This tax is one wbich--recognizes women as on an equarbasls With men. The unmarried woman or the married "woman with a salary must make tax return just the same as arfy man. Onjy the woman supporting her-mother or Other members of her family may take out $2,000 exemption.- k . - Under the law the head, of the fami ly is the one whose earning power con tributes to the family's support. Similarly a- widow with small chil dren to support can take out $2,000 exemption and $200 additional exemp tion for each,- of her children under eighteen. Thus it is intended that the law shall work no hardship to wo men having to struggle to get along. But each must file return if her in come is" $1,000. f . .. A man whose' wife" dies and w,hd is left with small children to , support upon a moderate income; may jtlso take lull exemption under the hew tax law and also claim $200 "exemption ?.f or each of his children-under eighteen. ; The widpwer under the . law 13 a tingle man: and -must: make tax re turn accordingly. Married men need not file returns unless they are -earning $2,000 or more. "This is as much a national. obliga tion as the reporting, for duty of a man drafted for service with the colors," ays C. Roper, commissioner of in ternal revenue.. . "As. it- stands,' it Is touch a matter of the man or-wo-inBii's own conscience. " It is for him or for her to determine Just how far he is liable to 'the' tax. He must figure his own income and if it reaches the figures named in the. law must make fcai! hful report upon it to the proper emthorlty. - "Phis tni ta Vfistinctly a-Twar meas ure and will be in effect during the war.
