Government Ready To Restore Some
; Production Controls, Boost Prices
To Ease Cotton Clothing Shortage
; WASHINGTON, Feb. 21 (IP)
The government is ready to re
store some wartime production
controls and 8 r a n t higher
prices to ease the acute short
age of cotton clothing.
1 OPA and the civilian produc
tion administration believe this
double-barrelled program even
tually will boost by about 50 per
cent the output of shirts, shorts,
pajamas, dresses, work clothing
fnd other scarce garments.
Officials of the two agencies
told reporters late yesterday that
desDite Drice increases to be au
thorized, the program will not
cost tne puonc more lor doming
in general.
They contended the plan will
increase the suddIv of inexpen
sive garments, and that in the
long run this will save money for
tnuny ittmiiius.
v. Greater Output
5 To assure greater output of
Cheaper clothing, the civilian
production administration plans
f'soon" to re-invoke a wartime
regulation which required textile
mflls to turn out certain types
ot cotton fabrics needea lor es
sential garments,
Tliic ie f h lrinrf nf mpneure
fchester Bowles, the new stabili
sation administrator, had in mind
$vhen he said a few days ago that
Jprice increases will be . coupled
With production controls to meet
demand lor scarce products.
The price increase for cotton
fabrics will be in two parts:
1. A general increase of about
three and one-half cents a pound
in recognition of higher parity
firices for raw cotton and to off
et recent wage increases. Mills
Which did not hike wages will
Bet only about one cent of this.
.. 2. An additional incentive in-
-fcrease of five per- cent to apply
on selected fabrics - urgently
needed for clothing and for cer
tain industrial ana agricultural
purposes.
. While the agencies sponsoring
the program were unable to esti
mate the overall effect of these
adjustments on retail prices,
they said present ceilings on
shirts, for example, might be
hiked about five or- six cents.
Thev made the point, however.
that where only a few shirts are
available now at 5a.su, tne goal
of the new program is to provide
a generous supply at about a
nickel more.
FHHng Out Tax Form W-2
Explained In Information
Editor's Note: This is the
fourth of several stories ex
plaining who does what about
his 1945 income taxes.)
By JAMES MARLOW
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21 (IP)
Don't send money to the internal
revenue collector when you mail
him your 1949 income tax re
turn on Form W-2.
Form W-2 is the receipt a boss
gives a worker to show how
much he earned in 1945 and how
much tax was withheld from
him.
The collector checks your re
turn. If you owe him money,
he'll tell you. you pay mm witn
in 30 days after he notifies you.
If he finds too much tax has
been withheld from you, you'll
get a refund.
Note to husbands and wives:
if you both had income in 1945
and are within the requirements
for using Form W-2 then
Don't worry whether to file
separate or combined returns on
Form W-2. The collector, by law,
must figure out the cheaper way
for you.
Can't Lose
So, whether you file separate
or combined returns, you can't
lose. You will get the benefit of
the collector's figuring.
If you worked for more than
one boss who withheld taxes from
your 1945 wages, get a Form
W-2 receipt from each.
Without all the receipts, you
can't make a return on Form
W-2. You'll have to use. Form
1040.
If you have them all, attach
them to the receipt from your
last boss. That's the one you fill
out and file. Don't fill out the
others.
The withholding receipt, Form
W-2, which the boss gives you, is
in "original" and "duplicate."
Fill in the "original." Send it to
the collector. Keep the "dupli
cate." -
On the "original" the boss al
ready has written your name
and address, how much money
you earned, how much tax he
withheld irom you.
Answer Questions
You answer the other ques
tions on the "original," taking
them step by step. They're very
simple. Here's an example of
how Form W-2 is filled out.
You, married, with one child,
in 1945 earned $4500 in wages.
Your wife, not working, received
$95 in interest on bonds. Then,
following the questions, vou
write on the right line:
Your income, $4500;' your
wife's $95 in interest; then the
total of the two incomes, $4595.
Where it asks which of the
figures already written is your
income, which is your wife's,
you write $4500 for yourself, $95
for your wife.
Since it's a combined return
of yourself and wife, you both
sign it. If you were filing just
your return, you alone would
sign it.
Be sure to list your exemp
tions. Point lo Remember
Here's a point to remember
but don't let it confuse you. Just
follow the questions on the
Form W-2 which you happen to
have.
During 1945 the Internal re
venue department sent out load
of Form W-2 to employers. Later
in the year, to simplify the form
still further, the department sent
out slightly different forms.
No matter which one your
boss gives you, you can file your
return on it. On one under "ex
emptions" you list yourself
first, then your wife, then your
child.
On the other under "exemp
tions" you list only your child
(in the example given here).
That's because, on another
part of the return, you list your
wife's name where the form asks,
if you're married, to give your
wife's name
Exemptions
On this form without speci
fically listing yourself and wife
as exemptions you automatical-

two forms is given here only be
cause some readers may have
