LeBaube, IRS Director for North Carolina said today. For qualified political contributions, the tax law permits an itemized deduc tion of up to $50 ($100 on a joint return) or a credit that will reduce your tax by one-half of the contribution up to $12.50 ($25.00 on a joint return). ■'Taxpayers can claim the credit even if they take the standard deduction,”' Mr. LeBaube said. ‘‘How ever, to claim a deduction for a campaign contribu tion, all deductions must be itemized.” Taxpayers should keep records such as a written receipt or a canceled check to substantiate the deduc tion. deadldc THE DEADLINb for newH an^ pictures to appear in the TRIBUNAIL AID is THURSDAY NOON.

This determination was made “easy” in that the majority of the projects endorsed were first subjected to a rigorous review by the Citizens Advisory Committee and were later submitted to Council in the form of recommendations. Though Council endorsed the CD plan with few changes. Mayor Paul Clapp and Councilman Arnold Koonce indicated they had reservations about some projects to be funded and they requested that their opposition be recorded. In a related matter, Jim Pennington, coordinator of federal programs, informed Council that if changes are deemed necessary they could be made no later than April 11, 1975, the date the CD plan is to be submitted to HUD. !fS * * Mrs. Eva B.

Burford and others, at a recent City Council meeting, voiced their opposition to using Community Development to increase the value of property of absentee landlords who have not done their duty.

(KERNERSVILLE) representatives of the Winston-Salem Board of Alderman and the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners met with Mayor Roger P. Swisher and others from Kernersville to discuss possible consolidation of Winston-Salem and Kernersville. Mayor Swisher felt that Kernersville could gain very little from the consolidation and stated that he had seen nothing that would offer the town residents a better product. Aldermen C.C. Ross and Richard N. Davis, who for the most part represented the Black community of Winston-Salem, expressed a fear of losing representation and/or identity in a consolidated government. 4: * A librarian is being sought for the Paddison Memorial Library.

Students and faculty members are taking active roles in the profes sional matliematics associ ations and are serving as consultants for local math ematics programs. Among the most recent achievements of the de partment was accomplished by a team of students and faculty who submitted solutions to three compli cated mathematical prob lems. The problem solu tions were printed in the January issue of the American Mathematical Monthly. The problems originally appeared in the magazine in late 1973 and early 1974. Gloria Phillips, a soph omore from Kinston, N.C. and Nannette Lowe, a sophomore from Kerners ville, N.C., worked under the guidance of Dr. James Alonso to solve the problem dealing with polynomial quotients. Reba Turner, a senior from Atlanta, Geor gia and Cynthia Hardy, a 1974 graduate from Suit- * YOU AMD YOUR SMALL CHILD NOT A RAGGEDY DOLL Dear Dr. Esse: I have neighbors who are, not wilful child-beaters — but they are unknowingly close to it in their roughness. Once I mentioned it to them. They became so furious at my interference, that I’ve done nothing about it since. They have two children. One is a girl under 2 years, and the other is a boy of 4. I’ve seen the mother puU the little girl suddenly by the arm so you would think it might come out of the shoulder socket. She would drag the child into the house by this one arm. I’ve seen the father in horseplay with his son in their backyard. He’d throw him around, wrestle, and box so hard — you’d think he had a grown man opposite him. I’m not downgrading the parents as cruel. They love their children and I doubt they even spank them. But they don’t realize they can harm them accidentally. Once the girl had to be taken to the doctor because of pain in her elbow and had to wear a cast for a few weeks. I believe this is a common problem and that parents may not be aware that horseplay and unnecessary roughness may be harmful. ~ Mrs. Z. COMMENT: You are not exaggerating, Mrs. Z. Many helpless children are victimized by otherwise kindly parents. Grownups don’t seem to reahze that though young children are tough and resilient, they are stUl susceptible to iiyury when mishandled. I have observed a mother, walking along the street with a youngster, suddenly yank at her child’s arm, or pull up on the little arm when the mother wanted the child on a porch or sidewalk. I have often wondered why more kids don’t grow up with broken or sprained upper appendages. Nevertheless, a large number do actually get what is known as a “puUed elbow.” Any sudden, forceful jerk on the arm of a child can procfuce a dislocation of the elbow joint. Too often the condition is overlooked and treated as an ordinary sprain. But if the smaU patient still continues to be fretful and in evident discomfort, he should be taken to the doctor. Reduction of the dislocation is relatively simple. But prevention is even simpler than cure. As you well describe, Mrs. Z., horseplay between father and child may often lead to trouble, too. Normal “horseplay” is all right, but when it gets rough, better call in a referee. Here’s a suggestion to mothers: Don’t lift your children by one arm as if they were raggedy doUs. And to fathers: Keep remembering that the 3- to 4-year-old fellow you’re roughing up in mock athletics is still a defenseless baby. Little boys and girls may be as cute as dolls, but don’t be misled. They require gentle treatment, ((c) 1974, McNaught Syndicate, Inc.) land, Md. solved two problems, one involving cube roots modulon (a form of positive integer). This particular problem received special recognition because the result presented was more general than expected to solve such a problem. Other involvements on the part of the faculty included the participation of Dr. Alonso in the joint sessions of the Mathema tical Association of America and the American Mathe matical Society which met in Washington, D.C. recently. Ray Treadway, another member of the Mathe matics Department, is serving as mathematics consultant for New Garden Friends School in the Guilford area. 'fOUTfiCC 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 ansvyers questions most frequently asked by taxpayers. Q. What is the reason for my indicating the county where I live on my tax return? A. Under a law known as Revenue Sharing, a portion of the tax money collected by the Federal Government is re turned to the states and cities. The amount of money your locality receives is based on information you supply on your Federal income tax re turn. So it’s important for you to fill in the County of Residence block on the front of your return. To complete: this block, print or type the full name of the county (par ish in Louisiana; organized borough in Alaska) in which you live. The instructions for both 1040 and 1040A forms explain how to fill in the block if you don’t live in a county, parish or borough. Q. What is the rate for ex emptions for myself and my family this year? A. The personal exemption for 1974 is $750. If you file a joint return, you may also claim a $750 exemption for your spouse. Exemptions of the same amount for age and blindness are available for both of you if you qualify. Furthermore, you are entitled to an exemption of $750 for each person who qualified in 1974 as your dependent For more information on exemp tion.? and dependents, consult IRS Publication 501, “Your Exemptions and Exemptions for Dependents.” It’s available free at all IRS offices. Q. My 1#73 tax return was more complicated than usu^l to fill out, so I decided to use a return preparer. Can I duct the charges that I paid in 1974 for preparation of my 1973 return? A. Yes. The cost\ of tax counsel and assistance is a deductible expense, and is re ported on Schedule A of Form 1040 as a miscellaneous ex. pens?. Q. Tm a member of the Armed Forces, and am trans ferring to a new assignment in the Orient. I have received an allowance for the transfer. Is this money taxable? A. It depends on the reason for the allowance. If it is a dislocation allowance pai4 upon transfer from one post of duty to another it is taxable. But if it is a housing and cost- of-living allowance or a fam ily separation allowance, it is excludable from your gross in come.
