Rules Firms Must Pay Gross Income Hospital, Medical Insurance To Pay INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Atty. Gen Edwin K. Steers ruled Thursday that Blue Cross and Blue Shield hospital and medical insurance forms are subject to Indiana's gross income tax. The firms have not paid the tax on grounds they are non-profit organizations. They are incorporated as Mutual Hospital Insurance Inc., and Mutual Medical Insurance Inc. Steers said in his .official opinion the groups “are engaged in the business of insurance and that as such they are subject to gross income tax in the same manner as other insurance companies.” Norman J. Beatty, counsel for the state gross income tax division, said he expects the case will be taken to court. A separate regulation places a gross income tax of 1 per cent of gross earnings on insurance companies. , Beatty said the revenue gained under Steers' opinion would be a “large amount.” * j? himmci jiA New Address Mr. and Mrs. Noble Lobsiger have received the following change of address for their son Bob, who is presently stationed in Tokyo, Japan: A/2c Robert D.

Ask Elimination 01 Farm Regulations Farm Bureau Parley Studies Resolution ,‘ ■ ' ■ ■ ' ' -,'■■■• ■ ‘-a - ' MIAMI BEACH (UP) — The American Fargn Bureau Federation was asked today to approve resolutions calling for gradual elimination of government regulation of individual farming operations and for continued support of the administration's soil bank program. The federation resolutions committee presented a rejiort recommending basic policy on the farm front and in labor, economics, natural resources and foreign affairs. Some 6,000 delegates, attending the 38th annual convention, will vote on the recommendations today. The resolutions committee recommended a "comprehensive review” of the present national farm program by the AFBF board of directors. The resolution asks the directors to study changes "necessary td achieve our objective of gradually eliminating government regulation of individual farming operations as rapidly as possible." A study of “more equitable” treatment for farmers under federal, state and local tax laws also was suggested. The committee also called for continued support by farmers of the soil bank program as a means of adjusting agricultural production to effective market demand but it added, “we do not consider it the responsibility of the government to guarantee profitable prices to any group.” Trade in a Gout Town —De Ji C Mrs. Dorothy Barchard THE FBI is on the lookout for 19-year-old Mra, Dorothy Frances Barchard—object con- ’ venation.

Early Christinas ’ Mailing Is Urged Time Grows Short To Insure Delivery Postmaster Leo Kirsch said today that the mounting volume of Christmas mail makes it vitally important for everyone to hilp on the “Mail Early for Christmas” program. He reports that the flow of Christmas cards is running about the same as last year, but mailing of gifts by parcel post seems to be behind schedule and distant shipments will probably arrive late unless patrons use special handling, special delivery or air mail from nowon. Christmas cards for distant points should be in the mail not later than December 15 and local cards should be mailed not later than December 20 to insure Christmas delivery. The postmaster expressed his thanks for the cooperation so far by Christmas mailers. To the inevitable last mipute mailers he suggests the use of first class and air mail for distant points. The local office expects the Christmas load to hit its peak in the next few days, and it is expected to exceed last year’s records . To take care of the last minute rush, the post office will remain open from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. including Saturday, December 15 and Saturday, December 22. The postmaster also reminds Decatur patrons that the postal station at Holthouse’s on the Highway will be open for all postal services except international money orders and parcels, from 8 a.m. until 9 p.m. every day. Even though there is still plenty pf time for local deliveries, the postmaster suggest that all Christmas cards be sent by first class mail. First class postage on the cards enables the sender to include handwritten messages, thus making the Christmas greetings more personal. “By including your name and address on each Christmas card envelope, both you and your friends can keep mailing lists up-to-date and first class mail will be forwarded and in the event of failure of delivery will be returned to the sender,” Kirsch said. In summing up the present situation, the postmaster said, “Try to bring your parcels and Christmas cards to the postal windows before IB a.m. or between 1:30 and 3:30 p.m., to avoid the peak hour rushesand bring your mail in soon.” - New Hampshire was first settled in 1623, just three years after the landing of the Pilgrims, when a settlement was made at Odiome’s Point, now the town of Rye.
