NEW YORK (l Olorifled ham
Is a standard commodity on the
Broadway stage.
But Arthur Malsel has founded a
fortune In the mldtown glitter belt
by glorifying It. In a national dish
ham and eggs. His success tale is
a story of showmanship in food.
Ten years ago Mnisel was a radio
salesman, worried that wartime
shortages would put him out of
work. He dropped Into a Broadway
restaurant and ordered some ham
and eggs.
"By the time Uiey got to me they
were cold," he. said. "That had
happened to me a lot of times. I
got to wondering why.
"I was a kind of a gourmet. So
I went home and experimented in
my own kitchen. 1 found that If I
served them In the skillet they
were cooked in they stayed hot."
With $900 he had saved and $3,200
he borrowed Malsel opened a res
taurant on Broadway specializing
in ham and eggs served In short
handled, gleaming stainless steel
skillets hot from the fire. The only
other things on the menu were
coffee and deep dish pies.
"If I had known more about the
restaurant business I wouldn't have
dared the gamble." Malsel recalled
with a smile. "Everyone then lig
ured only a hamburger stand could
get by with only one real Item on
the menu."
But the Broadwayites came in
hordes. These homeless sophisti
cates like the homey touch of eat
ing out of a skillet.
Today Malsel has six colorful
restaurants in mid-Manhattan,
grosses $4,000,000 a year, plans a
national chain of ham-and-eggeries.
He has now expanded his menu
to include other standard dishes
such as steak, potatoes and onions.
"I aim at a forgotten mass mar
ketthe white collar class," he
said. "They are the people who
want a good American dinner un
der $2."
(EDITOR'S Note: This is the
fifth of 10 stories explaining how
to make out your 1951 income
tax return.)
WASHINGTON Wl Here are
things you can and can't claim
as personal expenses If you Itemize
your deductions.
This story deals only with de
ductible personal, not business, ex
penses. And at the end is a list of tax
free income Which doesn't have" to
be reported at all.
You do your itemizing on page 3
of Form 1040 under six headings on
the top half of the page: Contri
butions, interest, taxes, losses from
natural causes. and theft, medical
and dental expenses, and miscel
laneous. Contributions
You can't deduct more than 15
per cent of income for contribu
tions. Within .that limit you can
deduct for contributions to non
profit organizations operated for
charitable, religious, scientific or
literary purposes. Examples:
Community chest: Red Cross;
heart and cancer societies; Socie
ties for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Children and Animals; USO; Amer
ican Legion . and other veterans
outfits. Tntirf.;t -
You can deduct for Interest you
paid on installment purcnases; on
hnrrnweri monev or Dersonal notes;
on life Insurance loans; and on the
mortgage on your home.
Taxes
You can deduct for state Income
and personal property and real es
tate taxes except those which, like
paving assessments, tend to in
crease the value of your property;
school taxfes; auto license plates
and drivers' licenses, but not auto
inspection fees: state poll taxes;
slate unemployment Insurance tax
es: and state or local retail taxes.
like gasoline if under the laws of
your state they are Imposed di
rectly on the consumer or if they
are imposed on the retailer, or
wholesaler in the case of gasoline
taxes, and the amount of tax is
separately stated by the retailer to
tnc consumer.
But you cannot deduct for fed
eral Incomes taxes, federal social
security taxes which you pay for
yourself or a domestic employe, if
you're an employer, or which are
withheld from your pay if you're an
employe.
You cannot deduct, as a personal
expense, taxes for tickets to thea
ters, ball games, movies, night
ciuds. you cannot deduct gut, in
heritance or estate taxes; federal
excise or luxury taxes such as on
books; federal taxes on tobacco and
' liquor; federal taxes on gasoline,
oil. tires: federal taxes on radios
and refrigerators; taxes on person
al telephone calls: or taxes on
travel lares, such as trains, ships,
planes, buses.
Losses
You can deduct for damage to
your home or other property by
fire, hurricane, flood, lightning,
storm, freezing, explosion; damage
to your car in an accident if you
were not wilfully at fault, you'd
be wilfully at fault If you were
driving drunk. And you can deduct
lor property loss through theft.
Medical and dental expenses
' Until this year no taxpayer could
deduct 'for medical or dental ex
penses except for that part which
exceeded 8 per cent of his income.
The law has been changed a bit
but onlv for some beoDle.
Now if a taxpayer or his wife
is aa or over meaning he could be
43 ana nis wiie ea or trie coma oe
60 and he 65 he can skip that five
per cent limitation i that applies
to tnose under bb.
That is, he- doesn't have to take
only that part of his medical ex
Dense which exceeds 6 per cent of
nis income.
' He can take the expense from
the start up to the limit on the
total amount of medical expenses
which can be claimed by anyone.
Malsel says he can produce this
by buying his supplies from the
source instead of through middle
men. The 125,000 customers he
serves each week consume 144.000
eggs, three tons of ham, two car
loads of potatoes, two carloads of
onions, and four-and-a-half tons of
beel.
'A restaurant needs a theme,"
is his belief. "The town was over
run with Italian, French and Chi
nese restaurants. None seemed to
be taking a pride in its American
food. Ihafs why I concentrated on
it."
Maisel made money so fast It
began to bother him.
He was proud ol his financial
success he still Is but he felt
that a growing bank account didn t
justify a man's being alive.
One day a garage attendant told
him of a brother who was in prison
and eligible for parole "If he only
had a job."
Malsel investigated, arranged tor
a job, got the man freed. The inci
dent got him interested in prison
welfare, and it has become almost
a second career with him. He has
helped free and (ind jobs for some
50 convicts.
"I don't touch habitual crimin
als," he said. "But I do want to
help neglected men who have made
one mistake, paid for it. and de
serve a second chance. And no one
I've helped has ever betrayed my
trust.
"I am not religious, but I tell
vou I felt the call to help these
"men. Sometimes people. In the en
deavor to build themselves up.
forget the rest of the world. I didn't
want to be like that."
Maisel has enlisted Broadway
business associates in his work. He
sometimes drives 500 miles himself
to visit a prison, help a parolee get
a freh start in life.
He says it has given him more
happiness than the gold he found in
glorifying ham and eggs.
The limit varies by the number of
exemptions a person can claim.
For a detailed explanation of
medical expenses and limits on the
total that can be claimed see page
4 of the 16-page pamphlet "How
to Prepare Your U.S. income Tax
Return' which the government
furnishes free for everyone item
izing on Form 1040.
Deductions for dependents of peo
ple 65 remain the same as for de
pendents of people under 65. That
is. thev start deducting only mat
part of the medical bill which ex
ceeds 5 per cent ol their income.

fessional societies and for union
dues; for fees paid for help In mak
ing out your income tax return;
for gambling losses but not more
than you reported as gambling
gams.

Outside we could hear our platoon

A hard little man with a little pot

"Come Yancey, come Clancy,

We tumbled outside in a swirl of

So cold that each man could have

"Get up on that hill and silence
