on page 2 of the Federal tax return.”
"Concerning losses of foodstuffs
and perishables contained in home
freezers, the cast of such items dam­
aged would be deductible.”
If property owners have insurance
on the property damaged or destroy­
ed. the casualty loss must be reduced
by the amount for which the insur­
ance company is liable. 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.

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
