U.S.P. Reg. 29' This is the first of a series of articles prepared by the Illinois Society of Certified Public Accountants offering advice on filing 1971 federal ihcome tax returns. Taxpayers preparing to file their 1971 federal income tax returns will find that the most significant changes from last year are in the treatment of exemptions and deductions, according to David J. Bram- son, chairman of the taxation committee of the Illinois CPA society. An exemption is the amount that can be subtracted from adjusted gross income for each of the taxpayer's qualifying dependents, including himself. On 1971 returns, Bramson reports, $675 may be taken for each exemption - up from $625 last year. Persons over 65 are allowed an additional exemp tion of $675. Blind individuals of whatever age are allowed a special exemption of the same amoung for blindness. (The personal exemption increases to $750 in 1972.) A deduction is an expense that falls into one of several categories which the law permits to be subtracted in whole or in part before arriving at taxable income. Some major categories or itemized deductions for individuals are taxes, interest, medical and time you expect to arrive at the hall and the reserved tables will be ready and waiting. dental costs, charitable con tributions, and casualty losses (fire, theft, etc.). The CPA official says that instead of itemizing deductions many taxpayers, especially those in the middle to lower brackets, may find it ad vantageous to take the stan dard deduction of 13 percent of adjusted gross income or $1500, whichever is less. This is a sharp rise from the 10 percent- $1,000 standard deduction limitation of last year. For taxpayers with adjusted gross income of $10,000 or less, this change is automatically figured in the tax tables. Bramson expects the change to cause millions of additional taxpayers to claim the stan dard deduction, rather than itemizing, and says there should be a further trend in that direction next year, when the standard deduction goes to 15 percent-$2,000. For low-income families there is a minimum standard allowance which, together with the personal exemption, means a single person with income of not more than $1725, and couples filing jointly and with income of not more than $2,400, will have to pay no federal income taxes at all. "Although the low-income allowance was intended primarily to benefit families at or below the poverty level, it applies also to dependent members of more affluent families," Bramson says. Thus, a taxpayer's child can have an income of up to $1725 and owe no taxes, while still being claimed at an exemption if the parent has provided more. than half the child's support. This provision has been modified for years after 1971. For years beginning with 1972, one major new deduction . is available to families in which both husband and wife work or - there is only one employable adult. Such taxpayers may deduct up to $400 a month of the costs of the care of children or invalids, if incurred so that the taxpayer may be gainfully employed, according to the CPA official. There are. limitations on this deduction, and it would be well to consult a qualified tax authority. Bramson warns that some taxpayers will be mistaken if they assume that the bigger personal exemption and standard deduction will result in large tax refunds. One reason why Congress passed the increases, he says, was to correct a defect in the withholding tables that caused too little to be withheld from the pay envelopes of millions of workers. These taxpayers -- especially in families where both husband and wife work - would have faced sizeable tax bills on April 15 - up to several hundred dollars in some cases: For most individuals the new law will not bring any wind falls, but should cause taxes withheld to balance more closely the tax obligations, in his opinion. Inaugurate New Three-Year Navy Enlistments ML SEEDS (Vegetable & Flower) Reg. 25' 2/ 1 I K Limit 4 / X / TOWNSQUARE OFFERING - Two more showings of the coiuedy "Cactus Flower" will be pressented by the Townsquare Players Friday and Saturday evenings, March 17-18, at the Wood stock Opera House.

New three-year enlistment programs have been an nounced by the U.S. Navy's R e c r u i t i n g C o m m a n d Headquarters in Washington, DC. Two enlistment options, titled the "Seafarer" and "Airman" programs are designed specifically for the young man who desires to serve in the challenging environment of the sea, without incurring the longer active duty commitment imposed by attendance at an advanced training school. The programs can guarantee duty with one of the Navy's seasgoing units, whether that be a guided-missile destroyer operating in the Pacific ocean, or a sophisticated aircraft squadron embarked on an aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean Sea. The Navy has openings in March for 2,279 men in the Seafarer program and 1,456 in the Airman program. Additional information on the Seafarer and Airman programs is available from Navy Recruiter Bill Andriot at 144 Washington street, Woodstock, 338-4076.
