you'll save on taxes. And re-
member, too. that ther are cell
ings on the standard deduction
of $500 for a married person
filing separately and $1,000 for
JAIL others. This means you may
not be able to get even the full
10 per cent from a standard de-
duction If your income is over a
certain amount.
/ The first itemized deduction
on page two covers contributions.
@ Are only contributions by
cash or check deductible?
A. No-You can deduct the
value of any property which you
gave to a charitable. religious,
educational. etc., organization.
For example, If you gave cloth
ing to a charitable organization
such as the International Rescue
Committee for the Aid of
Refugees, the value of the cloth
ing can also be deducted.
Also, you can deduct expenses
in connection with charitable
work. Thus. If your wife runs
a car for a recognized charitable
institution-such as the Red
Cross-the expenses for gasoline.
oil, ETC., will be deductible as
charitable deductions. So will
the cost and maintenance of her
Red Cross uniforms. You can
also claim a deduction for costs
OF cakes or foods furnished to
charity bazaars; food baskets
given as donations; household
articles, books, clothing, paint
lings. equipment or supplies given
for sale in Embarrassing auctions
or baZaars.
Services Not Deductible
@. Can I also claim a deduc-
ton for the value of my services
rendered to the charity?
| A. No. You can't deduct the
value Of services rendered. And
it's rather startling that if you
give blood to charitable or
ganization, this is viewed as a
nonoeductible rendition of serv-
ices.
@. I let my favorite charity
use my auto to carry on certain
charitable work and also allowed
ut to use my Office once a month
for a meeting of the members
OF the charity. How much can 1
deduct for these?
A. Nothing. Rent free use of
property is not considered a
charitable contribution by the
, Treasury.

Defense organization. / spent

Khrushchev's Latest Scare Tactics

in such a conference, If it ever
took place. Among these would
be the unification Of Germany.
perhaps the single most ex.
plosive issue before Europe to-
day. Another would be the
eventual freeing, Of the satel-
lites of Eastern and Central
Europe from the Communist
yoke. On this subject, he said.
the Reds would be unyielding.
One wonders. at this point,
just what Khrushchev has in
mind as pertinent to a serious
East West peace discussion.
Since he has ruled out the two
most important issues affecting
Europe, what would he then
put on the agenda? The only
conclusion is that an Ameri-
can-Soviet parley would have
to be confined to trivia.

no doubt that it is the settled

Yet Khrushchev apparently

So long as we continue to keep

The latest pronunciamento
Of Comrade Khrushehev for
the benefit Of the Western
world was a little less than
convincing, II the Soviet boss
thought to wean the free peo-
pie not yet subject to the die
tates Of Moscow away from
their freedoms.
Khrushchev. talking freely to
Turner Catledge, managing
editor Of the New York Times,
said 1t was "indisputable" that
the United States planned a
war Of aggression against the
Communist nations.
To document his contention.
the willy and genially danger
Gus Kremlin chief pointed out
the indubitable fact that the
United States was looking care
fully to its military strength.
It was stockpiling weapons. It
was not directly negotiating
with the Soviet Union. he said.
Therefore in Communist think
ing, the United States was con-
templating an aggressive war
against Russia and its satel-
lites.
How ingenious can even a
Communist pretend to be?
Does Khrushchev really think
that his Red nations record
since the end Of World War II
and long before that, if the
truth be known-iS of a char
acter designed to inspire con-
fidence in the rest of the
world?
Surely America is preparing
for war. But the war we pre-
pare for is not one of aggres-
sion, or even Of initiative. The
safety-first concept of preven-
tive war against the Com
munists has been effectively
repudiated more than once by
American officials from the
President on down. Such re-
pudiation may be foolhardy,
for no one close to the real
nature Of the Communist con-
spiracy doubts that the Reds
will strike Just as soon as they
