The lymph gland was removed
from Rayburn's right groin during
Thursday's surgery.
A hospital bulletin said "the bi
opsy revealed a metastiatic ma

that the malignancy has spread

Uncle Sam
Income Tax
WASHINGTON (AP) L'ncle
Sam today unveiled the new, sim
plified, two-page form 1U40 to be
used in paying the tax on this
year's individual incomes.
It presents the best effort of the
Internal Revenue Service to use
plain Knglish instead of legalistic
gobbledcgook. and it eliminates
one tax form entirely the old
1040W.
The new form is printed on bet
ter paper in bigger type. It will
arrive in December in a revised
1961 instruction book.
Here is an example of the dif
ference :
The first question on the 1961
form will say simply: "1. Wages,
Average Age Low
In Douglas Count
Douglas County's population is
of a more youthful nature than
the rest of the state Miss Marian
Martin of the state Board of Health
noted Thursday.
Speaking at a meeting of the
County lnter-Ageney Council in the
courthouse, Miss Martin said the
median age in the county was 27.1
years compared to an over all
state median age of 30.8 years.
Consequently, Miss Martin said,
the dominant population trend here
is toward more marriages, more
young children and less older peo
ple. In her discussion of population
trends in the county, she antici
pated that county population would
jump from 68,500 in 1900 to 85,000
in 1970.
The non-white population in the
county also is considerably less
than the over all state figure, she
said. Less than a half of 1 per
cent is non-white compared to the
state figure of 2 110 per cent.
Mrs. Bernice Smith of the county
health office presided over the
meeting.

salaries, tips, etc., and excess of
allowances over business ex
penses," On the form for 1SXW the same
line read:
"1. Knter all wages, salaries,
bonuses, commissions, tips, and
other compensation before payroll
deductions upcluding any excess
of expense account or similar al
lowance paid by your employer
over your ordinary and necessary
business expenses. See instruc
tions, pp. 5 6.)"
IRS Commissioner Mortimer M.
Caplin, who promised Congress
when he took office that he'd try
to make the annual struggle with
tax forms easier on taxpayers,
told a news conference:
"As long as the tax form has
to mirror the tax laws, we cannot
have complete simplification. But
we think the great bulk of people
can be better served with this
new basic two-page form."
The new 1040 is for taxpayers
whose income came from salaries
and wages and who did not re
ceive more than $200 of dividends
and interest.
The old form 1040A, the punch
card form, continues to be avail
able for those with less than $10,.
000 total income. It has been only
slightly revised.
Taxpayers who have more than
$200 of income from dividends, or
interest or who have income from
farming, partnerships, businesses,
annuities or capital gains must
use additional "schedules," at
taching them to the new 1040.
One feature of the new form
gives Caplin particular, pride, he
indicated; the entire tax compu
tation has been brought to the
fjrst page of the return, eliminat
ing the need for taxpayers to flip
pages back and forth while carry
ing numbers in their heads.
Eliminated also is the question
whether you owed any federal tax
for previous years. "We have that
information," Caplin said.
