These sketches to the amount you won (if you were taken by the bookies for $1,000 and nicked them back for $100, you can deduct only $100.) And that isn't all. If you suffered a property loss through fire, theft, storm or other casualties and it can't be shown you were negligent you can deduct the full original purchase value) or the full cost of repairs. What's more, if you're smart you'll deduct the full amount of the expenses you ordinarily and necessarily incur as part of your work (such as maintaining a car). There's a rub in this, however, because you can't deduct carfare to the office.

Clark who has been in various Valley cities until this month, will be in his office in Room 7 of the Federal Building basement from 8 to 5 o'clock daily until March 15. He will have two assistants to help him answer questions put by taxpayers. Deadline March 15 Income tax returns must be ei ther in the office of the collector in Austin or in the local office by midnight March 15, Clark said.

KWKH Sundown ere REPORT GAIN Cotton Goods Show Big Increase NEW ORLEANS (JP) Seasonal exports of American cotton crossed the 5,000.000 bale mark Wednesday for the first time since April, 1937. Shipments abroad since the be ginning of the current cotton season.

August 1, reached 5,020,363 bales, 2,297,057 more than during the same period last season. The European war and its at tendant demand for increased cot ton products together with the United States governments export subsidy program which went into effect last July were principal factors behind the better foreign de mand for American growths. The subsidy program was sus pended January 29 because of exhaustion of funds, but the total ot cotton and cotton products contracted for shipment abroad under the proposal was 6.214,000 bales. Shipments totaled only 3.622,742 bales during the whole of last season.

The battle, apparently increasing in intensity, was strung along a front from ice covered Viipuri Bay to the Vuoksi River near the cen ter of the Karelian Isthmus.

PLETCHER'S CHOICE CITRUS FRUITS Oranges ftoc lJ Bothel Pink snd Whits Grapefralt Phont 346 Rarlingta By PAUL ROSS AP Feature Service Writer PSST! Want to save money on your income tax? You'd be surprised what a few hours of jogging your memory and brushing up on arithmetic will do for you. And legitimately, too This all comes, every bit of it from a source close to the United States government Remember the time you bought a pair of tickets for that boxing match? And the time you surprised the wife and, instead of taking her down to the corner movie where the admission is only 25 cents, you bought ordhestra seats for that Shakespeare play? If you'll just figure out all the admissions of more than 40 cents you paid, you can deduct 10 per cent of them from your income. Uncle Sam gives us suckers an even break on donations, too.

If you shelled out for charitable, religious and educational institutions last year, Uncle Sam won't laugh in your face if you deduct as much as 15 per cent of your net income. The only thing is you have to have proof you gave all this money if the tax collector sHould ask for it and the object of your kindness has to be organized under state law. gome Taxes Aren't Taxed instance, you can deduct the tax on club dues, safe deposit boxes, telephone calls, cablegrams. And you can deduct your state income tax, if any, and sales taxes. And If you are an employer, you can deduct the social security taxes you pay on your employes but if you're an employe, nothing doing.

Here another but: If you smoke a lot and drink a lot you've paid a lot of federal excise taxes on to bacco and alcoholic beverages which doesn't make any difference at all in the amount of income tax you owe. To get back to the brighter side of things, you can deduct whatever you paid for a driver's license and auto dates and for state taxes on gasoline. If you play cagey, there are a lot of other thins vou can deduct. Stuff like thisreal estate taxes (provided they aren't such things as water taxes or property improve ment assessments), customs duties, union dues and assessments, inter est paid on that personal loan you made, and your gambling losses up VALLEY SECS HONOR KRING (Continued From Page 1) Ob bom, sports editor of the Valley Morning Star, to investigate pos mi.
