PfYour .',t,y Lik WHAT THE TAX BILL MEANS r HjaMlTW If you are an employe moving to a new job location or a person deducting child care expenses, the 19(53 tax bill would give you now tax advantages. Below you'll read what you can do this year to make sure you cash in on these breaks if they become law. The Treasury has a stuffy rule today for emplovcs who spend money moving from one job location to another, if the employe is required by his present employer to move to a new location for the employer's benefit, the money the employer pays to re imburse him for his moving expenses is not counted as income to the employe. But if the employe moves to a new location for his own convenience or for a new employer, the money the em ployer pays to reimburse him for his moving expenses is counted as income to the employe. What's more, the employe cannot deduct his moving expenses. The Ilnusc-passed lax bill contains a provision which would simplify the whole matter. Beginning in 1!)M, an employe could deduct his reasonable moving expenses involved in starting work al a now job location. The dnluction would lie allowed in addition lo Hie stand aid deduction. It would lie allowed whether lite move was for the convenience of the employer or the employe and whether It was fur a present or a new employer. If the em ployer reimbursed lite employe (or the moving expenses, the net effort would he no tax on the rrinihiirsetnenl. If the employe's actual moving rvpenses exceed the reimburse ment, the employe could deduct the excess. t juu iv ,iu iiiijuuM- expecting to cnange your cm location soon, nere are llic key guides. If employer's convenience and are inu)i-i mi juur moving expenses, tax viewpoint whether you move in 1!K or in I'M. But if you are moving lo work for a new emnlover or for your present employer for your own convenience or without re imbursement of your moving expenses, your best bet from a tax viewpoint is to hold off your move until' 14. If you can do this, you will give yourself a chance to deduct your moving expenses if the HK',3 bill becomes law. If you move in l'Jta, vou cannot possibly deduct your moving expenses under the Treasury's present rules.

This rule would be expanded in three ways. (1) The expenses would be made deductible for children under 13 instead of 12 as at present. (2) Certain persons entitled to the child care deduction could deduct up to $!K) of actual expenses instead ot only SHOO as at present. This would apply if the taxpayer has two or more children or physically or mentally incapacitated dependents. (3) The rule would be liberalized for a married man whose wife is living during the taxable year. Today, he cannot deduct costs of child care, but under the bill, he would be eligible (or the deduction (subject lo various limitations) if his wife is in capacitated or institutionalized for a period of at least 90 con secutive days (or less if it ends with her death).

Cheek now whether you will he in a position lo save on taxei through the new rules. The extension of the child care expense deduction to a married man whose wifo is incapacitated is of special importance. All who will qualify should prepare themselves now to take maximum advantage of the liberalized provisions starting in 1964 if the bill becomes law.

Children Ordered Into Schools By AL KUETTNER United Press International Authorities in Plaquemine, La., scene of recent racial disturb ances, have gone back to an old fashioned program. They will require school children to go to school. They hope this approach will put a final stop to demonstra tions that have been tear gassed three times in one week and to a boycott of three schools by ap proximately 1,300 Negro pupils. Truant officers will start rid ing herd on absentee pupils to day and any who are not back Prices Being Paid For Homes Studied By Census WASHINGTON (UPI) - The Census Bureau is working on a new study which is expected to provide more up-to-date intor mation on the new kinds of homes that are being sold and the prices the customers are paying. The bureau has been on the project since January. The feel ing is that it will be at least four years before enough exper. ience is gained to draw really meaningful conclusions. In the meantime the bureau has been releasing every month the data it has been able to gather. Some of it is interesting The study concentrates on the sales of new one family dwell ings. It found during the first six months of this year that there was no definite trend in the number of sales. Line Inconsistent The line seemed to jump all over the chart up one month, down the next. It did show up strong during the spring months good house hunting weather but this is hardly a revela tion. The statistics (hat got the ex perts a bit excited dealt with the median selling prices of homes during this period. The average home sold in January at $17,000. For some reason, this figure kept creeping up ward until by June the aver age was $18,300. But in another part of the study there was much less change in the median price. Throughout the first half of the year the median offering price was higher than the aver age paid. What does this mean? It s still anybody s guess be cause the study is so new. How ever, the variance suggests that in a lot of instances, the price Money's Wnrth By SYLVIA PORTER Copyright, Hall Syndicate, Inc.

An accept able excuse in Iberville Parish in these harvest days would be sugar cane cutting and pecan picking. Parents of school truants 15 years of age and younger could be fined or jailed under the Louisiana law. The decision to firmly enforce the law came after a court in junction was handed down en joining the Congress of Racial Equality from participating in demonstrations in the p a r i s h (county). Bureau showing on the sign in front of the model home was only the "asking" price. Some home buyers evidently were able to get the builder to come down. Would Be Closer If this weren't the case, the average asking price and the median selling price would be closer together. The difference in some months was as much as $1,400. At any rate, the new study is arousing considerable interest in the housing industry. One of the improtant reasons is that in the past none of the government or industry statistical reports con centrated on sales. The study eventually will try to determine the price ranges of the homes that are selling, and the prices of those that are pilling up because the custom ers aren't interested. Such data will be extremely valuable to both industry and government. It will help home builders and suppliers better plan their programs in the months ahead. The information also will aid the government in determining where its mortgage credit policies should be revised to better fit the market need. Poor Early Training Causes Slow Readers SALEM, Ore.

MKUFUKD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORO, OREGON The local CORE organization promptly denied it was running the show a demand for deseg regated schools and reinstate ment of 34 Negroes who led a recent demonstration. Public officials were some what suspicious that Negro youngsters were using the racial campaign to work off some youthful enthusiasm and skip school. Parental fear also may have contributed to the large scale boycott. One indication that there was less than 100 per cent enthusiasm for the over-all campaign was Higher Shipments CLEVELAND, Ohio (UPI) - Booming auto sales and sur prising strength in the con struction market may result in steel shipments being higher than expected this month, Steel magazine said today. The national weekly said some steelmakers who original ly figured October shipments would be 10 per cent higher than September's are now pre dicting a IS per cent gain. They are voicing optimism because: Gone are the days when every homemaker was a weather -watcher on washdays!

He said they will be told that the penalty for violating the order is a year in jail, a $1,000 fine or both. Ronnie Moore, CORE field secretary for Louisiana, said he will appeal the injunction. The use of school children in racial demonstrations conducted during school hours is a new twist in the integration cam paign. It was used extensively the first time last May in Birm ingham, Ala. The Rev. James Bevel, a Ne gro clergyman from Mississippi who is now back in Birmingham helping plan possible new dem onstrations there, exhorted school youngsters to skip classes to join the street campaign in Birmingham. A few children as young as 10 years of age landed in the lockup. When it came time to nego tiate a truce in the Birmingham affair, the issue of arrested school children was a major factor. Most of them finally were released without charge. The Plaquemine authorities were attempting a fast move to enforce school attendance laws, thus leaving the racial campaign there up to the grownups, or re stricting it to non-school hours. rcDttd.

She should marry Peter. Gloria S. I like him, but I don't love him. e Mr. H. S. As Gloria's fath er, I want to steer her right. A fine fellow is eager to marry her and, while she hasn't said yes, she hasn't said no either. What worries her, she says, is she doesn't love him. But when I ask her what "love" means to her, she says she's not sure. Gloria S. I'm 23 and I like Pete best of all the boys I've met. But I can't say I'm in love with him and, according to what I've read and heard, that's an essential for marriage. He's pleasant company, we agree on most matters, but when he em braces me I don't see those lights flashing!

While physical magnetism is important in marriage, you don't need mesmerism. Attrac tiveness and cleanliness will do. As to love, The Council is sure it's what a good marriage achieves after a few anniver saries rather then what it starts out with. Fast heartbeats, diz ziness, chills and fever are more matters of biology and chemis try than of true love which is built mainly from character. Robert W. Kent, a Boston law yer with much experience in divorce cases, states in his book, "How to Choose A Husband," that it's most important to like the man you marry than to "love" him. He warns against the over romantic approach to marriage, and urges the eyes wide open view. People who like each other can work well together toward building the strong, warm, purposeful life in which a solid core of love forms quietly, more solid than the Hollywood fireworks and lust and passion which are mislabel ed as love. as well!
