10 per cent penalty plus one per cent per month interest. He estimated this penalty and interest would bring an additional $1,200,-
000. "
Department spokesmen says the law" provides penalties for overdue' returns even though the tax was paid on time. Beaman urged taxpayers w'ho believe they were not required to file the returns to do so at once. He said his department would be “as lenient as possible” in assessing penalties. He also estimated that the total gross income tax receipts for the fiscal year ending June 30 will be $167 million, compared with 125 million for the previous fiscal year.

VA ISSUES DENIAL Veterans Administration today denied categorically the report that $60 million in unclaimed premium refunds, awaits veterans who hold or have held World War II GI life insurance policies. The unfounded report emanating from Kentucky, VA says, has brought a deluge of post card requests for the non-existent dividends. VA said the erroneous report may have started from the recent cancellation of 63.000 undeliverable National Service Life Insurance (NSIJ) dividend checks, most of which date back to the 1948 special dividend which was paid in 1950 to policy&>lders or ex-policyholders for time in service during Wor ld War
II.
The checks, which
than $3 million, were returned to VA because the veterans had moved without leaving a change of address notice with the post
office.

He contended- and vigorously- tha the fi rm was leally part of the battlefield.
