Tax Collector
Gives Advice
On Income Filing

Instructions designed to simplify
the filling out of income tax re-
turns were issued Monday by Col
lector of Internal Revenue Harry
c. WeStover to residents who will
be required to file returns by March
18th.
Employees who use their withhold
ing receipts as tax returns are not
allowed 10 take any deductions
frcm their reported income to cover
such items as charitable contri-
buttons, taxes, and interest paid"
Westover said. I'VE will automatic
ally give them credit for ten per
cent of their income to cover such
items.
Persons who use the table on
page two of form 1040 to compute
their tax must take any deductions
for their contributions or personal
expenditures. The table makes al
lowance of ten per cent of the re-
ported income for these deductions,
and additional credits are not per-
mitted.
Those who desire TO itemize their
allowable deductions must do so
on page four of form 1910 and then
must calculate their taxes without
reference to the table on page two.
If the allowable deductions do not
total ten per cent of the income,
termination will be waste of time
and the tax table should be used"
Westover concluded.

All Orange Juice
In Texas, Florida
Goes to Military

WASHINGTON, Jan. 80. CUP)-
The war Food Administration
Tuesday restricted to the armed
forces all Gamers sales of orange
juice produced from Florida and
Texas fruit.
However, Office of Price Admins
tration officials said the move does
not presage return of the commod-
ity to the ration list.
The ban, effective January 80, is
similar to action taken on grape
fruit Juice and blended citrus juices
earlier this mcnth. Ration point
values were placed on those prod
ucts at that time.
VIA said the supply of canned
orange Juice was considered ample
to meet all needs. Recently, it said,
shipments in trade channels have
been abnormally heavy, creating
concern as to whether the armed
forces would be able to obtain re-
quirements. -- .',,-.e 49,
E The order does not apply toijuices
from Arizona and California fruit,
for which production has not yet
begun. OPA said army requirements
probably will be met by the time
Arizona and California juices are
available to replenish civilian sup
plies.

A STRANGE REQUEST
(San Diego Union)

Attorney General Kenny of California
seems to be stepping out of bounds, both
officially and ethically, in requesting
that the government drop deportation
proceedings against Harry Bridges
found by federal court of appeals to be
a Communist and subject to deportation
under United States law The request is
all the more improper in view of the fact
that the case is due for consideration by
the United States supreme court.
The case against Bridges is federal
case. The charges are brought under
federal law and subject to adjudication
only by federal courts. Whatever Mr..
Kennys personal views, he has no legal
or moral right to intervene. The issues
involved have no bearing on what Bridg-
es' present conduct may be; they relate
to activities which cost the Pacific coast
many millions of dollars and which Gre
ated labor strife unprecedented in the
coastal area-even to the extent OF IN
voving bloodshed and death.
The attorney general deserves proper
rabuke, not only from the people of Cali
fornia, but from the congress as we'll.

GERMAN SAVAGERY

(San Bernardino Sum
This country was unwilling to believe
reports circulated soon after the begin
ming of the German counter-offenslve
that American prisoners of war had
been shot in cold blood. There remained
a belief that the German regular army
code of honor respected the Geneva con-
vention governing treatment of prison.
erS.
This faith has been severely wrenched
by authenticated reports of the wanton
killing of disarmed American soldiers.
The State department has sent to the
German government "the strongest pos
sible protest
Proof following World War | that
many atrocity stories were grossly exag-
gerated has also moved many Americans
to be skeptical. But there is no escaping
these recent reports. Obviously the atroc-
tiles are the work of the Hitler nazls-
depraved savages, bereft of all honor and
defiant Of all humane impulses, whose
purposes is the destruction of civilization.

Ohio" Col Roosevelt explained,
"the pullman conductor began max
ing a list of passengers going west
of Chicago because we were running
late"
Il told him we had reservations
on the streamliner out of Chicago
at pm. He thought we would
get in at about that time and add
ed our names to the list.
THE conductor then suggested
that I send telegram to the ter

He asked if l was travelling on
duty status and when 1 said I was,
he said he'd send wire for me
to the Union Pacific terminal the
marine colonel said.
WROTE TELEGRAM
I'VE worded it together just stat
ing that we'd be in at o'clock and
we'd appreciate it if they would
consider the fact that we'd like to
make the train. We had the un-
derstanding that it was the proper
thing to do as far as Union Pa
cific was concerned" Col. Roose-
yelt stated.
1.-TWO hours later, we were fall
ing further behind and I gave up
hope. I even sent a wire to the
Blackstone hotel in Chicago to find
out if we could get rooms for over
night.
"A Mr.. Pollock of Union Pacific

PERllS GROW AS
WORLD SHRINKS
Riverside Daily Press)


This world is getting smaller and its
perils greater. Weapons reach farther
and become more battling. The immedi
ate danger of robot bomb attacks on
this side of the ocean, from European
enemies, is discounted, but it seems IN
evitable that such contrivances will be
used sooner or later, on a vast scale, if
wars continue.
There may be newer and more powerful
weapons produced, but there is no saliva
ton in them. What one nation can do in
this field, others can do likewise. Science
is open to all, and more and more it
threatens its own creators. 1t is conced-
ed, however, that Germany has maintain
ed the lead technically in this war.
Civilization has arrived at a point
where there is no safety except in mutual
forbearance and righteousness. 1t has
been said of old that they who take up
the sword shall perish with the sword,
but this is not enough. With our modern
equivalents for the sword, both the right
eous and the unrighteous perish. The
human race can be saved only by mutual
forbearance and cooperation.

Imperial Valley press., 1945-01-30

LONDON, Jan. 30. (UP) = The
Yugoslav political dispute, which
for a time threatened to rival the
Greek and Polish controversies as
a threat to Allied unity, appeared
Tuesday to have been settled in
advance of the big three" meeting.
King Peter of YugoSlavia an
nounced Monday night that he had
a greed to transfer his powers to
regency by royal DEGREES and had
approved the formation of new
government charged with putting
the Subasic-Tito pact into effect.
ONE PLACE CHANGES
The new" government under
Premier Ivan Subasic actually was
the same as the former regime with
the exception of DR.. IZidor Cam
kar, who was dropped as education
minister. His portfolio was absorb
ed by DR.. Draja Marusic, who con-
tinued as justice and communica-
tionS minister.
Subasic continued as war and
foreign affairs minister in addition
to premier.
The announcement of the forma-
ton of the government said it would
put the agreement reached by Su-
basic and Marshal Tito into effect,
taking into account" Peters OBJ
servations in a formal communique
January IL and subsequent sugges-
tions.
In his January IL communique,
Peter demanded voice in forming
the regency and called for an en-
largement of the proposed Yugo-
slav legislative council to include

ers, the profits of business, the in
come of farmers, the welfare OF the
country as a whole, and the pro-
lection of the United States treas
ury, could do a better job if the
two were combined than if they
were separated.
OTHER COED MEN
Undoubtedly many good men
could be found to head the loan
agency" he said, "but l wish to
make it clear to you that there were
serious danger of a too little and
too late man being appointed, I
would prefer not to be secretary of
commerce"
Although his nomination by Pres
ident Roosevelt to the commerce
post, which presently controls the
loan agencies, is under fire in the
senate, Wallace was encouraged by
a praiseful letter from the Presi-
dent, read to the meeting by Mrs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Existence OF the letter was re-
vealed for the first time at the
testimonial dinner sponsored by the
Union for Democratic Action, pre-
sliced over by Bruce Bliven, editor
of the New Republic. 1t was writ
ten January. II, five days before
Mr.. Roosevelt nominated Wallace
to the commerce post. 1t said, in
part:
Whenever and wherever men
gather to give testimony to the
contribution OF Henry Wallace to
our times and cur future, I want
to oe called as witness.
GRATEFUL FOR MAN
with other Americans, l am
grateful for the things that Henry
Wallace has done as great Secre-
tary of agriculture and as a vice
president with a clear voice to the
conscience and the hopes of men
everywhere.
"You and I can be grateful also
for what Henry Wallace is in the
meaning of things we have been try
ing to do to make better America
and, in the war we now wage, to
make a better world.
America, its people, and its gov
ernment, need Henry Wallace now
more than ever before"
In his last minute Interpolation,
Wallace said he would prefer not
to have the commerce post if a man
| incompatible to him was named
head Of the RFC. II wish TO make
IL clear" he said, that if there
were serious danger-and / do not
really think there is-of a too-little
or too-late man being appointed
I would prefer not to be secretary
of commerce"
Wallace said his opponents fear
ed the scope of his ideas, rather
than any impractical schemes.

"They are not fighting a starry

"If they were they would not be

IN commerce there would be a con-
tinuous campaign for maximum pro-
duction, maximum sales, maximum
exports and imports, without which
he indicated: may come "a great
disaster after this war than it die
after World war one.'
Others supporting Wallace at the
dinner included Henry j. Kaiser
west coast shipbuilder, Walter Reu-
ther, vice president of the Union ol
Automobile Workers, and Sidney

one of the dinners sponsors.
