CANADA ” ’."'r! of Chit": Rc'rieu Sthru '———-— ' mittso goes Bridgeport whehss the power of: making such apfiointmodts. Probably. of all the candidates who have been mentioned in con- neetion with the deputy sherlflship. the ,one r'nost likely to receive the appointment is J. Edward Lycett. Mr. Lycett is a member 0: the "Ohio Guard" and is active in the Fourth District. Others who are mentioned are George Lockwood and William O'Dell. Although the name of Con- stable John A. Mills was first men- tioned, it is understood that he has exp.essed no desire for the appoint- ment. 3 The Republican Town committee is facing a rather unusual predica- ment in making recommendation for the deputy sherlifship. The ap- pointee must be a man who is will- ing to take care of the Bridgeport end or the Job instead or the Nor- walk end; he must be a: man who is able to give part time to the ot- flee, and yet not devote all his time to the duties of. the. appointment. Deputy Sherit! Edward B. Doulens, who is the appointee in the Second District. does about all of the work in the city. serving nearly all the legal papers. He devotes his entire time to the job and obtains his en- tire living from it. The difficulty is that'there is not enough work in Norwalk for two deputy sheriffs to devote their entire time to it. The candidates in the field look— ing for Mr. Benedict's appointment are wondering when he intends to resign. As it happens, wwever. the sheriff has the power to appoint as many deputies as he may require or desire so that the fact. that Mr. Benedict's resignation has not been handed in. will not interfere with the appointment of a. new office- holder. It is expected. however, that Mr. Benedict will resign soon inas— much as he has already entered upon his duties as highway super- visor. lie and Chester Nolen. for- mer supervisor who has been ap- pointed to a more responsible posi- tion in the State Highway depart- ment. spent yesterday on an in- spection tour of the roads of Fair- t‘uld county. Mr. Benedict has been presented with a new automobile by the state to use in connection with his ofilcc. K. of C. Home Ass’n.

For example. a husband's net income for 1923 was $7.000 and the wife's $3.- 000. If a joint return is tiled. the income is subject to a. suriax of 1 per cent on the amount of net in- come betwecn $6.000 or $40. If separate returns are filed, the husband's surtax is 1 per cent on the amount of his net income between $6.000 and $7,000, or $10. The wife having a net. income of less than 36.000 pays no surtax. In filing separate returns either husband or wile, but not both. may claim the personal exemption. or it may be divided between them in , such amounts as they desire.
