WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—Borglars and bootleggera owe the Government here to-day as the Internal Revenue Tureau made ready to recelve more than 5,000,000 returns for the onalen- dar year just past. Those who indulge in a “friendly little game” should pay Uncle Sam approximately $80,000,000 from the national “kitty” of approximately $2,000,000,000 if they wish to make correct returns of their incomes. Wiliam M. Williams, Commis- sioner of the Internal Revenue Bu- reau, doce not believe, however, the Income tax\ lawa will be atrictly obeyed by gamblers, burglars and the like, The bootleggers are even leas likely to make true returns of thelr income, it is presumed.
