Important Provisions Os Tax Law Explained

IMPORTANT PROVISIONS r (Editor’s note: "What the new tax bill means to you”. “ This is the Seventh in a series of articles explaining some of the major provisions in the new tax bill passed by congress. This article tells how the new rules and regulation* will aid you if you are over 65 years of ageJ J By THOMAS J. FOLEY WASHINGTON (INS) — Many’ elderly persons will receive substantial benefits this year under (lie new tax law. The basis is a tax iredlt of 20 percent on the first $1,200 of “eligihtte” retirement income for those over 65 and for some below' that age. « The new category includes annuities. most pensions, rents, dividends from stocks, and interest on mortgages, bonds and savings accounts. This listing should not be confused with such other retirement sources as social security and military and railroad pensions on which no tax has been required. Persons under 65 will get a break on incomes from federal, state and local government funds. To benefit under the new system, a person must have earned at least S6OO * year in any ten prior years. A widow, whose hueband would have been eligible, can qualify automatically. If a husband and wife are eligible, each one will benefit. The new formula*'works thil way: A 2Ju»a(deirt «<edit is allowed on th* ffiW'sl.2(R of “eligible” retirement income, minus social security and other benefits, and minus all earned income over S9CO 8 y« B r. '■ ' " : --i Earned income is defined as wages, professional fees, commissions or money received for services. Let’s take an example: A retired college professor and his wife, both 70 yearsdid, receive the

following annual income: social security, $600; teachers' pension, $2,000; rent. *6(MF k tutoring fees, $l,lOO. This adds up to $4,300. First, the professor computes his normal income tax. This amounts to slßs. Then, he figure* the: tax credit on his retirement income. He subtracts S6OO for social security. This leaves S6OO of the sl,200 limit permitted under the new ’ plan. Then, he deducts S2OO, which is the difference between the S9OO credit and the $l,lOO received for tutoring. This leaves the professor a S4OO credit. Twenty percent of this is sß(?~his allowable deduction. He subtracts SBO from the $lB6 and pays the government $lO6. If he had been 75 years old, he would have received the full sl.s«o allowance. Those over 75 are not subject to the limitation. If the professor had earned only S9OO or less and received no other benefits, he would still have applied the 20 percent rate. His windfall would have been $240 and he wouldn't have had to pay the government anything.

Drought Survey In Southern Indiana Agricultural Heads In Session Monday 1 INDIANAPOLIS (INS)—A coun ty-by-county drought survey ol . southern Indiana was started today ■ following a meeting of agricultural leaders held Ln Indianapolis Mon- • day, with Lieut. Gov. Harold W. ' Handley presiding. ( When the reports are mad* to ‘ the Indiana agricultural stabilize- ’ tion and conservation committee at the end of the survey, another ( meeting will he held in Indiaaap- ( olis, probably in about two weeks. ( This meeting will determine wheth- [ er it is necessary to ask Governor George N. Craig to request Presi- , dent Elsenhower to declare the ( state a disaster area. t If the President does so, the U. 8. department of agriculture ’ will determine just what counties ■ are to receive emergency help. It was pointed out that drought disaster relief from the federal i government is not a give-away pro* i gram. Farmers with hay shortages could import hay from other states, with a saving on freight rates; they would be able to buy surplus grain stored by the commodity credit corporation at a reduced price, aad their 1955 agricultural 1 conservation practice program might be adjusted advantageously. Speakers said recent rains are not nearly sufficient to relieve the crop losses of the past three or four years. The county survey committees will be composed of county agents, county ABC chairman, county.FHA 3uafirvlßQrs. a banker and two farmers. - -

He said that naturally’ this applies to croßs-examination. '. Under court procedure! cross-ex-amination is narrowed to rebuttal of direct testimony. Wart kins pointed but, however; that there are exception® to this and they will apply in the hearing® provided there is relevancy. The chairman said the panel has studied the 44 chargee against McCarthy with the idea of dropping some which appear not to have significance. But he indicated the group wants an attorney's advice before making any final decision on any of the counts. Some members said that by the time hearing start, the chargee may be reduced to from 10 to 15 counts, and that they will drive to complete hearings as early as possible in September, so the senate could return in October.

H Fulbright said that the special committee “obviouely doe® not need 4€ chargee” to return a recommendation of censure. He added; "The last time the senate censured a member it did so on only (Hie charge.” However, he said his so-called i “shake down" count involving a 110,608 fee paid McCarthy by the Lustron Housing Corp., should stand “because I think it is a good one.” He indicated also that he thought the committee should retain his charge that McCarthy invited government employes te "violate the law and their oath of office.’’ ,
