BESIDES, WE'RE TOO OLD
TO ENLIST

A Congressional subcommittee
has just returned to Washington
from a twelve-state tour of military
establishments convinced that life
in the Army, Navy and Air Force
here at home could be a bit more
Spartan. The nine billion dollar
building program of the combined
Services includes, they say, exces-
sive plush and frills" as well as
buildings they can do without.
Examples of lavish expenditure
of taxpayers money pointed out by
the investigators included the new
$5,500,000 Observation-Disclosures
tion-Training Building at Kelly Air
Base in Texas; Barracks at the
Miramar, (Calif) Navy Air Sta
ton, and the FL TOrO (Calif.) Ma
rine Air Station costing $3.50 and
$2,534 per man respectively; gen
orally elaborate construction
throughout the new Limestone All
Force Base in Maine, such as q
hospital with oxygen outlets in
every room.
Briefly, the Congressman were
] allergic to marble steps, terazzC
floors and circular staircases, es.
pecially when there were indica.

Budget Total
Requests Up
10 Percent

Maryland's governmental de-
partments want 10 percent more
money during the next fiscal year
than they now are operating on.
The agencies have asked for
$106,826,074 from General Funds.
This is $9,872,S92 more than they
got this year. 1t also is $3,334,523
more than the State expects to
collect in General Funds plus the
estimated surplus.
State experts estimate revenues
for the fiscal year starting next
June will be $93,609,560 and the
surplus $9,881,9
In addition to the appropriations
from General Funds, some Of the
departments also receive special
funds. These are funds collected by
the departments, such as the De-
partment Of Motor Vehicles from
licenses, and by law limited to use
by that agency.
The special funds, together with
requests for General Funds, are
expected to total 200 million dol
lars.
Gov. Theodore r. McKeldin un-
doubtedly will do some trimming
of General Fund requests before
he submits his budget. He can't
do anything about the special
funds.
The Governor last summer noti-
fed all departments he expected
them to keep their budget requests
at tn same level as this year ex-
cept for automatic salary increases
and adjustments to meet higher
costs.
The Governor must submit his
budget within 20 days after the
General Assembly convenes jan
uary 7.

(This is the first of three articles
on Farmers 1852 Income Tax, pre-
pared by University of Maryland
Agricultural EcOnOmists.)
Farmers will find in making out
their tax returns for 1852 that the
tax rates, on the average, will be
about percent higher than those
on 1851 incomes. This increase
was provided for in the Revenue
Act of 1851 which took effect late
in the year, but will apply to the
entire year of 1852.
Along with this change there is
another revision which will prob
ably not affect too many farmers
but is relatively important to a
few: any long-term capital gain
may be offset, dollar for dollar, by
any short-term capital loss, only
so percent of such excess need be
included in gross income.
Farm Home Separate
| A provision dealing with the sale
of the farm was added last year
that greatly effects income from
sale of the farm dwelling. The
farm home and the rest Of the farm
real estate can now be handled as
two entirely separate properties

place. Land and the farm service

Cub Scouts Plan
To Expand Here
This Year

To make room for the greatly in
creased number of families wishing
to join the Cub Scout program, the
leaders of Cub Scout Pack 208,
which currently serves the entire
Notwithstanding area, are
making plans to divide the Pack
into four units. Detailed plans,
with the designation of future of
ficers, will be made at committee
meeting to be held at 1902 Okin-
ava Ave. at 8 pm. Wednesday,
January Z. All interested fathers
are invited.
According to present plans, the
new Packs will serve all boys living
within geographical limits which
will approximate those of the Rock
vile Elementary, Lone Oak, Twin
brook, and Gaithersburg School
districts.
Many new officers are needed,
and all parents who feel they might
help a little are urged to contact
their respective future leaders of
Rockville Elementary. S. B. Keith
(PO2-4431); Lone Oak, Willis
Ryan (PO2-3033); Twinbrook, AL
bert Holbrook (PO2-2834); and

2O8 have also agreed to give all
possible help toward the formation
of Pack in the Lincoln Park

New Ford Tractors
To Be Displayed
Here This Week

The new Golden Jubilee Model
Ford Tractor described as the most
modern farm tractor ever built
with hydraulic controls and three
point linkage for implements will
go on display Saturday, January
8, 1853 at the Rockville Motor Co.
according to Oliver H. Perry.
The new tractor, marking the
50th Anniversary of Ford Motor
Company, not only is more power
full, but larger and heavier than
the popular Model 8N which it re-
places. More than 100000 Model
8N tractors have been sold since
their production started in 1947.
The overall length of the new
tractor has been increased to 120
inches and its weight to 2,510
pounds. 1t is powered by the en-
tirely new overhead valve Ford
d-Tiger" engine.
Streamlined design gives it the
appearance of leaning ahead, ready
to go to work. 1t has the familiar
dawn gray and vermillion red col
or scheme.
A new design feature is the full
view instrument cluster set in a
raised section of the hood for the
convenience of the operator. In
struments include the exclusive
Proof Meter, ammeter, tempera-
ture gauge and oil pressure gauge.
The Iive-Action Hydraulic Sys-
tenn built into the Golden Jubilee
Model to provide mechanical mus
cles for wide variety of work,
has been improved for greater
power and faster, more accurate
operation. Instead Of the "cavtat-
ing" system used in previous Ford
Tractors, the new model introduces
a solid system completely filled
with oil at all times, which pro-
vides split-second response to con-
trolls.
The hydraulic mechanism pro-
vides both Implement Position Con-
troll and Constant Draft Control at
the flick of the Selector Lever,
features Of previous Ford Tractors
that nave met with wide accept
ance by farmers. The faster acting
system allows quicker automatic
corrections for changes in soil con-
ditions, for example in blowing
and also provides quicker, more
positive control for other bydrauli-
cally controlled farm operations.

place Of residence, and owned it for
6 months or more, and if another
house Of equal or greater value is
bought within IL months, or built
within 18 months, there is no tax
on the profit from the sale of the
farm house. If, however, the sale
price of the old residence exceeds
the cost Of the new residence, any
gain on the sale is taxabl.
There are special rules, however,
which apply where a part of the old
or new residence is rented or used
for business purposes, or where
two persons a taxpayer owns more
than one residence at the same
time or where two persons owning
the new and old residence are not
indentical. These special rules also
apply where more than one pro.
perty sold have been the residences
Of the taxpayer. When cases Of
this sort arise it is advisable to
consult your local revenue agent.
For more information on your
Farmers 1852 Income Tax, con-
suit your local internal revenue
agent, or obtain the 2S-page bull
letin, Farmers 1852 Income Tax
from your county agent.
The next article will discuss in
stallment sales Of farms, and live
stock sales as capital assets. The
final article will discuss sale Of
growing crops, and what to do il
your tax return is questioned.

PTA Tree Sale
Nets Over $17OO
This Year

Sale of Christmas trees by Rich
ard Montgomery and Lone Oak
Parent Teachers associations net
ted each group 1886 this year, it
was announced today.
Carl Higgins and Lloyd Keener,
chairmen of the Christmas trees
committees, said the second year
of sales was a tremendous sue
cess" and proved to the men of the
Lone Oak and Richard Montgomery
PTA's that they are capable of do
ing a "bang-up" job when given a
project-in spite of interesting
business that crops up during the
Christmas season.
The chairmen said this years CO.
operative sales showed a vast i'm
provement not only in purchasing
and display but more comfort was
supplied to the statesmen by heating
the two ticket booths on the carni-
val grounds and supplying hot
coffee and sandwiches during long
working hours on Saturdays and
Sundays.
The fact that the Christmas trees
committees maintained this year
policy of keeping the trees priced
below the average market in the
area also added to the success of
the project. More than three times
as many families purchased PTA
trees this year over last years
number, the chairmen said.
In order to celebrate the success
of the project, participants in the
enterprise expect TO hold a
Smoker" in the near future which
will include a steak dinner. Those
who wish to attend should phone
Don Hunt-Poplar 2-3017, or Frank
Beisser - Poplar 2-3709, for re-
servations. Price will be 1925
each.
