The filing of The joint return by
husband and wife, with the in
come split and the tax computed
on one-half Of the aggregate sum,
with the two totals added to de-
termine the total tax due, would
eliminae the handling of thou
sands of individual returns, repre-
senting separate returns Of a hus-
band and wife.
Decrease Costs
The elimination OF the separate
return of a spouse would reduce
administrative costs of the Bureau
of Internal revenue, and would de.
crease the taxpayers costs of fill
ing, Lowrimore said.
Lowrimore will urge the COM
mittee to enact into law the pro-
posed legislation which will cor
rect the inequity of the taxes in
the community and the non-com-
munity property states.
The actual direct savings to tax
payers in accountants and attor-
neys fees will accrue to the gov
eminent and indirectly to all tax
payers as a result Of settlement
by legislation will run into mil
ions OF dollars.
The elimination OF the necessity
for the formation of a family part

tends. 49,.
He explained that in the state!
which do not have communit,
property laws, many ways art
available to minimize income tax
es within the family unit.
One of these is the family part
nership, which may be formed a
between husband and wife.

made prior to Pearl Harbor. Peo-
pie said the Japs couldn't attack
us-but they did.
To-day other nations in the
world are capable of attacking US.
Great ports like New York city
would be logical targets. The
great industrial centers like De-

He said the attack might come
by long-range aircraft strikes
across the Polar cap and might
include atomic bombing and bac-

Helps Pick Soap N Water
BY BETTY CLARKE

Teen-Agers are in the drivers
seat at home for the first time.
Nom and Pop are realizing that
if clothes and gadgets are being
rugged up to suit the sub-deb set,
that perhaps times have changed
and the kids really know what they
want.
And the 1947 crop of teen-agers
seem to be more aware of what
is good for them than any group
before them. The important thing
about today's young crowd is that
they won't have anything that
isn't good for 'em-or so goes the
majority, But, of course, there
are exceptions.
You don't have to tell the aver
age sixteen year old girl to wash
behind the ears, these days. Soap
and water becomes a beauty ritual
as soon as she is able to count
I'm to ten. The chief complaint of
parents now is that daughter mo-
nopolizes the bathtub and shower.
She would rather spend her allow
ance on some good soap or bubble
bath than On banana splits or
chocolate fudge sundaes.
She knows that too many sweets
are often responsible for teen-age
pudginess and pimples and she
tries to avoid them.
A bit of lipstick and an occa-
sional pat of the powder puff suf-
flee for her makeup needs. 1t is
smart in the hep set to look shiny
and well-soaped or all occasions
