LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov.
(AP). - Senator Thruston B
Morton 4swept to reelection
yesterday on a tide of urban
votes which also gave the Blue
grass State a second Republic
can Congressman.
Sneator Morton, a former
q. o. P. National chairman,
won by about $4,000 votes over
Democratic 1t. Gov. Wilson
Wyatt. More than 300, 900 bal
lots were cast in a record
turnout.
M. G. (Gene) Snyder, a con-
sentative Republican, rode
along with Senator Morton's
strong support and unseated
incumbent Frank Burke for
Congress in the populous Sd
District Of Louisville.
Backed by Kennedy
Mr.. Burke ran with President
Kennedy's strong backing. So
did Mr.. Wyatt, Federal hous-
ing administrator during the
administration of former Presi-
dent Truman.
Mr.. Kennedy and Mr.. Tfu-
man campaigned for the DEM
ocratic nominees last month.
Former President Eisenhower
appeared for the G. o. P. can
didates.
Mr.. Snyder won by $500
votes. Genator Morton took the
Sd D. ,Crict by $4,000, showed
decisive strength in major cities
and, surprisingly, shaved nor
mally heavy Democratic mar
gins in Western Kentucky.
Senator Morton, Sc, became
the first Republican Senator
from Kentucky to win two con-
secutive six-year terms. Not
since the 1854 victory of the
late Alben Barley have Ken
lucky Democrats elected a
United States Senator.
Kentucky now has five Dem
ocratic and two Republican
Congressman - including Eu-
gene Siler, the only G. o. p.
House member in the Nation
without opposition.

Save on Toxes-W
bY SYLVIA PORTER

TN collaboration with The Research
Institute Of America)
Many businessmen In recent
years have been underpricing
or underlisting their invento-
ries as an "easy" way to cut in
come taxes.
The Treasury Is aware of this
and the Internal Revenue Serv-
ice has ordered a crack down
on the practice.
The IRIS knows that under
valuing inventory at the close
of the tax year permits the firm
to obtain a deduction from tax
able income but. nowhere on
the return or on the regular
books Of the company is this
deduction shown. For instance,
If a business has an actual
year-end inventory Of $500, 900,
but the listing and pricing Of
the inventory is shown as $780,
900, there is a cut in taxable
income of $4,000.
Traps Planned
Knowing this, IRIS Commits
Sioner Mortimer M. Caplin is
out to trap businessmen who
follow this practice - and he
has designed several steps to
achieve his objective.
If you're in business and
have inventories, this report
can be of value to you.
The 1861 business tax forms
include questions aimed at dis
closing by how much a busi-
ness inventory was valued at
less than its cost. This figure
will stand out as a deduction
which the taxpayer will have
to support. If you do not
answer this question, your re-
turn will be given a high prior
ity for examination.
Mr.. Caplin isn't relying solely
on a taxpayers statements to
reveal underpricing of. inven-
tory. He has ordered IRIS
agents to check inventories
with extra special care an area
of examination rarely probed
before this.
What's more, the agents will
not limit themselves to a check
Of your pricing and arithmetic.
They have various Short-term
accounting techniques which
will reveal any substantial un-
dercutting of inventories. For
instance, an agent may check
your purchases of inventory
items during the final months
of your last taxable year and
your sales during the first few
months of your new taxable
year to determine whether the

The Nations independent
banks, in a new acknowledge
ment Of rivalry from savings
and loan associations, have
published a manual on the
enemy.
Under the laconic title, 1.-THE
Commercial Bankers Guide to
the Savings & Loan Industry"
10000 copies Of the 50-page
booklet are being mailed this
week by the Independent Bank
ers Association to its mem
bers mostly in the Midwest.
It promises to be a best
seller in the financial fratern-
ity.
1T seems obvious that we
should study closely a competi-
tor" comments IBA President
Reed H. Albig Of McKeesport,
Pa, in an accompanying letter
to members, whose assets in
the last is years have sky
rocketed at a rate over five
times those of commercial
banks :"
Although the prospect of pub
fishing q knife job about it's
rival must have been allur-
ing, the IBA has used a mild
tone in its handbook.
Attempt to Educate
I'VE found that many bank
ers were surprisingly ignorant
Of how savings and loan as
sociations operate" said a
spokesman. land this is a
straightforward attempt to ed
ucate members about them"
The author Of the text is
Paul D. Lagomarcino, 40-year-
old counsel to the IBA's COM
mittee on sag mgs and loan
associations, with a broad back
ground in tax and banking
law. His experience includes
private practice with Coving-
ton & Burling here, as professor
of law at the University of
Buffalo, and consultant to the
New York State Bankers As
sociation on branch banking
legislation.
The guidebook covers the
history of savings and loan
institutions, traces their growth
since World War II, and pays
tribute to their management.
"These institutions have en-
couraged thrift through the
payment of high interest rates,
financed homes, and introduced
a new element of competition
in banking" admits the guide.
1t even adds a bouquet for
"the imagination that loan as
sociationS brought to bear"
on favorable tax laws and a
hungry postwar market for
housing funds.
At the same time, the book
let quietly makes its point that
any industry, given such a tax
exempt climate" and sellers
market, could have done well
too.
The guide reserves a few
barbs for the Federal Home
Loan Bank Board which regu-
lates S & Is, and criticizes
s & Is for their failure to
channel more funds into VA
and FILA mortgages.
