Education Laws in Various States Have Similar Provisions By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist Laws covering education vary somewhat from state to state but they have similar provisions. Parents should have sufficient knowledge of them so they will understand their rights and responsibili ties. V School attendance is com 'pulsory and parents have a choice of financing a private 'education or using the public schools. In either case, the public schools are available for a ;e o m plete program through high school graduation. The parents have the responsi bility to keep their children in attendance during the re quired ages. Penalties gen erally are imposed for those who do not obey thew lt. Various aspects nt each school are covered by state laws which set certain mini mum standards. The local school board very often pro vide educational programs which surpass these basic re quirements. The school board in a community which has an interest in quality education and is willing to support such a program usually will go well beyond the minimum re quired by the state. Law Varies Widely Naturally, there are many variations in the different states as well as in the com munities within a state. The laws generally provide mini mum salaries, tenure, and re tirement for employees. New buildings and major renova tions must be approved by the state. The state also rec ommends and acts as a con sultant in all areas of educa tion. A copy of the law is probably available in the school office or local library. The local school board rep resents you. Special requests may be directed to the school board but you should first go to the school adminisiralion. Most requests are handled by the principal or superintend ent within establish policies. Medford RIBUNE - SECTION B MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 9, 1963 PAGES 1 to 10 But transportation is organ ized on a mileage basis. It often varies with grade level. In some communities excep tions are made for handicap ped children or those who have dangerous streets to cross. If you have any ques tions concerning transporta tion, ask to see a copy of the school policy. In unusual cir cumstances you might make a special request to the school board. Provisions for Handicapped Many children have partic ular handicaps, interests, and needs. If the local school can not cope with these, provi sions may sometimes be made to obtain the necessary pro gram from outside the local system. In many cases, the state requires the local school board to pay the costs. This will usually include transpor tation.

NT Your Money's Worth By SYLVIA PORTER Copyright, Hall Syndicats, Inc. BUSINESS GIFTS V j (This is the fifth In a series of nine articles.) The era of giving and deducting substantial business gifts, such as mink coats, cars, refrigerators, etc., has passed into history. Beginning this year, deductions for business gifts to In dividuals generally will be limited to $25 a donee each year, i This covers business gifts which you make to your customers, your business associates, your clients, your employees (except ! that the employee limit is $100 for gifts recognizing length of service or safety achievements) and any other for whom you could properly deduct business gifts. This will not prevent you from making gifts as large as you wish, hut it limits your income tax deduction to no more j than $25 for each person to whom you make business gifts j during the year. , The $25 limit i.s figured by what the gift costs you, not i what it's worth to the person to whom you give it. You can omit from your cost any "incidental'' charges -such as the customary engraving on jewelry, or packaging, insurance, mailing or other delivery. For instance, if you pay $25 for the gift, another dollar for engraving and another dollar for packaging and mailing, you will be able to deduct the entire $27 by treating $25 as the business gift and the other $2 as otherwise deductible expenses. But a cost will not be considered "incidental" if It adds substantial value to the gift. Thus, what you pay for customary gift wrapping may ba excluded from the gift as an incidental cost. But suppose you buy $20 worth of fruit as a gift and have It packaged in a $20 basket for delivery. The Treasury will most probably consider the packaging no longer incidental and treat the combined fruit and basket as a $40 gift for which you can take only a $25 deduction, with no deduction for the other $15. Here are several special reminders about the new busi ness gift rules. 1-You can make more than one gift to a person In a year but the total amount you can deduct for that one person's j gifts can't exceed $25. 2-You can t get around the $25 limit per person by mak ing your gift In the person's husband or wife or child. If you want to give your customer a $250 refrigerator as a business gift, say, you can't beat the $25 limit on your de duction by giving the refrigerator to his wife instead of directly to him. Bui if your customer's wife is actually in partnership with him in his business, you can make n gift to either one or both and you will get a separate $25 deduc tion for each one, for a total of $50. 3 If you have business conneclions who own and operate other businesses as corporations, you can't get around the new $25 a year limit on gifts to individuals by making your gift to their corporations. To illustrate, if you give a $3,000 car as a gift to your business customer's corporation for eventual personal use by your customer himself, your de duction is limited to $25 even though your gift is made in form In a corporation rather than an individual. 4-Some gifts may fit the descriptions nf both business en tertainment and business gifLs. Depending on the particular! situation, the new rules may at times give you n better lax ' break by treating the gift one way rather lhan the other. As an example, when you give theatre tickets to a cus- ' iomer whom you don't accompany to the theatre, the Treas ury gives you the choice of treating the tickets a a business gift or entertaniment. While you may be unable to meet the tests for deducting the tickets as entertainment, you easily may show that they are deductible business gifts. So you would choose to treat them as business gifts, al- 1 though that would limit your deduction to $25. 1 When you make a business gift to a individual of pack- , aged food or beverages for consumption at a later time, you have no choice about treating this as an entertainment or a ; business gift. The Treasury says ynu must treat, this as a business gift, which automatically clamps on the $25 deduc tion limil per person.
