direct protest has been made to premier king by the town of cobalt in connection with the prosecution of several citizens for failure to make income tax returns it is said that these men do not earn taxable incomes and to pay the fine of 25 would be a hardship we hope the government will not prosecute in such cases it seems a very foolish thing to force men to fill out a pile of forms to submit to the govern ment when a person is not making enough money to have their income taxed the government has ways and means of finding out wttiat a man earns when aman earns a taxable income and fails to make returns that is of course breaking the law but why prosecute a man whose in come isnt taxable because he didnt waste a lot of time answering nonr sensical questions that would bring no revenue to
