The point is, as the Research
Institute says. these are not
"back-page" items. It's Just
common sense to follow the
tax bill as 1t moves through to
make sure you don't fall into Q
new tax pitfall or lose out on
any new tax break. ~

The tax bill is still in the
House Ways g. Means Com
mittee and isn't slated to reach
the House floor until after mid
July. The fate of this and other
legislation is clouded by the
civil rights crisis. II you aren't
aware of what the House tax
writer's have been deciding and
don't make plans accordingly
you can forfeit major tax saw
ings and actually lose tax
money.
Most people will be affected
by the decisions on tax ire
forms" the House committee
has reached If they become law
This is entirely aside from the
proposed tax cuts.
Some Of the decisions would
make it wise for you to delay
specific transactions, others
would suggest you speed UP
moves. In each case. the pur-
pose of your delay or speed UP
would be to benefit from a new
tax break or to avoid being
caught in a new tax trap. Here
are Just two illustrations un-
derlining the Importance OF
planning on the basis that the
House Committees decisions
will become part Of a 1868 tax
reduction-reform law.
Say you are over IS, have
owned your home at least five
years and are now offering il
for sale.
Tentative Decision
The House Committee has
tentatively decided that you
need not pay any tax on the
profit from your home up to q
selling price of $4,000. If you
sell your house for more thar
$4,000, your profit would be
tax-exempt in the ratio Of $780,
900 to the selling price.
What should you do, there
fore? You should delay your
sale until you know whether
this clause is to be in the Law
and when would be the effec-
tive date of the tax-exemption
This could mean big-time taS
savings for you.
Or say you have owned stocks
for three or more years and are
considering selling these at @
profit.
The House Committee has
tentatively voted a major slash
in the capital gains tax you
must pay on stocks held three
years or more. Today, on any
profit you take on stocks held
six months or over, you count
only so per cent Of the gain al
income and then pay, a tax Of
no more than so per cent or
the half-putting the maxi.
mum long-term capital gain
tax at Is per cent.
Benefits Outlined
Under the committees pro
poSal, only 80 per cent of you
very long-term gain would bt
counted as income and taxec
at no more than so per cent
putting the maximum capital
gains tax on stocks held three
years or more at 1875 per cent.
What should you do, there
fore? Unless you have compell-
ing reasons to sell stocks you
have owned three years OF
more, postpone the sales until
you see if the maximum tax is
cut to 1875 per cent. Concen-
trate your sales in stocks held
less than three years.

every member Of the staff
preserved the utmost courtesy

Christian and none Of his pred
eceSsors was more eager to
be President Of all the people,
regardless Of religious des."
The former Arkansas Con-
gresham recalled how he
told the Presid ent Of the
prayers being offered by
Baptist for him and he was
obviously moved by this assur-
aace."
Occasionally President
Kennedy gave our converse
ton a touch Of wholesome hui
NOR. For example, seeing Bill

House corridor one day he
said, after a cordial greeting
to my distinguished visitor,
You know, Brooks, Pm going
to South America a month
ahead Of DR.. Graham and I'll

The President also gently
ribbed Mr.. Hays, when the
latter once told him he was
going to speak on thirteen
Methodist college campuses,
remarking about Mr.. Hays
trying to sell Baptist wares to
MethodistS.
And when Mr.. Hays re-

Hebrew Congregation

At the special Jewish COM

in the Washington H e brew
Congregation, Meyer Field
man, Assistant Special COun-
sci to the late Chief Execu-
tive, recalled some Of the
many traits that endeared
President Kennedy to those
close to him and to fellow
Americans in general.
He remarked about Presi-
dent Kennedy's pride In the
flower gardens at the White
House and his Joy in looking
at them out Of his office win
dow.
81 saw JOhn-John (the Pres
ident's SOM walk down the

only two or three weeks ago
when John-John came to
breakfast and sat in the chair
of the Secretary Of State. The
President had just completed
an order Of transfer Of thou
sands of men in another part
of the world but he was una
BILE to coax John-John out Of
that chair"
Mr.. Feldman also told Of an
occasion when the busy Presi-
dent left a meeting to dictate
a letter Of coincidence to the
widow Of a postal employe
who had Just lost a loved one.
"And / also thought Of the
flashes Of wit he threw out
and how they hghtened the
burden Of those around him.
They represented a man so
full Of understanding and
compassion, courageous in
mind and spirit so that any,
one whose life he touched will
never be the same"

morning festive crowds had
gathered across the street Of
the church IN Georgetown,
which the neWly-elected Pres
ident had attended as a Sen
ator when in Washington.
Without Hat or Coat
Preparations for the mass
had started at an early hour
inside the church and the
rectory. Secret Service men
were busy checking details
awaiting the appearances Of
the Nations new Chief Ex-
ecutive. Everywhere there
was an electric current Of ex-
citement and anticipation.
When he came and walked
hatless and coatleSs along the
short street to the entrance Of
the church, cheers and ap-
plause accompanied each
stride. Inside the church he
quickly took a seat about half
way down the nave and
attentively followed the wor-
ship. \
Once the mass was over, he
walked briskly up the aisle
and outside the church.
Cheers again greeted his ap-
pearance and continued in
ripping fashion as he moved
down the street. Even after
he was gone, the crowds
stayed talking animatedly
about him and his coming
term Of office.
Monday ThrOng Greater
Last Monday the crowds
were far greater, with every
inch Of space across the street
from st. Matthew's Cathedral
packed and nearby Connecti-
cut avenue equally jammed.
A sense Of deep sorrow welled
out of the throng, some Of
whom had come during the
night to obtain a good stand
ing space.
All eyes followed the coffin
as 1t was taken from the
horse drawn caisson by the
honor guard and carried into
the cathedral. In that usually
noisy city street silence took
over. It was the same after
the mass when the coffin
emerged from the cathedral
for the last long sad ride to
Arlington Cemetery.
The crowd was slow In dis
persing, as II reluctant to bid
farewell to the man who had
given so much glamour and
vitality to the presidency.
Those who spoke did so in
subdued voices, unwilling to
mar by loud tones the rev.
erent mood that prevailed.

For I'd Division
By the Associated Press

The I'd Infantry Division at
Fort Benning, Ga, will be the
first of IA Army divisions to
be reorganized into smaller,
more mobile units.
The Army, announcing yes
terday that reorganization of
the I'd would begin Immediately,
said it will take two years to
complete the changeover.
In all, IA infantry, airborne
and armored divisions in the
United States and abroad will
be reorganized. Two new divi-
sions. the 1st Armored at Fort
Hood, Tex, and the 5th Infan-
try at Fort Carson, Colo, were
formed on the new concept.
The plan scraps the five
l,350-man battle groups which
became the nucleus of divisions
in the last reorganization seven
years ago. In their place will
be battalions of 750 and $50
men each, with anywhere from
six to is of them forming a

on the party, G.. o. P. liberals
will not like that. But some
of them conceded privately
there isn't much they can do
about 1t.
Presumably the dinner, pres
emily scheduled for February
%, will supplant the customary
June congressional fund-rais-
ing rally at which former Pres
ident Eisenhower has been the
principal attraction in recent
years.
Retires From Post
Senator Goldwater has re-
tired from the post he held for
four years, chairman of the
Republican Senatorial Cam
paign Committee. He was sue
ceeded by Senator Morton of
Kentucky, former party ma
tional chairman.
In agreeing to permit him
self to be lauded publicly for
the contributions he has made
toward getting Republican
Senators elected, Senator
Goldwater laid down some
stipulations.
The first is that there
mustn't be anything said about
him as a potential candidate
for the 1864 @. o. P. presiden-
tial nomination. 1t will be all
right, however, to remind the
faithful that there is in the
offing his likely candidacy for
reelection in Arizona next
year.
AS matters stand, Senator
Goldwater has asked those who
want to boost him for the pres
idential nomination to give
him a year to think about il
before he makes any decision.
Governors TO Be Asked
Primarily the dinner is
planned for members of the
Senate and House. But Sen
ator Goldwater has stipulated
that Republican Governors also
must be invited, but not neces-
sarily urged, to attend.
The general feeling is that
Gen. Eisenhower won't want to
interrupt his winter vacation
in Palm Desert, Calf, to par
ticipate.
Whether New York Gov. Nell
son A. Rockefeller would feel
called upon to join in the fes-
tivities remained problematical.
Gov. Rockefeller, regarded as
a leading possibility for the
1864 G. o. P. presidential nomi-
