in 13 parties they covered 600
miles In their pursuit of bird life

1954 as well as the number of spe
cies oeing 12 less. Tne greatest
number of birds were counted in
the Klamath-Tule Lake National
Wildlife refuges which turned in a
report of 27 species with a total
of 19,256. Crater Lake National
Park reported six species with 19
individuals seen. The Modoc Lava

Some Flood, Storm Damages
Can Be Deducted From Taxes
WASHINGTON W There is
some consolation lor tnose wno
suffered from the 111 winds and
other causes of 1955's major disas
ters: Some of the losses, at least,
may be deducted for Income tax
purposes.
Taxpayers must be sure, how
ever, that the kind 01 casualty
from which they sullered a loss
Is deductible. And there are some
special rules that must be
observed.
The Internal Revenue Service
has published a special new book
let on the subject. It is called
How the federal income tax ap
plies to losses from hurricanes,
floods and other disasters."
The free booklet Is obtainable
from Revenue Service offices.
First, what is a casualty?
The Income tax law defines a
casualty as damage resulting from
"an identifiable event of a sudden,
unexpected or unusual nature."
This Includes such things as hur
ricanes, cyclones, tornados, earth
quakes, floods, .forest fires and
similar natural disasters.
Losses from fires which do not
arise from a natural cause and
which may affect only the property
of one taxpayer also are deduct
able casualties.
Not classed as deductible losses
are those from some steadily op
erating cause, such as land ero
sion or the weakening of a struc
ture from normal action of weath
er or water. Nor may a deduction
' ARMY PRAISED
SEOUL IB Defense Minister

be made for loss In value of prop
erty because It is In a flood or
storm area.
Deductible losses, in general,
must result from some "sudden
destructive force."
When is the loss deductible?
Casualty losses are deductable
only in the taxable year when they
occurred. Since most people pay
tneir taxes on a calendar year
basis, they can deduct from 1968
income only for losses suffered in
1955.
What is the deductable loss?
There are two kinds of casualty
losses that may be deducted. One
is a non-business loss suffered by
a taxpayer whose home, pleasure
boat, automobile, or other property
is damaged or destroyed.
The other is loss to business prop
erty, including buildings, equip
ment and inventories. ,
As business tax bookkeeping may
Involve such complex Items as
capital gains, the rules for deduct
ing business loans become pretty
complicated. It is best for any bus
inessman who does not have his
own tax adviser to seek help from
the Revenue Service. The farmer,
like other businessmen, probably
needs such expert advice in mak
ing a casualty loss deduction.

In addition to its usual chore of
introducing the new year, Janu

the meal maker. The blustery
weather still ahead means that
youngsters and oldsters alike
must have nourishing, filling
meals as a safeguard against
colds and that "mid-winter
slump". But menu-planning is
even more of a problem after the
holiday feasting and, of course,
the food budget has probably
been sadly overworked. With
these thoughts In mind, let'i try
this tasty, warming casserole.
Golden crusted topping made
with superior Oregon wheat flour
makes this tangy casserole a sat
isfying mid-winter luncheon or
supper dish. It's easy to mix, too.

'Deterrence'
Sets Election
WASHINGTON tf Secretary of
State Dulles has gained a reputa
tion for sometimes stating the
harsh facts of his diplomacy in
blunt undiplomatic words which
stir up controversy.
Today, It. appears, he may have
don it again.
He may also have sparked
debate tn this election campaign
year on the effectiveness of the
"policy of deterrence" he credits
with holding the Chinese CommU'
nlsts at bay In- Korea and Indo
china in 1953, and more recently
in tne Formosa area.
In addition, he seems to have
posed sharply the question of the
extent to which fear of American
readiness to wage atomic war is a
brake on Communist expansion.
In an article in Life magazine,
out today, Dulles Is quoted as say
Ing it Is "a pretty fair Inference"
that America's readiness to fight
on a broader scale If necessury
brought the Korean War to an end
and that the same "policy of de
terrence" kept the Red Chinese
from marching into Indochina prior
to mid-19S4 and has stopped them
In the Formosa area.
He was also quoted as saying:

tournament Is the eighth highest

"You have to take chances for
peace, Just as you must take

were brought to the verge of war
(in the three Instances cited). Of
course we were brought to the
verge of war,
"The ability to get to the verge
without getting into war Is the nec
essary art. If you cannot master
it, you Inevitably get into war. If
you try to run away from It, if you
are scared to go to tne brink, you
are lost.
"We've had to look it square In
the face ... We walked to the

We took strong action."

A Cadillac stretches a gallon of gasoline over
so many miles that it is actually the rival of much
smaller, lighter cars in this regard.
And a Cadillac will retain its value over the
years belter than any other automobile in the land.
The conclusion is, we think, self-evident!
Cadillac ownership is not only wonderful and
thrilling but sound and sensible as well.
