Income tax returns are due about the fifteenth of March and should be filed as soon as possible. Several cases have been reported to the authorities in regard to people who ha renlized gains within the past year and did not make note o1 such on their tax returns. The fol- lowing is a statement released by tax officials “Numerous inquiries have reached James J. Walsh, collector of inter- nal revenue, Hartford, Conn. reia- tive to the decision of United States District Court of Connecticut in the Brewster case, in which it was held that gains and profits realized from the sale of capital assets is not tax- able income. The United Statesj at- torney for Connecticut has been auth- orized to perfect an appeal to the supreme court of the United States for a review of the decision. Since Congress, under the provisions of the fncome tax acts of 1913, 1916 and 1918, has directed the taxation as in- cme of such gains and profits the bu- reau will continue to collect the tax thereon, unless and until the supreme court shall hold that provision of law to be unconstitutional. “The same question is involved in the Eldorado and Ryerson cascs which were argued in ’the supreme court some weeks ago.
