Workers
Report Due

Employers of household work
ers should remember the dead
line for reporting earnings of
and paying the social security
taxes for their domestic en-
ployes. The report covering
April, May and June must be
filed by July 81 with the Dis
trict Director, Internal Revenue
Service, Baltimore, Md.
Each such employee who is
paid $50 or more cash wages in
the calender quarter must be in
cluded in the report. A simpli-
fled envelope type of tax re-
turn which Internal Revenue
Service provides is the easiest
way for most of you to furnish
the necessary information and
to pay the social security tax.
Each employee must be reported
by name, social security account
number and amount of cash
wages paid. The employees tax
is 214 percent and the employ
er's share is 21ia percent, total
5 percent of the wages paid.
These returns will serve as
the basis for determining whether
social security benefits are pay
able, and the amount of the
monthly benefit rate. 1t is very
important that the reports be
prepared properly and be filed
on time.
For further information re-
garding social security tax re-
turns, consult the Internal Rev
enue office in the WOODWORK
Shopping Center at Four Cor
nerS. For further information
concerning old-age, survivors,
or disability benefits, feel free
to call on the social security rep
resentative located at the Gath

A measure that all but

out Montgomery County
was passed this week by the
Montgomery County Coun-
Gil.
The measure, in the form Of
an amendment to the coming
code, goes into effect immedi-

Only exception to the new
regulation are multi-family, or
apartment dwellings in Com
mercial-2 zones, if those devel-
opments are constructed under

that there must be 5000 square
feet of ground for each apart
ment unit.
A county attorney who spe-
cializes in coming cases and
County Attorney Alfred H. Car
ter said that the prohibitive cost
of land today in the populous
sections of the county would
preclude building apartments in
commercially-zoned areas.
Therefore the Council all but
closed the door on dwellings in
commercial zones. 1t refused,
however to act on proposals by
the Maryland.National Capital
Park and Planning Commission
that would have barred CONNER
cial development of land zoned
for industrial use.
They refused to act on the lat.
ter proposal until further study
Is made.

in its unanimously adopted opin.
ion, eliminate major coming dis.
ruption." The use of land for
other than commercial pur-
poses, once so zoned, "immedi.

the Council declared.
'If the owner desires to use
the property for multi-family
housing, it should be rezoned
for that use" the Council opin-
ion said.
