HOW TO SAVE ON TAXES
The New 1962 Tax Form
When you begin to (ill out your individual income tax
Form 1040 for 1962, you'll nolice it is the now familiar one
sheet, two-page return. But as was the case last year, millions
of you again will find that you must fill out much more
than the basic two-page form.
You should have this information in mind now so you
can get the extra forms you will need in plenty of time to
study them carefully, fill them out properly and make sure
you pay whst you owe, but not one cent more than you
owe, on your 1862 income.
If you received dividends, interest, pensions, rent or other
types of income, you will have to fill out and attach to
the two-page Form 1040 a separate two-page Schedule B,
entitled "Supplemental Schedule of Income and Credits".
Of course, if you sold stocks, bonds or other property in
1962, you will, as in past years, have to complete and at
tach Schedule D.
If you had income from a business or profession, you
will have to complete Schedule C, and farmers are expected
to fill out a Schedule F.
If you revived "sick pay" from your employer while
' home because of illness during 1962, the Treasury would
like Form 2106 from you.
If you paid and deducted the medical expense of a
parent, the Treasury would expect you to fill out Form 2948.
If you drove a car on business or incurred travel or enter
tainment expenses, Form 2106 is waiting for you.
If you owned shares of a mutual fund which didn't dis
tribute its long-term capital gains, you probably will be in
volved with Form 2439.
If you are a widow or widower claiming a child care
deduction, you would fill out Form 2441.
If you sold your old home at a profit and brought a new
one, the schedule for you is Form 2119.
For millions of us, the form hardly will be the one
sheet, two-page return which it is claimed to be. Never
theless, the 1962 form has cleared up an important am
biguity which existed in last year's 1961 form. This in
volves Lint 5. covering dividends, interest, rents, royal
ties, pensions, etc.
On last year's return, it you had $200 or less of interest
and dividends and no other kind of income to report on this
line, you did not have to give details of your interest and
dividends on separate Schedule B. This was confusing be
cause it left up in the air the question of how and where
you should compute the S50 dividend exclusion and the 4
per cent dividend received credit.
Now line 5 or Form 1040 for 1962 has three separate
subdivisions: 5a-dividends; 5b-interest; 5c-rents. royalties,
pensions, etc. You must supply the details in Schedule B
(or on a separate list if you had only interest income and
wages) regardless of the amount in each category. This re
quired use of Schedule B will automatically eliminate the
confusion which bothered many of you in handling dividends
properly on your return for 1961.
The simple card Form 1040A still is available lo you
if your gross income was less than $10,000 last year, con
. sisted only of wages subject lo withholding and not more
than a total of $200 of interest, dividends (over the $50
dividend exclusion) and wages not subject to withholding.
But even if you qualitfy to use form 1040A, millions of
you probably will pay less tax by filling out the more de
tailed Form 1040.
You would pay less tax by using Form 1040 if your
actual deductions total more than 10 per cent of your in
come, or if you received exempt sick pay while home from
work because of illness or injury, or if you are entitled
to the dividends-received credit, or if you are entitled to
the retirement income credit, or if you are entitled to the
special tax break for head of a household or widow or
widower. If any of these its apply to you, do not use the
simple card form.
Next! Important changes on the 1962 form you must
know.

Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF
TTfALTER BRADY offers this addition to the Sherlock
" Holmes saga: The good Sherlock observed one A.M.
"Ah, Doctor Watson, still wearing your winter underwear,
eh? Incredible, mar
veled Dr. Watson. "How
did you deduce that?"
"Elementary, my dear
doctor," said Holmes. "In
the first place, you for
got to put on your pants."
(Incidentally, Mickey
Spillane, one of the John
ny - Come - Lately s who
put Sherlock Holmes into
the ranks of also-rans in
the paperback whodunit
sweepstakes, has now
been displaced as cham
pion himself by Ian Flem
ing. How the kids are
lapping up Fleming's action-jammed stories of Operator
James Bond!)
From the notebook of the immortal Will Ropers:
"In the early days of the Indian Territory, there were no such
thine as birth certificates. You bei.ij there was certificate
-.wuh."
"I had just enough white man's blood In me to make my hon
esty questionable."
"Onca you are a showman you are plum ruined for manual
labor again."
"Being a front-page hero is about the hortest-lived profession
en earth."
(Referring to Calvin Coolidge): "He was the first PremdeM
to discover that what the American people want most ( to be
left t.one."
(When he was named Honorary Mayor of Beverly Ifi'tsl : "I've
never seen a .Mayor who min't funny and when he puts on a
silk hat, he's even funnier. What this country needs ts more
ex-mayors."

Science Shrinks Piles
New Way Without Surgery
Stops Itch Relieves Pain
Eye Banks
Thousands of persons have
been telling their nearest; o
kin that in case of their death,
they , a n t
their bodies
or parts of
their bodies
to be used for
helping their
fellow men.
One of the
most wonder
f u I ways of
i doing this is
J i. .. - t,
Alvarez w nave
eyes quickly removed by an
expert and then used by eye
surgeons, who will tr replant
the cornea, or clear front
window of the eye, onto the
eye of a person who, perhaps
because of an ulceration or a
burning injury of his cornea,
has lost his vision. With a
new cornea, many a blind
man can see again.
I recently received a letter
from a woman whose husband
dropped dead a month ago.
Now she tells me she feels
happy because she has heard
that her dear husband s cor
neas were transplanted onto
ihe eyes of two blin people
who are now seeing well-thcy
are seeing through her hus
band's eyes. This makes her
grief somewhat less than it
was before.
Another woman writes
that she is happy because she
did what her husband asked
her to do just before he died;
he had for a long time suffer
ed from a severe frm of
Meniere's disease and so he
wanted to bequeath liis tem
poral bones on each side of
hia head to some expert ear
specialist. These bones con
tain the hearing apparatus.
The man was so kind and
helpful because we doctors
know too tittle about what
takes place in the ir.ncr ears
of people with Meniere's dis
ease. We are not sure what
causes the spells of great
dizziness and perhaps nausea
and vomiting. Hence it is that
we are glad when we can
examine the inner cars of a
patient who has just died of
perhaps a heart attack. No
one, so far as I know, ever
dies of Meniere's disease.
Many public - spirited peo
ple today are telling thicr
nearest of kin that when they
die they want their body
turned over lo the natomic
department of the ncaresi
medical school.
I say. "Blessings on all
these good people, and on the
kind relatives who carry out
their wirhes." The people
who want to leave their body
or some part of it for scien
tific purposes should not de
pend on expressing their dc
sires in their WILL. As we
all know, it sometimes takes
a year for a will to be pro
bated and passed upon by a
court, and by that, time it
would be much too late to use
any part of the body or a
transplant. What a person
must do is to leave instruc
tions with the person who at(
his death will attend to the
disposal of his body. In many
of these cases, the tissue, like
an eye or ear, must be taken
out immediately, and certain
ly before the mortician in
jects his embalming fluid.
In many places, I imagine
one can find in the classified
phone book the telephone
number of persons who are
interested in so-called tissue
banks. Oftentimes, the per
sons interested m and in
formed about an eye bank arc
the people of the Society for
the Prevention of Blindness.
Acuta Leukemia
Because many distressed
parents ask if there is any-;
thing new for the treatment
of a child with acute leuke
mia, I will note here that Drs.
J. Frcnback, W. W. Svuow,
W. G. Thurman, .and T. J.
Victti, of Houston, Atlanta
and St. Louis, have reported
the use of a new dri'j called
cyclophosphamide.
They gave the drug to 44
children with advanced leu
kemia, and produced what
they call "complete remis
sions" in 8 children, partial
remissions in 5, and some im
provement in 10 children. II
is sad that, as usually happens
when we doctors have to give
a very powerful drug, re
were a number of cases in
which the medicine caused so
many bad "side-effects" that
its use bad to be stop icd.
Unfortunately, also, the
drug is not a cure. The chu
drcu who had what is catted
a "complete remission" with
a return of the "blood pic
ture." or appearance of Die
white blood cells to normal,
lived on the average, 17
months.
Obviously, the new drug is
not the cure for acute leuke
mia, but I mention it here be
cause the litlle success ob
tained wilh it gives me hope
-hope that before long anoth
er drug will be found which
will cither greatly lengthen
the life of these children, or
will cure the disease.

Morse Would Let
France 60 Atone
New York-WPD-Scn. Wayne
Morse (D-Ore.) said Saturday
that if "France wants to go it
alone . . . then I think they
should bo told to go it alone.
Morse, a member of the
Senate Foreign Relations
committee, said that, the
United States is "giving more
money to France in foreign
aid than any other country in
the world."
He added: "We've given
nine and one-half billion dol
lars to France, and the sad
fact is that France is not as
suming her responsibilities
under the NDrtn ADanlic J
Treaty Organization." i
Morse said as far as his vole
on the Senate committee is
concerned, "we're going to
take a long look at how much
more we're going to give
France until she assumes her
fair share of the burden of
NATO."
"And," added Morse, "if
France wants to go it slone
and (French President Char
les De Gaulle seems to be
talking that way-lhen I think
they should be tatd to go it
alone."
