YOUR INCOME TAX
Expert Advice Given by United
States Internal Revenue Bureau
Based on Latest Changes
in Legislation.
ARTICLE NO. Is.

Deductions for contributions or gifts
are limited to Is per cent of the tax
payers net income as computed without
the benefit of the provisions of the law
allowing such deduction. This means
that from the total of all the taxable
items there is subtracted all allowable
Observation-Disclosures expenses, losses,
taxes, etc.-eXcept contributions, the re-
mainder being the amount upon which
the Is per cent limitation is based.
A new provision Of income tax legis-
'ation is that if during the taxable year
1924 and in each of the 10 preceding
taxable years the amounts contributed
for purposes specified by the revenue
act of 1924 exceeds 90 per cent of the
taxpayers net income las computed
without the benefit of this paragraph
the full amount of such contributions
and gifts made within the taxable year
Is deductible.
Claims for deductions for contribu-
tions or gifts must be substantiated.
Taxpayers are required to state in their
returns the name and address of each
organization to which a gift was made
and the approximate date and the
amount of the gift in each case.
Gifts to an individual are not de-
ductible, but If made to an organization
described by the act-religious, charita-
Die, scientific, literary or educational
may be deducted, even though the or
ganization distributes its funds to in
dividuals. A church constitutes a re-
ligious organization for the purpose of
this deduction. Donations made to mis-
sionary funds, to church building funds,
pew rents and assessments and dues
paid to churches are regarded as con-
tributions.
Deductions for contributions for
political campaign purposes are not al
lowed.

ARTIFICIAL SILK
IN GREAT DEMAND
Eormer Powder Plants Make
Heavy Profits in New
Peace-Time Output
BY j. c. ROYLE.
special Disnatcb to The Star

special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, February 6-The
great manufacturers of munitions
and war supplies have found in the
last year that peace has it's victories
no less renowned than war. This ap-
plies specially to some of the great
makers of explosives such as the Du-
pont de Nemours Co. and the Atlas
Powder Co. Products which former
1y contributed to cannon fodder
now are being used to supply artifi-
cfal silk, dye stuffs, chemicals, leath-
er CLOTH lacquer and enamels.
The demand for artificial silk is
such that there seems small doubt
that prices for second quarter de-
livery will be advanced between 10
and so cents a pound. Plants are
booked solid until April 1 and the
Dupont de Nemours Co. marketed the
first of the output from its great new
plant at Old Hickory, Tenn, former
ly devoted to the supplying of NUM-
tions to the United States and the
allies, this week.
New Output Mark Reached.
Production and consumption of
artificial silk have touched new high
points in the last IL months. Domes-
tic business alone is expected to ex-
ceed the sales of 1924 by about 4,000-
900 pounds, while world demand is
expected to reach 150,0e0,000 pounds.
The extent of the growth of this new
Industry can be estimated when 1t is
realized that natural six production
probably will be under 100000, 600
pounds this year. Every American
maker has extensive programs for
expansion under way and some new
companies are expected to come into
production before 1925. Foreign pro-
ducers, in many instances, have al
ready contracted for all the artificial
silk they can deliver in this country
up to April l.
All Grades to Advance.
Right now supplies in second hands
are being held at a premium of about
rs cents a pound above the regular
price scale so that advances which
may be announced when books are
5pened for second quarter business
between February Is and March will
not be unexpected. Every big manu-
facturer expects to turn out from
100000 to $500, 600 pounds more than
in 1924.
The largest price advance undoubt-
edly will be in the lower grades, such
as B and C. In some sizes the quo
tations on a grade will remain un-
changed, but this will probably not
apply to 150-denfer, for which the
keenest demand has been manifested
Whatever prices are quoted at the
new openings, they will still be far
below the costs of natural raw silk.
For example. the 150-denier A grade,
artificial, will probably be listed at
about 81 a pound, whereas Japanese
double extra cracks now are quoted
around $6.75 a pound.
Hosiery, knit goods and other tex
tile manufacturers are making a
strong stand against price advances,
asserting that the cause of the huge
increase in demand has been stability
in price.
Evening star., 1925-02-06

beets during the coming season are
unlikely, due to the probability of a
large carryover of sugar from last
years crop. The IA per cent increase
in world sugar production for the
1924-25 season over the previous rec
ord production in 1923-24 caused a dis
tinct decline in world prices.
Enough Beans Being Raised.
"a bean crop in 1925 in excess of
domestic needs would tend to put the
price of the entire crop on an export
basis, thus losing to the grower the
benefit of the tariff of S1.O5 a bushel.
An increase in acreage seems un-
desirable.
FLAX acreage may still be increased
somewhat before production with
average yields will equal the present
consumption demand. 1t seems prob
able that fax prices in the United
States will be on a relatively higher
level than wheat during the next
crop year If production is below the
domestic requirements.
ANY substantial increase in pea
nut acreage in 1925 over that of last

beans, peanuts and citrus fruits
should be- made" but urges the in
crease Of the growth Of fax.
The large potato crop last year was
not due to large acreage, but to an
unusual yield from the acreage al
ready planted, and the department
feels that an acreage slightly larger
than that of 1924 would be profitable
present high prices for sweet po-
tatoes," the ort'continued, Should
not influence growers to plant
largely increased acreage of this crop
this year. Present prices are more
the result of low yields in 1924 than
a short acreage. An increase of more
than 10 per cent over 1924 acreage
with an average yield is likely to
produce more sweet potatoes than
can be marketed profitably.
ANY increase in tobacco acreage
this year Is undesirable, excepting
perhaps in some of the flue-cured
types. While the price outlook for
most types of tobacco Is better now
than last year, stocks on hand are
still large.
Higher prices for sugar and suga.

year may result in lower prices.
Present conditions indicate that
increased paintings of citrus fruits
and Western grapes should be dis
couraged and that any paintings OF
apples, peaches and pears and other
tree fruits should be confined to the
best commercial sections and to the
gradual replacement of old farm
orchards in localities where a good
local market seems assured.
During 1925 there probably will be
a sustained or slightly increased
demand for such vegetables as let
tuce, celery, spinach and cucumbers
but little prospect for any increase
in the demand for cabbage and
onions and for such staple canning
crops as corn and tomatoes. There
are indications. however, that during
recent years the production of vege-
tables has been increasing rather
more rapidly than the demand and
the tendency seems to be toward
generally lower prices with increased
competition between the various
commercial producing sections"
