Must Be Sold by LIGHTING COMPANY FACES FUEL CRISIS, Only Six Days’ Supply on Hand,, Today’s Statement Says According to a statement given out today by the Connecticut Light and Power Co., there is still danger of a fuel shortage. In fact, the situation is acute, there being only a six days’ supply on hand at the main plant of the company in Waterbury. This statement was issued to en- lighten consumers of electricity and to contradict a false impression which the company believes was conveyed by a short article in the paper last night: “In regard to the fuel shortage at our Waterbury steam plant it is just as serious today as It was several days ago. Six cars of coal were re- ceived yesterday at the plant but this represents only a two days’ supply, and this together with the reserve coal which we have on hand will only last five or six days. At the end of that time if no further coal is received the plant will have to be shut down. It is true, however, that there are 98 cars en roue on the Pennsylvania Railroad Co’s line between the mines . at South Fork, Pa., and Maybrook, which is the gateway through which the New Haven road receives its freight. Many of these cars have | been en route for several weeks and | it is due to the inability to get the | Pennsylvania railroad to deliver | these cars at Maybrook Junction ; which has made the fuel situation as- | sume a serious aspect. “The above situation obtaing not- | withstanding the fact that through | the instrumentality of the Fuel Ad- 1 ministration and the War Depart- | ment orders have been issued to the Have you lost a sum of money?

F. ATWATER, District Supt.” INGOME TAX AID | Collector Walsh Will Deputy Here, January 2, to Assist Those Liable in Filling Out Returns. Collector of Internal Revenue James J. Walsh announces that a federal income tax officer will be sent into New Britain on January 2 and will be here until March 2. He will have his office in the post office and will be there every day from 9 a. m. to 6 p. m. and be ready and willing to help persons subject to the income tax make out their returns without any cost to them for his services. Every individual who is married, living with wife or husband, and hav- ing a net income during the year 1917 of $2,000 or over, will be obliged to file a return. Unmarried persons hav- ing a net income of $1,000 or over will be obliged to file a return. These returns must be made up on official forms befare March 1, 1918. The federal officer will have a supply of income tax forms with him. Because many people do not understand the law and will not know how to make out their returns, the government is sending in this federal officer to assist them. It is the duty of the taxpayer to make himself known to the govern- ment. If an individual is not sure whether or not he is obliged to file a rveturn, he should consult the fed- eral officer, as penalties ranging from $20 to $1,000, and jail sentences, are imposed upon those who neglect their duty in this respect. Of course, it is impossible to send a federal afficer in- to every town, village and community. To meet this condition, Collector James J. Walsh has assigned officers in the most important centers, taking into consideration the locatian, popu- lation and accessibility. Individuals desiring information and assistance in making up their returns may suit their convenience as to which officer they will call upon. The collector suggests that every- body immediately start to figure- up his income and expenses so as ta be ready with the figures when the fed- eral officer arrives. Income includes about every dollar that one gets. Ex- pense is comprised of the money that is spent by the individual in making his money, such as interest, taxes paid, hired help, amount paid for goods sold, seed, fertilizers, food stock for horses and cattle, rent, etc., but not living expenses. Further information will be fur- mnished by the federal officer.
