'72 Tax Return May Claim '73 Flooding t Senator Jack Schaffer (Republican, Cary) has released information which will be helpful to those persons living in areas where recent floods have damaged their property and have disrupted their lives. "Any 1973 disaster area flood damage is deductible on your 1972 tax return. Quick cash refunds will be available to many taxpayers hard hit by the recent floods. Normally, a casualty loss is deductible for the year in which the loss oc­ curred, but a special relief provision allows deduction on your 1972 return for a casualty like flood damage sustained in 1973. The privilege is alftw^pd to casualty victims in a <$Saster a r e a , s o p r o c l a i m e d t h e President. "If you are eligible, but filed your return before the flood hit or without realizing that such fast tax relief was available, you can file an amended return on form 1040-X. In addition to basic-information as to the nature of the property and amount of loss, state the date of the disaster and the place where the damaged property is located. For fast handling, write "Disaster Area Loss" on the form., "In the case of non-business property, $100 must be sub­ tracted from the amount of the loss in figuring the deduction With business property, it is all deductible. Generally, cleaning costs can be included in storm disaster. "Although a taxpayer sustaining a 1973 disaster area casualty loss can deduct it on his 1972 return, he does not have to. He remains free to deduct it instead on his return for 1973 to be filed early next year." . > • Legal Notice NOTICE Public Notice is hereby given that on April 18, A.D. 1973, a certificate was filed in the Office of the County Clerk of McHenry County, Illinois, setting forth the names and post-office addresses of all of the persons owning, conducting and transacting' the business known as SMALL HAULING CO., located at 8916 Oriole Tr., Wonder Lake, Illinois 60097.
