GUINEA MILLS. Nav 4
There are many fish tales told
bat here is a new one. Last Sun
day w: NJ. Bill" Rowe was
standing out in his yard when
he saw a fish hawk diving into
w. c. Hedrick S pond A short
while late the hawk started to
fly over Bills house. When he
noticed that the hawk was car
rying something he began to
wave his hat at it and the hawk
turned and flew back toward
Hedrick's chicken house. Just as
the hawk passed the chicken
house he dropped what ever it
was he was carrying.
Curiosity caused Bill to 90 i'm
mediately to see if he could find
out what was dropped. Imagine
his surprise to find an eleven
inch bass in the dirt and still
alive. Who else has been able
to stand in their yard and find
good mess of fish without even
fishing?

: will outline IRIS policies on

on the first day of general
sessions.
A panel of department heads
! from the service will answer
questions on expense accounts
and other items at the Friday
morning general session at the

Some 900 men and women
executives from across the Ma
ton are expected to attend the
5Oth convention, which will be
preceded by three days of COM
mittee and board meetings.
C. j. Mack Of Washington.
president CT the national esso-
, citation and general manager
of the Mayflower, said last
night that talk about limiting
deductable business travel ex-
penses to an unrealistic $50 a
day had caused much conster-
nation in hotel circles in recent
months. Although Congress has
not gotten around to any new
tax legislation this session. the
hotel people still are very inter-
ested in the services thinking
about reducing business deduc-
tions.
Crackdown Is Expected
Talks with the service have
indicated it hopes to cut down
on deductions, but does not
intend to reject legitimate de-
ductions and seriously damage |
the convention business, Mr..
Mack declared.
. At least for the time being,
. fears have diminished that the
. $50 limit on travel deductions
might be written into law. A
business executive who has to
pay $50 a day for a hotel suite
for conferences would be out
of pocket quickly with such a
limit, Mr.. Mack said. 1t would
> be a serious blow to the con-
vention business, he added.
Another question is whether
a wife's expenses at a conVen-
tion should be deductable al
though Mr.. Mack said this al
fects the hotel association less
than some other trade groups.
This is because many women
are hotel managers and many
husband and wife teams OPP
crate in the hotel field, ne
explained.
If a wife's expenses were
held nondeductible, however,
it would have an extremely
bad effect on the hotel and
convention business. he said.
