$4,000 Tax
Claim Against
Builder Upset

A Government tax tribunal
has ruled that the Internal
Revenue Service was wrong in
claiming that Arlington builder
Randolph D. Rouse owes $140,-
900 in back taxes.
The primary issue in the tax
dispute was whether gains real
lied by Mr.. Rouse on the sale
of houses which he had held
for rental purposes would be
treated as ordinary income or
a long-term capital gains.
IRIS officials commended that
the Arlington developer had
improperly listed as capital
gains the profits he made from
the sale of nearly 40 homes In
nearby Virginia In 1858, 50
and IS. AS a consequence, the
IRIS declared that Mr.. Rouse's
income tax deficiencies in the
three years were, respectively,
$58,721, $4,000 and $35,257. =
The claimed deficiencies were
largely overruled by the de-
ciSion handed down by the Tax
Court Of the United States.
Capital Gain Upheld
The court this week stated
that although corporations
controlled by Mr.. Rouse had
built the homes in question,
the proceeds from their sale
was properly listed as a capt.
tai gain since Mr.. Rouse, as an
individual, had purchased them
for investment and had held
them for rental purposes for
periods Of six months or longer.
The court, however, upheld
in part an IRIS claim that the
petitioner (Mr. Rouse) had i'm
properly claimed depreciation
deductions for the houses dur
ing rental periods before their
sale.
In its ruling, the court stated
in connection with this ques-
ton that the IRIS was IN error
in disallowing the depreciation
deductions with the expection
of the deductions claimed for
tax years on houses actually
sold during the tax years.
To Be RecOmputed
Noted in the opinion was cost
and sale data concerning a
group of 20 homes built more
than 10 years ago in the Great
Forest subdivision Of Falls
Church.
All 20 homes. the file shows,
were acquired by Mr.. Rouse in
1850 and 1851. Most were sold
by him in 1858, "a and IS.
Seven of the houses were
bought in May, 1850, for ST.
765 each-the lat cost" price.
All seven were sold from 1851
to 1854 for prices ranging from
$19,500 to $22,500.
Court rules state that a final
adjustment in the tax defici-
ency claims will be arrived at
after both parties-the Gov
eminent and the builder-re-
compute the tax for the 1853
SIS tax years on the basis Of
the courts decision. :.
Fred r. Tansill, an attorney
for Mr.. Rouse, estimated that
the decision will eliminate as
much as 80 per cent Of the
claimed deficiency. o..

Bergman Eyes
Shocks to Rout
Stadium Birds

Pigeons roosting atop D. G.
Stadium may be in for a shock.
An investigative team Of
bird-proofers has been called
in to tackle the stadium's latest
headache, Arthur ]. (Dutchl
Bergman, Armory Board man
ager, announced yesterday, fol-
lowing a board meeting.
Pigeon and starting roosting
places in the downtown area
have rapidly dwindled as a re-
suit Of a special electric shock
method. Mr.. Bergman said this
method may also be the best
way to rid the stadium Of pige-
ons.
He added that a crew Of five
at the stadium have been clean
ing up after the pigeons but
that, obviously, a better solu-
ton is needed.
The board also announced It
will soon invite bids for man
agement of parking lots sur
rounding the stadium and ar
mory.
Mr.. Bergman said the board
is considering turning over OPP
Grating Of the lots Of a private
party on a lease basis.

their morale went higher
than the weather balloons

inundated Wallop's Island,

Whole families were still
together, bedded down in in

and sound asleep, curled up
against their mothers, even
though transistor radios were
still turned on. Teen-agers
roamed the halls and had
midnight cokes and coffee in
the cafeteria, still open and
manned by the Woman's Aux
iliary of the Pocomoke VOL

girls were rolling their hair
up in anything they could
find while the boys compared
helicopter rides.
Most of the women from
the Chincoteague Fire De-

of the thousands of natives
who were still there, many of
them housed in the Baptist

The Federal Government,
about to enter into widespread
relations with its employees
unions, is in hot water with
one union it has been dealing
with for years.
Jesse Manbeck, president of
the Columbia Typographical
Union, made public yesterday
a letter detailing a long list
Of complaints against James
l.. Harrison, the public printer.
Mr.. Harrison runs the Gov
eminent Printing Office, which
turns out the great mass of
printed material issued by the
Federal Government. For years,
under a special law enacted
by Congress, the office has
been required to deal with the
Printers and other unions
representing printing crafts.
Mr.. Harrison's plant has some
5000 employees.
When President Kennedy
issued a recent executive order
requiring Government agencies
to extend recognition to Gov
eminent employe unions repre-
Senting a majority of employees
in agencies, the Printing Office
was exempted because of the
special law.

New pressure for a congress

gence Agency was predicted
today following approval Of
John A. McCone as its director.
Mr.. McCone, wealthy Los
Angeles industrialist and for

Energy Commission. won Senate
confirmation for the CHA post

Forty-three Democrats and
20 Republicans joined in ap-
proving President Kennedy's
choice to succeed CHA chief
Allen w. Dulles who retired
last November 20. Ten Demo-
Gratis and two Republicans
Margaret Chase Smith Of Maine
and Francis Case Of South Da-
kota-opposed the nomination.
Democrats opposed to con-
firmation were Senators Bur-
dick of North Dakota, Robert
C. Byrd of West Virginia, Full
bright Of Arkansas. Gruening
of Alaska, Lausche Of Ohio,
Mccarthy of Minnesota, Met
calf of Montana, Neuberger Of
Oregon, Proxmire of Wisconsin.
and Stephen M. Young of Ohio.
Holdings Questioned
The vote came after three
days Of speeches which CEN
tered mainly on questioning
whether Mr.. McCone's holdings
i'm oil and shipbuilding firms
might create a conflict OF in
terest.
Mr.. McCone, go, q Republic

Senator Humphrey Of Min

cratic leader, said today the
Kennedy administration will
make q great mistake If II

see the CHA.

conference yesterday shortly
after the Senate confirmed Mr.
McCone that Congress does
