you can claim under the { per

on your 1854 tax return. due
next April Is. you can't claim
dividend credit totaIing more
than 2 per cent Of your tax
able" income, which IS your in
come after all deductions and
exemptions the final figure on
which the tax rate Is applied.
In future years. you can't
claim q dividend tax credit Of
more than Z per cent Of your
taxable income.
So, ii most or all your income

Exceptions Listed.
And you can't get any tax cut
on dividends received from rnu-
tuaK savings banks or building

surance companies. foreign corp
orationS, non-pr6fit co-opera-
tives. or mutual insurance COM
panies. These firms already are,
either tax-free, or not taxed as
heavily as most corporations.
I. # q husband and wife both
have dividend income, and they
file q joint return, they can de-
duct dividends received by each
of them up to $50, for q total
deduction Of 500. But If the
wife receives $35 in dividends
and the husband $65, they can
deduct only $85-the $50 maxi
mum for the husband and the
$35 for the wife.
Here are examples Of how all
this adds UP on tax returns:
Say you have q family of four
with $500 regular income and
1000 income from dividends
q total Of $10,50O.
Both husband and wife have
more than $50 In dividends, so
first you subtract the 500 divi-
dend exclusion, leaving $10.400
in income.
Then you subtract your $2,400
in personal exemptions and the
standard personal deduction OF
$1,000. leaving taxable income Of
$1,000.
Your regular tax rate would
run to a tax bill of $1.460. But
now you take 4 per cent OF the
5000 in dividends left after your
exclusion. This is $50, which is

stored q special tax benefit on
dividends. It viii reduce rev.
enues an estimated $40 million
the first year, up to 1858 million
In later years.
Dividend income received spec
cial treatment under tax laws
until 1886. when Democrats
struck 1t out in the heydey Of
the New Deal. The new tax cut
is q symbol Of the return to
power Of Republican tax phil
osophy.
It is far less than recon-
mended by the Eisenhower adj
ministration, but it Is still sub
stantial and it e-establishes the
principle.
Exemption Explained.
The tax cut is two-edged:
80
First. you pay no taxes on the
first $50 Of dividends received
each year. You can automa-
tically exclude this $50 from your
income for tax purposes.
Second, you get a tax credit"
"A further direct tax cut-of 4
per cent Of your remaining
dividend income.
The timing Is important this
year. The $50 deduction applies
to dividends last January / or
thereafter. The 4 per cent
credit applies only to dividends
received after last Saturday
