Fufkf Dirt niiifl l'fitti ItlUdl Utf I liwll Mill Treasury By Mar. 15 Harold N. Graves, Acting Commis sioner of Internal Revenue, reminded all wage earners today that the new 1943 individual income and victory tax return blanks are on the pay-as-you-go basis and that returns are re quired by law even though most wage earners already have paid all or a large part of their 1943 tax by with holdings from their wages. Returns also are required by law even though estimated tax was paid on a "declara tion'' in September or December. All taxpayers will help themselves and the government by filling out and filing their returns as soon as possible, Mr. Graves said. An esti mated -00,000,000 returns must e filed between now and March 15, and every effort should be made to avoid last-minute crowds. Returns are required by law of persons who during the calendar year 1943 (a) were single and had $500 or more income, (b) were married and had more than $624 income, (c) were married and together with wife or' husband had corrtbined income of I $1;200 or more or (d) paid or owed a I tax on 1942 income, Postponements I or extensions are allowed for per-1 sons outside the country on March 15, especially members of the armed forces, and to the wife of a service man if her own income was less than $1,200. , "Since the pay-as-you-go system is still fairly new," Mr. Graves com mented, "it is not unlikely that some misunderstanding remains about the relation of 1943 returns to the with holding payments. "The explanation is really quite simple. Nearly ell of us have paid at least part of 1943 taxes under the pay-as-you-go plan. But whatever we have paid, the amounts were only approximate. The law requires us, now that 1943 has ended, to fill in a return and find out exactly how much our taxes were. Then we can com- "HAPPY LAND" The job of raising food is a vital one to the war effort.

It calls for the largest planting program in the nation's his torythe planting of 380,000,000 acres, an increase of 16,000,000 acres rfver 1943. "This vast production program will require the efficient utilization of machinery in planting, cultivating, and harvesting the farm products needed," says J. D. Blickle, Extension agricultural engineer at State Col lege. Although more new machinery will be made in 1944 than in 1943, it may not he available in large quantities when it is needed. Also the quan tity of new machinery probably will not be sufficient to meet the increas ed crop acreage and for replacement of worn equipment. This means that it is highly essential, to have every usable machine now on the farms properly repaired and maintained for use in 1944. "'The machinery needs' include in spection, checking, ordering parts early, repairing, servicing, and main tenance. The machines, both new and old, must be used efficiently. Efficient use may make it necessary to include in the program some plan of sharing bo that each essential ma chine will produce to its maximum capacity," Blickle points out. Safety in operation is also needed to protect the machinery from dam age, to protect crops from destruc tion, and to protect the operator from injury. This requires exper ienced operators, or the training of new operators to use the machines skillfully. J From all indications there is an increased need this year for a vig orous and effective machinery repair and maintenance program, due to the lack of normal replacement of ma chinery during the past two years, the shortage of farm labor, and the increased production goals for 1944. vou-ko system. we have an additional payment to make a substantial payment in some instances others will find that they have already paid too much and are entitled to a refund. "It would be helpful if everyone noted the wording at the top of the short form of return (Form 1040A), which says, 'Read this first: You probably have paid a substantial part of your 1943 tax bill through with holding or directly to the goyern I merit. You mav have underpaid or overpaid. File this form. It tells you and your government whether you owe any more, or are entitled to any refund.' The same principle, of course, ap plies to the long form (Form 1040). In effect, the filing of a return this year is a settling up affair, and the important thing is to fill out the re turn early and find out where you stand." Good Used Cars; r f !

A "war" tire is one made from reclaimed rubber. A certificate authorizing acquisi tion of a used tire or new "war" tire may be obtained by a truck operator from his local War Price and Ration ing Board, provided he is operating an essential trucking service and he turns in the recappable carcass at the time the certificate is used. Decline In Cotton Crop Shown By Report A census report, issued this week by Willie M. Harrell, special agent, shows that 3,887 bales of cotton were ginned in Perquimans County from the crop of 1943, prior to Janu ary 16, 1944, as compared with 4,554 bales from the crop of 1942. AUTOMOBILE OWNERS MUST REMOVE OLD LICENSE TAGS Members of the State Highway Patrol this week issued a request to car owners to remove the old 1943 license from the front of their cars. Patrolman Charles Payne announced it was a violation of the laws for motorists to retain the old plate on cars, now that the deadline for pur chasing new tags has passed. Cars should be equipped only with the new tag displayed on the rear of the car. 1941 Plymouth Special Deluxe 4-door Sedan with custom heater. 1941 Deluxe Ford Coach. Has radio and heater.
