Sylvia Porter When do you pay the tax owed, if any? When you sell your house and do not buy another. (The real tax-saving strategy would be to seek ways to use the $100,000 exclusion to erase the tax.) These two breaks are not mutually exclusive. A person who has sold a home and who qualifies for both breaks can use both. Minneapolis Tribune 1 1 A June 26, 1979 U.S. car sales for mid-June off sharply from year ago Associated Press Detroit, Mich.

The new-car market plunged 26.2 percent In mid-lune from record year-ago figures, the nation's automakers reported Monday. The report also said Americans are showing a preference for smaller, fuel-efficient cars. For the June 11-20 period, the five U.S. automakers delivered an estimated 257,668 cars, down from the record 310,320 a year ago. The daily rate, the industry yardstick for determining sales, was 28.629 for the nine selling days, compared with 38,790 in eight days last year.

Four of the companies reported steep declines. General Motors Corp (GM) was at 155.928, off 24.1 percent based on the daily rate; Ford Motor Co. slipped 31.5 percent to 64.092, Chrysler was off 34 percent to 27.971; and American Motors Corp. (AMC), which only reports sales monthly, was estimated at a 40.8 percent drop. Volkswagen, which is in the first full year of U.S.

production at its New Stanton, plant, said it delivered 5,177 domestic Rabbit models. During June 1978's record performance, the industry was recovering sales lost during severe winter weather. GM said its figures indicated that while large cars accounted for 36 percent of its sales a year ago, the percentage had dropped to 29 percent most recently. Small cars, meanwhile, went from 26 percent a year ago to 34 percent. Medium-size cars were constant, representing 37 percent of sales.

For the calendar year to date, industry sales are 4,183,878, a drop of 7.2 percent from 1978. CM has declined 3.8 percent, Ford is off 14 6 percent ard Chrysler has dropped 16.5 percent. AMC is estimated to be off 22.9 percent. Pipeline Continued from page 1A The pipeline would enter Minnesota near Le Roy and follow Chicago North Western Railroad tracks to near Hayfield, Minn. The disputed area starts there.

Alexander approved a route that generally heads northwest from there to a point east of Faribault before heading north to Pine Bend, In Dakota County, where the Koch refinery is located. The special panel had recommended that the route continue to follow railroad tracks from Hayfield to Kenyon, a less direct route that the panel based solely upon agricultural considerations. (The route approved by Alexander crosses 352 drainage tile systems while the railroad route would have crossed 87.) Alexander said that a recent decision by the Minnesota Supreme Court limits his authority to review pipelines only to their effect upon the environment, and that he cannot "require changes in the proposal based upon some other considerations, no matter how meritorious." He said the special panel he had appointed earlier made Its recommendation before the Supreme Court decision. According to Alexander, the limiting court decision was announced June 8. The decision of the advisory panel was dated June 19.

Shortly after Alexander signed the order yesterday, members of Reroute Crude Oil (RCO), a farm-oriented group opposed to the pipeline, sought to block the use of eminent domain (the right to condemn land) In Mower County District Court. Judge Warren Plunkett took the request under advisement and scheduled a full hearing on pipeline-related Issues for Aug. 8. Pipeline opponents also have filed a lawsuit In Illinois seeking to block the project. The 24-Inch pipeline would stretch 476 miles from Wood River, 111., to near the Twin Cities.

In the beginning it would pump 130,000 barrels a day of crude oil moved by barge up the Mississippi River from the Gulf of Mexico. After construction of an additional pumping station in Minnesota, the flow of oil would be Increased eventually to 239,500 barrels per day, nearly the total amount of crude oil the state Is receiving now. Alexander said that he notified Gov. Al Quie yesterday before announcing the decision and that the governor did not try to influence the decision "In any way." Quie at one time op-, posed the pipeline. It would cut across the First District, which Quie Last In a series There are two ways you can avoid paying capital gains tax on the profit from sale of your home this year and in the future: The new 1 00,000 exclusion (we'll call this the exclusion).

The traditional sale-and-replace-ment tax (we'll call this the deferral). Both breaks apply to the sale of a principal residence but that's just about where the similarity ends. There are several vital differences between the breaks. Because the 100,000 exclusion Is new, many of you are confusing the distinctions. Below is a simple rundown of how they differ.

Who qualifies for the breaks: The exclusion Is limited to home sellers who: Are at least 55 on the date of the sale. Have resided In the home for three out of the five years before the sale.

The governor changed his position earlier this year, however, when the project was facing possible death in leva and when It appeared that Minnesota's chances of obtaining crude oil elsewhere were narrowing. He and other opponents of the line had favored, as an alternative to the Koch line, construction of a pipeline from Puget Sound in Washington to Clearbrook, known as the Northern Tier Pipeline. It would bring Alaskan crude oil to the Upper Midwest.

However, that project was placed In doubt by John Millhone, former energy agency director, who rejected It shortly before leaving office. Although that project is being reconsidered In Minnesota, energy officials have expressed feelings thai the Koch project could be completed much sooner. Under a 1979 state law, the pipeline project in southern Minnesota will be buried 4'2 feet underground. Alexander said it will be subjected to the strictest standards any pipeline has ever faced in the state. page A "My allocation, based on last year, was 24,000 gallons for June." Smith said, less than half the amount he was capable of selling.

That was cut to 70 percent just under 17,000 gallons as the shortage worsened. But because of the refmery problems, actual deliveries this month have been just 12,000 gallons. The resulting experience has improved Smith's vocabulary, at least: "I've been called every name in the book" by motorists to whom service has been refused even as he fills the truck of a commercial customer. "I can't really blame them," Smith said philosophically. "They don't understand it, and I can see their point I don't understand it myself." "You go to bed at night knowing that when you wake up you face the same problems all over again," Smith said.

"You just wish you could leave town till it's all over." Phiilips assured him yesterday that its refinery is back In full production and that his difficulties might be cured by the end of this week or the first part of next. They better be, Smith was saying yesterday. "If July is like it was in June, I'll be out of business."

Cooper, 55, who bought and sold several homes. He used the sale-and-replacement break on each of the sales to postpone the tax on his profits. Now he wants to move into a smaller home, so he sells bis present home for $165,000. He has a potential taxable profit of $1 OO.OOO on the sale (most of It built up from profits on earlier salps over the years). Mr.

Cooper can use the new exclusion to avoid the tax on the first $100,000 of his profit. But what about the remaining It is at this point that the exclusion break and the sale-and-replacement break act in tax-saving tandem. Because he takes advantage of the exclusion, Mr. Cooper treated as having sold his house for $65,000 ($165,000 actual proceeds less the $100,000 exclusion). The main message of this series is this: Develop planning of your tax-saving strategy for this year now.

Don't overlook the traps in support of your parents when they get their Social Security benefit increases next month. If your parents are babysitting for you, start now to take advantage of the new tax credit break. Don't forget: Jan. 1, 1980, will be too late for tax-saving on income.

The centers, The Meadows in Las Vegas, and Columbia Mall in Grand Forks, N.D., were sold to an Investment subsidiary of Shell Pension Fund of the Hague, The Netherlands. The fund provides pension benefits primarily to Dutch employees of companies In the Royal DutchShell Group.

Have not taken advantage of any part of the exclusion before this transaction. In contrast, the deferral Is available to home sellers of any age who buy another principal residence within certain time limits (generally 18 months before or after the sale).

There Is no minimum residency requirement on deferral. And there's no limit on the number of times you can use the deferral, with one exception: You can't use it more often than once In an 18-month period unless the sale is job-related. Here is how the two home-sale breaks work: The exclusion allows you to avoid the tax permanently on the first $100,000 of your home sale profits. The deferral allows you to postpone the tax on all your profit, no matter how big, If you buy a home that costs at least as much as the home you sold.

Smith, 41, had had high hopes for building a thriving business when he took over the station last fall. Located at a busy intersection, the business had dwindled as the long-time owner developed other interests and looked forward to selling out. "I figured the commercial accounts, which were running about $3,000 a month, were something to build on," Smith explained. So when the property was sold, he contacted the new owners and arranged to lease the station, signing notes for the equipment and Inventories. He expanded the hours, hired more people to improve service and began going after the commercial customers.

Within six months, he said, the commercial business had more than tripled, to about $10,000 a month, and the total volume had doubled, to about 2,000 gallons a day. "We were on our way," Smith said with a shake of his head. Then came the gas crunch. Smith found himself particularly vulnerable, for a couple of reasons. First, the previous owner had reduced his gasoline purchases from Phillips in order to seek a better price from a variety of independent brokers, which meant that Smith's allocation from the company was limited.

As his business began to grow, Smith managed to make contact with a supplier who took up the slack. But when the crunch came, the supplier was simply unable to help him. Then problems developed at one of the Phillips refineries. buys Texas linens firm Services, Minneapolis based textile leasing firm, an nounced Monday that it has bought the assets of Johnson Linen-Texas Garment Ft.
