to or greater than the amount speci-
fed above for his classification.
Neither the President of the United
States, nor the vice president, nor
Federal judges, nor members of Con-
gress, are exempt from filing returns.
Moreover, all income from what
ever source, unless specifically ex-
cluded by statute, must be reported
in the return. The types of income
specifically exempt are listed in the
instructions accompanying the return
form.
A person whose gross income does
not exceed $4,000, and consists wholly
Of salary, wages, dividends, interest,
or annuities, may make Simplified
Return on Form 1040A, in which the
tax due may be readily ascertained
by reference to a table contained in
the form.
A husband and wife living together
on July of the taxable year may
file separate Simplified Returns if
the gross income of each is from the
prescribed sources and does not ex-
coed $4,000, of they may file single
joint return on that form if their
combined income is from the pre-
scribed sources and does not exceed

income, together with any income OF
the spouse, was. as much as $1,000
for the year; that is, as much as
$23.08 per week. If husband and
wife both have income, they must
both make a return, Such return
may be made separately, or, if they
are both citizens or residents, they
may make a joint return. A joint
return may be made by husband and
wife even though one has no income,
and joint return is advisable in the
case OF persons, one of whom has
no income, who marry during the
year, since the personal exemption
attributable to each spouse during
the period of pre-martial status is
allowable in joint return.
A joint return must be signed by
both husband and wife and verified
by written declaration that it is
made under the penalties of perjury.
Where separate returns are filed by
husband and wife on Form 1040, the
joint personal exemption allowable
($l2O0 where the married status has
existed throughout the year, may be
taken by either, or divided between
them in any proportion agreed upon.
If separate returns are filed one may
not report income which belongs to
the other, but must report only the
income which belongs to him Cor

HOLLYWOOD, June ia
film reviewer can-be pardoned if
he feels unequal to his job when
something like Desert Victory"
comes along. Here is drama of the
kind that seldom gets on ceIlu-
ioid, for it is not make believe.
but real-the documentary story
of Montgomery's rise and Rom
mefs fall in the African desert.
Thanks to careful handling of
the script, this is a complete story
instead of 2 hodge-podge of news
leel shots. To tell what it is about
would be to repeat the history of
the desert campaigns of last Oc-
tober and November. But to tell
what the film contains-aye,
that's a job.
You begin to appreciate it when
you know that four soldier-cam-
eramen were killed in the making,
that seven were wounded and six
captured. Desert Victory" is the
British Eighth Army's own record
of its triumph; 100000 feet of film,
some of 1T captured, edited down
to a Commute story. So impress
ed was Prime Minister Churchill
with the finished product that he
had copies sent to President Roose-
welt and Josef Stain. The honor
of presenting the President with
d copy fell to 1t. Col. David Mac
Donald, one-time Hollywood di-
rector who headed the camera
units on the field.
=
The thing about the picture that
impresses you most is that there's
no dramatics. Aside from the ac-
tual battle scenes, everything
seems calm and unhurried. The
purpose of the men and machines
of war is dramatic enough. And
when the fireworks do come, they
arrive with sudden, breath-taking
ferocity. There is blood and FLYING
steel and biting sand and mud,

DIR. HAAKE OPENS: ! have mo-
Or. Alfred p. Haake
Celebrated Industrial Economist,
Lecturer. Radio Speaker,
and Writer.

DR.. HAAKE OPENS: have no
objection to. social security if the
people know exactly what they are
getting: state forced insurance. We
can't get security by passing law.
We get it by authorizing the Govern
ment to take an additional part of
our spendable income so that Gov
eminent can give it back to us later.
We could get a better value and
more security from private insurance
companies, but that is partly offset
by the fact that only about 20q6 of
the people will save voluntarily. If
they are willing to be forced to save,
it might be a good thing.
But this is not a very good time
to start it. Social security costs come
out of the workers pocket. Let's not
delude ourselves that the employer
pays any part of it. He can't because
his only income comes from the Gus
toner and the cost of social security
payments must be passed on to the
customer. InaSmuch as the worker is
also the customer, the worker pays
the bill If the employer tried to abb
sorb the cost, he would go broke and
employment would dry up. Under
present conditions, with taxes still
soaring and prices humping against
their weak ceilings, additional pay
roll deductions and price-pressures
would be unpopular and unwise.
DIR. BURNS CHALLENGES: have
yet to see any evidence that the
groups for whom social insurance
is designed could get better value
from a private insurance company
Nor will the worker pay the entire
cost, since a comprehensive insur-
ance program would include a con-
tribution from general tax revenue.
Additional payroll deductions at
this time would be neither unpopular
nor unwise. Organized labor has al
ready expressed its willingness to
accept higher wage taxes if they will
mean greater economic security for
workers in tie future. And since the
Government anti-infiationary policy
involves a search for additional tax
alton, to increase wage and payroll
taxes would help insure the success
of this policy.
DIR. HAAKE REPLIES: The worker
MOULD pay all the cost even if part
came from general tax revenues.
Even the Administration admits that
the rich have already been taxed to
the limit. There is no one left to tax
except the worker And remember,
today's phenomenally high wages are
not universal Millions of white collar
workers and people in distressed
businesses are very badly off. We
have no equitable plan ready to in
augurate now. We must know def
nitely where the money will come
from. In the words of Sir William
Beverage. Americas present social
security plan" is merely IAN argu-
ment for doing something"

GHOST
By SPOON RIVER SAM

You keep reading pieces about
New York suffering in the war
losing ground to other cities
Sounds like the place is on ifs
last legs, with nothing going on
but night life, the citizens sing
ing and dancing while their
ship goes down.
Some cities do fold I'D in war
time. Take Bernadotte in the
Spoon River country. 1t was
wiped out by one of Uncle Sans
enterprises. and the 100 folks
living there awarmed to other
parts.
But if New York really is a
ghost city, l claim it was quite
a place while it lasted. 1t has
bad a big part in our history.
and for that reason 1 say the
,nemory of it ought to be kept
alive. It's historical sections
ought to be preserved, or re-
built, as showplace for coming
generations.
And if we have folks roaming
around looking for jobs after
the war, l figure there ought to
be a resettlement project in New
Y
York. Send these people there,
and let EN- rebuild it.
No matter what happens, l
don't think the United States
should let New York go to pot.
It's just as important to us as
Alaska and the Hawaiian Is
lands. After the war, I. predict
it will come in mighty handy
as a port city.
There's too many folks in this
country too anxious to write
the other fellows obituary. But
I've got too much confidence in
Mayor LaGuardia to give up on
his city. Personally, l think
New York is here to stay.

NO CHEERS, NO TEARS, BUT
JUST PLAIN WAR

and death is in front of you, and
In back, and on both sides.
You see soldiers awaiting the
zero hour, their eyes straight
ahead, their faces set in expires
sions that only death up ahead
can bring. You hear a Scottish
bagpiper, marching ahead with
troops under fire, his step as
steady and unhurried as though
he were parading up Fleet Street.
You see a blast Tand the scene
ends, and you feel It was the last
picture that fighting cameraman
ever took. There are no cheers, no
tears-just plain war.
The story begins with Church
ills visit in the desert and the
arrival of Generals Montgomery
and Alexander to take command
in the uncertain days after the
fall of Tobruk. You may recall the
events, but the human side of the
campaign will ever be news.
Reinforcements arrive, includ-
ing American Sherman tanks.
Workers in British factories cheer
at good news over the public al
dress system. Montgomery takes
the lowliest private into his con-
fidence, believing that a citizen
army fights best when if knows
what is expected of it. And then,
drop by drop of blood, the cam
paign unfolds, and you cheer at
the triumphant conclusion - the
occupation of Tripoli and the col
lapse of Mussolini's paper-bag en-
pire.
It's great stuff. Movie fan or no,
it's a must.

Should We Improve Our
Social Security
System Now:
As debated by


DIR. EveIine Nj. Burns
Research Director, National Re
sources Planning Board; Co-anft'or,
american Cradle to Crare Security
Program.
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1943-06-19

DIR. BURNS OPENS: Definitely
yes! The postwar physical reconver-
sion of our economy will take time.
We cannot afford to leave millions OF
our people with inadequate incomes
pending their reabsorption into peace
time production Unemployment in
surance offers a way Of guaranteeing
income to these people. But present
laws need drastic change now if we
are to be prepared when the day
comes.
Second, there are many postwar
problems: freedom from want; full
employment; stable and acceptable
international relations. Social secur-
ity measures would at least assure
freedom from want and, by guaran-
teeing a minimum income, would
place a floor under our economy on
which to build more ambitious plans.
In the social security field we have
had experience and there is a broad
measure of agreement as to what
needs to be done. II seems stupid not
to complete this relatively easy part
of our postwar task before facing
the more challenging ana difficult
problems that remain.
Finally, believe that what we do
or do not do notu will be taken by
the ordinary man and woman as the
acid test of our devotion to the four
freedoms. of which freedom from
want is one. Here is our chance to
show to the world, by putting our own
house in order, that we mean what
we say.
DIR. HAAKE CHALLENGES:
Rather than expedite postwar recov-
cry. am afraid that additional social
security payments now would create
serious problems. The nation is al
ready groaning under an unprece-
dented tax burden-and more and
heavier taxes must come before VIC
tory can be achieved. Additional So
cial security payments would involve
one or more of the following: lower
wages, higher prices. or bankruptcy
in the case of employers who could
not lower wages or raise prices.
don't believe that the ordinary man
and woman will consider it viola
ton of the Four Freedoms if the Gov
eminent does not impose higher taxes
and lower living standards at this
time
DIR. BURNS REPLIES: You admit
that more and heavier taxes must
come. Why not tie them up to a So
cial security system that will guar
antee continuity of income for dis
placed workers in the difficult post
war readjustment period? To say
that we must wait until after the war
because only then shall we know
what we can afford overlooks the
fact that all proposals envisage only
minimum. Unless you accept pessi-
mistic views that our postwar in
come will fall to half its present level
or less, the question IS not what we
ran afford but how ,Dilling are we to
redistribute our total production to
insure that everyone has at least
minimum real security.
