ITS PBO NEW YORK #—Tax relief for;the consumer will spend the mon-|FOUR room, ail furnished house . business first or for individuals— which would give the economy the biggest boost? Industry is bending congressional ears just now, seeking more liberal depreciation rates—something the average citizen may be a little) hazy about. Industry holds that this would spur business and cre- ate jobs. The changeswould apply to new farm buildings and equipment, and pew rental housing, as well as to new factories and machinery, and commercial and industria] build- ings. Individuais would like a cut in al income tax payments. So would William McChesney Martin Jr., head of the Federal Reserve System, in all probability. | But he tells congressmen: “If you increase the money consumers heve to spend through raising tax exemptions ~om personal income | THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Today's Mendy, February 8, 1954, Business Mirror By Sam Dawson ey.” Many a citizen, on the contrary, may be quite sure that he'll have lt spend any money saved him on |taxes—and the merchants to whom! jhe is in debt might, be interested lin seeing the color of that mouey. | But most businessmen will go |along with Martin’s belief that at |this time of recession worries the emphasis should be on the pro- duction side. Here is how businessmen figure that liberalization of depreciation| rates would spur production and create or save jobs: The present practice in reckon- ing income tax returns is for busi- nessmen to charge off the cost of plant and equipment over the esti- mated life of the property. The treasury has a lot of rules of thumb for this. If you buy a small cutting tool, say, and its life expectancy is one year, you set up a depreciation reserve for it and charge it off) taxes, there is no guarantee that Queen And Duke Elude Admirers For Barge Trip SYDNEY, Australia — Queen Elizabeth 11 and the Duke of Edin- burgh slipped out a side entrance to Government House for a day off from official engagements to- day. Only a handful of their en- thusiastic Australian public caught up with them. The royal couple drove to the harbor and took’ a barge trip to a palatial private home on the waterfront before lunch, Hundreds meanwhile milled about the main entrance to Government House or followed rumors about the pair’s Plans. for their holiday. The summer heat took a heavy toll among the spectators around the cathedral where the Queen at- tended services yesterday. Nine hundred persons including many children collapsed and were given des aid in the cathedral chapter use, The Veterans Corner Here are authoritative answers| from the Veterans Administration -to four questions of interest to rg servigemen and their fami- Q. I have a permanent National Service Life Insurance policy. Would it be possible for me to change to a term policy? A. No, Permanent plan policies May not be exchanged for term Policies, under the law. However, NSLI term policies may be con- verted to permanent plans. Q. I want to take medical intern- ship training under the Korean GI! Bill. Does VA consider it as on-the- job training or as classroom train- ing, for purposés of the monthly al- lowance? A.. Medical internship is consid- ered as full-time institutional class- Toom trainifig, for “GI allowance purposes. But the training must be approved by the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals of bad American Medical Associa Q. I served continuously in the armed forces, without a break, Since 1940, and I am just now get-: ting my discharge. Would I be al- lowed to take the maximum of four years of training under the World War II GI Bill? A. No. The reason is that the World War II GI training program, for nearly all veterans, comes to an end on July 25, 1956—about two, \ i completely as a deductible expense item in the year you buy it. Next year you tap the depreciation re- serve for the money to buy a new tool. Some machinery is expected to be 25 years, and treated accord- ingly. If you build an apartment house, the treasury usually rules that it should last 50 years, and deprecia- tion allowance is spread over 50 years, If you build a water supply dam the treasury figures it should be good for 150 years—and your heirs and assigns will be charging that one off for a long time. But businessmen contend that the modern world is much too speedy for these old rules, They say that often nowadays a machine becomes obsolete years before it would wear out. Or shifting con- sumer tastes call for a new ma-| chine to make a different product! currently striking the public fan- ¢ ry. They want the treasury to change depreciation rates so that they can machine or plant in its early years before it may become outdated. They argue thaf such a change would spur’ manufacturers to put in new and more efficient ma- chines now, would encourage shop- keepers to modernize now; would induce farmers to get new labor- saving equipment now. “All of this,” as President Ei- senhower points out, “means many more jobs.” Installing new and more efficient machines, the Northern Trust Co., of Chicago points out, “creates overcapacity but the overcapacity is in the older, obsolete plant.” And the Chase National Bank of! New York says in its quarterly review that “There is growing evi- dence that the need for equipment today is greater than in the past.” But if industry writes off the cost of new equipment at a faster rate, is that “‘a gift to business?” Tax lawyers say it isn’t. You can charge off depreciation only once, What is saved in the early years is offset by tax increases in the later years—if you're still using that plant or machine.
