Editor's Note This ii the third
in a series at tour articles on
federal income taxes. The articles
are based on information provided
by the American Institute of Cer
tified Public Accountants and the
Oregon Society of Certified Public
Accountants.
If you are one of those indi-
vidu I taxpayers who is constantly
being collared and doliared for
charitable contributions, you may
save money by paying particular
attention to the timing and plan
ning of your year-end donations.
Before paying off an any more
1957 pledges you might have made;
remember ' that you will not re
ceive a tax credit for your chari
table contributions unless you
itemize deduction on your return.
You can't take the standard 10-
per cent deduction and a special
deduction for donations to charity.
You may take only one or the
other; so plan your year-end
pledge payments accordingly.
If you will be forced to take the
standard 10-per cent deduction this
year, your best tax move would be
to defer payment on your out
standing pledges until after Jan
uary l, pyramiding tnem into
195S when you may be able to
itemize deductions. Howeyer, if
you have had a better-than-aver-age
Income year and are trying
to bunch itemized deductions on
this year's return, you should pay
not only the pledges you have
made but possibly the pledges you
would ordinarily make in early
1958.
Here is an important point to
keep in mind as you plan your
yesr-end pledge payments: a
charitable contribution will be con
sidered paid and therefore
RETIRING after 47 'A yaars
of service with Southern
Pacific is Charlie Davidson,
63-year-old conductor who
began with the SP as a
brakeman, Davidson, who
will retire to hit ranch home
in Weed, California, was
the oldest man from point
of service on the Shasta di
vision. Railroad officials
said he worked between

for the past 20 years.
Councilman
To Quit Post
DUNSMUIR Fred Lloyd, vet
eran city councilman, has an
nounced he will submit his resig
nation at the next council meet
ing, November 6. Lloyd, who has
served nearly eight years as a
councilman and was Dunsmuir's
mayor for two two-year terms, is
currently closing out a variety store
business that he and Mrs. Lloyd
have managed for the past 10
years.
After concluding business mat
ters, the Lloyds plan to move to
Sacramento where they can be
near their daughter and her fam
ily, Lloyd expresses many regrets
at leaving Dunsmuir but feels a
man should retire while he can
enjoy his retirement.
During his terms as councilman,
Lloyd served as police commis
sioner for two years, then as mayor
for four years and is at present
commissioner of public works. His
retirement will necessitate the
fourth appointment to the city coun
cil this year.
Mayor J. M. Jones and E. A.
Christensen arc the only elected
councilmen now serving. Louis
Oberkamp replaced Cecil Baliew.
another appointee, who was trans
ferred to Sacramento and Dave
McClintock was named when coun
cilman Robert Dickson moved to
Klamath Fails. Jones moved to the
mayor's post when Victor Petrovics
resigned this spring and Jones
seat was filled by Baliew.
Income Tax Tips
PTA Meets
New Teachers
in the year when the deductible
check is delivered to the charity
ana n wnen it is actually cashed
A gift does not have to be in
cash to entitle you'to a charitable
deduction. It can be in property.
and since you can claim a deduc
tion tor the full market value of
a property gift, it may actually
pay you to give away items that
are bow worm more than they
cost.
For example, suppose that you
own a few shares of stock that
cost you a lew years ago.
Today the stock is worth S150.
and apparently fully priced. If you
know you are going to be ap
proached by a church, charity,
college or the like for a sizeable
donation within the next lew
months, you might consider con
tributing these securites before the
end of the year.
By giving this property away.
the organization yoa care to favor
wiu oenetit by receiving property
which they may hoid or sell, and
you will establish a $150 charitable
deduction for your 1957 tax return.
Furthermore, you avoid paying a
capital gams tax on the urofit.
If you must dismiss the idea of
giving away a piece of real es
tate or a block of stock within the
next few years, don't overlook the
opportunity of building up your
charitable deduction by donating;
sucn -property" as used furniture,
clothing, books and tovs to s
worthy charity. The value of these:
items a deductible, too.
The state and local taxes which
,w $fsy. oic iau ueuucuuie items;
that often can be pyramided toi
give a tax advantage. Some taxes :
that fail due early in 1958 can bei
prepaid to give you an addition-1
a! deduction on this year's federal !;
tax return. On the other hand, it
may be to your advantage to de
lay payments until 1958. Ba care
ful when you do this, however.
You may incur a late payment
penalty.
While businessmen and farmers
can do everything that a salaried:
worker can do to cat their tax
bills, they also have special op
portunities to time year-end deductions.
A farmer, for example, who re
ports for tax purposes on a cash
basis, can deduct ms expendi
tures in the year paid. By pur
chasing his I9a gram require-:
ments in December, he can in
crease deductions on his 1957
return. If be borrows money to
make this purchase, the interest
paid on the loan during the year
s also deductible.
A businessman, whose year-end
tax plan tails for bunching de
ductions on this year's return, can
time the sale of used equipment
to establish loss deductions. For
example, by wiling a truck that
has a depreciated value of $800
and a real market value of $500,
a businessman may claim a tax
credit for his $300 "loss." If he
sells the truck before December
31, he can take this deduction on
his 195? return.
Taxes are only one factor to
consider when you art investing
or divesting but if you had bad
luck this year in the stock mar
ket, remember that careful plan
ning of your year-end security
transactions can turn errors of in
vestment judgment into doiiar-and-ceats
tax savings, A word of warn
ing, however; the Capital gains
and loss law is not si simple as
some people believe it to be. You
would be wise to casndt year tax
adviser before you begin shuffling
your stock Striding to establish
tosses sad gains on your tax return.
