CAREER OPEN
TO JOURNALISM STUDENTS

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu-
gene, Jan. ga suitable career in
three directions for graduates OF the
school Of Journalism Of the Univer-
sity of Oregon, were outlined last
Friday, evening by Dean Eric w. AL
len before the Oregon newspaper
conference, in brief retrospect OF
the school during the past eight
years.
He indicated three of these-wri-
ters, executives and administrators
in big newspaper offices, apd pub
fishers of country papers and trade
journals.
The school, he said. takes as much
interest In the ultimate success OF the
student as In obtaining his first posi-
tion, and directs its training toward
that end.

pendent upon him for chief support Il
such person is under Is years OF age
or incapable Of self-support because
mentally or physically defective. The
words physically defective" refer
not only to cripples, but to persons
, defective because OF old age or III
health. Neither residence, relation
ship, nor legal dependency are fac.
tors In determining the right OF the
taxpayer to such exemption. To es-
tablish his claim, the taxpayer must
have contributed during the year
more than one-half OF the sum need
ed for the dependents support.
Allowable Exemptions
The following are concrete ex-
amples OF circumstances which gov
ern the exemptions allowed the head
Of a family and for dependents:
A son who has left home sends his
mother more than half the sum re-
quired for her support. He is allowed
an exemption Of 5000. unless the
mother Is able to support herself, in
which case the contribution Is re-
garded as a gift.
A son living at home supports an
invalid mother In the sams house
hold. He Is allowed a deduction OF
$4,000 as the head OF a family, plus
an additional $500 for his dependent,
who is physically incapaciated. ct
should be noted that the 5000 add!-
tional exemption for dependents does
not apply to husband or wife. even
though either one has be ,ome a total
burden upon the other.i
A single man lives with and sup
ports a mother SO years OF age and
two sisters 10 and 81 years Of age, all
in good health. His exemption is
$4,000 as the head of family. Since
his mother and sisters are neither
under IS years of age nor mentally
or physically incapacitated, he can
not claim an additional exemption
for dependents.
A widower is the entire support OF
a child under IS years Of age, His
exemption is 1890. IL is not the
head of family. and is entitled only
to the 5000 for a dependent.

FACTS ABOUT

Thousands Of letters passed in cor.
respondence last year between the
bureau of international revenue and
persons claiming an exemption of
$4,000 as head of n family. Circum-
stances surrounding each individual
case determine largely whether q per-
son IL entitled to such exemption.
The fixing of his status decides, in
many instances. whether his income
Is taxable or nontaxable. In either
event, II his net income for 1920 was
$1,000 or more II single, and $1,000
or more II married, he must file re-
turn.
A head of family Is defined by
treasury regulations az "a person
who actually supports and. maintains
In one household one or more indi-
viduals who are closely connected
with him by blood relationship, rela-
tionship by marriage or by adoption,
or whose right to exercise family

LONGEVITY 0N THE DECREASE
University Professor Thinks 1t Is, and Gives Some Cogent Reasons Why
 lt Should Be.

Prof. Raymond Pearl of Johns HOp- kins, after an exhaustive study of life probability extending through a histor- ic period of two thousand years, ar rives at the conclusion that while mans possibilities of life at birth and in earlier stages has been steadily im- proving, his expectation of life at ad- vanced age has been steadily decreas- ing. Comparisons ranging from the Romano-Egyptian to the present day offer statistical proof. The theoretical explanation Is that in early times, with less provision for the protection of babies and infants, only the more rug ged pulled through. Nowadays with increasing care for childhood, the weak are carried into adolescence and adult hood Where formerly only the tittest or toughest managed to reach the shady slope of life, and were conse- quently more likely to hang on to ripe old ages, the salvaging of the weaker brings them into the f1fties and sixties with less hope of prolonged life. It sounds plausible and may explain the apparent decrease of longevity. Incl dentally, his statistics brought out the fact that while women formerly had less expectation of life Ai all ages,
