J anuary — April , 1944 T HE C INE TECHNICIAN 9 Thus under this new system, as soon as a baby arrives the allowance is given, and that will usually mean a refund of tax, and in any case, a reduction in future deductions. 20. Please advise all members to make a note of the reference number shown on the Notice of Coding, and to quote it in all letters. One office deals with ten to fifty thousand people, and it's hopeless trying to trace them without reference numbers. 21. Further notes will be issued later, regarding procedure after April . February and March Deductions. 22. Manual wage-earners assessed half-yearly are paying tax on 1942/43 wages up to the end of January. No assessments have yet been made for the half-year to 5th October, 1943, or tf> 5th April, 1944 ; but employers are being told to continue deductions at the same rate for February and March. 23. These February and March deductions will roughly cover the liability for the whole year to 5th April, 1944, because the remainder of the tax for that year is being cancelled. It is obvious that tax under the old system could not be collected at the same time as tax was being deducted under " Pay as You Earn." Full details of the assessment for the year to 5th April, 1944, showing what has been paid, what more is due, or what is to be refunded will be issued in the autumn. Meanwhile, if a worker has had increased wages he can ask his employer to increase deductions. If he has got more allowances due or has had a drop in wages he can ask the Collector Of Taxes to authorise lower deductions. For this, he should ask the pay clerk for the address of the Collector, and his consecutive number on the employers' deduction sheets. Post-war Credits. 24. Relatively few people will get Post-war Credits for 1943/44. The tax now being cancelled will be set against what would otherwise be the Post-war Credit. In other wor'ds, getting the tax cancelled now is better than getting a " Post-war Credit " some time in the future. For 1944/5, i.e., the first year of " Pay as You Earn," Post-war Credits will be worked out as usual. "IS THIRTEEN UNLUCKY?" Looking back upon our career we do not think so — let's see why. THIRTEEN YEARS ago IMPERIAL created the first documentary recording studio, when such a thing was unheard of. THIRTEEN YEARS ago IMPERIAL created the first fixed-price recording policy, then undreamed of. THIRTEEN YEARS ago IMPERIAL created the first guaranteed recording policy — at that time considered impossible. And as a result, to date we have recorded over 19,000,000 feet (nineteen million) of successful recordings — no mean achievement. And now we create the first royalty free noiseless recording policy for our regular customers. We are still the leading documentary recording studios with a reputation for high quality work. " Recorded by Imperial Sound Studios " is a household word in the trade, and your guarantee of a good job well done — by a studio with THIRTEEN YEARS specializing in documentary recording.
