The rate of tax is on each full $1,000 of the total value of a corporations capital stock for the preceding fiscal year ending June 30, in excess of $5,000. The amount of $5,000 is an arbitrary exemption allowed all corporations. Every corporation whether do mestic or foreign, must file a return, even though it carries no tax due.

The term corporation includes associations and joint stock companies. All corporations claiming exemption, must file a return, the determination of liability rest ing with the commissioner of internal revenue, at Washington. If any company was not engaged in business an affidavit should be attached explaining the companys activities. The, return is due on or before July 31, 1923, to avoid the penal-, ties for delinquency. Any corporation which fails to make a return within the required time is liable to a penalty not to exceed $1,000.

Returns should be filed at the earliest possible moment, thus avoiding the assertion of any penalties for i delinquency which are frequently incurred through oversight resuting from failure to file returns promptly. Do not confuse this tax wfh any form of income tax, nor get the impression that this particular tax ha! previously been paid.

The complaint of Anna Rosenfeld against the' state game and fish warden, filed in the Cascade county district court is held to be insuffi cient and the action of the lower courtin sustaining a demurrer to fhe complaint is found to be a correct ruling in a decision of the state supreme court handed 1 down yesterday.

The opinion of the court is written by Associate Justice Holloway. Anna Rosenfeld sued the game warden to regain possesion of Beaver pelts alleged to be worth $2,500. The lower court sustained the demurrer upon the ground that the facts stated in the complaint were not sufficient to constitute a cause of action that the complainTittan ordinary, case would, be sufficient 'but because the possession of the pelts of wild animals is prims facie evidence that the person possessing same has killed the animals unlawfully requires the person in possession to prove the fact that they were not killed unlawfully, there fore the complaint should of 'alleged thf possession' iri a lawful manner and-how obtained.
