Taxpayers not paying any city or county sales tax should reduce the figure in the table by Vs. The availability of a printed table, Internal Revenue Service Document No. 5315, reflecting averagp state gon&ral salec tax payments by Illinois residents was announced this past week by E. C. Coyle, Jr., District Director of Internal Revenue Service at Chicago. "Taxpayers who itemize their deductions instead of taking the standard deduction on Form 1040 may find the table helpful in determining the amount paid for sales taxes during 1963," he said. Mr. Coyle stated that the law requires taxpayers to substantiate >any deduction claimed on their returns if requested. Ordinarily, however, thcy_(_| will not be asked to produce records to support the sales, tax deduction claimed unless it exceeds the amount shown in the table. He pointed out in this connection that the tabulated average state general sales tax payments take into account taxes paid on large household items and automobiles as well as payments of compensating general use tax on out-of-state purchases of taxable commodities. Therefore, taxpayers who wish to determine their total general sales tax payments by adding taxes paid on their major expenditures to taxes paid on their ordinary purchases should not use the figure in the table as a measure of their sales tax payments on ordinary expenditures. ASSISTANCE MOLLS DECLINE BY 2.000 IN ONE MONTH Public assistance rolls in Illinois declined by more than 2,000 persons in November, 1963. Harold O. Swank, director of the Illinois Department of Public Aid, said that the reduction was chiefly in the General Assistance and the Aid to Dependent Children programs. There were 413,257 persons on the rolls in November, a reduction of 2,201 from the October total of 415,258 and 10,082 fewer than the November 1962 total of 423,339. V Public Aid expenditures in November amounted to $22,- 329,833, compared to $22,909,- 840 in October, 1963. The expenditures for November, 1962, were $24,570,209. These totals include payments for burials, foster care for Aid to Dependent Children removed from unsuitable homes, and care for the Medically Indigent Aged in Cook County. * Following is the caseload in McHenry county: Total, all persons, 611, $28,511; old age assistance, 181, $13,768; aid to dependent children, 183, $6,- 235; blind assistance, 2, $96; disability assistance, 15, $819; general assistance, 230, $7,593. Advertise - It Pays! Treasury Gives Savings Option Federal income taxpayers were reminded by Donald J. Still, Savings Bond chairman for McHenry county, that the Treasury is again offering them the option of taking refunds in U.S. savings bonds. The savings option, first introduced last year, is in addition to the two standard options of taking tax refunds in cash or applying them to the next year's tax. "By electing to take his refund in Series E bonds," Mr. Still said, "the taxpayer holds onto his money conveniently, through a secure, rihk-free investment which pays interest at a guaranteed rate. He avoids seeing his money absorbed by household expenses, vanishing completely in day-to-day spending. And he learns what millions of other Americans have already discovered -- that U.S. savings bonds are one of the finest possible ways to save for a secure future." Taxpayers taking their 1962 refunds in savings bonds swelled theP1963 bond sales by $19.2 million and raised the number of bonds issued by 237,455. This yeai, Mr. Still said, the Treasury hopes the plan will further increase the sale of savings bonds, and encourage more citizens to develop regular savings habits.

" 1? ~ WATER SUPPLY 1 "Questionable" best describes water-supply conditions for Illinois at the beginning of the New Year, Dr. T. E.

"After more than a year of precipitation shortages, all cf our water-supply sources are lower than what is normal for this time of year," Dr. Larson said. He noted that isolated water shortages already have occurred, although these have been mostly on farms or in small communities and no problems have as yet extended to major waller-supply facilities; an emergency water for the 1.100 inmates dalia State Farm, Joseph E. Ragen, director of the Illinois Department of Public Safety, lias reported.
