IF ACQUITTED, BURCH WILL GO TO ASYLUM OS ANGELES, Dec. 29.—The second round of the defense fight to establish Arthur C. Burch, on trial for the murder of J. Belton Kennedy, insane through the testimony of alienists was staged today when Dr. E. B. Hoag, one of the three experts who first declared Burch to be mentally unbalanced, was called to the witness stand. Scientific reasons for Burch's alleged brain deterioration due, it is claimed, to dementia praecox in the paranoid form, were to be given by Dr. Hoag, who observed Burch at the county jail from the time he arrived here from Las Vegas, Nev., where he was arrested. Dr. Hoag followed Dr. Charles L. Allen, first defense alienist, who admitted in answer to a question by Woolwine, that he once said that half of the people of Los Angeles were insane. While the second round of the alienists' battle was being fought, it became known that the Rev. W. A. Burch plans to take his son back to Chicago he is acquitted by reason of insanity and to put him in an asylum there instead of in Southern California. Dr. Burch was reported to have conferred with his son on the question of what will happen to him in event of acquittal and Burch was said to have agreed to go back to a Chicago asylum.

Phone 794 West Anaheim FILE YOUR INCOME TAX RETURNS EARLY With the approach of the period for filing income tax returns, January 1 to March 15, 1922, taxpayers are advised to lose no time in the compilation of their accounts for the year 1921," says John P. Carter, collector of Internal Revenue for the Sixth district." A new and important provision of the Revenue Act of 1921 is that every person whose gross income for 1921 was $5,000 or over shall file a return, regardless of the amount of net income upon which the tax is assessed. Returns are required of every single person whose net income was $1,000 or over and every married person living with husband or wife whose net income was $2,000 or over. Widows and widowers and persons separated or divorced from husband or wife are regarded as single persons." Net income is gross income, less certain deductions for business expenses, losses, taxes, etc., Carter explains. Gross income included practically all income received by the taxpayer during the year; in the case of the wage earner; salaries, wages, bonuses and commissions; in the case of professional men, all amounts received for professional services; in the cases of farmers, all profits from the sale of farm products, and rental or sale of land.

Center St. VILLAGE GOSSIP J. F. ("Tex") Stacy had recovered today from the effects of a surgical operation through which a bullet received from a desperado's rifle nine years ago was removed from beneath the skin on his back. Stacy was one of the posse of deputy sheriffs and citizens that followed Ira Jones into the hills at Tomato Springs. Jones from a clump of sumac killed Under Sheriff Robert Squires and wounded Stacy. Later in the fight W. B. Culver, now living at Santa Ana, was wounded and Al Prater received a wound from which he died. The fight ended when Jones was killed either by a bullet from his own revolver or from a bullet fired at him by one of the scores of men who had gathered to capture him. Stacy has always felt that the presence of the bullet left in his body had something to do with bringing on an attack of lung trouble. Some time ago by manipulation the bullet was worked to a point beneath the skin on the right side of his back, near the backbone. A local anaesthetic was used in taking out the bullet. The cut was quickly made and the bullet, surrounded by a tissue, was removed. It is a 25-30 bullet. Fullerton friends of William P. Webb, Jr., of Anaheim, who consolled him over the loss of his turkey, which died just before Thanksgiving, now congratulate him as a poultry doctor. He has a sick rooster, but under his gracious care, the rooster is improving, and may recover.
