Brademas Announces Exams For The Three Service Academies

WASHINGTON, D. C. — Congressman John Brademas (DInd.) today announced that he will use the competitive system of nomination in filling one appointment each to the U. S. Air Force Academy at Colorado and the U. S. Military Academy at West Point, New York, and two to the U. S. Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md., available to the third congressional district in 1969. "In order to give every candidate a fair chance and to nominate the best qualified young men, J am continuing the policy of making these nominations on a competitive basis,” Brademas said. “The academies prefer this method and every young man has an equal opportunity for appointment.” Brademas used this method in making all his previous nominations to the service academies. A written examination prepared by the U. S. Civil Service Commission, especially for service academy aspirants, will be held at locations throughout the jfetion, including South Bend, on "Saturday, October 5. There will be a make - up examination on Saturday, Nov. 9, for those candidates who cannot report for the October examination. Brademas said that all prospective candidates from Elkhart, Kosciusko, Marshall and St. Joseph counties will be required to take this examination. They must notify him by September 3 of their desire to compete for the appointment and whether they desire to take the examination in October or November. Candidates must be between 17 and 22 years of age on July 1, 1969. Applicants should write to: Congressman John Brademas, 2134 Rayburn House office building, Washington, D. C. 20515. Brademas emphasized that the CSC examination is a preliminary test given to determine candidates for the academies. The candidates must then qualify for admission by passing written and physical examinations given directly by the academies. The Hoosier Congressman also announced that he is allowed to nominate 10 candidates to compete on a state - wide basis with other Congressional nominees for Indiana’s allotment of seven 1969 vacancies at the U. S.

Notice To Employees 10% Income Tax Surcharge Goes Into Effect

On June 28, 1968, President Johnson signed into law the 1968 Revenue and Expenditure Control ActJP. L. 90-364). This Act provides for a 10% income tax surcharge on income earned by both individuals and corporations. This additional tax is imposed on wages and salaries earned by individuals after April 1, 1968. Effective on all wages paid on July 14, 1968 and thereafter, we must withhold from your pay an amount sufficient to cover the increase in tax. The amount withheld covers the 10% income tax surcharge on the amount you earned from April 1, 1968 to the beginning of this pay period. What is a surcharge? A surcharge is not an increase in your income tax rates. It is a tax on a tax. This sounds confusing but it is really very simple. A surcharge increases the amount of tax you owe the government by tacking on a sum equal to 10% of the tax payable. For example: Employee's Income 1968 Jan. 1 to April 1 $1,250.00 April 1 to Dec. 31 3,750.00 Total Income ........ $5,000.00 Employee’s 1968 Tax $169.25 Basic Tax 507.75 Basic Tax 50.77 .. 10% Surcharge >. on $507.75 $727.77 Total Tax The 10% surcharge would increase the tax the employee pays by $50.77. The surcharge is not imposed on income earned from January 1 to April 1, 1968. Income earned in this period is subject only to the basic income tax. The effective increase in tax is only 7.5% for the year because one quarter of the year’s income is not subject to the surcharge. Why A Surcharge? Knowledgeable economists both in and out of government have long believed that in order to serve the national interest a tax increase is necessary. Unless we have a tax increase and unless government spending at all levels is reduced, the rate of inflation would increase at a faster pace (reducing the value of your dollar even more). The federal government has undertaken a wide range of programs which were ’designed to

improve the life of every American. In addition to these social programs, we are fighting a war in Vietnam. This has been called our “Guns and Butter’’ policy. The net result is a budget deficit (more federal expenses than federal income). The revenue act is designed to help balance our national budget. Without a tax increase, the government would spend $24 billion more in the fiscal year 1969 than the revenue it will tax in. The tax increase will produce about 14 billion additional dollars in the fiscal year 1969. The Act also provides that the government must cut its spending by six billion dollars (186.1 billion to 180.1 billion). You are not the only one who will feel the effect of the income tax surcharge. All corporations must pay an additinal 10% surcharge on the income earned from January 1, 1968. The costs of balancing our national budget will be shared by both corporations and individual taxpayers. When will the surtax expire? The 1968 Revenue and Expenditure Control Act provides that the surtax will expire on June 30, 1969. Congress could, of course, continue the surtax beyond this date. However, we hope that the surcharge will only be a temporary measure and corporations and individuals will not have to bear indefinitely this additional tax burden.
