H0yes No Candidate
BY IOAN COUNCIL

United Press Stan CaFFesponaensH Nyack, N. F.. May % - tUP9 -s The rumor that the Democrats had glamor Girl Helen Hayes up their sleeve as a congressional match Tor the c. O. P.s Glare Boothe Luce was spiked today by Miss Hayes herself.
 The actress said that she was ap~ preached by Duchess County Denls ocrats earlier this year and asked "in a timid sort of a way if kl1n ever had thought about running for congress against Representative Ham Fish. in this years elections.
 She gave them a fiat mo" for ala answer amid shrieks of laughter, 1" she said today, and she added that never before or since had she cone sideFed the possibility of running.
 T am quite interested in the campaign. however" she said, ''aad am planning to campaign against Fish by supporting Augustus Ben- nett-but I am not going to take the stump for myself. now or neyer.s
 Don't think I am making politics a career, l am an actress first. last and always. and l don't think that I'd do a very good job of playing a poluetian as a life role. I'm just not cut out for that sort of thing .
 A hint that Mrs. Luce might not have long to wait for opposition, however, appeared in her own baall- wick. where 29-year-old Margaret E. Corners, a lawyer of Bridgeport, Conn. indicated her bonnet migat be tossed in the ring on the Demo- cratic ticket.
 4 former deputy secretary ef state, and pretty. Miss Corners wouldn't say yes and she wouldn't say no as to whether she'd seek flla nomination; she just said maybe" 1"
 After all," she said. T don't think Mrs. Luce could put up much In the way of competition Co any Democrat running with Mir Roose- welt this year, II isn't as fl t would be q personal matter"

TAX PLAN
HAS BECOME A LAW
CONTINUED from Page One)

l.
1. Victory tax-forget it. It's
repealed.
2. Normal tax-it does to your
pocketbook just about what the
old victory tax used to do. The
rate is 3 per cent, against the pre-
vious normal 6 per cent rate, and
exemptions and deductions are
different. In figuring it, deduct
10 per cent of your income Ito a
maximum of $500, and from
what you have left subtract an
other $500. Take 8 per cent of
the remaining figure and that
is your normal tax.
Thus a person making $500
would subtract $3.50 Go per cent
of income) and $500, leaving ST.
$50. And taking 3 per cent of the
latter figure you get your normal
tax-$795O. This system works
regardless of the number of de-
pendents.
3. Surtaxes-rates and exemp-
tons are adjusted, the rate be-
ginning at 20 per cent instead of
the present Is per cent. The
streamliner provides a uniform
exemption of $500 each for the
taxpayer and each person depend
ent on him, and a flat deduction
of 10 per cent of income. The sur
tax rates are 20 per cent of the
first $4,000 remaining after the
deductions are made; % per cent
on $4,000 to $4,000; rs on $4,000 to
$4,000; 80 on $4,000 to $4,000; "a
on $4,000 to $4,000, and progress
ing on up to 80 per cent on earn
ings above $150,000.
Assuming that the $500 man
has a wife and one child, he first
subtracts $1,000 $500 for each),
and then deducts $3.50 90 per cent
of income). His surtax is 20 per
cent of the remaining $1,000, or
$3.50.
His total tax is $3.50 (normaD
plus $3.50 (surtax)-$4O9.50.
The 10 per cent deduction in
both normal and surtax compu-
tations is in lieu of contributions
to religious, educational and char
liable causes, other taxes and in
terest paid. However, any per-
son who can establish that his
contributions, other taxes and in
terest paid are more than 10 per
cent may file a return listing his
actual payments, and get credit.
However, the credit for contribu-
tions could not exceed Is per cent
of gross income.
