Faced with the necessity of com- pleting income tax returns, as the result of demands Made by the De - pertinent, nearly 500 district farmers crowded Camino's Hall to capacity Wednesday evening and listened in- tently as officials of the income Tax Department, London Division, explain- ed the requirements of the Act. An indication of the interest shown was the long series of questions asked the speakers, and the fact it was nearly midnight when the meeting was end- ed. Recognizing the fact that there ex- isted a feeling among farmers that the demands of the Department were unfair and discriminatory, the Huron County Federation of Agriculture con- tacted the Income Tax Department and suggested a meeting where any problems could be discussed. The De- partment agreed and the Federation executive proceeded to call the meet- ing, Chairman W. R. Lobb, Federa- tion Preside,nt, told the audience the meeting was intended to be education- al. Since the purpose of the gather- ing was ,,,to discuss the farmers' in- come tax problems, it was obvious by the record attendance that this was a subject of major importance and in- terest to the average farmer, he said. Due to the lack of suitable records being kept by a great number of farmers, confusion existed in connec- tion with the preparation of the nec- essary returns. 'Representing the Income Tax De- partment, London Division, Mr. Vair and Mr. Ferguson dealt directly with the different problems which confront the farmers in the calculation of their taxes. After reading some e:' the principal regulations of the Income Tax Act, Mn. Vair answered questions put to him directly from the audienee. The two methods of assessment for income tax, the inventory basis and the accrued basis, were thoroughly discussed. Allowances for -depend- ents, for wanes paid, for depreciation etc., were all sutujects which seemed to present some difficulty to the av- erage farmer. Deductions at the source for hired help seemed an an- n.osting..Pointstonthesaudiencessaild s' surance, annuities, dividends and in- terest, e/c , were also discussed. The a ience as a whole recogniz- ed the fact the meeting was intend- ed to provide information, and the majority of the questions asked the speakers were phrased with that in mind. The possibility that the meet- ing did not. in its entirety, accept the necessity of making returns was in- dicated by the applause which greet- ed one speaker's reference to dictator- ship. W. H. Golding, M.P., and Elston Cardiff, M.P., s.poke briefly. Also on the platform w4re C. R. Coutes, Bel - grave. R. S. McKercher, vice-presi- dent, apd H. V. Roy, secretary of the Huron Federation.
