household duties and care for
their four children. He also

medical expenses incurred.

Tax Department
Eases Up
Because of a breakdown in
the territorial department of
taxation’s bookkeeping equip
ment, persons who pay their
Alaska income tax in install
ments have been given a
month’s grace on the present
payment.
The payments, due from
those who file an estimated
declaration at the first of the
-year, were due by July 15.
The forms to be returned
with the payments were not
mailed from Juneau until July
23, and in some cases did not
arrive here until after Au
gust 1.
Accompanying the forms is
a memorandum from the tax
commissioner.
The memorandum states
that “due to a change-over in
our system and a breakdown
in bookkeeping equipment,
we were unable to process the
returns and prepare the
second installment notice in
sufficient time for the July 15
deadline. Therefore, you are
hereby granted an extension
to August 15 in which to make
payment of the enclosed in
stallment notice.”

USN, and Jissie Ann Fergu
son, 27, San Jose, Calif.,
