State Income Tax
Laws Are Changed

A news release from the office of
j. Willard Tawes, state comptroller,
draws attention to the following
changes in the State Income Tax
laws, enacted since the forms for the
1914 income tax were mailed out:
Under a new amendment the def
milton of dependent has changed
completely. This change puts the
Maryland law in agreement with the
definition of dependent" as found
in the United States Revenue Code
applicable to the year 1914 Prior
law defined dependent" as a per-
son under the age of 18 years, re-
ceiving his chief support from the
taxpayer or one physically or ment-
ally incapable of self-support re-
CARELESS of age.
The recently enacted law def IS
a dependent" as a person % whose
gross income is under $4,000 per
year; (2) over half of whose sup
port, for the calendar year in which
the taxable year of the taxpayer be-
gins, was received from the taXpay-
er; and CD who is related to the
taxpayer in one of the relationships
set forth in the law
These relationships include chill
dren, grandchildren, great-grand-
children, stepchildren, brothers and
sisters, step-brothers and step-sisters,
half-hrothers, and half-sisters, par
ents, grandparents and great-grand-
parents, step-fathers and step-moth-
ers, nephews and neices, uncles and
aunts, and in-laws. Legally adopted
children are considered the same as
children by blood.
The new definition of dependent"
does not include any individual who
is citizen of foreign country I'M
less such individual is a resident of
the United States or of a country
contiguous to the United States.
Neither does it include remote rela-
tives, cousins, for example, or uncles,
aunts, neices or nephews, if the lat
ter are related to the taxpayer only
by marriage.
Another amendment has changed
the amount allowable as dependent
credit in cases where the optional
method of computation is used.
Heretofore, the dependent credit in
such cases has been $4,000, the new
law reduces this credit to $4,000,
which is the same amount allowable
where the regular method of compu-
tation is used
Conforming to the Internal Reve-
nue. Code, the Maryland Law now
excludes from gross income, pay

Troop IL met Friday night in our
Scoutroom at st. Johns Episcopal
Church. Our S. M. and II Scouts
were present The Scoutmaster and
10 Scouts were in uniform.
Our meeting opened with the
Scout Oath and Law, followed by
instruction in knot tying. A new
game was then introduced that
teaches skill with an axe. The game
consists of sticking barn-burner
match in log and having each
Scout attempt to light it by striking
the axe blade against the head of the
match. 1t not only provides lots Of
fun, but also improves skill with an
axe. If any other Troop wants to
try it, they should be careful to take
long, healthy swing--no "peepsie"
shots allowed Following the game
we had instruction in first-aid band
aging. Plans were then discussed for
a Troop camp in the near future,
after which the meeting closed with
