Publishers Of Comics
Name Magistrate 10
Enforce New Code
By the Assoeiofed Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-A New
York City magistrate who has
waged a long battle against jul
venile delinquency was named
today as administrator for a stiff
new code of ethics in the Oft
assailed comic book industry.
The newly created Comics
Magazine Association of America
announced the selection of Magi-
strate Charles F. Murphy, A, as
code administrator. He will take
the post October /.
One Of the first actions con-
templated is the banning of all
so-called horror and terror books.
Police in many cities already are
waging war against such publ
cations.
Magistrate Murphy was a legal
adviser to the late Mayor Fiorello
H. LaGuardia. He has organi-
zed many projects during the last
five years for combating and re-
ducing juvenile delinquency.
One of these was Teen Plan,
Inc. a private organization de-
voted to helping teen-agers find
suitable careers.
Under the plan of the comic
book publishers association for
self policing, Magistrate Murphy
it was said. will have full au-
thority to carry out and enforce
a strict, self imposed set of
standards for comics publishers. :"
With his authority he will
then develop a code of ethics for
the industry. Twenty-four of the
Nations q comic magazine pub
fishers, plus other concerns as
ISOLATED with the industry, have
joined in the move.
In addition to banning the
horror and terror type of books,
a staff of professional reviewers
will look over all material sched-
uled for publication.
A formal seal also will be en-
ployed on the cover of books ap-
proved for publication.

Every dollar you can save on
your 1854 income tax return is
worth at least $1.25 of additional
income to you.
Even If you are in the lowest
tax bracket Of 20 per cent, the
most you can have left from one
additional dollar of pre-tax in
come is 80 cents; 20 cents inn
mediately goes to the Govern
ment.
So If you are in the $4,000
income class and you can reduce
your tax by 81. it is equivalent
to your earning an extra $1.25.
II you are in the $4,000-$6, 900
income class and you can reduce
your tax by 81, it is equivalent to
your earning an extra $1.35.
If you are in the $8.000-$10, 900
income class and you can reduce
your tax by 81, it is equivalent
to your earning an extra $1.52.
Action Now Important.
That's why the hints I'm sub
Knitting to you this week to show
you how to work out your finan-
cial situation for maximum tax
savings BEFORE the end of
1854 are worth so much.
If you and your brothers or
sisters are sharing equally in the
support of your mother or father,
but none Of you is contributing
more than half your parents
support, decide among yourselves
now which one of you is to get
the 5000 exemption for your
parent this year.
Here's why: The new law says
one of you may claim the 5000
exemption each year, even
though none of you contributes
more than half the support. De-
eide before December 81 on a
plan for rotating the credit from
year to year.
II the agreement is that you
get the exemption this year, your
brothers or sisters must sign a
statement that they will not
claim the exemption in the same
year.
If you have loaned money to
some individual and it's shaping
up as a bad debt, get proof be-
fore December 81 that your debt
became bad in 1854.
Here's why: If you should take
a deduction for a bad debt this
year and you do not, you cannot
take the deduction next year.
In order to get this deduction,
you must be able to prove you
have no reasonable hope of COL
lecting.
Contribution Timing.
If you are planning to contri-
butte money to your favorite
charity this Christmas and own
stocks at a profit, consider max
ing your contribution in stock
rather than cash.
Here's why: Gifts of property
are a deduction at their fair
market value on the date Of your
contribution. Not only will you
get a full charitable deduction
for the amount you contribute;
you'll also escape paying a capt.
tai gains tax on the profit in
your stock. The higher the level

Lack Of Executives
Held Chief Cause Of
u. 5. Bank Mergers

A lack Of qualified persons to
step into top executive positions
is the major cause of the Nation
wide wave of bank mergers, de-
clared Hartwell Taylor, vice
president of the Bank Of Vir-
ginia, here last night.
Addressing the annual dinner
OF Washington Chapter, Ameri-
can Institute Of Banking, Mr..
Taylor said that many a bank
has had to be merged and be-
come a branch of a larger insti-
tuition, because it did not have
qualified men to succeed execu-
tives who retired or died.
The institute is doing an out
standing job to supply this need,
he said. It's members represent
1916 per cent of the 376.750 bank
employees of the Nation and its
students are 1872 per cent of the
total.
Glen F. Thompson of the Riggs
National Bank, first vice presi-
dent of the chapter and chair
man of it's educational commit
tee, presided at the dinner and
introduced Wilmer j. Waller, jr.,
Of the Hamilton National Bank,
chapter president, who gave out
certificates and prizes to last
years graduates.
In addition to pre-standard
and standard courses, Mr..
Thompson announced that Edison
B. Olds, partner in Goodwin &
Olds, will give a graduate lecture
course on investments. Graduate
courses also will be given by Ken
meth O. Hulse on credit admins
tration and Harry P. Bergman
on mortgage lending. The for
mer is assistant vice president of
the Hamilton and the latter is
vice president of Riggs.
Bruce Cain of Riggs won first
prize in the pre-standard group
and Wayne M. Proctor was
awarded second prize. In the
standard group, Julian E. Keck
of Old Dominion was second and
William G. Lipscomb, jr., was
third.
Ralph Endicott, vice president
of the Washington Loan g. Trust
Co., and dean of the chapter
faculty, introduced members of
the faculty. Francis E. Robey,
president of the District Bankers
Association, brought greetings
from that association, which sup
ports the institute.
