pressions and comparing Eth
iopia’s ’prop-ram with W. A.
M. Y., Shimelis Concluded
that wh’le American projects
have more money to work
wi'h. Ethiopia’s program, in
contrast to America’s, does
not denend on annual anoro
priat'ons from the legislative
that both American and
Ethiooian programs depend
on the involvement of indi
vidual communities- and,
that Ethiopian pro-rams are
by their nature more firmly
bas°d on lonp-mnsre planning.
The Haile Se'assie Founda
tion is personally supervised
by the Emneror, and plans
are now being made for a
large expansion of the pro
gram when Ethiopia enters
its third five-year plan .in
1968.

Urged To Type

GREENSBORO, N. C. •
Employers are urged to use
typewrlctTs or other business
machines in preparing Forms
941, the quarterly return for
reporting income tax with
holding and social security
taxes of employees, J. E.
Wall, District Director of In
ternal Revenue for North
Carolina, said today.
The reason for this request
Is that the Social Security
Administration is using an op
tical character recognition
machine to transfer wage in
formation from the forms 941
into their electronic data pro
cessing system. Th : s “read
ing” machine, which will pro
vide improved service to the
public, cannot yet read hand
writing, handprinting, or col

Handwritten returns will
be accepted by the IRS, how
ever, Mr. Wall explained.
