Estimated Tax Deadline Near The Eugene office of th tv. partment of Internal Revenue is humming with businc iho Jan. 15 deadline draws near for uuB ana paying estimated tax. Farmers, business and profes sional people, investors, land lords, and certain wage earners whose 1946 tax was not sub stantially paid up by withhold ing, are waiting in line for pro fessional help from deputy col lectors in the office. Fred Huber. denutv cnlipMnr ir, charge of the office, emphasized Saturday that Jan. 15 is NOT a tax date for any wage earner who had tax withheld, provided he did not have more than $100 of other income and his wages did not ex ceed $5000 plus $500 for each ex emption except his own. Final 1946 income tax returns are due by March 15 frcm ALL taxpayers, Huber said, but if they are filed by Jan. 15 they will serve as both return and estimate for 1946. Detailed solutions of individual tax problems may be obtained from the local office located on the second floor of the new Post Office building.

PACIFIC 1st FEDERAL 10th and WUlamette Eugenes Oregon YA Appraiser Policy Called Safeguard In action aimed at giving vet erans increased protection against buying of over-priced real estate, the Veterans Administration has taken over selection of the ap praiser for each GI loan, at the same time dropping its former policy of permitting lending agencies to pick any appraiser from the VA-approved panel. Frank Sias, VA representative here, explained that this tighten' ing of GI loan policy against real estate inflation means that the VA now designates by name the appraiser for each piece of prop erty considered for purchase by a veteran. Explanatory letters have been sent to 300 lending institutions and to 280 approved appraisers Two University of Oreeon m-e- hi Oregon.

String Quartet Makes Debut By BARBARA HEARTFIELD The University String Quartet got off to a splendid start with its first Eugene concert Sunday after noon in the School of Music audi torium. George Boughton and Mary Kapp Allton, violinists, Marv Coleman, vlnllst. and Mil- ton Dieterich, cellist, performed Beethoven's Quartet Op. 18, No. 2, and Haydn's "Lark" Quartet Op. 64, No. 5, with sincerity and polish. The two quartets, composed only 10 years apart, make an in terestingly balanced program, and the new University group gave a thoroughly comprehending per formance of both works. Each player made the audience feel the importance of his instrument's part as it fitted into the whole pattern; their ensemble was ex. cellcnt throughout. In fact, they thought so completely as a unit that occasionally the meaning of individual lines was lost. . During the development section of the Beethoven Allegro the theme movement became buried in a mass of notes; so exact was the balance in the beginning of the Beethoven Adagio that the violin and cello solo lines did not stand out as such. In some places in the Beethoven, also, the quar tet played with less assurance than their ability warranted. As the program progressed, however, any such weaknesses disappeared. The Haydn Adagio Cantabile movement, featuring singing solo tones, was perhaps the most beautifully played of all. Thoughout the concert tone was consistently rich and playing spirited. Noticeable also was the strong rhythmic urge pulling through slow and fast movements alike. Now that they have worked out the initial problems of playing to gether, it should not be too diffi cult for the University String Quartet to build up a larger, varied repertoire. There is a definite place in Eugene for a chamber music group of their high calibre. Car Thief Thwarted A would-be ear thief was stopped early Sunday morning when he attempted to take a car from the garage at the home of Mrs. Tom Williams, 1689 Olive St. Mrs. Williams told city police that the thief backed the car into the garage door and was unable to move it. !

Taft Ss Associates of Portland who have been serv ing the Hard of Hearing since 1934. mating rntal housing construe' tion is being pursued by the fed eral agencies concerned, he de clared. In this area, between 500 and 600 units renting for not more than $50 monthly are needed, he said, and there is a market for another 100 to- rent at from $50 to $75 a month. Fifty or more units rent ing for over $75 a month could also be absorbed immediately. Incentives Told Regulations have been relaxed so that almost any type of rental property is insurable under FHA loans, Bayles continued, and re' strictions on commercial building will be retained in some form for several months. Ammortization provisions have been eased to re duce the annual payments on the principal of loans. Bayles said the housing program is now aimed for the general pub' lie as well as for veterans but that the best thing the government can do for ex-G.I. s is to provide plea ty of low-rental dwelling units. The permit system will be con' tinued and regulations giving vet erans first chance at new housing are still in force, the expediter added, although the priorities sys tem has been abandoned. No ceiling price is set on new homes financed under. FHA. Pros pective buildersydo not need to submit plans in order to obtain permits but must comply with measures limiting the square foot age of floor space and must give a general explanation of the type of construction planned. Uphill Fight Much of the area's present hous ing is substandard and, although 6500 new units would ease the congestion in auto courts, govern ment projects and trailer camps, even this number would not pre vent obsolesence from cheating citizen's of homes, Bayles said.
