=FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 10 A. M.=
other officials of the Georgia E
MC are bing invited to the camp
to take part in ground-breaking
ceremonies for the first cottage.
By adding eight new cottages
and remodeling old ones, the
camp capacity will be increased
to approximately 500. Plans are
to complete the improvements
during the summer of 1958.
Mr. Bowdoin says his commit

in the camp development. He
terms this “an opportunity to
share in the future by investing
in youth," The camp annually
offers leadership training to
more than 5,000 FFA and FHA
members.

Income Tax Cantata
Is Not Sweet Music
While at least two American
composers have written works
about the Federal income tax,
one of them setting several para
graphs of the instruction book
as a cantata, the average tax
payer probably does not regard
news about the annual obliga
tion as music to his ears.
Still, according to District Di
rec Paul Cobb of the Atlanta of
fice of the Internal Revenue Ser
vice, it's a situation where some
1.000.000 residents of Georgia
must now face the music, and
pay up to the tune of an estimat
ed $5.00.000.000 (their 1956 income
taxes owed to Uncle Sam). April
15 is again the deadline.
Nothing much in the elements
of the tax setup has changed,
Mr. Cobb declares. Forms have
been brightened and tightened,
instructions systematized and
considerably clarified, but the
tax percentages are still the same
as for the last two years, as are
the requirements for filing.
Those under 65 who had a
gross income of S6OO or more dur
ing 1956 must file. If over 65.

the income base for filing rises
to $1,200. In joint filings, where
one person is under, the other
over 65, and for questions of
birthdays during the year, the
instruction booklet is clear and
detailed, Mr. Cobb says. If both
are over 65, the base income be
comes $2,400 before filing is re
quired.
Self - employed individuals
whose net earnings were S4OO or
more must file. Persons whose
incomes were less than S6OO —
$1,200 for those 65 or over —
should file quickly to obtain re
funds. There are believed to be
several thousand students who
worked during vacation or on
week ends or before or after
school to whom this would very
likely apply.
The form and instruction book
let, read together, should enable
most taxpayers to prepare their
own returns without too much
difficulty, Mr. Cobb said. Those
who cannot solve problems in
their computations should call
the nearest Internal Revenue of
fice for information.
