Jarecki Collector of Internal itevenue- • ••• • for ' First District of Illinois uals who carry 'sidelines" at home. They are required to report their income just tne same as people who are employed in an office or factory. If such income is anticipated to be in excess of $100. and the total income from all sources - Taxable Iaroint \ We know that cooperation on the part of citizens in re|>orting income correctly can be depended upon. You are taxable on the total amount of your earnings before your employer deducts the withholding tax social security, and any amounts you may authorize him to withhold from your pay for union dues, pensions, contribu tlons to charity or employee bene fit funds, payment toward purchase of government bonds, or foi any other purpose. The Federal tax withheld fron) your earnings by your employer i^ deductible as credit against in come tax liability, so be sure tt, attach all Forms W-2 indicating income and the amount withheld, in order to verify your credit, whether you file on white Form 1040 or yellow Form 1940A. "" Any excess of pre-payments will be refunded or credited to your 1950 declaration of estimated tax, ; if you are required to file one because you have income in excess of $100 from salarv or wage." from which there was no withholding or from other sources; and if your income from these sources plus any salary or wages is in excess of $600. Many individuals fail to report income from which there is no withholding because they think the money received represents a gift. Much erroneous informatior has been given as to what constitutes taxable income. This is true -- of those who receive tips such a t waiters, taxi drivers, beauty oper-" ators, bell hops, porters on trains, attendant* in clubs, doormen, etc Tips are fully taxable, because they are given for a service rendered and as recognition of such -- service. They are not gifts which are given for personal pleasure. The Bureau of Internal Revenue has made investigations on which -- to base the determination of tin amount employees in specific act ivitita receive as tips, and in such cases, it was necessary to assess tax on their income tax returns to cover the omission of such tips. In addition to the tax, interest was - added from the due date of the return to date of payment. In some cases this worked a hardship, but negligence in reporting such income is no excuse. Tips should be reported on a line separate from that on which salaries are reported, both of which should be included on the Form 1040 or Form 1040A (if under $100). If a taxpayer receives more than $100 in tips, he or she should not report on the yellow Form 1040A, but should use white Form 1040. Bonuses received by employees are also fully taxable and are given because a service has been rendered for the benefit of the employer. Others who frequently forget income which is fully taxable, even though not subject to social security payments or withholding tax are housecleaners who go out "by the day", as well as permanent household employees, baby sitters, handymen, gardners, and individto be at least $800.00. an estimated tax return must be filed. FARM ACCIDENTS ARE REPORTED DOWN 10 PER CENT IN '49 Farm accidents were down 10 per cent in 1949 over 1948 according to a Burvey announced by fohn A. Lake, director of safety or the Illinois Agriculturel Association. The IAA is the state Karir. Bureau organization. Machinery on the farm account •d for 14S fewer accidents. This mprovement was reflected in few- ?r farm deaths. There were nine fewer deaths on Illinois farms in 1949 than in the previous year, .hiring October and November, when there are an unusually large lumber of accidents from corn tickers and tractors, 1949 registered a 25 per cent drop over 1948. Lake pointed out that the improvement i*n farm safety was made principally in machines and iiand tools. "Farmers," he said, 'are developing a healthy respect for machinery because they know that a life can be snuffed jut or a man made a cripple for ife in a few seconds through carcessness." The number of accidents from burns, explosions, falls, 'ailing objects, livestock, etc., renamed about the same compared vith 1948. Lake has appealed to farmers to lo better in 1950 by (1) eliniihatng all hazards, and (2) by being •xtra careful in all work which ;an be injurious through carelessness. Million State Motorists Still Without Licenses NEWS FROM THE JUST FOR FUN RINK 6 . (by An-ne Gehri) Quite a merry week-end was had by all at the roller rink. With us last. Friday night were the newly weds, Air. and Mrs. Elmer Miller (formerly Mary Lou Heinz). Everyone offered them congratulations. Another couple, Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Barrett, of Libertyville celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary with us on Wed., Jan. 25. A birthday was observed by one ja *°f ADDITIONAL BENEFITS ARE DUE NUMBER OF FORMER PRISONERS Former prisoners pf yrar who lost personal property or suffered personal injury and lack of atten* tiom at the hand of the enemy in World War II may bp entitled to additional benefits, the Illinois Veterans Commission has Sported. A clause in the War Claims Act of 194S. under which thousands of veterans are to receive $1 sub-standard rations of the rink's popular skate guards, none other than Alan Swanson. Dorothy Weber played "Happy Birthday" in his honor. A1 bought himself a nice birthday present, a new 1950 car. Howard Jancis told a few persons that his definition of "Candy Kisses" is: "No germs. No nothin". All of us fall some|time or oth4r when we are skating, but we don't all believe the way Hank Burgett does. When he falls he believes in having company. Well anyhow he picked Toynette up! Ray Wolowic was a skate guard Saturday afternoon and enjoyed every minute of it. During robbers couples the girls were 12 in line waiting to cut in so they might have a chance also. In the even" ings however, Neva Raven seems to be his choice. » Mickey Le wis came back with Lennie again last week. With all her studies at St. Therese she hasn't much time for pleasure. Earl Kennebeck is learning to be a very fanck skater. He can do number of tricks now. Keep up the good work. Earl. Jack Smith won't be with us for the next 8 weeks. He left Sunday morning for school in Toledo, Ohio to learn how ^o become a butcher. February 14 isn't too far away, so don't forget to come on Tuesday night and join the "Match the. Hearts" contest. Secretary of State Edward J. Barrett has repeated his warning LO the motoring public to "get your >tate plates before the state gets you." ' There ar» still more than a million Illinois motorists driving with 1949 license plates," Barrett ?aid. "and quite a few of them "villLa •be paying mQre than the regu!a/le price 'or their plates by the tim<» they add court costs and fines to the fee.) There are always those car owners wiio have to be arrested before they realize that the calendar has moved forward ohe year, but this year I would like to see every car wearing 1950 plates by March 1. Persons who do have their plates by that date will avoid the embarrassment of possible arrest." SISTERS BI RNED Two Barrington sisters were in a critical condition in Sherman hospital as result of extensive second and third degree burns suffered shortly after 3 a.m. last Thursday when fire gutted their home on the outskirts of Barrington. Thev are Helen Hansen. 12, who was burned on the arms, legs and hands, and Kate Hansen, 21 a Barrington telephone operator, who suffered burns on the legs, arms neck and face. Helen is a ninth grade pupil in the Barrington public schools. FALSE ARREST ' . " Mrs. Marie Casey. 42-vear-old Ingleside housewife, was awarded $250 damages by a circuit court jury last week Wednesday after Montgomery Ward and Co. was found guilty of false arrest and imprisonment. The verdict reached &er* only an hour's deliberation exonerated Mrs. Casey of shoplifting implications growing out of her arrest Nov. 11, 1944, on a charge of taking a pink scarf from a rummage counter in the retail chain's Waukegan store. while prisioner3 of war, permits such veterans to make knowu to the president and th^ Congress such losses or wrongs^ If Congress determines that benefits are due they will be paid from seized enemy assets. It was pointed out that under the terms of the Geneva convention, prisoners of war "should bo humanely treated" and that their belongings, with the exception of arms and munitions, remain ihefrr private property. Manv veterans carried such items as jewelry, clothing, prized articles purchased for gifts and money. In most instances these personal articles were "appropriated" by the enemy. Other veterans received "excessive" labor assignments and suffered permanent physical injuries from unprovoked assaults by their captors. In addition some suffered from lack of proper hospitalization; and medication. ^ Service officers have< been in-? formed of this special provision in the claims Act and have been urged to have veterans report their claims before Feb. 15. In McHenry county veterans can receive information and assistance in this matter at the IVC office located at the court house 1ft Woodstock from Otto Babcock,; Scrvlce Officer, Wednesday of< each week. * Every proposed eviction from controlled housing accommodations must be brought to the attention of the rent office under the present federal rent law, it was emphasized by J. Edwin Porter, {associate rent director. He said' his concern On this point is occasioned by evidences that both landlords and tenants sometimes fail 10 realize that the present law returned to rent offices tihe control of evictions, l'j the ten months since last April 1, when the law became effective, he stated tliat the Woodstock rent office has issued thirteen certificates relating to eviction, out of a total of fifteen sought at the office. Porter pointed out that there are two types of eviction from controlled housing. These are eviction by notice direct fro the landlord to the tenant and eviction requiring • a certificate from the rent office. Even the first type requires that the rent office be notified of the landlord's direct notice 10 the tenant. "In either type case", the rent official explained, "is the actual eyiction ordered by the rent office, for if the tenant does not comply with the notice, the landlord has to resoH to civil eviction in a local court and if there is an order, the court issued importer outlined both eviction by notice and eviction by certificate as follows: Eviction by Nolle* Eviction by notice applies to tenants charge-d with non-payment of rent, nuisance or illegal accu pancy. Landlords may proceed at local law to evict them, mailing a cdfey of 'their notice to the rent office within twenty-four hours. (Federal eviction provisions apply only to controlled units. Among dwellings not under rent control are accommodations newly constructed since Feb. 1, 1947, and those decontrolled after conversion, and private homes having more than two paying guests in non-housekeeping rooms.) In proceeding to evict a tenant by notice, if rent is overdue, land lords may act against tenants after three days. In the case of nuisances, a landlord directs his notice to the tenant giving notice- to stop. If th» nuisance' continues, another 10 days' eviction notice is given by letter, with copies sent to the rent office within twenty-four hours. 1 Eviction by Certificate if an owner wants to occupy hiso! wn unit he may petition for a certificate relating to eviction, and a copy of the petition must be served on the tertant. When the certificate is granted, the landlord may take steps under local law, after waiting the time (usually 90 days) stated in the certificate. > Also under this method, evictions may be made by an owner for the purpose of making major alterations or repairs which can't Be ca»¥ietl out the tenant in occupancy. The waiting period in this case is generally three months. A. third type of certificate is wfttV an owner wishes to withdraw his unit from both the housing and non-housing rental market, with six months the usual waiting period after certificate is issued.
