|| Trim Improves Interior
i One of the best to
very ways
improve the general appearance
of the interior of an old house is
to replace the trim. In most cases
the trim on windows and doors
has been in the house since its
construction, „ covered
countless coats of paint. Trim is
easily removable, and can be re
placed with new material at lit
tle cost. Improving the interior
without changing the trim is like
wearing a celluloid collar with a
new fall suit.

Upon the recommendation
Commissioner of Labor Ben T.
sa tj on contributions on salaries of
over $3,000.00 has been suspend
ed by Governor E. D. Rivers pend
ing act j on 0 f the legislature.
The executive proclamation,
among other things, suspended
payment of contributions on wag
es of newsboys who are under
eighteen years of age; insurance
agents whose sole compensation
is commissions; dismissal wages
which employers are not
to make and casual labor not in
the course of an employer’s trade
or business.
The effect of the order, Com
missioner Huiet said, will enable
Georgia employers to compete
equally with employers of other
states which have taken similar
action, notably Alabama, South
Carolina and Tennessee.
Suspension of the taxes, Com-

to workers protected by the law.
He added that it was the intent
of the Legislature to make the
Georgia law comply with the Fed
eral Social Security Act and that
the Congress in August of last
year amended the Act to exempt
payment of contributions on sal
aries of over $3,000.00.
The . Commissioner explained
that if a person is being paid, for
example $5,000.00 a year the Bu

Labor will collect tax on $3,000.00
and suspend collection pending
