The courtroom was filled with lawr8, members of congress, and reprenatives of labor organizations. GovHenry J. Allen was present and nor mained until the arguments were mpleted. Mr. Smith pronounced the vernor the foremost protector of labor the country.

In the Federal Returns Received So Far Those Which Show the Maker Exempt From Payment Predominate. "No tax" returns predominate in the income tax statements being received at the office of the internal revenue collector. The increased exemption for families and greater attention to legitimate deductions have wiped out the necessity for paying taxes on many of the smaller incomes. There are dozens of deductions to which the average taxpayer is entitled if he watches the pennies. Any deduction will be scrutinized by federal employees who check the statements for errors, but there are many which may legally be noted on the return to be submitted to the revenue department by March 15.

A MAJORITY $5,000 OR UNDER. A majority of the returns in this revenue district come from individuals with incomes of $5,000 or less. Any person with a gross income of $5,000 must make a return, whether he has any taxable income or not, the commissioner of internal revenue at Washington has ruled. A single person with a net income of $1,000, not considering the exemption permitted him, files a return but does not pay a tax because of the exemption. The situation affects heads of families similarly.

Where the, net income, after making deductions, $2,000, a return is expected from married men living with their wives. The exemption of $2,500 and $400 for each child leaves nothing for the government to levy on, but a return is expected nevertheless. WHAT THE DEDUCTIONS INCLUDE. "Deductions" are expenditures and losses permitted to be subtracted from the gross income. They include war and luxury taxes, city, state and county taxes, losses on stocks, interest and other things which may not occur in the "average" taxpayer's financial transactions for the year.

Every penny paid out last year for war tax on tickets to theaters and pictures shows, for perfumes, cosmetics and patent medicines, wearing apparel, railroad fare, musical instruments and other merchandise, is deductable from the gross income. Such deductions should be listed and attached to the return, L. D. Applegate, deputy collector, said today. "DRY' OFFICIAL RAPS A CHURCH New York Episcopal Members Charged With Laxity on Booze.

NEW YORK, Feb. H. Anderson, state superintendent of the AntiSaloon League, in an open letter to Bishop Thomas F. Gailor, president of the national council of the Protestant Episcopal church, charges that denomination in this city with having an "unusual proportion" of members who are the mainstay of the bootleggers.
