New Tiros Satellite in Orbit;
I Transmits Storm Pictures

at nearby Greenbelt, Md,
were in every respect equal in
quality to fixed-station pic
lures
Technicians at Wallops Is
land tried out the conventional
weather camera on the sixth
orbit, about 2:45 pm. yester-
day. This camera Is similar to
those on seven other Tiros Sat-
elites that have been giving
weather data on a regular basis
over a total span Of more than
three years The verdict was
that the camera was working
but that it is too early to tel
about the quality of these pic
lures.

stations all over the world
from as far north as Fairbanks,
Alaska, to as far south as Nc

APT will not give its ground

picture. 1t will. however, pro-
vide a quick look at conditions
within a thousand miles or so
of the ground station.
In tropical ATTITUDES, espe-
cially, 1t is expected to be a

Another Success
The Thor-Delta rocket
which launched TiroS-S from
Cape Kennedy, Fla, at 4:3C
am. yesterday, was the 21st in
an unbroken string of success

brought NASA oribtal attemps
this year to 10 successes in 10

ago.
The rocket placed TiroS-8 into
a Inn St exactly the orbit
planned-altitude from 436 to
468 miles; inclination to equa-
tor, 58.5 degrees; orbital period,
SO minutes.
Originally planned for a Fri

Chou in AIgiers;
Security Tight

ALGIERS. Dec. 81 (AP).-
Premier Chou En-lai of Com
munist China arrived from

Africa.
Mr.. Chou, Foreign Minister
Chen vi and several others

cloudy weather by Algerian

Foreign Minister Abdelaziz
Bouteflika and other officials.
The stiffest security meas
ures ever taken in newly indie
pendent Algeria kept onlookers

In a welcoming speech, Mr.
Ben Bella Endorsed the Mos
cow-backed policy Of peaceful
co-existence with capitalistiC
countries-a policy scorned by
the Chinese Communists.
Peace must be assured" Mr.
Ben Bella said. "Only by vigil

in reality. Peaceful co-exis-

To-day our two peoples have
before us the common task of
fighting imperialism, colonial

CORDLESS HEARING AID

ELMSFORD, N. Y. Especially.
The famed acoustic engineers
of Sonotone Corporation have
developed the smallest hearing
aid Sonotone ever made to help
the deafened-in fact, it's one
Of the worlds smallest!
Everything is worn in the ear
for cordless hearing. There are
no outside cord, tube or wires.
Nothing is worn anywhere else
except in the ear.
To prove the new "Wisp-
Ear"8 can be worn in the ear,
a limited number of plastic

Budgetary Confusion

Senate Stays on Job
Through yesterday, Senate
leaders were for and against

However, brokers felt the

YOUR MONEYS WORTH
What Tax Bill
Means to YOU'LL
By SYLVIA PORTER

! Again. the new 500 deducti-
bic rule would apply TO your
itemized personal deductions
but not to casualty losses con-
nected with your business or
the production Of income.
On personal casualty loss de-
auctions. the 500 deductible
rule would apply to each cas-
ualty. not to each item dam
aged or destroyed. Say a bad
storm simultaneously caused
uninsured damage Of $500 to
your house, 5000 to your ga
rage and $500 to your personal
property and cara total of
81 100. You could deduct $1,000
as a casualty loss. Only one
500 would be wasted because
all the damages resulted from
one casualty.
The 500 floor would apply
to each individual, but q mar
ried person filing a joint re-
turn would be treated as one
person with his wife. Thus. if
property which you and your
wife own jointly is damaged to
the extent of $500 by a casual
ty, you could deduct $500 on
your Joint income tax return. II
you filed separate returns.
though, you could deduct q to-
tai Of only $500 because the
$500 damage would become a
$3.50 loss for each of you and
that loss would be cut by 500
for each of you.
II you use your car half for
business and half for pleasure
and suffer q $50 casualty dam
age in an accident in 1864, the
new rule would permit you to
deduct half, or $45. as a casual
ty loss. This is the half allocable
to business use Of your car.
The $45 allocable to the half
personal use of your car would
be nondeductible under the
proposed rule.
Obviously, not all Of the
1868 tax bill is designed to
create new tax breaks for us
or to cut our tax rates.

breaks on life insurance.
