Income Tax
Information
q.—I got a letter from the
aservice center about my return.
Should I send the information
requested to the service center
•or the district office?
A.—In most cases, your re
ply should be sent to the ser
vice center. If the letter does
not indicate where the informa
tion should be sent then look
at the top of the notice. Send
your reply to the office listed
on the letterhead. If a return
envelope was sent too, it should
be used for your reply.
Q.—I’ve been asked to send
aome tax records in to back up
a deduction I claimed on last
year’s return. Can I bring them
in, rather than mail them?
A.—Yes, you may. However,
most taxpayers prefer the con
venience of handling the matter
by mail instead of in person.
To guard against loss of your
records, photostats or other
copies can be submitted so that
originals are not sent through
the mails.
Q.—Who has to pay self-em
ployment tax?
A.—This tax applies mainly
to those who work for them-
aelves rather than for an em
ployer. Anyone engaged in
trade, business or profession
for himself is liable.
Exceptions to this are pub
lic officials, clergymen and
Christian Science practitioners,
non-resident aliens, and mem
bers of certain religious sects
opposed to the acceptance of
any private or public insuranca
(including Social Security ben
efits). They do not have to pay
this tax. Clergymen and Christ
ian Science practitioners may
elect, however, to pay the tax
and be covered by Social Sec
urity.
Q.—How much do you take
when a person hits a big pay
off at the race track?
A.—In most cases, the gov
ernment does not actually with
hold when the tickets are cash
ed at the track. What happens
is that the track obtains iden
tification of the winner, in
cluding Social Security num
ber, before payment is made.
The information on track
winnings is then handled like
dividend and interest payments.
The payer, in this case the rac^
track, files an information re
turn with IRS showing the
amount paid and the name and
social security number of the
taxpayer. This information can
then be compared with what
the taxpayer reports on his
return.
The winner often is required
to file a declaration of estimat
ed tax since the winnings are
not subject to tax withholding.
Only when the winner is a non
resident alien is the track re
quired to withhold on the win
nings.
Q.—I’m paying Social Sec
urity tax on cash tips I re
ceive. Is my boss matching this
as he does on my regular sal
ary?
A.—No. The law provides on
ly for employee contributions
to Social Security on tip in
come. Your employer is not the
source of your tip income; for
that reason he is not required
to pay Social Security tax on
tips.
Q.—My wife and I are get
ting a divorce. What expenses
will I be able to deduct next
year?
A.—Alimony payments may
be deductible but legal fees to
get a divorce and child support
payments are considered per
sonal expenses and are not de
ductible. If there are children
and you provide more than half
their support, you may be able
to claim them as dependents.
Q.—My return was audited
and some of my expenses dis
allowed. I have a report show
ing that I will owe additional
tax. Is there anything I can do
about this ?
I still think I am right.
A.—You may request a dis
trict conference to discuss the
disallowed deductions. Proced
ures for requesting this con
ference are explained in the
notice you received with the
explanation of adjustments
proposed.
By requesting this confer
ence you receive an indepen
dent review of the items ques
tioned. Legal counsel is not
needed for this conference but
you may bring a lawyer or ac
countant if you wish.
There arc additional appeals
procedures available to you.
You can get a full explanation
of these in IRS Document 5202,
which you can get by writing
to the District Director.

NO RETREAT IN VIET
NAM
All the sound and fury of the
mammoth Communist thought
shaping apparatus, used so ef
fectively within America in
every major advance in the
Red”s international conspiracy
to take over the world, is being
brought to bear upon our nat
ion ”s involvement in the Viet
Nam war. Gus Hall, top U. S.
Communist, hardly created a
stir five years ago when he fill
ed Tie Worker and otherU. S.
Communist publications with
the opening demands that the
U. S. “get out of Viet Nam.”
This was the kick-off of th*
full-throated propaganda cam
paign to get the U. S. out of
South Viet Nam so the Reds
could take it and be virtually
unmolested as they overran the
rest of Southeast Asia. In the
beginning Hall and his U. S.
Communists had few allies
among Americans with in
fluence in their battle for U. S.
withdrawal from Viet Nam.
Now they have powerful allies
in this objective. Today such
persuasive voices, such mas
sive, organized agitation and
such potent political forces are
allied with the mounting cla
mor for U. S. witKSrawal that
World Communism may be on
the verge of achieving another
major victory disastrous to
the free world.
OUR NATION
CONDEMNED
Even the Chairman of the
U. S. Senate Foreign Relations
Committee has publicly de
manded formal recognition of
Red China, the recognition of
the Red forces in Viet Nam as
“equals” in the politics and
government of South. Viet Nam
and worthy of inclusion in a
coalition government. To th®
delight of Gus Hall and the
American Communists dedi
cated to the overthrow of our
nation by force the Foreign
Relations Chairman has gone
further. He has condemned the
United States for much of what
it has been trying to do in
South Viet Nam.
It is an astonishing develop
ment and it is symptomatic of
a deep running current within
our Government. Some sources
of information in Washington
have come upon evidence of a
“Dove” breakthrough in Ad
ministration quarters which
previously have been bolster
ing President Johnson’s firm
stand against the apepasers
and fright-mongers.
The “Lost Cause” Band
Wagon
Some of the same forces
which burrowed into thought
making and policy - making
channels of our governmental
leadership and caused the U. S.
to w i t h d r a w its controlling
forces from the Dominican Re
public at a time when the
Communist apparatus there
had almost been crushed, now
are at work on a much higher
plane and with much higher
stakes in the mammoth cam
paign to pull American forces
out of South Vietnam.
Reliable sources in Washing
ton report that some influential
people in key positions in de
partments and agencies in
volved in foreign policy and
military decisions have “ at
long last” concluded that the
U. S. war to dislodge the Reds,
in South Viet Nam is “a lost
cause.” They assess the con
tinuing war as a severe politi
cal liability for the party in
power and they are quietly
working on various face-saving
devices that would “prepare”
the American public for “dis
engagement” (at first), then
withdrawal. An election with
the Communists maneuvering
to win a big vote, would climax
the withdrawal campaign.
Source Close To Home
My informants say that at
least some of the 'Buddhist
agitation for “elections” and
some of the general chaos
brought on by Buddhists and
camp-following Reds in Safgon
have roots in U. S. Govern
ment circles in Washington —
such as existed during the Bud
dhist uprisings prior to the kill
ing of President Ngo Rihn Diem.
The agitation for elections and
the “hopeless” complexion pain
ted upon the Viet Nam prob
lems by a parade erf witnesses
before the Senate Foreign Re
lations Committee (with extra
ordinary TV coverage) tend,
whether deliberately planned or
not, to. expand. in_ the. public
mind. the_ idea. that. America
should withdraw.
Such withdrawal at this time
would be a tragic and extremely
costly, mistake, for. America.
Any “popular” elections at this
time would be playing squarely
into th? hands of the Comm
unists who are masters at con
trolling the masses, stirring e-
motions, and gain their ends.
Viet Nam has become a battle
ground on a world stage. We
have the military resources and
the knowhow to win. Our people
have the will to win. Our cause
is righteous. The American peo
ple must demand the crushing
of the evil force arrayed against
us in South Viet Nam, and we
must under no circumstance be
stampeded into retreat and
withdrawal.
WAR WITH UNBEARABLE
RESTRICTIONS
Latest reports from U. S.
headquarters in So. Viet Nam
place the loss of American
fighting and bombing planes at
nearly 350 since combat aircraft
were first employed in the war
not so long ago. A tragiv num
ber of American young men
went down with the planes,
many of which were shot out of
the skies with Russian missiles.
Reports also mention the facf
that thousands of fresh Com
munist troops from North Viet
Nam, along with their deadly
mortars and other military
paraphernalia, are streaming
into South Viet Nam daily
through Cambodia.
A great volume of mili
tary supplies, from Russia and
Red China and other nations
continuing to trade with our
Red enemy in North Viet Nam,
flow daily into Haiphong har
bor a short distance from the
Red capital, Hanoi. All these
things are happing in areas of
the war zone which have been
made sanctuaries by U. S.
foreign policy!
Sparing The Enemy
Our U. S. fleet in the Gulf
of Tonking,. our long-range B-
52 fleets, and our medium and
light bombers off Navy carriers
and flying from new airfields
in South Viet Nam cannot hit
at vital targets in North Viet
Nam that have been given-
by our Department of Defense-
the status of sanctuary. Some
of the big staging areas from
which some deadly divisons of
heavily armed and mobile Red
troops out of Laos or Cambodia,
to wreak mounting death and
destructions upon U. S. forces,
are spared attacks from U. S.
aircrafts because of sanctuary
status established in Washing
ton GHQ. Haiphong’s teeming
harbor, with shops of many
nations unloading vital supplies
for ''the Red offensive, goes
about its deadly business with
out molestation from the U. S.
fleet nearby. Haiphong is a
sanctuary, so ordered by U. S.
policy makers in Washington.
Some observers are compar
ing this Vietnam war, fought
under these almost unbeliev
able and militarily-unbearable
conditions, with what happened
in Korea 15 years ago. Foreign
policy “considerations” at that
time made a sanctuary of the
source of the Communist war
against U. S. troops in South
Korea under almost precisely
the same circumstances as ex
ist today in Vietnam
The Rv-dte Manchurian
Sanctuary
Jn the fall of 1950,. after
General Douglas MacArthur’s
history-making victory over
the North Korean Reds, at
Inchon and the resultant
crushing defeat of the invading
enemy in South Korea, shock
ing word came from his in
telligence sources that a mas
sive Chinese Communists as
sault, out of Manchuria, was
moving up to the Yalu river
to attack the Americans. “I
felt, MacArthur later wrote,,
“there remained one weapon I
could use against massive Chi
nese intervention. I ordered
General Stratemeyer to employ
90 B-29s on the following morn
ing to destroy the Yalu Bridg
es and cut this easy line of
communications between Man-
churi and North Korea, over
which large armies of Chinese
Reds could swarm . . . _(But)
an immediate dispatch came
from Secretary Marshall (in
Washington) countermanding
my order.”
Manchuria became a sanctu
ary. The Chinese armies did
come—700,000 strong! They
pushed the American forces al
most off the peninsula. Thous
ands of American GIs were
killed, tens of thousands were
wounded. U. S. planes seeking
to help the ground troops on
the Korean, south side of the
Yalu were shot out of the air
by Communist gun emplace
ments that our planes were
forbidden to attack.
