The state will reorganize on April 10. misuncomm- ission has issued instructions calling attention to changes in the state income tax laws which among other things, no longer require everyone to file returns. Included among changes in the law is repeal of a provision that formerly required a $1 filing fee on each tax return. Not only is the filing fee no longer paid, but only persors coining within three classifications under the tax need file returns, the commission explained. Only residents in the three classifications, which follow, must file returns, although there may be nc tax due: 1. Every single person having net income of $600 or more. 2. Every married person living rwith Tfu.sbknS ' or wife, having af aggregate net ircome of $1200 or more. 3. Every person having a gross income of $2500 or more, regardless of the amount of his net income. Persons required to make returns have until M.arch 15 to file them. If anyone under the income tax law is required to submit a return and fails to do so, he becomes subject to a penalty of 25 per cent of the tax, which is edict ted with the tax. o Mrs. Ixe R.
