However, dis aster relief in the form of food, medi cal supplies or subsistence, which are not replacement of lost property does not reduce the amount of the casualty loss deduction. Further, the receipt of such items does not rep resent taxable income. Erickson said that Internal Reve nue Service Document 5174 gives de tailed information on computing, doc umenting and deducting storm losses. As a service to Oregon taxpayers, several thousand additional copies of this document have been ordered and will be available, without charge, at all local Internal Revenue offices on January 4, 1965. Any person needing tax assistance or additional information may either write, phone or call at the nearest Internal Revenue office. More information will be issued on the subject of deductibility of casual ty losses at a later date.

J a r R egularly 79c pair Rubbing Alcohol---Now 22c A. G. Erickson, district director, Internal Revenue Service for Oregon, announced recently that residents who suffered losses to their proper ty as a result of the recent flooding, may deduct the flood damage as a casualty loss on their 1964 Federal income tax returns . The amount of loss that may be deducted is the decrease in the fair market value of the property as a result of the flooding, but limited to adjusted basis of the property before the casualty. Losses to property used for personal purposes are deduc tible only to the extent that the loss exceeds $100. Losses to property used for business purposes are de ductible without regard to the $100 limitation. The loss in fair market value can best be determined by an appraisal of the property immediately before and after the casualty. The appraisal should be made by a qualified ap praiser. Erickson stressed that im mediate steps should be taken by property owners to document the ex tent of damage from the flood by photographs, appraisals, repair esti mates or other permanent documen tary evidence of the flood loss. Erickson further stated, that costs of restoring and cleaning up after the flood is acceptable as evidence of the decrease in value of the property if; (1) they are necessary to restore the property to its pre-casualty con dition; (2) the amount spent for re storation is not excessive; (3) they do no more than take care of he damage suffered; and (4) the value of the property after restoration is no more than its value before the casualty. “Costs of photos, appraisal or other evidence of the loss is deductible as a miscellaneous itemized deduction V Nylon Hose........ 2 pr. 79c Popular shades.
