In bu.vhiK or nelllne stocks or other securities, the (Into that (he transaction ac- UuUIy fakes place Is tin; data used in reporting for tax pur- poses.

You have also stated Hint the date of the purchase or Kiln Is printed on roiifinim- tion slip from tlio brokerace IIHISO handling the transac- tion. Isn't there some exception to this when the transact ion Jft made during the last few days of the year? A. You're i i about the tax rules covering the sale of securities to establish a gain for tax purposes. If you want to establish tax gain in a certain year by selling securities in a "regular way" transaction (that's normal way to trade) the transaction must be made at least four business days before the end of the year. However, by specifying "next day delivery" in a transaction on a stock exchange you can sell and establish a tax gain right up to the next to the last business day of the year.

In thinking about this, be sure- you realize a Satur- days, Sundays a holidays in this case) are not business days. You can sell and establish a loss for tax purposes right up through last business day of the year. Q. I bought 100 xlmrcs of certain stock last year, at a shiirc. The market price of this stock Is now about a share.

I would like to sell 25 shares this year, 25 shares tlifl following ypnr and so on. A each sale. I would wait at least 30 days and repur- chase 2.1 shares of the suinn stock. Is this permitted for tax reasons? A. Yes, the method you pro- pose is one way to establish a tax loss.

You can sell any or all of the shares you own, wait more a 30 days, and buy some of the same stock. If you buy it back within that 30-day period, you will have a "wash sale" and will not be allowed a loss for lax poses. Many investors do this, when they have confidence that the slock will rise in value over the long haul. By a i to Canadian Fishing Trip Planned For Boys AX exciting Canadian fishing trip is being planned for at least 30 boys from the Monroe County YMCA.

You (and, judging by the nmilbzig, of other people) have let yourself in for a prob- lem. Our Federal lax is ad- ministrated under the Iheory a the "burden of proof Is on Ihe That's why keeping confir- mation slips is so important. They prove exactly the price you pay for your stock. There are ways to solve your problem. The brokerage house which you bought the stock might be willing to heck through its records for you, if you arc a really good cuslo- mcr.

But it Is a lot to ask. You might get an approximate cost price by checking dale stock certificates were issued and the price at which the stock sold at that time. Acually, if rcvenooers crack on you, you'll need a good tax lawyer. (Mr. Doyle will answer only representative letters of gen- eral interest in his column.

Here's a question many a man has asked. The records of the probate courts provide the answer.

Homemade wills are wasteful as to costs and taxes paid. Homemade wills may be invalid because of errors and omissions in procedure. Our experience teaches that estate and trust laws call for an experienced legal guide. Your own attorney is essential to the creation of a will or trust, as legal guide and counsel. Our experience in the administration of wills and trusts, is designed to supplement the attorney's services.

We believe the combination provids the utmost protection for your family and estate. TRUST DEPARTMENT THE FIRST-STROUDSBURG NATIONAL BANK Founded 1857 ARLINGTON BRANCH 1110 N. Ninth Street.
