Rosman Swimming Pool Has Priority —Continued From Page One the following requests: ) 'r 1. Recreation - $160,000 - Pool for Upper Tran sylvania County - All-purpose courts - Park on old tannery property - Pisgah Mills property purchase for recreational facilities 2. Public Works - $100,000 - Water System for Rosman 3. Community Im provements • $60,000 • Existing Community Center improvements 4. Acquisition of Land - $200,000 - Purchase of 8 acre downtown tract. At the conclusion of the determination of priorities, the commissioners moved on to other items of business which needed attention prior to their March 10 regular meeting. Acting City Manager Opal Hahn requested the com missioners to name members to the Brevard Board of Ad justment. This is a legal requirement since the city exercises extra-territorial jurisdiction over an area outside their city limits. It has been seven years since the city requested ap pointments to this Board and consequently the terms of all members had expired. After a brief discussion of possible appointees from the extra-territorial area, the following appointments were made: Mrs. C. E. Wilmot - 5 years Doyle Enloe - 4 years Bill Norris - 3 years Dr. Marius Wells - 2 years Harvey Smith - 1 year L. C. Case had requestec through Commission Chair man Bill Ives that the county appropriate $2,500 to assist the school board in piping the ditches at Brevard Elementary School. Commissioner John Folger questioned the need for the funds since there are several thousands of dollars of unexpended bond funds. Mr. Ives said that he had suggested this to School Board Chairman Gene Morris, but apparently they did not wish to expend bond funds on this project. The appropriation failed for lack of a motion. Olin Plans 170 Layoffs —Continued From Page One employees at Pisgah Forest. ‘We are now working on the details of the layoff. Affected employees will be notified next week and given in formation regarding unem ployment compensation, insurance, the Thrift Plan, paychecks, vacation pay, etc. “We have tried to avoid a layoff as long as possible — perhaps longer than we should. We deeply regret the need for one, but we can no longer weather this economic storm without reducing production and other costs. We sincerely hope that no further major reductions will be necessary and that business will improve soon so that everyone can be at work before very long. “You can rest assured that we will do everything we can to make that happen as soon as possible. In the meantime, I earnestly solicit the cooperation of everybody to watch costs and maintain and improve our efficiencies in order to reduce the need for more drastic cost-cutting measures.” When you think of prescriptions, think of VARNER’S, adv.

I A public ssrvics of IMS publication Tti# Advertising Council. This column of questions and answers on federal tax matters is provided by the local office of the U. S. Internal Revenue Service and is published as a public service to taxpayers. The column answers questions most frequently asked by taxpayers. Q. The union I belong to just went on strike. I’m receiv ing unemployment payments now from a fund to which I contributed. Are these pay ments taxable? A. Unemployment benefit payments you receive from a fund to which you voluntarily contribute, whether union es tablished or established as a private, nonunion fund, are income only to the extent that they exceed your payments to the fund. Q. My sister and I just started a joint savings account. Who pays the tax on the inter est on our savings? A. If two or more persons hold a savings account, bonds or other interest-producing property as joint tenants, ten ants by the entirety, or tenants in common, the interest is con sidered received by each per son to the extent that person is entitled under local law to a share of such interest. Each owner will report his or her share of such interest under the same method, whether cash or accrual, that he or she uses to report income. Q. Can I exclude the first $100 of dividends I received as a result of shares I bought in a real estate investment trust? A. No. Ordinary dividends received by shareholders of a real estate investment trust are nonqualifying dividends. They are included in the divi dends reported on line 10a of Form 1040 or 1040A, U.S. In dividual Income Tax Return. However, they do not qualify for the $100 dividend exclusion claimed on line 10b. Q. What does an IRS service center do? A. The functions of IRS service centers are to process tax returns and related docu ments and to maintain ac countability records for Inter nal Revenue taxes collected within their respective regions Typical activities include the processing, analysis, and ac counting control of income tax returns, estimated tax returns wage and excise tax returns corporation tax returns, in come information documents and mailing of income tax forms to individual taxpayers Service centers also plan, di J rect, and administer assigned Audit functions. “BABY” DOLL Participants in a Red Cross class for expectant parents in Union County now have a “baby” doll to practice bathing, holding and diapering.
