The tax must be paid between Jan. \ and March 15. It is the intention of the comptroller to have repre- sentatives of his department sta- tioned at each county seat during January, February and March to give assistance to tax payers who need it. The law provides that incomes up to $10,000 a year shall be taxable at |1 per cent., incomes from $10,000 to | $50,000 at 2 per cent., and incomes in excess of $50,000 at 3 per cent, Ex- emption up to $1,000 is provided in the case of an unmarried man and up to $2,000 for a married man, Tho tax will hit the non-resident harder than it hits the resident, The |law provides that “any person, firm to any person for personal service (salary, wages, feos, compensation) must retail 2 per cent. of the amount paid, if for the year it exceeds $1,000, unless the recipient of the income files a certificate showing that he is @ resident of the State.” This means that the New Jersey resident employed in New York will have 2 per cent. of his salary de- ducted by his employer. Half of this deduction will be retained by the State and the other half will be re- bated to the recipient of the income. When the income Tax bill was first drafted it provided for a’ flat rate of two per cent. on all incomes, but later amendments fixed the slid- ing rates of one, two and three per cent. through an oversight, No change was made in the provision regarding non-residents, Non-residents, however, will be al- lowed exceptions based on income taxes paid in thelr localities, but there will be no non-resident per- sonal exceptions, For example, the New Jersey employee of a New York firm who is married and receives a salary of $1,800 a year must pay two per cent, or $36, of which $18 later will be returned to him, The married man who lives in Brooklyn and receives $1,800 salary will not be taxed at all, because res!- dents of the State who are married taxed are only upon incomes in ex- cess of $2,000 _ - ‘Triangular ‘Track Meet, Columbia-Dartmouth.

Repair on the NC-4, which reached here yesterday from Chathamme Mass., had been rushed to enable her to “hop off” with her sister planés, the NC-1 and NC-3, The aviators held a confer.nce to decide means of lessening the 28,800 pounds burden which contributed yesterday to the inability of the NC-1 and NC-3 to rise from the water, and to select a place for the “take-off.” | COMPENSATION LAW SAFEGUARD APPROVED Governor Signs Bill Prohibiting Direct Settlements Unless Officially Sanctioned.
