Every corporation, joint stock com- | pany or assoclation not specifically enumerated in section 3§, act of Au- gus’ 5, 1909, as exempt, and every in- {surance company shall make the re- | turn required by law, regardless of the | amount of its net . income, whether above or below $25,000. Corporations are urged to file their returns as soon after January 1, 1912, as possible, and any tax due is collect- | ed in accordance with the provisions | of an act of congress of the United | States, and has nothing to do with any Teturn or tax required by the state. About 25,000 corporations in the United States failed to file returns ot annual net income for the year 1910 on or before March 1, 1911, and incurred liability to the penalties prescribed by the act, viz., from $1,000 to $10,000. Corporations organized during the year 1911 or going into liquidation dur- ing that year should nevertheless ren- der a sworn return on the prescribed form. Corporations whose net income is less than $5,000 during the calendar year are required to make a return of annual net income, and returns of all corporations must be filed with the col lector of internal revenue for the dis- trict in which the principal place ot bustness of the codporation is located. The return must be filed before March Returns should be signed and veri- fled by two of the officers designated in the law. Two blank forms of the corporation tax have been mailed to every corpora- tion, joint stock company, etc., and a failure to receive blank forms does not relieve any corporation from fling a return or from the taxes or penalties, In the district of Connecticut for the year 190 over 400 corporations were delinquent in filing the returns before March 1, 1911. Each became liable to the penalties prescribed by the act for the delay. It should be borne in mind that tie return ofr tle calendar year 1911 s due January 1, 1912, and the last day of grace is March 1, 1912, and that blank forms will be supplied and full information cheerfully given to all who apply in person or by letter to Robert 0.

Will Be Decided Then Whether Plan for Buildings Will Be Submitted for Bids Now or Later, At the regular quarterly meeting of the board of trustees of the Norwich state hospital next Tuesday there will be but little except routine business to be taken up. One question which the board will decide concerns the sub- mutting of the plans for the new buildings for bids.
