Major farm tax errors listed
COLLEGE STATION—Teias
farmers and ranchers make a
number of common mistakes each
year that cost them additional
dollarsat income tax time.
With the deadline for Tiling
farm income tax returns draw ing
near (March I), ke> management
decisions canstill help reduce the
tax load for 1972 by overcoming
some common errors, point out
Mike Sprott and Dr. Wayne
Hayenga. economists for the
Texas Agricultural Extension
Service.
They list the major income tax
mistakes made by agricultural
producersas thefollowing:
1. Letting the tax accountant do
it all. Turning your tax records
over loan "authority" may not be
the best decision. Producers
must know tax laws themselves
and must "think taxes” with
evern management decision they
make (hiring the year. Be sure the
tax accountant selected knows
farm tax lawsandthatheasks you
questions about your operations
that may affect your taxes.
2. Poor Planning. This is a
major area with far-reaching
effects.Included is the failure to
buy or sell before the end of the
year and the lack of attention to
W^juu sales juHL trade ini In
tnamni ordinary Income Into
capital gaais.
3.Failure to claim investment
credit This isalsoa reflection on
poor planning since trading an
implement loo soon will reduce
the amount of investment credit
that can be claimed. Using the 7
percent investment credit can
lighten the tax burden for many
farm and ranch operations. Many

items, when purchased new or
when bought with a farm, qualify
for investmentcredit. Items often
forgotten include tile drams,
feeding floors, paved drives,
wells, fences and gram storage
bins. Investment credit can be
carried back three years to
retrieve tax money previously
paid and may also be carried
forward seven years to save on
future taxes. Use Form I040X to
claim any rehine due for past
years.
4 Poor record keeping. Totake
full advantageot taxcredits, good
records are a must. A good
record-keeping system should
meet the needs o production
operations and tax record
requirements. Often, overhead
expenses such as publications,
insurance, electricity , telephone,
interest, repairs, and car and
pickup expenses are overlooked.
5. Failure to watch tax changes.
Tax laws and court rulings change
from year to year. And the
agricultural producer must keep
abreast of all items that may
affect his operation. Of special
importance is the Keogh Act
which provides for tax-free
one-hall of the prof it is taxed if
assets were held for six months
or more, except for certain
classes of livestock which must
be held at least 24 months.
“The time spent planning tax
strategy, especially regarding
theuse of capital gains, could be
the most profitable hours of the
year,” point out Sprott and
Hayenga.
‘Think taxes, plan taxes and
keep good records. This will
make income tax time less of a
burden and may bring a pleasant
surprise in the form of a lighter
tax load."
The economists advise
farmers and ranchers who want
additional information of filing
income tax returns to obtain a
copy of the "1972 Farmer’s Tax
Guide” which is available at any
county Extension office.

The price of beauty too of-
ten may be a bad rash or skin
irritation, and consumer ad-
vocates, Virginia Knauer for
one, have moved to do some-
thing about it.
Mrs. Knauer, special assis-
tant to President Nixon for
consumer affairs, recently
began a campaign to require
all cosmetic manufacturers in
the 86-billion-a-year industry
to label products with all
chemical ingredients.
How do those in the business
feel about labeling?
John S. Street, president of
Germaine Monteil Cos-
metiques Corp., whose com-
pany has voluntarily been ex-
perimenting with ingredient
labeling, said he is in favor
but points of “logistic prob-
lems."
“Any one item might have
to put aflofthem ™ the odt-
side of a package. '
“We have been experiment-
ing with package enclosure,
using generic names for in-
gredients, which hopefully the
consumer will understand.
"And that’s another big
problem,” said Street in a
telephone interview. “Chem-
ical names are very technical
and unfamiliar to most con-
sumers.”
At present a manufacturers
association is developing a
dictionary of generic names
for the technical names of
chemical ingredients, said
Street.
“This process has slowed us

Bornin Las Vegas, Abby grew
up in the country of Panama and
Southern California, where she
now lives in Taluca Lake, a small
village located between three
majorstudios in the middle of Los
Angeles. After graduation from
high school in Pasedena, where
she taught dancing and did
modeling, she danced in the
chorus at the Sands Hotel in Las
Vegas tosave enough money to go
to New York, where she again
worked as a model. Then it was

Abby is probably most fondly
rememberedas die feminine lead
in Jackie Cooper’s “Hennesey”
in which she played Navy nurse
Martha Hale for three years. She
then appeared as Joey Bishop's
wife on "The Joey Bishop Show”
for several seasons. Following
the Bishop Show, Miss Dalton
worked with Jonathan Winters for
two years on ’The Jonathan
Winters’ Show.” More recently
Abby was a panelist on the
daytime contestshow "Hollywood
Squares.”
Miss Dalton's work is not
limited toT.V., however. She has
done stage production; with such
actors as Tom Poston in "Plaza
Suite" and "Lovers and Other
Strangers", and Bob Crane in
"Beginners Luck". She will be
seen in "A Whale of a Tale", a
new motion picture which she
describes as a "real family
show .” It is scheduled for release
this fall, and co-stars William

WASHINGTON - A top of-
ficial of the most prestigious
private university in the na-
tional capital area has spoken
out loudly in behalf of what he
calls members of "a new de-
prived group" — the college-
age sons and daughters of
parents whose incomes range
between $135 and (350 a week.
The Rev. Edmund G. Ryan,
executive vice president of
Georgetown University, con-
tended that a campaign to in-
form the public of “discrimi-
nation against the middle
class" in the matter of student
financial aid is urgently
needed.
“The (federal and state)
needs tests’ usually award
aid to families with less than
85,000 or $7,000 income,” he
pointed out. “But what about
families with income from
$7,000 to $18,000 with three or
four children of college age,
with mortgaged homes, in-
stallment plan furniture and
high taxes?
“Their sons and daughters
can't pay the tuition bill at
private colleges and universi-
ties. Their options are limited.
They are moderately affluent
but are a new deprived group.
"What is happening, of
course, is that more and more

ing forced by circumstances
to attend public colleges — to

of College Management
magazine, the Jesuit adminis-

The message must reach
the legislators in Washington
and in the state capitals," he
asserted. “Similarly the citi-
zens of the United States must
learn how much they subsi-
dize each undergraduate,
graduate and professional
student at public college and
university."
Here he noted that the City
University of New York (for-
merly CCNY) still charges no
tuition although its faculty
salaries are at the top of the
scale in America.
"It’s entire budget comes
out of the taxpayers’ pock-
ets," he said.
Father Ryan believes that
private colleges and universi-
ties are on “the endangered
species list” for the 1970b, at
least. Along with the policy of
awarding financial aid ac-
cording to "need,” he gave
these reasons:
The continuing financial
crisis in higher education; the
shift in percentages of enroll-
ments from the private to the
public sector; the dramatic
decline in the birthrate and
the ever-widening tuition dif-
ferential between private and
public colleges and universi-
ties.
The financial crisis hit the
nation’s campuses in the 1917-
M academic year. While the
federal government began
V^fiam war expenditures
and inflation, student disrup-
tions shocked alumni and
business donors. Many of the
latter closed their check-
books.
Father Ryan quoted a study
which predicted that, if the
deficit situation in private
higher education continued
for another decade. 365 insti-
tutions, about half those in
existence, would be bankrupt
by 1981.
Enrollment in public and
private colleges has shifted

Father Ryan noted that the
Carnegie Commission on
Higher Education, in its most
recent report, assigned the
greatest blame for the finan-
cial bind “to increasing the
major cost of education
(faculty salaries) without a
concomitant increase in pro-
ductivity,” the faculty work
load computed in terms of the
number of courses and stu-
dents taught.
“Paradoxically, the work
load dropped as salaries
rose," the Georgetown Jesuit
said. “The average number of
courses taught annually by a
faculty member decreased by
one during the 1960s.
“The faculty must be con-
vinced that assumption of
greater work load is linked to
the survival of private higher
education.”
The Carnegie Commission
had two other noteworthy rec-
ommendations: a moratori-
um on the opening of new doc-
toral programs, in the wake of
a reported ghit of doctorates,
