Clemenceau's daughter by his 1rst
wife has been given the freedom Of
the city OF Stamford, Conn. 1t was
there that her mother and father
met In days OF his exile and his
romance period OF life. and quite
naturally the child Of the union
wished to see the community, now
much changed. OF course. but still
having retaining much that is dis
tinctive of the section and quite
novel % the experience of O Pa
risian Journalists and stateman's
daughter.
There were times in Connecticut's g
history when Mademoiselle Clemen-
ceau would not have had as formal
or as cordial reception.
Mary Pickford goes Englandward In
a month or SO. and as the London
Times has said. ''She will find more
friends than perhaps any exponent
of art ever found in a country not
directly addressed" This Is not as
lucid a statement, as the Times usual.

what IL means in substance is, that
Our Mary has more friends won
by the cinema" awaiting her, than
would appear to welcome any other
American woman.
Indeed, the Times might have gone
farther in its statement. Were she
to tour the British Empire, pene-
trate Uganda lodge for a time at
Cape Town. disport herself at Mel
bourne. and trade with the Chinese
at Hong Kong, il would still be a
true saying. But in emphasizing ge-
ogrsphy let not aesthetics be forgot

Inco ONE Tax Facts Worth KnoUine

wagons may be claimed, also the
cost of farm tools which are used
up in the course of a year or two.
The cost of machinery of a per-
manent character, such as a
threshing machine or tractor. is
held to be a capital investment, and
is not an allowable deduction. Rent
paid for a farm is deductible.
SASS per Week for Food.
The principles underlying these al
)lowances are equally applicable to the
conduct of any trade, business, or pro-
fession. In short, all expenses con-
nected solely and directly with the
conduct of an income-producing busi-
ness. trade, profession, or vocation are
allowable.
Deductions for Losses.
Losses incurred by a taxpayer in
any transaction entered into for profit
outside of his regular business are al
lowed. Under the 1917 act deductions
for such losses were allowed only to
the extent of gains in similar trans
actions.
If. for example. a person made 81 900
in one stock market transaction and
in another lost 5000 he was required
to include the $1,000 in his return of
gross income, and could deduct only
that amount as a loss. Under the
current act he Is allowed a deduction
of 1900.
A reasonable allowance is made for
depreciation of business property and
oesolescence. and for the depletion of
oil and gas wells and other natural
deposits.
Contributions or gifts made during
the year 1919 to corporations organized
for Charitable, scientific, religious. or
educational purposes. or for the pre-
vention of cruelty to animals or to the
special fund for vocational rehabilita-
tion may be deducted to an amount
not exceeding Is per cent of the tax
payers income.
Other DeducfibIe Iteml.
Other items which may be deduct
ed are as follows:
Taxes paid or accrued during the
year 1913, except income, war proHts.
or excess-profit taxes. and those as
sessed against local benefits of a kind
tending to improve the value of the
property.
Loss of property not connected with
trade or business arising from fires.
storms, shipwreclS, or other casualty
or from theft, II not compensated
fore by insurance or otherwise.
Debts ascertained to be worthless
and charged OFF within the year.
Interest paid or accrued on indebt-
edness except Indebtedness incurred
to purchase securities, the interest
upon which 10 exempt from tax.

Chamber is Looking Forward

Cham ber Is Looking Forward.
/ called on ARTHUR Z. SEYMOUR,
the able live-wire secretary of the
Washington Chamber of Commerce
and found him up to his eyes in mat
ters of moment to the association
and the community. He was partic-
ularly enGrossed with affairs that are
to come before the annual meeting OF
the c. of c., January l3. This is What
he says in the Booster"
The Chamber OF Commerce is to be
congratulated upon the fact that II
is standing upon a firm financial ba-
sis: that it has had a steady and
substantial growth in membership
during 1919 and there is plainly evil
dent a much stronger and more gen.
eral spirit of interest and helpfulness
and desire to work for the advance
ment of both the chambers and the
city's interest than has hitherto been
exhibited.
What OF the future? With the ex-
ercise of care and good judgment in
the selection of the officers and the
new directors who are to shape our
policies. we will have the right to
fen that our past achievements are
only the needed incentive to bring
greater and far-reaching results to
Washington in 1920 through the
agency of the Chamber of Commerce" q"
At the forthcoming annual meeting.
a president, two vice presidents and
ten directors are to be elected. A
large attendance of members is fore
caSted.
