Income Tax Iniquities

To the Editor of the "Norta-Cama Dairy News."

Sir,—The following may help Ubique." He is apparently an ex-service man. Therefore. he can reclaim his income tax as being a person who has served under the Crown and now lives abroad.

After much badgering of the. income-tax people I succeeded in zatting them to acknowledge that as an ex-officer I was a person who nad served under the Crown and was entitled to exemption. They not only acknowledged it but have repaid my income-tax which had been subtracted from—dividend warrants of companies registered London. It is just possible, of course, that' pensions may not come under this heading but if "Ubique" writes to London for form No. 186/C B it may prove worth trying.

It may be useful news to some service men that income-on dividends of companies registered in London may be recovered by them as persons who have served under the Crown.
