Internal Revenue Announces New Income Return A new two page Federal income tax return form was announced today by Dana Lathan, Commissioner of Internal Revenue. The new return, called Form 1040 W, will help taxpayers who are not eligible to use the Form 1040A, but punch-car- d whose affairs do not require the use of the business and investment schedules on regular Form 1040, Commissioner Latham said. He said it will be of particular benefit to wage and salary earners who wish to claim (1) head of household or surviving spouse status; (2) exclusion and credit for dividends received; (4) estimated tax payment credit, or (5) itemized deductions for contributions, interest payments, medical expenses, and the like. He added: "Form 1040W Is a single sheet, printed on both sides. It is somewhat similar to the four page Form 1040, except that it does not contain schedules for income from business, rents, royalties, capital gains, partnerships, estates, annuities, trusts, etc., or for computing retirement income credits, or depreciation. Faculty Advisors Colege of Education, Syracuse University, who served as Chairman of a Board qf Judges in the Award Program. "For, commendation in achieving a high level of driver education activity or making exceptional progress during the past school year, our Board was delighted to approve Achievement Awards for the states of Delaware, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina and Utah and Progress Awards for Delaware, New Jersey, North Carolina Utah and the District of Columbia, Dr. Rogers said. The' Award Program is the medium recognized f by the White. House Conference on Highway Safety and the Presidents Committee for Traffic Safety' as the annual measurement of driver education' progress, a keystone in the national highway safety program. The report for the school year 1958-5- 9 covered 49 states and the Dis- trict of Columbia. Total figures disclosed that 63 percent of the public high schools in the United States had a driver education course and reached 67.7 percent of the eligible students. Even more encouraging was the fact that half the public high schools of the nation offered courses meeting the highest national standards. These top courses reached over 760, 000 students in the past year,' a gain of .approximately 27 percent over the previous record. In no sense a contest, the Award Program was designed to encourage .and recognize states which attain and maintain driver education courses meeting national standards in at least 60 percent of their high schools and enroll at' least 50 percent of . the eligible pupils. Recognition is also given cases of marked advance over the previous year. In the current list of Awards the states of Delaware, North Carolina and Utah qualified for both citations. This is the final year in which the Award Program will be sponsored by the Association of Casualty and Surety Companies, the activity being taken over hy the new Insurance Institute for Highway Safety at Washington, the- - entire D. C, comprising casualty insurance industry. Attractive Award plaques will be presented to the Governors of the qualifying states by representatives of the new Institute. The creation of the Institute has brought together, for the first of time, the total resources stock, mutual and independent casualty insurance companies to concentrate in field assistance to state and local officials and public support organizations for the development and operation of highway safety programs and projects.

In such cases, only prompt action by an adult can prevent tragedy, the doctors note. Children fight back at the bags but cannot tear the material, and dizziness, inability to think, muscle spasm, and finally an end to inhalation occur.
