Star Sends
$2,5o0Gifts
To5CoIIeees

The Washington Evening
Star announced today inaugu-
ration of a program Of gifts to
five universities in the District
Of Columbia. for the financing
of faculty research projects.
George Washington, Ameri-
can, Georgetown. Catholic and
Howard universities each re-
ceived $4,000 for use in the
academic year 1957-l958. Sam
uel H. Kaufman, president
Of the Star company, said it
was intended to repeat the gifts
on an annual basis.
I'VE feel it is important, "he
said. "for concerns such as
ours to recognize tangibly the
part these great educational
institutions play in our COM
munity life"
Mr.. Kaufman explained
that it will be the RESPONSE
bility of each university to
select yearly a member of it's
faculty to receive Star funds,
enabling him to conduct a
special research project in his
field of interest.
"The intention" Mr.. Kauff-
mann said. lis simply to help
deserving faculty members to
fulfill themselves as scholars,
to the benefit of the universities
and. ultimately, the commu-
nifty"
The program was developed
by The Star in consultation
with the universities con-
cerned.

civil service. He told American
Legion department commanders
and adjutants at indianapolis
yesterday that this is one Of the
obstacles faced in recruiting
talented people for Federal po-
sitions.
1T is our aim during 1853, :"
he continued. Ito wipe away
that obstacle by giving the
American public a new aware
ness Of the Federal career serv-I
ice. the people in it. and the
contributions being made by
both to good government.
I'VE must replace fancy with
fact. rumor with truth. Only in
this way can we gain for the

attract into Federal service the
people needed to carry on sue
cessfully the business of our

Rural letter carriers in this area
will be interested in an article
in the publication The National
Rural Letter Carrier which
points out how they are being
penalized by rising prices of
automobiles.
1t relates that prices for one
of the "low priced three" widely
used by the carriers are being
raised by 500 to $157. But the
carriers equipment mainten-
ance allowance remains at
8 cents a mile. a figure estab-
lished in 1851. Says the publi-
cation:
"A l-cent per mile increase
on a 50-mile rural route would
mean less than $3.50 per annum
additional equipment allowance.
That would barely pay for the
price increases in 1858 cars"

Farm Experts
Meet 10 Study
1858 Outlook

The farm economy goes
under exhaustive analysis today
as experts gather at the Agri-
culture Department for. the
35th Annual National Agri-
cultural Outlook Conference.
Some $50 extension workers
from AZ States. Hawaii and
Puerto Rico will discuss the
outlook - both broadly and in
detail - with leading econo-
mists and officials from several
Federal agencies. At the end of
the four-day conference, they
will return to the field to pass
on their conclusions to help
farmers plan operations.
Today's sessions begin with
analysis of the world situation
as it affects agriculture. Ex-
ports are a key to agricultural
markets and prices.
This afternoons schedule
calls for discussion Of the
United States economy, par
ticularly as it will influence ag-
riculture. In remarks prepared
to keynote this session, Ag-
riculture Department Econo-
mist Nathan M. Koffsky con-
cludes that economic activity
has "leveled off," and predicts
the more or less sidewise
movement (will) continue well
into 1883"
While investment spending
by business and Government
may gradually work lower"
Mr.. Koffsky said. consumer
expenditures "could welr take
up the slack The Nation
does mot face the size of the
reduction (of spending) which
occurred in the mild recession
Of 1953-54." he added.
AS a result, Mr.. Koffsky con-
cluded, I'VE see no real reason
why consumer income and con-
sumner demand for food during
most of the year ahead should
be essentially different then
at present"

News & World Report maya
zine, that generally speaking,
yes" it is the people with large
expense accounts on whom the
service will check carefully.
"a revenue agent isn't going
to spend lot of time on small
amounts" he said at one point.
Requirement Ignored
Ever since 1921, the law has
required that an employee who
incurs business expenses for
which his employer repays him
must report as income the
money he receives in payment.
He then may deduct his ex-
penses. But that requirement
has been generally ignored by
many with small expense ac-
counts and the revenue service
has not complained.
The revenue service has
changed 1857 income tax forms
to require listing totals of these
items on Form l040 itself (the
"long form" used by persons
with incomes exceeding $4,000
yearly instead of on a separate
sheet of paper. That led to
reports Of an intensive crack
down. which IRIS officials
sought informally to contradict
with word that little change
was anticipated.
Mr.. Harrington gave some
backing to that view even while
describing the reports as in
correct.
He was asked whether agents
would be lenient in going over
the 1857 returns "for omissions
Of the kind that people have
been making for years"
Inere Will be no change in
that for the 1857 returns" Mr..
Harrington replied.
"Put People on Notice"
At another point he said,
Nov we have put people on
notice. So. beginning with
1858. we will be in a position to
adopt a stricter attitude in ex-
aiming these expense &C
counts"
For those reporting. he said,
Some accounts would obvious
ly have to be estimates, OF at
least not supported by vouch-
ers." On the returns. he add
ed, only lump sums need be
used for car expenses, hotel
costs and other categories.
More details will be required
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-11-18

only If the return is questioned.
Asked what should be done
by a taxpayer who had kept no
records because he didn't know
he had to this year, Mr.. Har-
rington said. He could reiy on
secondary evidence (estimates)
of the Type I previously dis
cussed."
He said the service would not
require ~any more detailed in
formation to support these
claims for deductions than we
have in the past"
