Mixed Market
Turns Higher in
Active Trading

NEW YORK, Nov. % (P).-
The stock market moved irregu-
larly higher in fairly active
trading this afternoon.
Leading issues were ahead
narrowly but here and there
was a l or 2 point gamer.
There was an assortment of
fractional losers.
Aircrafts were higher at the
start as news of missiles
brought these stocks into the
limelight. The list was gen.
orally mixed in early trading.
Prices began to move ahead as
the session went into the after
noon.
Some profit-taking was evil
dent on the strong advances of
the past two sessions, which
were based on expectations
that the Federal Reserve Board
would take further broad action
to loosen credit.
A slackening in retail trade
and the news that the cost of
living index held steady in
October for the first time in
IA months instead of rising,
were background factors.
The Associated Press average
of so stocks at noon was up
10 cents to $l56.90, with the
industrials up 40 cents. the rails
up 20 cents and the utilities
unchanged.
Corporate bonds were higher.

last In a series of fue coluntns

This is the last of five coll
umns giving you guides on what
to do now to save money on
your 1857 income tax.
Are you among the millions
OF owners Of stocks who, as a
result Of this years violent ups
and downs in the stock market,
have either big gains or losses
-or both-on your securities?
In a short column, it would
be ridiculous even to attempt
a detailed analysis of selling
securities for tax purposes. But
some basic points are in order.
First. you must recognize how
important the capital gain and
loss provisions of our income
tax laws are. If, for instance.
you sell a stock you have owned
for six months or less at a
profit. you have a short-term
capital gain and 1t will be taxed
in full as ordinary income. If
you sell it at a profit after you
have held it for over six
months, you have a long-term
capital gain and it will be taxed
at a minimum rate of rs per
cent.
II. though. you sell stocks at
losses. the losses are taken into
account at a full 100 per cent.
And you can use those losses to
offset any capital gains and up
to $1,000 of ordinary income
this year, and you can carry
forward" losses above $1,000 to
offset any gains or $1,000 of
ordinary income a year during
the next five years.
Just this short explanation
underlines how you can turn
mistakes in stock investments
into comforting tax savings-if
you plan in time.
So this week end, list all the
securities you have sold SO far
in 1857, separate them into
short-term or long-term trans
actions and figure out the pre-
else total of gains or losses you
have taken.
simultaneously. list all the
securities you still own on
which you have paper gains or
losses, also dividing them into
short or long-term.
Then call on your broker.
banker or adviser this coming
week; take these lists with you:
discuss in detail whether you
should make additional moves
to give you tax savings this
year or to lay the basis for tax
savings in the succeeding five
years.
Remember that the privilege
OF carrying forward tax losses
is really valuable. If you take
losses in excess Of $1,000, you
can apply the excess to offset
income you receive in 1858,
1859 and up to 1862.
Use this tax selling period to
get rid Of the dogs" in your
portfolio and to eliminate stocks
that seem headed for the wall
paper class. A stock quoted in
pennies may be worth many
dollars in tax savings.
Are you getting married next
year?
OF course, tax angles aren't
deciding your wedding date F!
But you should note that once
you are married. you will get
the privilege of income split
ting and this is the equivalent
Of tax reduction for you.
Thus. if you are to be mar
ried in 1858. consider postpon-

Panel Discussion Held
On Child Welfare
Session Was Held At Georgetown
Last Thursday Evening

Welfare workers who have de-
voted their lives to children oe-
Veloped the same theme in their
panel discussion on services pro-
vided for Delaware children held
at the Sussex County Department
of Welfare office near Georgetown
last Thursday night.
They spoke on entirely different
subjects--foster homes, protective
care, adoption, licensing of day
care centers, and the like-but they
all remarked somewhere along the
line of their explanation that a
child was always better and hap
pier if matters could be so
Strengthened out that they could
remain with their own parents and
as the second best arrangement,
could be placed in a family who
would consider the child as their
own.
Edgar Hare, director of the State
Department of Public Welfare, was
moderator of the panel.
