MALCOLM EPLEY Managing Editor 1 Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY INTEREST in industrial development has been sharply stimulated here in the past few weeks. There has occurred a growing realization of , the size of the war-time tim ber cut, which is approximat ing 800 million feet annually in the immediate Klamath area and perhaps a billion feet L ' ' in lnat area p suriouna- V A, in8 fr'Se in Lake county and Vir' northern California. ' jf Recent purchase by the vf? ... m:.t I . weyernaeuser iimoer company J I " H of a huge stand of timber 1 y from the Long Bell people Epley seems to have focussed atten tion, for some reason, upon the future problem of finding timber for the mills of the Klamath country. This transaction demonstrated Weyerhaeuser's desire to assure a long-time supply of timber for its great plant here.- The fact there has been some cutting for other plants in this timber tract has aroused speculation as to the future of such operations. The Weyerhaeuser purchase does not change the over-all picture of timber resources here. It is the same timber, , in different hands. It does mean, probably, that most of the great stand of timber in the Yamsay tract will be i milled in Klamath Falls. Such was the interpretation made at the time of the an nouncement of the Weyerhaeuser purchase. So long as the war-time demand for lumber continues at the present high pressure, the gen eral character of the lumber industry here prob ably will remain unchanged; there won't be time for changes. But in the future lies a pos sibility of important changes, refinements and even expansions, designed to make greater use of the resources of this area. " Many of these things are still in experimental stages, and some of them are. just ideas being turned over. in men's minds. But progresses being made hi the laboratories, and even in practical operations, that indicates what may happen here when we go definitely into the business of making the timber resources we have go farther. Re-manufacturing processes, such as box mak ing and moulding manufacture, already started here, give but a hint of the progress that seems certain to be made : in more . intensive use ot our wood resources. Much that is now waste probably will be used eventually. Timber thai now is passed by will be picked' up for pro cessing in . the., future, program.. ., -. . r These are ideas that form a basis for faith in the Klamath country and its timber re sources. They justify the mounting local inter est in industrial development that will "make full use of those resources. News Behind the Nevs By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, -Jan. 14 It is a good thing thedemocratic, senators closed the door for their initial- caucus. Only by manipulating a temporary inside, truce, did they avoid exposing the shat tered condition of their senate majority. It was indeed the hated iso lationists who came through and saved the bruised and bat- -J tered head of Alben Barkley as senate leader. Barkley would have been defeated for reelection, and the party plunged into a new scramble for control, had not the most outspoken democratic critics of Mr. Roosevelt's foreign policy, Senators Burton Wheeler, of Montana, and the two Clarks, of Idaho and Missouri, undertaken leadership to reelect him. Tennessee's Senator McKellar had offered a resolution providing that the caucus, instead of Barkley, fill two vacancies on the steering com mittee, a body which, decides the order in which legislation is to be taken up. Barkley took the position this would be an insult to his leadership and he would have to resign. It was then Wheeler arose. He said that while he had fought Barkley over the Roosevelt foreign policy from 1938 until , the war, the Kentucky Roosevelt leader had always been fair. Wheeler plainly told his colleagues that j WW Paul Mallon SIDE GLANCES if they fought the leadership issue out now, neither side would gain. The two Clarks chimed in their assent, and the resolution Was defeated by a margin of only 34 to 20. The southern democrats were out to get Barkley, because of his recent enthusiasm for the anti-poll tax bill. They were able to stop him with his new-found isolationist support, however, on only one point. They kicked out the New Dealer (Senator Wallgren, of Washington) whom he had named as secretary of the caucus and installed an anti New -Dealer, Senator Francis Maloney, of Con necticut. ' . . The incident clearly showed Barkley will not be able to handle the majority on most issues during the coming session. Blocs (farm, south ern, isolationist) are likely to do the leaning. Their Goose Cooked THE democratic conference sounded like a republican convention as far as criticism of the administration . was concerned. Texas' Tom Connally. said at one point to Barkley: "You are taking the position that you are bigger than the caucus when you are the creature of the caucus. That is the trouble with these bureaucrats downtown. They are created by congress and the people and - then they think they are bigger than the , people who created them." Many democratic senators from the north and west made speeches plainly saying that they thought their goose was cooked or cooking for reelection in 1944, unless changes are made. All wanted a change in everything except the name of the leader, and this desire will dominate the upper house from now on. Lameducks Remembered k 4R. ROOSEVELT'S initial" appointments took IVl care of most of the lameducks, but it isJ not clear vet whether hey took care of the s j-sS problems at hand. " Judge Rutledge will wsmake the New Deal court majority- seven !to two, but it is not known whether he will join the Frankfurter bloc or New ... Dealers of the Black bloc. Per haps it makes ' little difference because the nnlv : margin - between Sygthe two is that Black wants to go further 6.i o. Ik and faster 01311 Frank- ALBEN BARKLEY, iuner. His Head Saved ' Ed Flynn . . is . not very popular even with Jfew. Deal democrats, -who privately expressed distaste for his choice as ambassador to Australia. . But, after -the republicans have' a little fun with him, the democrats will vote for him and no doubt confirm him. ' -. . " As for Prentiss Brown in Henderson's place, the defeated Michigan senator is more popular in Washington . than apparently even in his home state. Around the senate, he is regarded as much less of a New Dealer than Henderson and a high-class citizen. Incidentally, although he is. to be in charge of housing, he has been unable to find an apart ment for his family. The manager at his form er apartment house promised to let him return,' but that manager was' drafted and the hew one refuses to honor' the agreement. Brown, is usually diplomatic in his choice of words, will make fewer speeches than Hend erson, and more palatable ones. Military Secret . YOU have heard little or no" detailed comment on the amazing $109,060,000,000 budget. Not much is possible except .the obvious sug gestions concerning the unprecedented amount. Particularized ways in which the money is to be spent could not be disclosed by the presi dent, because they are military' secrets. No one, therefore, can surmise how wisely the money is to be spent or for what. Indeed, it is impossible to analyze non-war savings, as a reader of the message cannot know how much government activity has been trans ferred to the war side of the books. Budgets have lost their original purpose in recent years. They were devised as a method of effecting economies, but when allocations are made in grouped round numbers, they serve more effectively as good war propaganda than as an indication of plans. . com, iwitm twvicf. i-c. t. fcCuro. q t. pat, oft: -g "Why ure yon worrying nbout clollics'nilioiiinu?

This credit is known as person al exemption, and is shown on line 21 of the return Form 1040. The amount of the personal ex emption also varies depending upon the period during which the taxpayer occupied the partic ular exemption status. The personal exemption for a" single person is $500 for ' the year; for a married person liv ing with husband or wife, $1200; and for a "head, of family," $1200. (Personal exemption as head of .a family has no effect on liability to file a return.) For federal income tax purposes, widows, widowers, divorcees, and married persons separated by mutual consent, as well as persons who have never been married, are classed as single persons. - ' - A head of family is defined as "an individual who actually sup ports and maintains in one house hold one or more individuals who are closely connected with him by blood relationship, rela tionship by marriage or by adop tion, and whose right to exercise family control and provide for these dependent individuals is based upon some moral or legal obligation." A single person, or a married person not living with husband or wife, may, therefore, enjoy a head of family exemp tion under certain conditions.

' y From the Klamath Republican January 8, 1903 The town board met Monday, allowed bills, sranted three saloon licenses, and ordered con-1 struction of 500 feet of new sidewalk in the eastern part of I town. I Last Saturday Charles Galar-: neau was thrown violently from his wagon when a wheel drop ped -into one of the holes in the road a few rods south of the flour mill. . Grading of the Klamath lake railroad has been completed 18 miles out of Laird's. Return (which is permitted if the gross income for the yeur is $3000 or less and derived solely from earnings from employment andor from dividends, interest, and annuities) obtain personal exemption based on their status as of July 1 of the year. Thus, a taxpayer married and living witn husband or wife on July 1 is entitled to $1200 personal ex emption on Form 1040A; if he were a widower on July 1, his exemption would be $500, irre spective of the date on which he became a widower. The amount of the exemption is not deduct ible from the income but is re flected in the amount of tax shown in the table on the re verse side of the form. Taxpayers using return Form 1040 obtain personal exemption proportionate with the number of months during which the par ticular status is held. Thus, lor a person who married on July 1 (who was not a head of tamily prior to his marriage), the per sonal exemption would be $850 ($250 for the six months as a single-man, plus $600 for the six months as a married man.) In this examplo it is assumed that the wife has no income. Married persons may, how ever, mo joint returns, even though one has no income, and by filing a joint return a coup! married during the year may ob tain an exe: lption amounting to tho exemption to which they would bo entitled for the period of married status, plus the amount of their individual ex emptions prior to their marriage. In the example given the total exemption in a join return would be $1100 ($250 for each spouse for six months plus $600 for six months married status.) If a husband and wife living together both have income and file separate returns on Form 1040, the personal exemption ap plicable to a, married person may be taken in the return of cither or divided between them in any way as they may agree, but the total personal exemption taken in the two separate returns may not exceed $1200. From the Klamath News January 14, 1933 Representative Henry Semon met with county officials today in a conference on a proposed salary cut. Police Chief Guy Merrill to day ordered a clean-up of gambling here. The Klamath Pelican basket ball team defeated Bend, 37 to 21, last night at Bend.
