NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-The ten
dency to pocket profits stalled re-
covery for many stocks In today's
market although individual spots Of
strength persisted.
Nervousness over developments In
the Solomons again was given as
an excuse for the tightening OF COM
mitments here and there despite
optimism over further Russian bat
tie successes. Individual domestic
news items affected some issues, and
while Wall Street still was In .
bullish mood, cautionary signals
were being sounded by several In
vestment counselors on the idea the
market had not undergone sufacient
technical correction.
The list was irregularly improved
at the start but early plus MARKS
were trimmed or erased later and,
near the close, losses running to q
point or 50 were scattered over the
ticker tape. Blocks Of low-priced
performers, the majority Of which
was about unchanged. propped vol.
ume which, for the two hours, was
around 500, 900 shares.
Distilling company stocks stuIn-
bled over the proposal to sharply
curtail public liquor consumption.
Refusal Of the rails to respond to
near-record earnings was . depres-
SAINT for sentiment.
General Motors and Continental
Motors registered best marks for
more than year. Montgomery
Ward. Sears Roebuck and Standard
Oil IN. j. established new 1919
tops.
Du Pont skidded as the company q

Your Income Tax
No. 34-Deductions for Casualty Losses and Thefts

Losses arising from fires, storms,
shipwrecks, or other casualty, or
from theft, are allowable deduc-
tions in computing net income for
Federal income tax purposes. Thus,
If a taxpayers home is destroyed by
fire or damaged by food or storm,
or his automobile is wrecked, or If
his property is stolen, he may claim
a deduction for the loss sustained
and not compensated for by in
surance or otherwise. The amount
of such loss, If incurred in connec-
ton with a trade or business, is en-
tered in Schedule H to arrive at the
net profit Tor loss) shown in item 8
of the return; other losses are en-
tered as item Is of deductions in
return, form 104O, and must be ex-
planned IN schedule c of the return
form.
The intent of the law regarding
deductions for casualties, generally,
is to allow for losses caused by natu-
raj forces. Such losses may be either
of a personal or business nature.
To be an allowable deduction. the
loss may not arise from the willful
act or negligence Of the taxpayer.
Damage sustained to ones car by
collision or accident. Tor instance, is
a deductible loss, unless the damage
is due to a willful act or negligence
on the part of the taxpayer. Faulty
driving would not be classified as
negligence. but driving while intoxi-
Gated would be SO regarded.
Proof Is Required.
Likewise, in the case of claims for
loss of property by theft or burglary
1t must be established that the prop
erty actually was stolen, and not
merely mislaid or lost.
In the case of insured property
the amount of recovery through in
surance must be taken into account
in determining the amount of loss.

Reported Planning 10
Quit Divided WPB
BestowoI Of Expanded
Powers on Wilson Is
Confirmed by Nelson
BY the Associated Press,

1
Chairman Donald M. Nelson of
the War Production Board last night
issued administrative orders Official
ly confirming the expanded powers
he has bestowed on Vice Chairman
Charles E. Wilson. former president
Of General Electric Co.
Mr.. Wilson was made responsible
for AL production activities" of
WPB.
There were persistent reports,
meanwhile, that supporters in WPB
of Vice Chairman Ferdinand Eber-
stadt-who lost seven key divisions
to Mr.. Wilson in the shufde-were
talking Of resignation. One high Of
fetal described WPB as house
divided against ITSELF" There was
no indication that Mr.. Eberstadt
himself intended to leave.
An associate Of the WPB chair
man quoted Mr.. Nelson as declaring
"11l accept any designations that
come in" when the possibility of
STAN defections was mentioned.
Transferred Intact.
The administrative orders. re-
portedly held up for many weeks
pending q decision on Mr.. Wilson's
demands for control of several Of
the divisions under Mr.. Eberstadt,
announced that the units were
transferred to MIR. Wilson intact
with functions. personnel, records
and budgeted funds"
It was said, however, that Mr..
Wilson's Jurisdiction over "all pro-
duction activities" did not extend
to the production OF raw materials,
except those handled by the Alum
inum and Magnesium Division,
which went to Mr.. Wilson In the
shufde.
The other units were the Ship
building, Automotive, Tools, Safety
and Technical Supplies. General In
dustrial Equipment Divisions and
the Facilities Bureau.
Critical Components."
Mr.. Nelson explained that these
divisions were the ones intimately
connected with Mr.. Wilson's respon-
| sibilities for expanding the output
Of critical components" essential
to the munitions program. The
''components'' are such items O.
bearings, valves. boilers, gears, heat
exchangers and instruments needed
by the manufacturers Of virtually
every type Of armament.
Aside from the transfer Of the
units, there was little change In the
organization Of Mr.. Wilson's estab-
1ishment. Provision was made, how
ever, for director general Of wal
production" under him. There was
however, no immediate indication
Of who might be chosen to fill this
new post.
The director general of war pro-
duction, 1t was said, should be re.
sponsible for developing genera
policies with respect to the most
efficient and effective use OF facili.
ties and labor In carrying produc.
! ton schedules into operations"
Evening star., 1943-02-06
The amount of loss allowable

The amount of loss allowable In
the case of property damaged or
destroyed is frequently difncult Of
determination. A general rule is
that the loss is measured by the
difference in the value of the prop
erty Immediately before and imme-
diately after the casualty. The loss
on a wrecked car would be the dif-
ference between its market value
just before the accident and the
salvage value after the accident. In
the case OF trees. or ornamental
shrubbery, destroyed by sleet or
snow storm, the measure of the loss
Is the loss in the value Of the prop
erty of which they were a part, that
is, the reduction in the value of the
property arising from the casualty.
This may or may not be the same
as the value of the particular trees
or shrubs destroyed.
Sentiment Excluded.
In determining the amount of
loss, also, sentimental values are
excluded, for the reason that such
values are not susceptible to meas
urement. Losses claimed must, in
general be related to market value
Of the property affected by the cas-
ualty. Losses claimed for the de-
struction. damage, or theft of family
portraits, heirlooms, or keepsakes,
must be based upon loss OF intrinsic
value apart from the sentimental
value
A further rule regarding deduc-
tions for losses from casualties and
thefts is that such losses are de-
ductable only In the year In which
they are sustained, even though
they may not be discovered until q
year later.
A deduction for loss from casualty
or theft may be allowed only to the
owner Of the property with respect
to which the loss is sustained.

Truman Committee
10 Probe Concrete
Barge Work Further
lond Asserts Contracts
With MocEvoy Firm
Will Be Reuudited
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Senate War Investigating
Committee planned today to ex.
plore further the concrete barge
construction program at the Mac.
Evoy Shipbuilding Corp. yards ir
Savannah, Ga.
The corporation, headed by Cliff
ford F. MacEvoy. Newark, N. j.. is
building % barges, to be used fol
hauling oil, for the Maritime Com
mission.
Rear Admiral Emory S. Land
Maritime Commission chairman
testified yesterday that contracts
with the company would be re-
audited and renegotiated and that
proper procedure has been taken
to prevent unauthorized expendi-
lures"
Chairman Truman said more tes-
timony would be taken. but was
uncertain whether further hearings
would be necessary.
Called Added Protection.
Admiral Land asserted the only
value Of the barges was added
protection for the people because
of lack of other transportation
facilities" and on that basis the
barge construction program was
quite justified"
The program, he said, was started
with reluctance" on his part be-
cause he was mo enthusiast" for
concrete.
The Navy, he said, wanted i'm
mediate delivery of IL barges of the
lis being built in the country.
Mr.. MacEvoy was to have de-
livered the first barge March 2, 1912,
but to date has delivered none. He
testified the first would be ready
for launching February %.
Cost 100000 Each.
Barges alone cost about 100000
each, Admiral Land said, and the
self-propelled type about $l,100,000
each.
Senator Truman told Admiral
Land he considered the contracts
with Mr.. MacEvoy damn poor, Z"
and said Il don't understand why
you would make a contract like that
with a man like MacEvoy in the
first place."
Admiral Land said, however, that
Mr.. MacEvoy's company furnished
its own facilities "and any man who
would 60 ahead and put up his own
facilities is man we're looking for"
Questioned by Senator Ball, Re
publican, of Minnesota about costs,
Admiral Land replied that nobody
but God knows what the ultimate
cost is going to be-"
Denies Falsifying Vouchers.
Mr.. MacEvoy denied under ex-
animation by Committee Counsel
Hugh Fulton that the company had
submitted any false vouchers to the
Maritime Commission.
Mr.. Fulton said $2,741,460 had
been allowed for five barges under
Mr.. MacEvoy's contract, but that
the corporation had placed the cost
as of last December 80 at a, ,466, ,S55.
Mr.. MacEvoy replied that he
would not dispute nor af1irm the
figure.
The contractor said he and his
wife "hocked ourselves up to the
ears to carry out this contract" and
added profits have been nil"
He said that after February 2S
barReS would be turned ont at
about 30-day intervals.
