2 See. I Capital Journal, Salem, Ore., Thurs., Jan. 13, 1355! Five Stand-Pat Demos On House Rules Group WASHINGTON UH Five Dem ocrats regarded as likely to go along most of the time with the wishes of party leaders in the House were nominated Thursday to serve on the legislation-guiding Rules Committee. The recommendations by the Democratic Committee on Com mittees are subject to approval by the House a formality since i what procedures. of Southern democrats and Repub licans on the House Rules Com mittee sometimes bottled u? bills which the leadership backed. Except in unusual circum stances, all bills cleared by the legislative committee must go through the rules group, which determines when they shall be de bated and, to some extent, under the Democrats are in the major ity. During the Roosevelt and Tru man administrations, a coalition Nurses Gather For Workshop Nurses from throughout Ore gon gathered here Thursday for a legislative workshop of the Ore goa State Nurses Association which is being held in the Marion Hotel Thursday afternoon and Friday. Featured on the Thursday ifternoon program are a talk by Henrietta Doltz, president of the OSNA on "Why a Long Range Program for OSNA?": a review of present Oregon Nurse Practice acts; a discussion of the board of Nurse Examiners and a question lid answer period dealing with tie state's medical practice act.

No Action of Bend On Control of Milk BEND tfl There was much talk, but no action, on milk control as the 61st annual Oregon Dairy men's Assn. meeting opened here Wednesday. Committee meetings began al most at once, and there appeared little chance that the delegates will agree this year on what policy to adopt toward milk control. State milk control was killed at the polls last November. There was some lobby talk here lor new, state milk control sys tern, stopping- short of retail con- trols, but other delegates favored a federal irnilk, pool, while still others urged . continuation of the free market. 4 Builders Pay For 'Windfalls' WASHINGTON tfl -Housing of ficials have reported tentative set tlement to recover more than one million dollars from four builders who allegedly piled up "windfall profits" i n government-insured housing projects. The agreemnts, reported to the House Appropriations Committee last Monday, apparently marxea the first success in a drive to get back possibly many millions of dol lars. The committee Thursday dis closed the settlement reports which gave no hint as to identity of the four builders or where the projects are located. Sen. Capehart (R-Ind) has esti mated that builders made 500 mil lion to one billion dollars of ex cessive profits by getting govern ment insured mortgages for amounts larger than the cost of rental housing projects and pocket ing the difference. Probe Congress Of Civil Rights WASHINGTON tfl A convicted former Washington state Commu nist told a Subversive Activities Control Board hearing Thursday of attending two Communist Par ty meetings at which the Civil Rights Congress and its activities were discussed. The witness, Mrs. Barbara Har tle. said also that a picket line sponsored by the Civil Rights Con gress in October 1948 to picket Al Canwell, then chairman of the Washington Legislature's House Un-American Activities Committee, had been organized by the Com munist Party. "The Civil Rights Congress spon sored the picket line. The Commu nist Party organized it,'1 she told board member David J. Coddaire.

Correction in Income Tax Return Cited A more liberal interpretation of the retirement income credit provisions of the Internal Reve nue Code of 1954 than is reflect ed in the individual income tax return now being distributed was announced today by Commission er of Internal Revenue T. Cole man Andrews. Accordingly, Schedule K of Form 1049, the Individual In come Tax Return for 1954, will not produce the correct retire ment income credit for certain taxpayers. Individuals affected are those with actual retirement income of less than $1,200, who also receive excluded annuity or pension in come and, in the case of individ-; uals less than 73 years of age, compensation for personal serv ices in excess of $900. It is estimated that the change will benefit approximately 100, 000 taxpayers currently filing their income tax returns for 1954 : by increasing their retirement in come credit I Any taxpayer who has retire-; ment income of less than $1,200 j (shown on line 1, Schedule K) ! should complete Schedule K as follows: (1) Although line 2 of the schedule states "Enter here amount shown in line 1 or $1,200 whichever is lesser," the taxpay er should enter $1,200 in line 2 in all cases. (2) Although line 5 states "Bal ance (line 2 minus line 4)," the taxpayer should enter such bal-j ance or the amount shown in line : 1, whichever is the lesser." 1 Directors of Internal Revenue 1 have been advised to assist tax payers in making the correct computation of the retirement in come credits. Instructions have also been issued to correct those returns that are found to have been filed in error. SALEM'S LOWEST PRICES!
