YOUR INCOME TAX No. 10. A debt discovered to be worthless and charged off the books of the tax- payer for the year 19256 may be de- ducted from the gross income in com- puting the net income for that year. The return must show evidence of the manner in which the worthless- ness of the debt was discovered and that ordinary and legal means for its debts may be deducted in whole When deducted the tax- payer must be able to show with a reasonable degree of certainty the Partal deduc- tlons are allowed with respect to spe- cific debts only. A valld debt proved to be worthless may not always be a proper deduc- tlon. For example, unpald amounts representing wages, rentals or similar items ‘are not allowed as reductions unless included as gross income in the creditor’s return for the year in which the deduction is sought or in a pre- vious year. The fact that expected income was not received does not re- duce the amount of taxable income of the creditor. Unpaid loans made to needy rela- tives or friends with little or no ex- pectation that they would be repaid are not deductible, but are regarded as gifts, Blurring by frost or rain may be eliminated by the use of a cellulold window that is attached to the wind- shield of an automobile, according to the claim of the fnventor. = Fiber ‘Stroller Complete adjustable foot rest.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, March 1l.—Another obstacle was placed in the path of the proposed Nickel Plate merger, already under the ban of the Inter- state Commerce Commission, when directors of the Pere Marquette Rall-| }} way, one of the five roads involved in the unification plan, yesterday in- creased the annual dividend rate on the common shares from $4 to $6 and declared an extra dividend of $2 a share. The action insures better terms for the Pere Marquette stockholders it the merger is reconstructed on a new financial basis. Financial interests close to the Van Sweringens, however, indicated that the higher dividend policy of Pere Marquette would not be an insur- mountable barrier to the Nickel Plate plan. New leasing terms, it was said, would bo based upon actual carning power rather than dividend rates. Meanwhile the increased return on the stock will help to carry the Van Swer- ingens' holdings of about 150,000 shares or will net them a profit of geveral million dollars if the merger attempt is abandoned. 0.
