In suite of extremely high costs, materials shortages, and other problems, this building campaign has already been launched and has been proceeding steadily in midwinter. It includes both new build ings and a major face-lifting . that i s scheduled t o run through all parts of the busi ness district. At the outset, most of this work is being done on busi ness property, but a beginning Uoe v.AAn mnria nn residential construction, and this promises to expand stead ily if given half a chance in the materials and regulation situation. It's Here A LOCAL man who is affiliated with con struction activity was in our office the other day. He said that he has 51,000,000 worth of work in his office jobs that axe either underway now, or "in the bag." Most of the work he mentioned is private construc tion, but some public enterprises were included. He didn't try to restrain his enthusiasm. "It's here," he said. "It's the biggest thing in construction that has hit the Klamath coun try. New business buildings, outstanding re modeling jobs in the downtown area, and some amazing residence plans are in the making. "Our country is going to build up to a level that heretofore we've just dreamed about." Face Lifting THE startling remodeling jobs that have been done or are planned by various women's wear stores jobs that caused a visiting colum nist to comment that these shops are a "bit of Fifth avenue" are just a beginning in the business district face-lifting program. If all the work that is planned now is car ' ried through, Klamath will have gone a long way, at least in the business district, in an swering that other writing fellow who gave ; it the bird for "dilapidation without antiquity." As trade center for a huge area, Klamath needs to do just what it is doing to make its shopping facilities attractive, modern and ' convenient. Those with the foresight and the -confidence to do this are deserving of full credit.

The only way they The World Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE Associated Press World Traveler ESSEN, Germany, Feb. 20 It has to be seen to be believed this great industrial and coal mining city, which was blown to smith ereens by American and British bombing dur ing the last year of the war still breathes and moves and has a being, Even more remarkable is the fact that this home of the colossal Krupp armament works was by no means the sole city to cling to a threat of life in the manmade earthquake which swept the manufacturing centers of the Ruhr, Essen's ghostly survival is typical of Iter sister cities. During years of globe trotting your correspondent has encountered few world won ders that have come up to the expectations inspired by advance notices, but among those which have completely fulfilled their promise must be included the bombing of the Ruhr. , Awesome Example ESSEN is an awesome example, for virtually every building in this city which sprawled over many square miles and contained a peak population of nearly three quarters of a million is in ruins. The destruction is so nearly complete that experts estimate it will require 30 years to remove the rubble alone so that reconstruction can be undertaken. How then can this city be alive? Well, it's difficult to answer that question. Still, the fact remains that some 365,000 people are living if you call their mode of existence living and working among the ruins. The whole thing is, like a stage fantasy, unreal. The streets, with block after block and mile after mile of ruined buildings, are filled with people who are scurrying about with all the energy but apparently aimless purpose of a colony of ants. There are well dressed men with brief cases under their arms, workmen, women with shop ping bags, children who are equally occupied with some mysterious errand. People Have Mission SO all these thousands have a mission. But what is it and where can they be going among these ruins? Mrs. Mack and I watched this scurrying of the ants in mystified astonish ment and then we started to' ask questions. At first we didn't get much satisfaction, for other visitors were quite as mystified as we, but finally we arrived at the truth. These scores of thousands actually are living among the ruins, many in the cellars. A lot of folk are salvaging bricks and building them selves little huts against the walls of partly demolished houses. Some lucky people have discovered buildings with a few rooms more or less intact and are making their homes in these. Probably the cold and rains come in, but it is cave man shelter. The moral to this story is that the German people are; "possessed of an immense amount of energy !and persistence. Hitler harnessed these qualities for evil purposes. The allies must harness them for good. SIDE GLANCES core, in rr wt awwr. wc.

I- r Use Of Form W-2 Explained In Income Tax Information (Editor's Note: This is the third of several stories explain ing wno noes wnai aoout nis in come tax return.) By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON, Feb. 20 (7P ' Who can use form W-2, the with holding receipt, in filing his 1945 income tax return? This story explains who can and can t. it you can t, you must use form 1040, as a short-form or long-form return, depending up on your individual case. Form W-2 the receipt given a worker by his boss shows how much tax regularly was with held from his wages or salary in You can use it: 1. If your income was less than $5000 and practically all of it was in wages or salary from which the tax regularly was withheld. . . 2. If besides your wages or V ,'ialary you had income not over .x:fl00 from interest or dividends --.or otner wages not subject to 'withholding, provided that ex tra income did not bring the total income to $duuu. : Examples: Taxes Withheld 1. Your salarv was Ssnnn . Taxes regularly were withheld irom it. You had no other in come. You can use form W-2. 2. Your salarv was S3nnn Taxes regularly were withheld from it. You had income of $100 from interest or dividends or wages not subject to withhold ing. You can use form W-2. If that added income was over Sioo, you'd use the 1040 short 1 form. i 3. Your salary was $3000. ! Taxes regularly were withheld from it. You had added income of only $50 from rents. You could aaJaa1MdN 41eKo W-VEGtTABtl rVWtO LAXATIVi aFS? tUie. l Oatlt.l BltJ(tI not use form W-2, you'd use the 1040 short-form. You can't use form W-2 for re porting income from rents, pro fessional fees, business, partner ships, estates, trusts or annuities. Can husbands and wives make a combined return on form W-2? Yes, if that combined income was less than S5000 and fits the requirements listed above. Examples 1. Your salary was $3000. Your wife's salary was $1800. Total $4800. Tax regularly was Withheld from both salaries. You or your wife additionally had $100 income from interests or dividends. You could use W-2 singly or jointly. 2. Your salary was $3000. Your wife did not work but had $101 income from interest or dividends. You could not make a combined return on form W-2 because her income from divi dends or interest was more than $100. In this case you could use form W-2. Your wife could use the 1040 short-form. Or the pair of you could make a joint return on the 1040 short-form since your total income was under $5000. Suppose the combined salar ies of yourself and wife each subject to regular withholding in 1945 was $5000 or over but individually less than $5000.

(In the nine community prop erty states Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and Washington, husbands and wives cannot file separately on form W-2. They can file separately on form 1040.) There's a place on form W-2 for listing your exemptions but not for listing allowable deduc tions, like charitable contribu tions, interest on mortgages, medical and dental expenses, dues. That's because everyone using form W-2 automatically is given a 10 per cent deduction for such things. Deduction This 10 per cent deduction is figured right into the tax table which the internal revenue col lector uses in finding your tax when you file on form W-2. If your deductions are more than 10 per cent, don't use form W-2. You'll lose money. Use the 1040 long-form.
