Committee voted funds today
for 299 additional staff posi-
tons at st. Elizabeths Hos
pital, instead of the $50 the ad-
ministration recommended for
the fiscal year beginning July /.
1t allotted $3.50, 900 for the
institution, $166,000 more than
was requested. The additional
$166,000 was for staff positions.
The committee recalled that
the budget for the present fis-
cal year called for an increase
of 299 positions as the first
major step in a proposed staff :
ing program of several years
duration. That move was made
as the result of a survey show
ing many serious deficiencies.
the committee said.
Committee Disappointed
"The committee was surprised
and disappointed that the
budget submitted for the fiscal
year 1862 provided for only $50
additional positions, thus fall
ing short by so per cent of the
program initiated last year, +"
the committee stated. 1.-The in

tee will provide for approx

Your Share Of Federal Taxes
Where does your federal tax

federal tax expenditures for the
Individual person, but a recent
issue of the Taxpayers Dollar"
publication by the Chamber of

does 9 g9odjok of figuring Just
What you, as an Individual, pay
for the many items included in
the national budget. The Bureau
of the Budget says the system is
as accurate as anything yet de-
vised.
The State Chamber-MEC, in
order to give Mississippians an
evening of economic enlighten-
ment while figuring their income
tax, passes the system on to you.
To help you get started, here is
an example. Say the tax payer
pays $1,000 in federal income
tax in his return for 1860. The
Bureau says other taxes, such
as excise, corporation, and many
hidden" taxes, increases the
figure by 50 per cent. Eighty
two per cent of $1,000 is $500,
making the total federal income
tax in this example not tn
1000. but 1920. Using that
formula to get your total federal
income tax, you use the per-
below to get how much
you are individually paying to
some of the major budget items.
taxes you have paid for the year.
Here are steps you take in
figuring out your share:
First, take the amount of fed
eral income tax YOU paid, as re-
ported on your 1860 return. Then
get 81 per cent of that amout
to take care of your hidden"
and other federal taxes paid but
not on your return. Add the 80
per cent to the amount reported.
This gives you the total federal
Now. using the total figure,
