A New Upside-Down
Cake
Cake

The Upside-Down Cake is known
to most Of us, but have you tried
one made with fresh fruit instead
Of the usual canned pineapple or
other canned fruit?
Last summer, an experiment with
wild blackberries made such an
impression upon those assembled
that requests from the family this
year resulted in repeat perform
ance. All agreed that memory had
played no prank and that the an
ticipated treat was worth waiting
for.
For the cake part, a simple bat
ter is desirable, since the fruit and
sugar and butter used make fairly
rich cake.

Revised Tax Bill Is Passed
by Congress In Past Week
changes in Senate Approved
by House. Major Hurdle
Now Out of Way.
FIVE MAIN CHANGES

WASHINGTON, June 23-Con.
gress today cleared one of its
major legislative hurdles when il
completed action on the 1884
100000 business-appeasement tax
bill and sent it to President
Roosevelt for signature.
Final approval of the measure
which kills the undistributed pro-
fits tax and makes other conces-
sions to business, came when the
House accepted changes made by
the Senate yesterday when il
passed it in record time.
The House fastened action by
dispensing with the usual for
mality of sending the bill to con-
ference. Instead, Chairman Ro-
bert L. Doughton's ways and
means committee reviewed the
amendments with both MAORI
ty and minority leaders who gave
their approval, and brought them
to the floor.
Reduces Potential Revenue.
Despite the fact that the bill
reduces potential federal reve-
nue. by between $30,0O0,000 and
$5O,OOO,OO0 and scraps the undis-
tributed profits levy, two chang
es which he opposed, Mr.. Roose-
welt has described it as good"
He is expected to sign it soon
after the attorney-generals office
has reported on its provisions.
Main provisions of the bill en-
acted today, and how they diff
fer from the old law, follow:
l. Undistributed profits tax is
killed and will be substituted
with a fit l8 per cent corpora
ton tax on firms with incomes
in excess of $4,000 annually
Current rates for incomes OF
$25. 900 or less are continued.
2. Corporations individuals and
partnerships will be permitted
after January l, to carry over
net operating losses for two years
to apply as a deduction against
gross income. The old law con-
tains no carryover provision fol
purposes of normal tax but per
mits a one-year carryover fol
purposes of the 2 IL per cent
undistributed profits levy.
8. So called nuisance take:
bringing in $544,0OO,O0O a year
and the Scent postage rate are
extended for two years. NC

John Donnelly
Honored By His
Insurace Co.

! John F. Donnel1y has just re-
turned from Blowing Rock where
he was accorded special honors
as a member of the Security
Leaders Club, honor organization

ty Life and Trust Company, of

Mr.. Donnelly, former West
jefferson high school principal
and for the past two years prin-
cipal of the Mooresville high
school, is spending this summer
at home here and is selling life
insurance.
He attained this special recog-
milton from the company he rep
resents by reasons of outstanding
production records in the past
month or longer, it is stated.

change of the old law.
4. The $4,000 limitation on
capital losses chargeable against
ordinary income is repealed.
S. Corporations in unsound fl
nancial condition are to be per-
mitted to buy in their bonds, de-
bentures and notes and retire
them, without the difference be-
tween the purchase price and
par being taxed as capital gain.
This is expected to operate to re-
duce fixed charges and debt
structures. The old law requires
