rs per cent of one full tax year
so as to get on ''pay-as-you-go"
basis. After much struggle, it was
agreed to throw out rs per cent
OF either 1912 or 1913, whichever
is the smaller This means that
che must estimate his 1S43 income
and compare the same with his
1912 income and pay the Is per
cent excess tax on whichever is
the larger. Now. I find my friends
are instinctively doing the wrong
thing by trying to show their 1943
income as small as possible when
! in many cases much money could
be saved in taxes by showing it
as large as possible. Let me IL
lustrate:
When taxpayer last December
sold securities at profit, he was
obliged to pay Is per cent in taxes
On said profit. T h s December,
however, if his 1913 income is
larger than his 1912 income. he is
obliged to pay a tax Of only 70
per cent of said Is per cent as
the Government '.forgives'' rs per
cent of either 1912 or 1913, which
ever is the smaller. This means
that this is a year when taxes
can sometimes be saved by TAX
ing profits as well as by taking
losses if tax payers will go at 1t
irtelligently. Hence, consult your
lawyer, banker or accountant.
Even industry gets one break
in the present tax law, namely, the
privilege of repla cling old machin-
cry with new machinery old mer-
chandise with new merchandise,
and all kinds of scrap with prof
liable items and having the gov
eminent pay most of the cost. BY
selling these outmoded things at
the present time, a business con-
Germ may save from 0-90 per cent
over what may be possible after
the war is over. Do so this De
cember as after World War II you
may not either have the money
TO buy the new equipment or the
aforementioned tax advantage.
Now just word for heirs and
charities. The present law allows
every taxpayer to give $4,000 this
year to any person without pay
ing a gift tax which in m ny
cases would ordinaril run from
2O-5O per cent. 1t further allows
the giving of IS per cent OF ones
income to charities which gift is
tax-exempt. For instance, per-
son in a so per cent bracket can
give away $1,000 with it costing
him only $500. Furthermore, If a
taxpayer gives away securities IN
stead of cash he can "a avoid

merely an alibi for laziness, inet'
ficiency and extravagant ideas.
Let us assume man with a

would be about $3.50. It is true
that he has this much less money

BUSINESS AS un.USUAL
By ]. E. JONES


National industries are engaged
in war production. Local business
es, including the butcher, the ba-
ker, the light maker, the publisher,
the banker, the shops and small
factories are feeling the pinches of
war as they try their best to oper-
ate under restrictions and con-
trolls. They have to conduct their
business affairs in unusual ways;
but-Americans are united in the
determination to do their full duty
to their country and bear the bur-
dens of sacrifice. A few weeks ago
merchants were in distress, asking
friends, what can 1 dO?" There
have been an unusually large num-
ber of business failures-but the
world wags on, with tremendous
changes in our business system.
Still, news writer's and correspond
ents must keep their heads cool.
their nerves steadily. Their editors
and publishers must serve their
communities, and keep their read
ers informed, and their columns
open to local advertisers to let the
public know what's doing in the
stores and markets.
It's Just up to all of us to do the
best we can while business is. un-
usual-and meanwhile pave the
way to restore business to the old
standards in the coming postwar
days.
