The program making arnmuni
|
tion available to farmers was
worked out with WPB by the *
War Food Administration ar.d is C
designed to give farmers and
livestock raisers rifle cartridges r
and shotgun shells for protection C
of their crops and livescock
against predatory animals and '
birds, Mr. Hawkins said.
"The War Food Administration
has been concerned for some time
«
a'wrot the shortage of ammunition
for controlling predatory animalj
and birds," he declared. "Be-
cause of the enormous demand ol
the millitary forces for arnmuni- .
tion, less than three percent of a '
normal supply has been available
to civilians. This new program
is designed to make available (
small quantities of ammunition '
through regular trade channels." '
. The supplemental allotment ai- '
lows farmers to purchase 50 .22 1
calibre rim fire rifle cartridges, '
20 center fire rifle catriilge3, and 1
25 shotgun shells, provided they '
secure these amounts priir to Oc '
tober 1, or their written orders
are in dealers' hands by that '
date. Between September 30 and *
November 16 persons, except '
those who have received or o-der-
C
ed the farmers' special quota
may purchase similar amounts of '
ammunition. It is provided in
the order, however, that requests
filed during the period September
30 to November 16 will not be
filled until all requests from far
(
mers for their regular fourth
■quarter have been met.

In placing or lcr« fot special
ammunition, farmers will be re-1
quired to sign a certificate stat
ing that the ammunition wanted
to for use on their own farms by j
themselves or their tenants, thai
they are the only persons auth i
criaed to purchase th® special
quota for the farm, that the spe
cial quota has not been ordered
previously, and that the ammuni
tion will not be used for sale or
as a gift. A previous order ol
WPB allows farmers to purchase
100 .22 calibre cartridges, 40
center fire cartridges, and 25
shotgun shells during any calen
dar quarter by executing a simi
lar certificate. • •
"This special quota, 'Mr. Haw
kins pointed out, "is in addi
tion to the quarterly allotments; (
>f ammunition to farmers, and (
orders for regular allotments for f
the fourth quarter shuld be plac

INFORMATION ON j 1
INCOME TAX
In our column last week we
mentioned the fact that there
were two methods fcr comput.nq
the estimated Income and Victory
tax for 1943: (1.) An exact com
putation; (2.) A short computa
tion, according to tables prepared
by the Treasury.
The Short Computation.
A taxpayer using this metho.l
makes use of two forms, provid
ed by the Revenue Department
(form 1040 ES) and (the work
sheet for this form.)
The taxpayer determines his
estimated total normal tax, sur
tax, and net Victory Tax from a \
table appearing on the work sheet.
The tax so computed makes sr i
arbitrary allowance for the earn
ed income credit and for deduc
tion of the average taxpayer. For
this reason, the amount deducted
in the computation for personal
exemption and credit for depend
ence is greater than the a m o unt
which will be deducted on the
March, 1944, return.
Worksheet.
I
(a.) Item I: Taxpayer enters
here his total expected gross in
come from all sources, (b.) Item
2: Here taxpayer subtracts the
personal exemption ($560.00, if
single; $1340 if married or head
of a family; $390 for each de
pendeht; husband and wife filing
separate declarations may divide
the $1340 in any proportion). On
the March return, however, he
I
will subtract only SSOO if single;
SI2OO if married, etc., for his ex
|
emption. Note that he does not
subtract any deduction. (c.)j
Item 4: From the table appear;
on the work sheet, he determines
the amount of the estimated tax |
to be entered in item 4. Note
that this does not include the Vie
try Tax. (d.) Item 7: The amount
of item 1 less $624.00 (a husband:
and wife filing a joint declaration:
may deduct a Victory Tax ex
emption of $1248 on line 5 un
less the income included in line
|
1 of one spouse is less than $624,
in which case the total exemption
of both spouses is limited to $624 |
plus the income included in line ]
lof such spouse) having been '
shown on line 5, and 3 percent of |
this amount having been shown |
on line 6 as the Victory Tax the
jthe totals of item 4 and 6 are
shown on fine 7 as the total Vic
ory and Income Tax due How
ever, this; amount must first be
compared with the tax shown on
the 1942 return, and the larger
of the two entered on line 1 ol
