The Democrats "Letter to the Editor: "Many people have £sked tne'vdiat's all the publicity about the Democrats not getting *along?'« - "Well it is simply this,,, a £roup of persons attempted to ™le a slate for township offices using th£ name of a major political party, in the case Democratic, without following the statutes covering this procedure. Larry Huck, Lynn Stuart, and myself objected to this flagrant disregard of the latf Arid the electoral . boara unanimously upheld our objections. -a "Let us keep politics out of ^ir local government and select the best man for the office. "Sincerely, "William J. Bolger" Your Income The shorter two-page- Form 1O40W provided for 1960 federal income tax filing was explained oy Harold R. All, director of Internal Revenue for the Chicago district. Mr! All .said the return can be used by any individual whose income consisted of salary and - wages, regardless of amount, and not more than $200 income from interest and dividends. Husband and wife whose combined income meets these tests may file a joint return on Form 1G40W, he said. He added: "The two-page form is designed to allow taxpayers in any income eatagory the benefits of (1) 'head of household' or 'surviving spouse* status; 02) sick pay exclusion (3) dividends received credit; (4) estimated tax payment credit, and (5) itemizing deductions for contributions, interest payments, medicnl expenses, and the like. He said taxpayers with dividend ahd interest income fn excess of $200, or with any other income such as capital gains, retirement income, rents, royalties, business or professional income, etc., must still file on regular Form 1040. "If you Have any other questions about your federal income return, telephone your local Internal Revenue office" Mr. All said. HOLD EMERGENCY PLAH SESSION IN THIS AREA tWalter E. Austin, chairman the McHenry county emergency planning committee, has just returned from a special area meeting at Ottawa, 111. Members of the stat gency planning commi attended. During the meeting . J. A. Ewing, chairman of the state emergency planning committee, pointed out the importance emergency planning. He emphasized that it is in each county and in each f*ural community that food production must be maintained and emergency actions carried out under direction from state and national leadership. The McHenry county emergency planning committee has been organized by the U. S. Department of .Agriculture,, as fi part of the national plan for ivil defense and defense mobilization. Committee members are employees of various federal agricultural agencies. They are carrying out emergency planning as part of their regular duties so as to have a "built-in readiness" should any emergency occur. FALL OF ROME: Byzan- $um (Constantinople), Split (Dalmatia), Ravenna and Lutetia, (Italy) were seats of government of the Roman Empire, long before the Empire fell. Federal income taxpayers, faced at tax time with large additional payments to satisfy their indebtedness to Uncle S&fi, because of uftdfer-withholding, have a way out in future years, according--to Harold R. All, Chicago district director of the internal Revenue Service. Additional sums may be added to/f&ses already being wlthie employer in cases id, Mr. AH said. here ire various ways of ig this " he added. "If a Taxpayer .finds himself owing an additional $100 or more of tax at year's end, he may reduce the number of exemptions or dependency claimed by one or more, or he may claim zero exemptions for withholding purposes. "This will automatically increase his withheld tax payments over the year by $120 or more without affectingyhis right to claim these exemptions when he fills out his return. "Taxpayers who find themselves owing lesser sums pan, in most instances, arrange with their paymasters or disbursing offices to increase their withholding $2 or $3 per pay period or whatever approximate sum may be required to even out the tax owed." In any event, Mr. All said, consulting the payroll office will probably enable the taxpayer to work out a withholding plan most suitable to his situation. be paid out as rapidly as pessible to stimulate the nation's economy. Harold R. All, district director of Internal Revenue for the Chicago area, announced that his office is prepared to handle refunds promptly. Mr. All further stated that in 1961 more than $183,000,000 will be refunded to about 1,600,000 taxpayers in the Chicago district of Internal Revenue. He said that normally refund returns filed now will be processed and paid in about, five weeks. Howevear, refunds to approximately 80,000 taxpayers will require an audit before payment and, therefore, cannot be issued within five weeks. Taxpayers involved will be notified by mail that their return will be audited. Returns requiring an audit are those that involve; problems such as: 1. Failure to properly itemize deductions claimed. 2. Claiming expenditures as deductions which are not allowable; and. 3. Questionable- or improper exemptions claimed by the taxpayer. Other common errors that slow do\Vn processing and delay refunds are: a 1. Failure to sign return. (Both husband and wife must sigh a joint return) 2. Failure to indicate complete or correct mailing address. 3. Failure to show wages an^ withholding tax on the return. 4. Failure to list dependents on return. Mr; All stated that a by taxpayers will help receive their refunds earHi Pag# Thvet Andrew Carniege earned $1.25 per week on his first job --and was elated when he was promoted to a job paying $i.80 per week.

As proof jt points to the fact that the time spent by the average visitor in inspecting the Museum's many exhibits in 1960 was 3 hours and 12 minutes, a big step forward from the 55-minute stay of its average visitor in 1940, only twenty years ago. Also stating that this growing scientific interest seemingly covers all ranges of American life, the Museum reports that 34 per cent of its 2,636,704 visitors in 1960 were adult males,. another 34 per cent were adult females, and the remaining 32 per cent, a combination of both sexes under 21 years of age.
