NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 4 R.-
A steadily deteriorating surplus
problem kept the cotton market
on the defensive virtually
throughout 1855.
AS the surplus mounted. prices
sagged, volume Of trading in fu-
ture contracts on the New Or
leans, New York and other cotton
exchanges fell alarmingly, and
uncertainty" became a daily BY
word in the trade.
Traders found it exceedingly
difficult to see their way cleal
to establishing any extensive
positions in the market while
trying to separate politics ano
economics in relation to the
cotton problem. This made fol
a thin market susceptible tt
highly cratic movements.
Indecision on the political
front as to what to do about
the surplus and contributory
problems seemed to be as great
if not greater, than that within
the trade itself.
Futures contracts representing
deliveries into 1856 and 1857 fel

current price-as much as
cents a pound, or about $25 pei

Sentiment grew in the market
place that lower prices are aheac
for cotton If any real effort
is made to rid this country Of

TAX MEMOS
Expenses Of Sofori

TAX MEMOS

The following are summarized
from recent rulings Of the Tax
Court of the United States and
rulings Of the Internal Revenue
Service:
Safari DeductibIe: The presi-
dent Of a dairy and his wife, both
experienced hunters. made big
game hunting safari in Africa.
The company paid the $15,61s
expenses. The couple brought
back films of the trip which
were shown TO customers and
prospective customers, trophies
/ for the dairy's collection, and
two leopards and q tiger. given
Ito the towns ZOO. The Internal
Revenue Commissioner dis
allowed the cost as a company
expense and taxed the amount
as income of the president and
his wife.
Held: The cost Of the safari
was deductible as a relatively
small part of the dairy's adver-
Itising program. The advertising
obtained could not have been had
for the same money in any more
normal way. No part of the cost
is taxable against the president
and his wife as personal travel
and pleasure expense. They adj
mitted enjoying hunting, but
enjoyment of ones work does not
make that work a mere personal
hobby or the cost Of a hunting

Review OF Year
The 1855 housing year took on
from the springboard OF the sur
prising construction boom OF
1854. The last quarter OF 1854
was a record breaker for hous-
ing starts. In January. 1853
housing starts were at the sea-
sonally adjusted rate Of 1,4l9,OOO

that easy terms on Government

able In the midst Of . housing

Credit Terms TiGhteneA

maximum length OF mortgages

The home-building rate. how
ever. had begun to slow down
as early as May. Starting IN
January, the Government began
to put into effect q whole series
Of credit-tightening measures on
the economy in general. Interest
rates were rising all along the
line. Expanding business de-
manded credit, competing with
demand for mortgage credit. The
shortage of mortgage money be-
came acute in some areas. Some
communities were reported over
built.
Economists predict continued
housing boom. The times are
prosperous. People want and can
pay for better homes. The popu-
lation is rising and mobile. The
size both of home owning fam
lilies and the homes they buy
are increasing. These are long
term trends.
Incomes Increase
The median income of buyers
Of new homes under FILA rose
from $3.50 in 1949 to $3.50 in
1854, the latest year for which
figures are available. The median
property value of their homes
rose from $500 to $10.578 in
this period. A moderate increase
in nome prices Is expected this
year.
The Commerce and Labor De-
partments estimate new con-
struction expenditures for 1855
at a record $42 billion compared
with $37,577 ,000, 900 in 1854. A
new peak of $44 billion. or 5 per
cent better than last year, Is
predicted for 1856.
