Its 10 per cent erf gross income with a ceiling of $30 a month.

Jones takes off $30, bringing his net to $616.40. If medical bills run over $10 a month, including health insurance premiums, theres another deduction. In this case, assume costs of $40 a month, making the net $576.80. After that, deductions are allowed for some educational expenses or child care if thats necessary to allow an adult to work. Lets assume they pay $25 a month for private kindergarten fees, making the adjusted figure $551.80.

If Jones made court-ordered support or alimony payments, he could deduct those. And finally, the rules allow a deduction of shelter costs which exceed 30 per cent of income after all other INCREDIBLE!

In this hypothetical case, it would be 30 per cent of $551.80, or $166. The Jones bills for mortgage principal and interest, real estate taxes, water, sewage, utilities and one telephone might add up to $266 a month.

The difference is a $100 deduction. That brings Jones! $800 monthly income to an adjusted net of $451.80 under the $513 eligibility ceiling for a family of four. Under current regulations, the Joneses would be eligible to spend $130 for a monthly allotment of food stamps worth $154, or $24 in extra buying power. If their net income was lower, the bonus would be bigger. At a net of $375, for example, a family of four would pay $104 in cash for the $154 stamp allotment, a bonus of $50.

We carpet-bombed the island, but the bombs did not explode. They just landed with a crump, and they obviously spread gas over the entire island, he said. He said a couple of days later he was having a few beers with Col. Crowther in the officers mess when Crowther said, We got them all. It was only then he told me about the prisoners, apparently from jails like Alcatraz who were serving life sentences, Hampshire said.

None of the Australians had any idea there was any life on the island. Hampshire said he felt he had to speak out now because the Australian government had at last agreed to give compensation to men who had suffered injuries in other gas experiments during the war. Atheists Give Colson Award LOS ANGELES (UPI) -Charles W. Colson, the onetime aide to President Richard Nixon who was sentneced to prison for his part in the Watergate scandal, was voted the religous hypocrite of the year at the annual American Atheists Convention this weekend. The convention was sponsored by Madalyn Murray OHair, the nonbeliever who was responsible for the 1963 Supreme Court decision banning prayers in public schools.

A convention spokesman said Co Is (xi was given the award because, when faced with a prison sentence, he suddenly saw the light and professed his new found religious dedication. Colson, before serving a seven-month prison term for obstruction of justice in the Watergate scandal, said he was converted to Christ.

He qualifies for food stamps.

With an income of $9,600 a year, Jones is well out of the poverty class. But his fellow taxpayers are paying part of his grocery bill under a rapidly expanding food stamp program which most Americans once viewed as help for the bone poor and hungry. The Jones family is not real its a statistical example to show how many people who dont regard themselves as welfare cases may be eligible for federal help with food bills. Real families have been swelling food stamp rolls in the past year. By February, 18.4 million Americans got stamps.

By June, Agriculture Department experts estimate a 20.8 million total about one person in 10. Other experts estimate millions more may be eligible. To get into the program, Jones would have to show local officials who handle certifications that he had less than $1,500 in cash, property and other resources. Most of the things usually considered property are not counted. Jones owns a mortgaged house worth about $40,000.

But the family home is not a resources for food stamp purposes. Neither is the family clothing, furniture, jewelry like the $500 diamond ring Mrs. Jones inherited, the cash value of Jones insurance, his 1973 car, the family freezer and color TV. Assets that count include $300 in a savings bank, $400 in savings bonds, and a second car valued at $600, which must be counted as a resource because it's not used to get to work. The $1,300 total means the Jones family clears the first hurdle.

Income-producing property and tools of a trade dont count either. Since the Joneses are not in the automatically eligible welfare class, their income also must be low enough. This, too, looks impossible. Gross income is $800 a month while the eligibility ceiling for a family of four is $513. The $513, however, is adjusted net income, reached after a long list of specific deductions.

From the $800 gross, Jones subtracts the $128.20 taken out of his monthly check for federal income and social security taxes. Then he subtracts another $25 for pension payments and union dues. An such mandatory deductions, including state or local income taxes and even some types of garnishments, are ignored. This brings the net to $646.80. At this point a work allowance covers things like commuting costs and meals r-yt Ah fl I 5 kf HARD TO GET!

Fischer OKs Karpov Offer MANILA (UPI) Bobby Fisher today accepted an offer by world chess champion Anatoly Karpov to meet and discuss terms for a match under rules negotiated by the two players, a Filipino chess official said. Florencio Campmanes, Deputy President of International Chess Federation, said Fischer caBed from Pasadena, and asked him to send a cable to Karpov accepting the 23-year-old Russians proposal for a match with the rules worked out between the two of them. Campomanes, a long-time friend of Fischer, said he had sent the cable to Moscow, and he released the text to newsmen: It is a fine gesture of Mr.

Karpov to offer to talk personaDy with me on terms and conditions for a.match, Fischer said. I propose to meet with him in Manila or elsewhere. Everything should be open to discussions. I want to discuss this matter seriously. Soonest reply will be appreciated.

Fischer lost his world title early this month by default because he refused to accept the International Chess Federation rules for a $5 million championship match with Karpov in Manila Karpov, the challenger, was proclaimed the new champion, but he shortly afterward offered to meet Fischer anyway with the rules worked out manto-man basis.

Plus 5 Reg. 21.88 16 88 OMGJ1 ID DOD DS SYDNEY (UPI) A former Australian bomber pilot said today he helped kill volunteer American prisoners in a World War II poison gas experiment.

John Hampshire, a retired air force captain, said in a telephone interview with UPI that he and other pilots carpet bombed a Barrier Reef island in 1944 with 360 gas cannisters, wiping out all life almost instantaneously. I was told later that prisoners -serving life sentences in United States jails had been brought to the island as volunteers in the poison gas test, he said. They had apparently been told that if they lived through the-tests their sentences would be shortened. But none of them lived. Australian Minister for Defense Lance Barnard today ordered a full investigation into Hampshires accusations, which were published in Australian News Ltd.

newspapers. Hampshire said because of secrecy in the experiment he never learned how many prisoners were on the island off Cairns 880 miles north of Brisbane when it was bombed on January 21, 1944. The bombing mission was led by a U.S. officer, Lt. Col.

Jess Crowther of the 5th U.S. Air Force, then based at Charters Towers in Northern Queensland, he said. It was a couple of days after the attack that Crowther told me we had killed the prisoners and sheep and goats that had been put on the island in bomb shelters 30 feet deep, similar to Japanese shelters on the Pacific island of Tarawa. Hampshire said an island, about half a mile wide, had been chosen and dug out to resemble, as close as possible. Tarawa, where Japanese soldiers had survived American bombardment in deep shelters.
