1971 Income Tax Returns In Mail Revenue Commissioner, James 0. Mathis, announced today that the 1971 Individual Income Tax returns were being mailed to Indiana taxpayers starting this week. Approximately 2,000,000 pamphlets containing the Indiana Income Tax return and complete instructions have been delivered to the Indianapolis Post Office and will be distributed throughout the state within the next two weeks by the post office department. All individuals who filed a tax return last year and who have not moved will receive a 1971 return. Since the Post Office Department does not forward the tax returns all persons who moved during the year will have to obtain returns and v instructions either at the twelve district offices located throughout the state or by writing to the Indiana Department of Revenue. State Office Building, Indianapolis Indiana 46204. Mathis said, that the tax form this year was printed in two colors to help the taxpayer easily distinguish certain areas that had been the source of problems in prior years, and that the return had been somewhat simplified from previous years. The final due date of the return is April 15,1972; but Mathis urged all persons with refunds to file early in order to obtain their refund more quickly. * Individuals having no income, but who are filing the form for sales tax credit only should follow the instructions for filling out a simplified version of the form. Such persons. Mathis said, are required to fill in only three blanks on the form other than their name and address and social security number. Mathis emphasized the necessity fa entering a social" security number on the fam since refunds cannot be mailed until the number has been recorded on the file, to avoid possible duplication of name. Mathis urged all persons to make sure that the information with respect to income and exemptions is identical on the state return and the federal return since the infamation is matched on the state’s computer and if it is different, will result in the taxpayer receiving a notice from the department. All persons are urged to be very careful in filling out the fam and making the necessary calculations in ader to avoid mistakes that are costly both to the taxpayer and to the department in correcting them and notifying the taxpayer of his error. Last year almost 150,000 errors were made on tax returns — the most common being sipiple errors in arithmetic and errors in determining the amount of the proper exemption to which the taxpayer and his dependents were entitled. Indiana’s exemption law’s are particularly complicated and unwiedly, Mathis said, and create the largest single problem in administering Indiana’s Incone Tax law. The difficulty arises, Mathis said, from the floating exemption fa both the taxpayer and spouse depending upon his a her income. A wife, fa example, that has no income receives an exemption of $500; if she has separate income between SSOO and SI,OOO she receives an additional exemption amounting to her income; if however, her income is in excess of SI,OOO her additional exemption is limited to SSOO.

Pour the amount needed into a small pan or ladle and warm slowly over a table warmer of the lowest heat of range. Don’t get the spirits too hot or they may ignite befae ready. For a brighter flame, sprinkle sweet foods with a little sugar a savory foods with a few grains of salt before igniting. The spirits can be warmed in a ladle a small pan and poured flaming over foods. Or, if you are blazing a dish that’s already hot and has little liquid in the pan, pour the warmed spirits right into the pan and ignite.

Today's Army Wants To Join You After Graduation High school students who are thinking of joining the armyshould look now, but go later. That’s the word from Lieutenant Colonel Harry C. Fisher, Jr., the area’s top recruiter. He says, ‘‘The nation is rapidly moving toward an allvolunteer army in which there is no substitute fa a high school diploma.” “At the same time, high school students can do themselves a favor by finding what the army has to offer some months before they graduate. More options are open to young men who apply in advance of their active enlistment. They have time to study the options fully and decide what suits them best.” To help insure a wide choice of assignment, the army designed a delayed entry program (DEP) with high school seniors in mind. Says Colonel Fisher, “The senia finds what he wants, qualifies fa the assignment, and has it guaranteed in writing fa up to 180 days prior to active service.” DEP stipulates that there are no drills a other time commitments before the senior repats for active duty, so he can devote full time to earn his diploma. Just what can the army offer? “Seniors should check over the literature with their high school counselors,” advises Colonel Fisher. “And talk over DEP with his local army representative. For the qualified man with a high school diploma, today’s army has a lot gang for it. DEP simply helps today’s student get it going fa him.” Escapes Injury In Accident Miss Deborah Howard, 18. box 36 Milford, escaped injury in a one car accident at 3:50 p.m. Saturday.
