cent less income tax this year if

The new law allows eXemptios
for children who earn over $500 if
they are under 10 CT in school at
least ) months Of the year. IT also
allows exemptions for dependents
who aren't related TO the taxpayer.
Conservation expenditures on
land used for farming can bc
treated as current costs up to 25
percent of gross income. These cx-
penScs formerly were handled rs

People 65 years old and over

First in the plan is the construc-
tion of SO million medium Sc
curity reformatory at Lebanon

the system.
Lebanon has been selected many
times as the site for a new mental
institution and other similar struc-
lures in recent years due to tin"
large acreage available and its To-
cation.

which Lebanon is an honor camp.

capacity with men about 10 be- pa
rolled also being sent here.
Mr. Kobicntz stated Definitely
Ohio Penitentiary can be relocated
from downtown Columbus within
10 years, and that is one of the
objectives of the new program.
When Lebanon rcformatory is
built and it can bc built in
about two years il a lump sum ap-
preparation is provided instead OF
a piece-meal appreciation We
can reduce Ohio PENS opulation 10
about what it should be. Then We
can act to relocate the institution

should be located in a rural area

pleted since he took over the di-

900 to eight chartered veterans
groups for the period ending next

The veteran, as taxpayer, con-
tends that such appropriation of
taxpayers money is unconStitu-
tional, and that such use amounts
to using public funds for private
purposes.
The last four legislatures each
appropriated about a quarter of a
million dollars each to veterans
organizations for rehabilitation
of war veterans and for the pro-
motion of patriotism.

priations unconstitutional. but the

THE TAX oEADLrNE

There is some confusion
about tax headlines because of
the fact that a major wire
service reported enormously
on the headlines recently, and
because of the fact that this
year citizens will have until
April 18th to file their final
tax returns rather than March
18th.
The deadline for persons who
should have filed quarterly cs-
Inmates in 1854 is still January
18th and farmers who should
have filed such estimates face
a deadline Of January 31st. AL
though the tax law adopted in
1854 changed these deadlines-
to January 31st and February
18th, respectively. these chang
eS do not take effect until pay
ments are made in 1856.
The final classic effort for
the bedraggled taxpayer, how
ever is changed this year. This
last-gasp desperation push
which it is 10 so many mil
lionS-will not be necessary
until midnight of April 18th,
1855. In other words, the ave-
rage citizen is getting a thir-
tcen-month spread this time,
having completed his final re-
turns by March 18th, 1854, and
having another month before
such action is necessary this
year.

aries of judges TO be raised during
their elective terms and to issue
1l5 million dollars in bonds to

Ohio's mental and correctional in
stitutions.

recommended jobless pay and
compensation be liberalized, slam
