Important Provisions Os Tax Law Explained
►(Editor’s note: "What The New Tax Bill Means To You" The new income tax measure gives salesmen and others Who travel for their employers a new break. This provision is explained in tills article.! < BY THOMAS J. FOLEY WASHINGTON (INS) —Salesmen and other employes who travel within a city in their work get a bie'ak in the new tax law. The revenue overhaul made changes in rules governing deduction of business transportation expenses of all these persons and of regular business expenses for some of them. You should remember that some things are deducted from gross in-come-that is, total income from wages, commissions, expense accounts, get adjusted gross income. Other items are deducted after you already have figured your adjusted gross income. These are such things as charitable contributions, medical expenses and interest payments. Instead of listing all of these items, however, most persons find it profitable to take the standard ie per cent deduction that covers all of the\n, often with something to spare. Salesmen or others traveling in their heme town as part of their work usually have had to list their business transportation expenses along with medical expenses or others, thereby giving up use ot the standard deduction.

DeVossls Named To Attendance Committee DE VOSS IS NAMED TO John L. DeVoss, Decatur attorney, has been named to the attendance committee for the aunual meeting of the Indiana state bar association in French Lick Sept. 23 to 25. DeVoss will -serve under John Shoaff of Fort Wayne, attendance ehairman of the fourth district. Bob Good of Shelbyville is general chairman of the committee and Walter B.

Institutes on "How to Win a Jury Trial” and “Corporate Proceedings" will be given. ATOMIC ENERGY From Pace Owe) Originally, the bill said the coops should" be given their traditional preference on government-gen-erated power “insofar as practicable" but the conference committee decided to drop that phrase. Both the patent and co-op issues touched off a bitter senate debate last Friday which led to a 48 to 41 defeat on the first conference committee's despite a personal plea for passage by President Elsenhower. Mr. Eisenhower denied Democratic charges that the bill would tend to create power monopolies and said the legislation was "in the public interest."

The only times that they could deduct these expenses fj-om gross i income, as self-employed persons > do, and also use the standard deduction. was when they were reimbursed by their employer for the expenses, or if they spent the night away from home. And in any event, the expenses 1 they deducted could not be greater 1 than the amount the employer was reimbursed, even if the expenses ' themselves actually were greater. To correct this locality, the new law puts them in the same category with self-employed by allowing them to deduct all such expenses from gross income. Therefore, they can still take the full 10 per cent standard deduction for other items. Os course, they still must declare as income all money paid to them as reimbursement. U.xpenses that ean be deducted under this rule are bus and taxi fares as well as the cost of gasoline, oil. auto repairs and depreciation of one's own car. But expenses of going just to and fropi your home and work cannot be deducted. The “outside salesmen" who do their selling outside their employer’s place of business can now deduct such business expenses as meals and allowable commission splits from gross income and still use the standard deduction as self- ' employed have previously. t Next: New rules for taxes on scholarships and giveaways.)

SENATE OKAYS (Coat In wed Fr«» Page One) munist party is a conspiracy — yon don’t have to prove anything more than membership in the Communist party.” Sen. John Marshall Butler (R Md.,) said he would offer six “clarifying” amendments to make the bill “workable” and Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D Minn.,) served notice that he would oppose some of the proposals. Butler, supported by Sen. Pat MeCarran (D Nev.,) declared that his revisions were endorsed by the justice department. He claimed that the measure in its present form would be “unworkable.” Senate approval of any of the Butler amendments would-send the bill l>ack to the house, which passed the measure, 305 to 2, as a substitute for an original senate bill make Communist party membership illegal. However, if the senate rejects any further amendments to the house version, the legislation would go to the White House where President Elsenhower was expected to approve tht> measure.

Susan Hays Appears Before Grand Jury To Relate Affair With Dr. Sheppard CLEVELAND (INS) — Attractive, 24-year-old Susaii Hayea appears before the county grand jfiry today to tel) of her West Coast love affair with accused wife-killer Dr. Samuel Sheppard, whA) is free on $50,000 bond. ' * ‘ 4 ; The pert brunette, who shattered “Dr. Sam’s” claim of loyalty to his wife by telling police of “intimacies" with the 30-year-old osteopath, is one of- the main witnesses to be called by prosecutors seeking a first degree murder indictment. The suburban Rocky River hospital technician, who moved to California to work early this year, is expected, to relate th the jury how she and "Dr. Sam" liv&i together for seven days at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Arthur Millet in Los Angeles. She has admitted to police that during that week. Dr. Sheppard told her that he did not love Marilyn" as a wife” but that he could not divhrce her because of his family. The grand jury must decide whether to indict him for the mysterious slaying of his wife. A decision may be forthcoming late today or Wednesday; Dr. Sheppard had been held in jail on a murder charge since M He was released on bond three hours beibrf prosecutor Frank T. Cullilan and his three assistants took the case to the grand Jury Monday. .. The $50,000 bond was granted for the suburban Bay Village doctor by common pleas judge Williayi K. Thomas. His action drew severe criticism from piollce officials and the prosecutor’s office. . Judge Thomas explained his action by pointing out that bail Cannot be set in first degree murder cases in which “the proof is evident or the presumption is great." In this case/ he continued, “there is n<:> evidence before me, only the statements made by prosecutors in vigorously opposing the-motion to set bail.” It is believed the state left itself vulnerable to the demand that Dr. Sheppard be released on bail because it did not want at this time to present evidence It presumably has acquired.

In the organization issue, the assembly is taking up the question of should any of the six presidents provided for in WCC regulations be permitted to succeed himself. In the evangelism issue, the assembly .is seeking to determine if reappraisal methods of evangelism is needed in order to "open ths door" of the churches to important groups of people in the eastern and the western world. The Rev. Theodore O. Wedel, canon of Washington Cathedral, spoke on the latter- issue 5 |>nday night when he said: "Are our doors really open-no color bar, fuR- weleetne for the repentant . . . no entrance meat of respectability or (of the good works of the Pharisee before we permit the convert to enter?” "True evangelism,” the canon added, "means moving into the slums of our great cities among the poor and down-trodden, the social and racial minorities, the skeptics and unbelievers." The top organizational problem is ~ the presenting of a structure acceptable to 161 Pibtestant and Eastern Orthodox denominations which are members—and srimul/taneously attracting other large groups who are not. Among these are the Americaif Southern Baptist convention, with ttonie seven and a half million members, and the Missouri synod of the Lutheran church, with an estimated two million.

Says Church, State Separation Effected Hungarian Bishop Speaks To Council EVANSTON, 111. (INS) — Bishop John Peter of the Reformed church of Communist Hungary »uid today that a separation of church and state is being effected in .Hungary a« a result of a religious reformation. r SF r9eDlen 1 tiae been re|7ned Wwe«fe chiitch and state ‘war an teeing the freedom of church life.” The bishop, in the United States on a restricted visa to attend the world council of churches at Ev> andon, declared In a speech prepared for delivery that the church has proclaimed -the "freedom of the church's way in the face of all opposing views” within the Iron Curtain country. He said that the agreement' concluded between the church and state, in addition to guaranteeing freedom in church life, “grants us a gradually decreasing state subsMy for the time of transition during which the church may become fully self-supporting.” The bishop added that where once the church "relied on the Income of apartment housee and landed estates,” it lives now "in an increasing measure, by what Its Lord decreed to sustain it,” — the offerings of the congregations. He said the state subsidy is reduced 25 percent every fifth year, ■<>* tuition occurring. on Jan. 1 of this year. Bishop Peter, whose presence at the world meeting of proteetant and orthodox representatives was bitterly opposed by some clergymen who denounced him as a Communist spy, said the present day preaching in Hungary i« "upon the most central message of the word of God.” He said former representatives of "theologically indifferent liberalistic and rationalistic trends” have been replaced and now “professors deeply rooted tn the holy scriptures, in the historic creeds of the church. In the present service of the church and in the wide fellowship of world Christendom" carry on their work in the theological academies. As a result, he said, “the spiritual pattern of our divinity etudents is so much better now than
