P-TA County Council
To Study Results Of
Work Shop Meeting

Conclusions and recommended
lions of the II discussion groups OF
the February 10Th workshop on
Montgomery County's public edu-
cation problems will be summar-
lied and presented to the next gen
eral meeting of the County Council
Of Parent Teacher Associations,
for consideration in determining
future Council activities.
This was explained by Nathan
r. Gilbert, Chevy Chase, Council
presidents at the conclusion of Sat
urday's all-day meeting at Silver
Spring intermediate school, attend
ed by 218 officers and members of
committees of the 35 P-TA groups
which comprise the Council.
DR.. Edwin H. Broome, county
school superintendent, said that the
workshop was a dynamic express
sion of cooperation. He warned
participants that they might moi
accomplish Immediately all they
would wish for but he urged then
to keep working together.
Success of your efforts is ulti.
mately certain, as long-term plan.

where the parties are legally di-
vorced. Moreover, the payments
must qualify as periodic pay
ments." Periodic payments include
only cash payments and do not in
clude such intangibles as free rent
furnished to thes former wife by
the former husband. Nor does the
rule apply to lump sum settlements
unless it is to be paid in INSTALL
ments over period of time ex-
ceeding ten years. In that case, not
more than ten per cent of the total
sum can be taxed to the wife and
deducted by the husband in any
one year. The provisions of the law
relating to the taxing of alimony
payments to the recipient applies
to trust income as well as direct
payments by the husband. If the
husband creates trust from which
income is paid to the wife in salts
faction of alimony payments, such
amounts are taxable to the wife
and should not be included in the
gross income of the husband. The
provisions of the law that provide
for the inclusion of periodic ali
mony payments in the wife's in
come and the deduction of such
amount from the husbands gross
income are not applicable to that
part of any periodic payment
which by the terms of the court de-
cree is designated as an amount
payable by the husband for the
support of his minor children.
However, if the amounts received
by the wife are for the support of
herself and minor children and the
amount for the support of the chill
dren is not specifically designated
as such then the entire amount is
taxable to the wife and deductible
by the husband.
Under the Maryland Income Tax
Law, alimony is not taxable to the
wife nor is it deductible from the
gross income of the husband.
Gifts And Requests
Property or money received as
gift, bequest, devise or inheri-
lance is not subject to the income
tax, However, if the property SO
acquired is incomerptoducing,i the
amount of income derived from the
property is subject to the income
tax and must be included in your
gross income.
Life Insurance Proceeds
Money received under life in
surance policy paid by reason of
the death of the insured is not
subject to the income tax. If, how
ever, you have an arrangement
with your insurance company
whereby the company retains the
amount payable under the policy
Fandcpays you interest on that sum,
then the interest is taxable.

Miscellaneous Sources OF Income
Aside from salaries, wages, bo-
muses., commissions, income from
business, annuities and pensions,
interest and dividends, rents and
royalties, income from the sale or
exchange of capital assets and
from partnerships, you may have
income from various other sources.
Several miscellaneous items of in
come are discussed below.
Prizes And Gambling Gains
AS a general rule the cash value
or the fair market value of prop
erty won as a prize at shows, fairs,
radio programs, ETC., is subject to
the income tax and must be includ-
ed in gross income. In some cases,
however, an amount received as a
prize would constitute gift and
would not, therefore, be subject to
the income tax. In one instance, a
Federal Court has ruled that where
an essay prize was paid out of in
come from a testamentary trust
by the terms of the will, that such
a prize constituted a gift and was
not income within the meaning of
the income tax law.
All gambling gains are subject
to the income tax. Even though
such gains may be earned in trans
actions which are illegal, they are
considered income and are subject
to tax. On the same theory, wager
ing losses are deductible from
gross income but only to the extent
of the taxpayers gains from SINH
lar transactions.
Insurance Paid By Employer
In the case where the Taxpayers
employer pays the premiums on a
regular insurance policy for the
employee and the employee may
name the beneficiary or where the
employer names the employees
wife, dependents or estate as the
beneficiary, then the amount paid
by the employer is income to the
employee and he must include that
amount in his gross income. In the
case where an employer pays
premiums on group life insurance
on his employees or where the en-
ployer is the beneficiary under a
regular policy of insurance, the
amount paid by the employer is
not considered income to the en-
ployee and is not subject to tax.
Alimony
Under the Federal Income Tax
Law periodic 9alimony payments
made in discharge of legal obli-
cation subsequent to a decree of
divorce are income to the wife and
are subject to tax and the husband
is allowed a deduction for such
payments. This rule applies only

wild Sowing

Ms WE SAW last week, the most
- important feature of the Ideal
World, or of any world, is the quail
ity of the people in it. SO most of
Jesus parallels were about people,
one of the most famous being this
one of the ''prodigal son."l ("Prod-
: iga" of course does not mean wick
ed or repentant, but wasteful, reck-
less with money or other things.)
You could find many faults in that
young man. One of them - the
fault that nearly killed him = was
that If he had calendar he never
looked at it. If you take a good
look at a calendar you will always
notice that there is another day af-
ter this one-another month, anoth-
er year. But the prodigal never
thinks about tomorrow, only about
today. He sows his wild oats be-
cause he has fun doing it. He can
say so WHAT" fast enough but he
has never asked the question, e
ard then WHAT" Childish, isn't it?
Some people even argue that
II is a good thing to sow wild
oats, on the theory that the
prodigal gets 1t out Of his sys-
tenn and Is afterwards a better
man.
Nonsense! Is it better for your
education to spend several years
learning things wrong? Is it bet
ter for a garden to let it grow up
in weeds for the first three weeks?
Is it better for mans health to
spend his childhood years on sick
bed? That's no more silly than to
say that man is morally better
for having been immoral for a while
first.
Prodigal Nation
IT HAS EVEN been said that we
Ahave a prodigal-son civilization.
Our generation is pretty busy SOW
ing wild oats. We waste the nat
ural resources Of the earth. Drink
inG has become encouraged by law
and made glamorouS by the movies.
We spend more on liquor than on
schools. More money is spent on a
single days horse-racing at a big
track than whole state or prov
lnce spends on education in a year.
The ties of marriage have grown
SO weak, especially outside the
Christian church. that 1t has not
been long since one American city
was boasting taat its marriage rate
had Caught lip with" its divorce
rate!
/ Wild Harvest
THE PRODIGAL son IN Jesus
= story went home-but he had TO
reap his wild harvest first. The
modern prodigal, whether individ.
ual or nation, seems to misunder.
stand Jesus meaning II God is
thought of at all. he is pictured as
a benevolent Being who after all
doesn't mind cur enjoying our little
fling. He will forgive" said Vol
talre, that's his business" That
Is total misunderstanding Of God

Special Session May Be Void Of Any Tax Measure
Continued from Page One)


 was no controversy over the code itself. It is a comprehensive mod ernization of Alaska statutes. But some Republicans contend it was not encompassed in subjecteS men toned by the Governor in calling the special session and therefore should be delayed to the regular session.
 The judiciary committee, head ed by Sen. E. B. Collins, Fair banks Republican, and composed of three Republicans and one Democrat, reported the code es- tabliShing legislation out, with a three-to-one recommendation Do Not Pass"
 Atty. Gen. Ralph Rivers has ex- pressed the opinion there is no doubt whatever about the Legis- lature's authority to enact any legislation it wishes regardless of whether it goes beyond the scope mentioned in the Governors call
 Three Democrat Senators joined in branding Republican tactics on the code as ''obStructionist." How ard Lyng of Nome. Steve McCut- cheon and Victor Rivers of An chorage applied that label. Lyng said all bills drawn fol the special session are based or the new code in legal reference: and if it is not adopted, virtually every bill would have to be re, drafted before passage.
 Other major taxa: ion bills were tagging far behind and were pos. itively out of the running for spe, cial-session passage.
 They include a comprehensive two per cent general property ta> bill and the all-inclusive genera ] license tax measure still reposins in the House ways and means committee.
 Rep. Warren Taylor, Fairbanks Democrat, chairman of the com. mittee said he is planning to offer an amendment cutting the tax tC one per cent. He said he would d( this to avoid what he consider! too heavy tax rate in those citie where 20 mills already are levied -.he maximum allowed under tht law without specific legislativ, authorization. Even With legisla authorization, the maximum al loWable would be three per cent His amendment would block pro posed increased property taxes 1T cities with maximum levieS.
