Income Tax
Prepared by Bureau OF
Internal Repenne,
Treasury Dept.
What Il 4 Family?

In one household" is . phrase
which confropts many taxpayers
when they come to make out their
income tax returns. What do the
regulations mean when they classify
as the head of family one who
actually supports and maintains "in
one household" q certain number
of dependents?
Income tax regulations are not
straight and narrow In Interpreting
this phrase. 1t may mean the tax
payers personal residence, an apart
ment, rooms in . boarding house,
living quarters In . hotel or such
other place rs she or he may occupy
as . temporary or permanent resi-
dence.
1t is not always necessary that a
taxpayer and his dependents live
under one roof the whole year
round in order that he be allowed
the exemption given the head of q
family. If the common home is
maintained, and the parent Is away
much of the time on business, or a
child is away at school or on 4
visit, that is still "one household"
and the exemption is allowed. It
may be unavoidable for q parent to
keep his dependent children with
relatives or In 4 boarding house
while he lives elsewhere-that con-
stitutes "one household" But q
person who, without necessity, gives
the dependent Of another a home
is not, under the income tax regu-
lations, the head Of q family.
Another term that may be. in some
cases, confusing or perplexing to
many taxpayers is Giving together" !"
in the case Of husband and wife.
Again the income tax regulations
are liberal in interpreting a phrase
which, precisely defined, might do
an injustice to taxpayer. When a
common home is maintained and
1t becomes necessary for the huS-
band to be away on business occa-
sionally and temporarily, or the wife
is absent on visit, the $1,000 ex-
emption still applies. The relation
is not changed, neither is the ex-
emption forfeited, If either husband
or wife is unavoidably confined in
a sanatorium. If, however, the hus-
band continuously makes his home
in one place and the wife her home
at another. they are not living to-
gether" within the meaning of the
Internal Revenue Code.

Superior 10 Nazis'
Far Greater Ronge Is
Reported From Use Of
leokproof Containers

the leakproof gasoline tanks Of
Americas newest warplanes, con-
gressional sources declared today,
not only are superior to German
and British types, but also give the
planes far greater range.
Legislators in close touch with
military developments said the sub
stance perfected by the United
States Army for protecting airplane
fuel tanks from gun fire was 50
much more efficient than types used
abroad that thinner layers could
be used taking up less room inside
the metal tanks and displacing less
fuel.
The substance, a refinement Of
that first used for the purpose by
the Germans, consists chiefly OF soft
rubber which when perforated by
bullets automatically seals itself and
almost completely prevents leakage.
Although satisfactory protection
against 80 or so caliber machine
gun flre. the sealing is not, Of course,
proof against the projectiles Of air
craft cannon, the sources said.
1t also was learned that the Army
Air Corps plans to put its aircraft
purchasing on a long-range basis.
That, ofncials explained, is the pur-
pose behind the Army's plan to ask
Congress soon for authority to build
II 900 additional airplanes.
Superimposed on the current
Is, 900 plane program, the increase
would give the Air Corps total of
36, 900 planes Of all types, but would
be projected over a long period so
manufacturers could plan their pro-
duction well In advance. Such
program also was expected to
stabilize employment in the industry

Large numbers of white troops

The British at Barentu, IS miles

der. represented the right flank of
a force advancing upon Asnara,
the capital.
The British left flank continued
to consolidate its positions for an
attack on Cheren, IS miles to the

British officers regarded the forth
coming attack on Cheren, natu-
rally strong defensive position. as
the crux of their campaign to seize

said, would mean the capture OF
