Income Tax Form
Is Less Puzzling
Blanks Ready After January
2—Will Be Mailed on
Bequest.
No delay In filing of income tax
returns lk expected for 1923, accord
ing to Collector of Internal Revenue
A. B. Allen of the district of Nebras
ka, who says the bureau has been as
sured of prompt service in furnishing
the necessary forms.
The filing period is from January 1
to March 15, 1924. On January 2
forms for filing individual, corpora
tion, partnership, personal service
corporation, Information and other re
turns required by the revenue act will
be available at the office of the col
lector of internal revenue, Omaha,
and branch offices at Grand Island
or Lincoln. A copy of the form de
sired may be obtained on written re
quest.
The form heretofore used for filing
returns of individual net incomes of
$5,000 or less has been simplified in
the interests of the salaried persons
and wage earners. The new form will
be used for reporting net Income for
the year 1923 of $5,000 and less de
rived chiefly from salaries and wages.
Reducing to a minimum the problem
of correctly making out an Income
tax return, this form consists of a
rlngle sheet in which space Is pro
vided for answers to only three ques
tions in relation to income, salaries,
wages, commissions, interest on bank
deposits, notes, mortgages, and cor
poration bonds, and other income.
On the reverse side are Ipstructions.
It is estimated that 70 per cent of
those who are required to file Income
tax returns will use the new form.
Persons, any part of whose income
for the year 1923 was derived from
business or profession, farming, sale
of property or rents, regardless of the
amount, will b« required to use the
larger form. The use of this form
will be required also in cases where
the net income was in excess of $5,000,
whether from salary, business, profes
sion or other taxable sources.
Forms for filing individual returns
of income will be sent to persons who
filed similar returns for the year 1922.
U being impossible to determine this
year the form desired by the tax
payer, whether he be a man whose
Income was derived chiefly' from sal
ary or “wages or from business, pro
fession or other taxable sources, the
taxpayer will receive both forms, and
is advised to note carefully the in
structions regarding their use.

Such rolls were

S^O SAID her husband, and the rolls disappeared
by the panful. No wonder—they were light
and fluffy and delicate brown. They had a rich
sweetness about them—good enough to eat without
butter. They hardly seemed to take up any space
at all. When he asked her how she did it, she
simply smiled and said:
"Same old recipe, hut I used Omar Wonder
Flour!" _
Baking with Omar Flour gives you a sense of
sureness. Bread, rolls, muffins, doughnuts, cake*
—anything you bake—will always have the same
fine texture and lightness when Omar Wonder
Flour is used.
Omar is made of the finest selection of spring
and winter wheat, rich in gluten, and milled to
perfection. Use it for everything you hake, and
use it for thickening soups, sauces and gravies.
Order a sack of Omar from your grocer to-day !
You will always find it the same uniformly good
flour.

Heresy Charge

Kpiscopal Church in Fight
Over Virgin Birth—Pas
tor Not Known Here.
New York, Dec. 17.—An ecclesiasti
cal storm today threatened to rock
the Protestant Episcopal church In
America.
Low church "modernism” ■was at
issue with high church "fundamental
ism.”
The dispute centered around the
historic authenticity of the virgin
birth of Christ.
Rev. Lee W. Heaton, youthful pas
tor of Trinity Episcopal church, Fort
Worth, Tex., a former resident of
Omaha. Neb., and graduate of the
Jesuit Catholic university there, was
the storm center of dispute.
Against him stood the house of
bishops of the Episcopal church.
Some &00 or more clergymen en
rolled In the Modern Churchmen's
union, were his defenders.
Rev. Mr. Heaton is to be tried for
heresy upon order of Coadjutor Bishop
Henry T. Moore of the diocese of
Texas. A Palm Sunday sermon. In
which Rev. Heaton said It was his
belief that Christ was the son of Jo
seph, will be the question at issue.
Not Known Here.
Dr. Lee W. Heaton, rector of the
Episcopal church of the Trinity, Fort |
Worth, Tex., who ,has been sum
moiled to a trial fur heresy Cor lii^
denial of the virgin birth of Christ
as a physical fai t. Is said to be a
former resident of Omaha.
He is reported to lie a graduate ol
the Jesuit Catholic university here
although Creighton has no record of
him in the Arts and Science college.
Itev. Heaton is nut related to Heat
ons living In Omaha or Council
Bluffs, It was found upon Inquiry.
In comment upon the rejection of
the recent pastoral letter of the
house of bishops by Rev. Heaton and
by Dr. Leighton Parks of St.
Bartholomews church. New York
City. Rev. Thomas Casady of All
Saints Episcopal church, who re
turned Saturday from New York
where a national council of the ex
ecutive committee of the Episcopal
church was held, said:
"The meeting I attended was in no
way connected with this controversy.
The trouble seems to have been
started by a little group of men in
New York who are making a fight
on an extreme liberal position.
"There are other questions than
theology' In connection with this con
troversy. It la a personal affair
among those men that Is causing the
trouble. There are some men who
