1977 you must make full
payment when you file your
return Otherwise, you will
be charged interest on the
delinquent payment from
the date of the filing dead-

But there is a way to make
a late payment and still be
charged no interest this
year You can accomplish
this by letting Internal Reve-
nue Service figure your tax
for you.
Then you will not have to
pay the tax. and no interest
will .be charged on your
payment, until 30 days after
IRS mails you your notice of
the amount due
Since Internal Revenue
Service will compute the tax
for most unmarried persons
with incomes up to $20,000
and for most married cou-

$40,000, this situation has
now been created
You complete your own
return computing the tax
yourself. and determine that
you owe a considerable sum
if you file that return you
must make that payment, in
full, when you mail your
return
Now that you know where
you stand. you exercise your
new privilege. This time you
start with a new tax form,
complete the necessary en-
tries on your return and then
indicate that you want IRS
to compute the tax for you.
So long as all the neces-
sary information is supplied,
the return is properly signed
and it is mailed before the
April 17 deadline, you are
safe.

late filing rush it is another

give the Republican enatorial Campaign Committee the
carte blanche it sought to underwrite routine office
expenses of GOP senators without having its outlays
counted as political contributions
The committee is trying to pry open a loophole in the new
Senate ethics code’s restrictions on so-called office
accounts which many senators maintain to pay lor staff
travel, computer lists, constituent entertainmen and other
costs not covered by their official allowances
The House earlier this year abolished such slush funds
entirely, but the Senate refused to go that far Instead, it
voted to permit members to use money from their political
committees to pay for unreimbursed offices expenses
Because the code was hastily drafted, however, it
doesn't explicitly state that money put into an office
account must come only from the senator's own political
committee, where contributions and expenditures are
subject to strict limits and full public disclosure
So the Republican campaign unit tried to get the FEC to
rule that it could pick up the tab for office expenses of
Republican senators, without having the cost count against
its contribution limits And without disclosing the hand-
outs.
Nice try, fellows, but it's back to the old drawing board
The FEC says it’s up to the Senate Ethics Committee to
interpret the intent of the code provision on office
accounts.
FEC gives in
In another recent action, the FEC has removed one
major hurdle to a restaging in 1980 of the presidential
debates which the league of Women Voters sponsored last
year.
Reversing the position it adopted in 1976, the election
commission has voted to permit the league or similar
well-established, nonpartisan groups to accept contribu-
tions from business and labor groups to help defray the
costs of staging such debates
Denied such financing assistance for the Carter-Food
debates, the League went in the hole by nearly $100,000.
Southern hospitality?
President and Mrs. Carter invited nearly everyone in
Washington to a Christmas party at the White House this
year. In a burst of Southern hospitality, the First Family
threw parties for members of Congress, the diplomatic
corps, the executive protective service, the Secret Service,
the White House domestic help, the press.. .on and on and
on.
About the only folks who didn't make the list, in fact,
were the spouses of the White House staff And they are
steaming at the slight. My wife is barely speaking to me."
groaned one Carter aide
Byrd gives the word
Senate Majority Leader Robert C. Byrd has finally given
the word the Carter administration had been awaiting with
bated breath: The Panama Canal treaties will go to the
Senate floor the first week in February.
Members of the Foreign Relations Committee will make
a three-day visit to Panama just before Congress
reconvenes Jan. 19, and then plan to hold a final three days
of public hearings on the Canal pact before sending it to the
full Senate for ratification or rejection.
White House officials have said all along they would
defer to Byrd for a decision on when to bring the
controversial treaties to the Senate floor. But the majority
leader's timetable could spell trouble for Carter’s energy
program unless it can be approved in the first two weeks of
the new session.
Once the Panama Canal struggle reaches the Senate
floor, a filibuster is virtually certain to consume days, if
not weeks, making it t to impossible to conduct other
business.___________________________________________________
