The amount of the personal exemption ex-emption also varies depending upon the period during which the taxpayer tax-payer occupied the particular exemption ex-emption status. The personal exemption lor a single -person is $500 for the year; for a married person living with husband or wife, $1200; and for a "head of family," $1200. (Personal exemption as head of a family has no effect on liability to file a return.) re-turn.) For Federal income tax purposes, pur-poses, widows, widowers, divorcees, and married persons separated by mutual consent, as well as persons who have never been married, are classed as single persons. A head of family is defined as "an individual who actually supports and maintains in one household dne or more individuals who are closely connected with him by blood relationship, rela-tionship, relationshipT by marriage or by adoption, and whose right to exercise ex-ercise family control and provide for those dependent individuals is based upon some moral or legal obligation." obliga-tion." A single person, or a married person not living with husband or wife, may, therefore, enjoy a head of family exemption under certain conditions. Taxpayers using a Simplified Re turn (which is permitted if the gross income for the year is $3000 or less and derived solely from earnings from employment andor from di- vidents, interest ana annuities) od-tain od-tain personal exemption based on their status as of July 1 of the year. Thus, a taxpayer married and living with husband or wife on July 1 is entitled to $1200 personal exemption on Form 1040A; if he were a widower widow-er on July 1, his exemption would.be $500, irrespective of the date of which he became a widower. The amount of the exemption is not deductible de-ductible from the income but is reflected re-flected in the amount of tax shown in the table on the reverse side of the form. Taxpayers using return Form 1040 obtain personal exemption proportionate propor-tionate with the number of months during which the particular status is held. Thus, for a person who married on July 1, (who was. not a head of family prior to his marriage) the personal exemption would be $850 ($250 for the six months as a single man, plus $600 for the six months as a married man). In this example it is assumed that . the wife has no income. Married persons may, however, file joint returns, even though one has no incom, and by filing a joint return a couple married during the year . may obtain an exemption amounting to the exemption to wheih they would be entitled for the period of married status, plus the amount of their individual exemptions ex-emptions prior to their marriage. In the example given the total exemption ex-emption in a joint return would be $1100 ($250 for each spouse for six months plus $600 for six months married status). If a husband and wife living together to-gether both have income and file separate returns on Form 1040, the personal exemption applicable to a married person may be taken in the return of either or divided between be-tween them in any way as they may agree, but the total personal exemption ex-emption taken in the two separate returns may not exceed $1200.

Levin, director or Home Registration Office, a new plan for conversion has been devised by the National Housing Agency wherein your government will lease your house and remodel ft to provide pro-vide additional living quarters for War Workers. The shortage of housing is impending the production produc-tion of ships, guns, planes endangering en-dangering the lives of soldiers, sailors sail-ors and marines and vitally affecting affect-ing the completion of our own Geneva Works and the cry for more steel. , ; The cost of conversion under this new program will be paid by the Government and the owner will be paid an attractive monthly rental and at the end of the period will receive back his property in its improved im-proved condition. If he wishes, the owner may ar range to continue to occupy one unit of the property. 5 I Not every home will qualify Tor a War lease. It must be of such size and construction, as to accomodate more than one family. Mortgaged as well as unmortaged houses are eligible, however. Vacant houses or homes even occupied by the owners are the ones most wanted. ' ,. To be considered, houses must be located within convenient trans portation distance of the war plants and in districts where the local zoning laws permit conversion. The answer is to make full use of existing homes in America. Many people have remodeled their property, prop-erty, creating additional family units for the new comers, but others oth-ers have been deterred by the cost or lack of convenient financing. Now your government offers thousands of home owners a new opportunity to help win the war and at the same time earn an Extra Cash Income from their property. - .- 1 A quota of 125 units are to be remodeled in, Utah County under Church Leaders Conduct Outstanding Quarterly Conference Session Sunday Tax Money Distributed To Cities, Schools The third apportionment of 1942 tax collections to the various cities, towns, school districts and other taxing units of Utah County has been completed and checks mailed out; Frank T.
