DID YOU RECEIVE
ALIMOfjYLAST YEAR
Or Were You Successful in a Breach
of Promise Suit, Asks Collec
tor of Internal Revenue.
Did you receive alimony during
the year 19"22? Were you success
ful in a breach of promise suit en
tered against a former admirer?
Personal questions, very, but im
portant to those to whom they ap
ply in the preparation of an income
tax return for the year 1922.
Amount3 received as alimony are
not taxable income. Such payments
do not have to be included in the
income tax return of the person re
ceiving them, nor may they be de
ducted from the gross income of tae
person paying them. In this respect,
payment of alimony, may be likened
to a personal or living expense,
which is not deductible. However, a
woman who has won a breach of
promise case, or has accepted out of
court a settlement as heart balm,
must include the amount in her in
come tax return. The Bureau of In
ternal Revenue has ruled in such
cases that the amount received "is
not to be regarded as a return of
capital, since the benefits of which
the injured party was deprived were
merely anticipatory."
Members of a labor union may de
duct as a business expense dues paid
year 1922. Such dues are held by
ho nureaii to be necessary expenses
incident to the earning of their
wages. A member or a labor union
n-hn' while on strike, receives pay
ment from an organization must in-
. . , . C II . n.inll
trade in nis income iur jcai suv
items.
Ti)f tavnaver who in 1922 recov
ered damages for defamation of
ncrsr.nal character need not include
in his return such amount, inasmuch
as it has been held to be non-taxable
income. The revenue act specifically
cxempt3 amounts received througji
accident or health insurance, or un
der workmen's compensation acts as
compensation for personal injuries
or illness, plus any additional amount
received by suit or agreement in
such cases.
To avoid penalty, returns should
be filed on or before midnight of
March 15. Free advisory service in
the preparation of forms is offered at
the office of the Collector of Inter
nal Revenue in Omaha, or nearly any
bank in the country.

PROHIBITION OPPOSED
3Y C0NGRESSW0MAL"
Washington, March C. Announce- :
nc:it that Mrs. Mae E. Nolan, wiio
recently became a member of tho
hpuso from the Fifth California dis
trict, succeeding her husband, the
late John I. Nolan, had assured the
Association against the prohibition
Amendment that she would work for
modification of the Volstead act, was
made tonight by the association,
which said in a statement that Mrs.
Nolan had summed up her stand on
prohibition as follows:
"I believe in the modification of
the Volstead act and am for the con
trol of alcoholic beverages by the
government. This would stop traffic
in impure liquors that is now a nun- ;
ace to public health; would eliminate
the un-American interference with
personal liberty that the present
laws permit.
"It would remove disregard for
laws that do not-represent the will
of the majority that is a growing
danger to our national' life."
Washington. March ft. Retail

sentative cities decreased between
January IS r.nd February 15, accord

ASKS NEV7 TRIAL
SIGNS OF-SPRING
. Surely the 'birds of spring are on
the wing and one of the indications
of this is the number of "tourists"
who are making their way through
via the side door.-lnllnians to the
great north after wintering in' the
milder climes of the. south. The po
lice last night had five of these quar
tered at the jail for the evening and
thi3 morning they resumed their
journey northward.
The Plattsmoutii people have been
!!(' e cr loss interested in the case of
th'- Fnto of Iowa vs. James R.
Hodges, charged with manslaughter,
which was tried at Red Oak the last
two weeks, Mr. Hodges being well
known to many here. The defendant
was found guilty l:y the jury at the
tr!r.l last week and is now await
ing sentence or the outcome of the
application of his attorneys for a new
tri-:. The ground on which the de
fendant seeks a now trial are that
t!v court erred in admitting testi
mony of the state over the objec
tion of the defendant's attorney and
nl.o in denying the testimony of de
f"nrlant offered; it being claimed
that the verdict was the result of
prejudice and not warranted by the
evidence and also that the court err
ed in not granting change of venue.
The companion of Hodges, Mrs.
L'uillo McMichael, on the occasion
when their car is alleged to have run
into that of Mr. and Mrs. Anderson
and caused their death, has been sen
tenced to fifteen years on a charge of
forgery.

Ever since Christmas the family of
Frank H. Johnson have been on the
sick list, first one and then another
member of the family being down.
Mrs. Johnson was seriously sick
about Christmas with an attack of
the grippe, from the after affects of
which she has not as yet entirely re
covered. . Joseph, their little five-year-old
son, has been very sick with a com
bination of grippe and whooping
cough followed by pneumonia. The
little fellow has had a hard pull.
Miss Edith Peters, a trained nurse,
was in charge of the case for 12 days.
He is now on the way to recovery,
but very weak.
Walker, another son of Mr. ajid
Mrs. Johnson, is the one who at this
writing is indisposed with the
whooping cough and is having a pret
ty hard time, being in bed part of
the time. t .
