STOCKS SLUMP IN DULL DEALINGS ON. NEW YORK MARKET
Industrial Average For Week Down 10 Points.
NEW YORK, Jan. 29 (U. P.).—Stocks declined today in dull trading, rounding a week of recession in which the industrial average was depressed nearly 10 points. Steel issues bore the brunt of selling today on outlook for little improvement in the industry next week. The most important center —Pittsburgh—was scheduled to register a small decline in operations. Another indication of the situation was the action of United States Steel Corp. in announcing that, effective Feb. 1, the corporation and its subsidiaries would apply the share-the = work movement to “white collar” workers with salary cuts and reduced hours. There was no indication that big steel planned a wage reduction when it takes up negotiations with the C. I. O. next week. United States Steel sold off to 517%, off 1%: Bethlehem 433%, off 3, : Crucible 34%, off 3%; Crucible preferred 82, off 5; Inland 64, off 21; ‘and Republic 16%, off Is. Youngstown Sheet & Tube firmed > point. Nonferrous metal issues Were slightly lower. Farm issues came back in dull trading and International Harvester gained nearly 2 points. Rubbers were down. Mail order shares were mixed.

WHEAT FUTURES DIP TO NEW LOW AGO PIT
Scattered Buying and Low Export Demand Force Corn Prices Down.
CHICAGO, Jan. 29 (U. P.)— Wheat futures sank to a new low for the current movement on the Chicago Board of Trade today, depressed by reports of rain in the winter wheat area, prospects of continued wet weather in that section during the coming week, and the absence of any important export business. At the close wheat was 3 to 1% cents lower, May 923; cents; corn was % to 5% cent lower, May 591% cents and oafs were 4 to 4 cent lower, May 31'% cents. ‘ The purchase by Portugal of between 2,200,000 and 2,405,000 bushels of United States, Australian, and Argentine wheat was confirmed but this information, instead of encouraging traders to the bull side, had little or no effect on the market. Trade in the wheat pit was confined mainly to commission house selling with some buying from shipping interests. Corn yielded fractionally and automatically with the decline in wheat. Commission houses sold May and there was some spreading between that month and July. Buying was scattered. Carlot receipts were somewhat higher while export demand was said to be extremely slow. Liverpool closed % to cent lower with no support from outside speculative interests. Profit taking reversed the trend of early firmness. Winnipeg, Minneapolis and Kansas City sagged.

EXEMPTIONS ALLOWED COUPLES MARRIED DURING TAXABLE YEAR
should note that under the Revenue Act of 1936 the credit for dependents as well as the personal exemption is required to be prorated where a change of status occurs during the taxable year, and that these credits are allowable not only for the purpose of computing the normal tax but also the surtax. A fractional part of a month is to be disregarded unless it amounts to more than half a month, in which case it is considered a month. For example, a single man and a single woman who were married on July 20, 1937, and were living together on the last day of the may file a joint return. returns on the basis of the calendar year, they would be entitled to a personal exemption of $2208.34, which is seven-tweliths of $1000 for the husband while single, plus seven-twelfths of $1000 for the wife while single, plus five-twelfths of $2500 for the period during which they were married. each is entitled to a personal exemption of $1104.17, rgeven-tweliths of $1000, plus one-half of five-twelfths of $2500, during the year 1937 the husband or the wife had the status of the head of a family prior to their marriage, he or she would be entitled to his or her pro rata share of the personal exemption of $2500 allowed the head of a family for the period prior to their marriage instead of merely that allowed a single person. However, for the period of their marriage any exemption to which either might be entitled as the head of a family would be merged in the joint personal exemption for that period. The joint per= sonal exemption allowable in the case of a couple who were married and living together during the entire year may not exceed
If a child under 18 years of age and dependent on the parent support reaches the age of 13 years during the taxable year, the credit of $400 for a dependent is required to be prorated in the same manner as the personal exemption. For example, should the child's 18th birthday fall on June 30, the parent would be entitled to claim $200 credit for the dependent child—=that is, one-half of $400. The same rule applies to othér dependents where a change of status occurs during the taxable year.

Heavyweights Rise 10 Cents To Top of $9
Failing to respond yesterday to improved levels around the market circle, the hog market today added generally 10 cents to all weights of barrows and gilts scaling about 169 pounds, according to the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. Best 160 to 180-pound butchers again carried off the top which advanced to $9. Packing sows held fully steady at $6.40 to $7 for the bulk, good lightweights quotable to $7.25. Today's cattle trade was quoted nominally steady with only 25 head of fresh arrivals estimated. Compared with the close last week, all slaughter steers and yearlings are fully 25 cents lower, with spots off more on plain and medium offer ings. Lightweight heifers and cutter grade cows ended fully steady, while weighty heifers and beef cows are weak to mostly 25 cents lower. Bulls lost 25 cents, while stockers and feeders moved in a weak to 25 cents lower trade. A few loads of good medium weight steers made $8.15 to $8.50 during the week, but bulk comprised medium and good grades of steers and yearlings selling from $6.75 to $8, a few loads of plain offerings stopping from $6 to $6.50. Most heifers were plain and medium sorts at $5.75 to $7, a few lots of good offerings reaching $7.50 and $8. Beef cows bulked from $5 to $5.75, odd head at $6, with low cutters and cutters clearing from $4 to $5. The late practical top on sausage bulls was $6.25, only a few making $6.50. Most desirable feeding steers bulked Friday at $1150 to $12, with the top $12. Today's sheep and lamb trade was quoted nominally steady, and compared with the close last week, fat lambs show no change exeept for some weakness on fed western offerings. Fed yearlings are 25 cents lower. Good and choice native and fed western lambs bulked on the close from $7.50 to $8, with an extreme top of $8.25 for choice west= erns paid late.
