Dear Editor:
I will appreciate very much for
public awareness of the spinal
cord injured your giving the
following letter space in your
newspaper since I feel there are
many we have not reached and,
too, new injuries continue to
occur.
Since November 26, 1980, my
husband has been paralyzed from
the waist down, faced other
obstacles, and confined to a
wheelchair with a spinal cord in
jury as a result of a fall from a
ladder.
In July, 1982, we joined the
Spinal Cord Society. This is a non
profit international organization
that is moving fast towards its
goal of cure for paralysis due to
spinal cord injury. SCS opened a
Spinal Center at the University of
Minnesota Hospitals and Clinics,
Minneapolis, Minnesota,
November 20,1984. It is the first
and only one in the world
specializing in advanced treat
ment for chronic spinal cord in
jury and related neural problems.
The Spinal Center is very suc
cessful and with new research in
various locations, we are excited
and have high hopes that it will be
beneficial to the many chronic
spinal cord injured victims and
those with related afflictions who
have suffered and been handicap
ped for so many years. The pro
gram may be the beginning of the
end of lifetime paralysis.
Several cure research con
ferences have been held and the
1987 International Convention at 1
which sixteen (16) researchers
will be speaking will be held in ;
Seattle, Washington, July 23-24, in \
the Red Lion Inn.
I feel we have many people who ]
are either a victim, have a
relative, a friend, or are just plain
interested that may not be aware
rf this very worthwhile organiza
tion. I believe the paralyzed need
:o know of the advances being
nade in cure research. A
vheelchair is a lonely place if you
;hink no one cares. For those who
ire interested and concerned,
alease write Spinal Cord Society,
f*.0. Box 69, Minneapolis, Minne- '
iota 55445. Also, you may call
218) 739-5252 or (218) 739-5261.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Julia Howard, President
Piedmont Chapter
Graham, N.C.

W-4 OR W-4A?
(You must file one or the other)
Employees, you now have a choice. You can file either the new four
page W-4 tax withholding term or the new two-page W-4A form. The shorter
withholding form was designed by the IRS after the Service was widely
criticized for the length and complexity of the four-page W-4. The simpler
W-4A forms should be received by employers sometime In April.
If you’ve already filed the longer W-4 with your employer, you’ve fulfill
ed your obligation. If you haven’t, you have until October 1,1987, to file
one or the other of the new W-4s.
How do you decide which term to use? The IRS indicates that If your
affairs are simple, you can use the W-4A, However, the form's simplicity
is likely to result In overwithholding. (The excess will be refunded to you
when you file your 1987 tax return.)
If your affairs are more complex, you will get your withholding closer
to your actual liability by filling out the longer W-4. That includes working
couples, taxpayers with substantial non-wage Income, and those with many
deductions and credits.
Though the deadline Is in October, you should complete a W-4 or W-4A
as soon as possible to adjust your withholding to bring it In line with re
quirements of the new tax law. Waiting until later In the year could result
in underwithholding which might expose you to underpayment penalties
Under the 1986 Tax Reform Act, you are required to prepay at least 90%
of your current year tax liability or 100% of your prior year’s tax liability
Embarrassed by the furor created by the four page W-4, the IRS has
indicated that It will not assess Interest penalties on taxpayers who make
a "good faith” attempt to accurately complete their W-4s (or W-4As) and
submit them by June 1,1987. You should keep the completed worksheet
that is a part of the form to demonstrate your "good faith" attempt if you
end up being underwithheld and subject to a penalty.
