of in one particular area. while
still another objective is to keen
the public informed of the activities

the association of community prob
lens and needs, which are increas-

AS to the value of membership in
the organization. the Camden mayor
pointed out, communities in a num-
Der Of instances have gained in
formation and suggestions, through
exchange of ideas and experiences
in discussions at meetings, by which
they have been able to combat and
solve some baffling situation.
A current proposal within the or
ganizatiOn is the possibility Of sew
eral towns joining together and
purchasing mOsquito-control equip
ment on a cooperative basis.

parel, or transportation by truck.
In some cases, he said that tax
payers are failing to deduct from
their business profits all that is
allowable under the internal Reve-
nue. Code, such as rent or business
property, or equipment, or depre-
clatlon on business property or
equipment owned by the taxpayer.
Other self-employed persons are
railing to deduct such expenses as
taxes on their business or business
property, and salaries and wages
paid to employees. Such deductions
must be made in arriving at the
ngure shown as net earnings from
self-emplOyment.
On the other hand" the local
concluded, "sOme tax
payers are enormously understat-
ing their self-emplOyment income.
He said that one fairly common
error is deducting, from net earn
lngs, the salary drawn by the self
person from his own
business.

Three Road Officials
Ousted IL COP
Department Changes
lcontlnued froln flrst 80

Democrats. but rumors abound.
Two Of the jobs are likely to be
eliminated. It is believed that
Colonel McWilliams will recommend
to the highway commission, at It's
meeting on Aug. 19, that Mr.. Mark
lands job, as equipment supervisor
be combined with some other posi-
tiOn, and that the responsibility
Of heading the right Of way division
be shifted to some other official in
the Highway Department.
If Mr.. Jones job of chief right of
way agent is retained it is likely to
go to Lyle T. Maybee of Dover, who
has been with the department for
many years and is currently a spec
iications writer in the plans and
design division. If the job is elm
mated, he will probably be shifted
to the right Of way division anyhow.
Political sources said the first
choice for Sussex County division
engineer is going to be Edward Rose
Of Georgetown, a former division
engineer, now retired.
While his appointment by the
commission is regarded as highly
probable, it is also reported that
the Sussex County Republican Com
mittee has recommended two other
individuals for the job-Fenwick A.
Thompson Of Bridgeville, and Eu-
gene F. Hammond of Delmar.
It was said that Charles Stats
Of Port Penn will be named acting
engineer when Mr.. Maxwell goes.
Mr.. Stats recently was rehired by
the department; he had been re-
placed when the Democrats took
over control in. 1949. He is currently
working as an aide to Mr.. Maxwell.
But it was understood that no
decision has been made on who will
finally succeed Mr.. Maxwell.
It was also rumored that Paul
Scotten. also a former employee of
the department under a past Re-
publican regime, will be called back !
to take Mr.. Bice's place as Kent |
County division engineer when the
latter is released Mr.. Scotten had
been Kent County supervisor of
primary roads until he was re-
placed about two years ago.
Colonel McWilliams recently took !
over as chief engineer replacing
Richard A. Haber, who was named /
cOnsultant temOrarily.

security tax on their own earnings
! for 1852" he added. MilBouer said
he was taking into consideration
that 1852 was the second year in
which self-employed persons had
ian. obligation to report their earn
ings and pay the social security
tax. Most people who work for them
selves as sole owners or as partners
in trade or business were brought
under the law as of January 1, 1851.
zone of the mistakes most COM
monty made" he said, was the
omission of the social security ac-
count number, or the use of an in
correct number" Self-emplOyed
people are required to have a social
security account card just like
people who are employed. Unlike
employees, however, the self-em-
plOyed person files his own return.
He does this once a year when he
makes out his Federal income tax
return. The Director of Internal
Revenue supplies a special form,
Schedule Ca, for this purpose.
In filling out Schedule Ca, Mil
bOuer said that some self-employed
persons give the name of their
business enterprise and not their
own name; others, he said, give
more than one name. "In the case
of husband and wife filing a joint
return, we sometimes find that both
names are included on Schedule
Ca" he said, and pointed out that
if only one of them actually has the
self-employment income, only that
persons name should appear on the
schedule. If each of the parties has
self-emplOyment income in his own
right, separate Schedule Ca should |
be prepared, he declared
Milbouer said that some taxpayers
have reported income which is not
covered by the social security |
law-fOr instance, rentals from real
estate, or income from stocks and |
bonds. Such income should not be |
reported for social security purposes
unless. received in the course of |
business as a real estate dealer or
a dealer in securities. Income from
the operation of farm, or from the
practice of certain excluded pro-
fessiOns such as law or medicine,
should not be reported.
1T is important that the tax
payer describe the nature of his
MilbOuer said. He pointed
out that entries such as "self-em-
plOyed," partnership" or owner"
are not sufficient to show whether
the income reported is covered by
The law. In filling out this item on
Schedule Ca, it is necessary to
describe the general classification
Of the business from which the self
income is derived. For

crowded facilities are in the high
school, DR.. Stewart said. A new high
school building is provided for this
district through an appropriation
by the recent session of the General
Assembly but the crowded condi-
tions will continue until it is con-
structed.
The increase during the next
school year will be felt most heavily
in the elementary grades, DR.. Stew
art said. The estimates confirm the
earlier predictions of public school
officials that the enrollments in the
state would increase by approx
mately 5000 a year.
Problem To Continue
Although affecting only the
grades up to and including junior
high school level at present, the
larger classes will present a prob
lem on the secondary school Level
for years to come. This poses the
problem Of educators in providing
additional high school buildings in
the state.
Some of the increase in the en-
rOllments results from the high
birth rate in the state. Another
contributing factor is the
large number of workers moving
into Delaware from other states.
"As Delaware grows, the school
population grows" DR.. Stewart
commented.
Should the increase in the net en-
rollments for the next school year
as predicted, = the total
would represent an increase of
about $4,000 children ill the public
schools of Delaware during the past
eight years.
