than one dependent under the new
subsistence law passed by Con
gress, must.furnish proof of a
*second .dependent, the Veterans
Administration has. pointed out,
Eligible veterans with one de.
pendent, or no dependents at all
will receive their increase to $75
and $105 a month automatically
about May 1. The raises will also
be automatic to disabled veterans
studying under Public Law ‘16,
since VA already has information
on file regarding the number of
dependents.
However, veterans studying
under the G. I. Bill who want the
$120 a month subsistence for more
than one dependent must apply
for it. These veterans are urged
to contact their nearest VA representative or office immediately.
They should bring with them
birth certificates, or. certified
“copies, proving that they have at
least two dependents.

‘at Carson City in 1871. In a battle
that took place at this lake, fourteen of the convicts and one member of the pursuing posse were
killed.

A WRONG IDEA
An old idea is just as wrong
as it ever was, state officials of
National Automobile Club’s Seryice Department say, is that of

traction.

THE TAX CUT AND YOUR INCOME
The new Income tax reduction, enacted by the Republican Congress with help from dail in repudilating President Truman's veto, will take nearly 71/1 million low Income earners off the tax rolls entirely. The tax
chart below shows how much spendable income the average family of four will have after paying taxes in 1948
—and how this compares with their spendable incomes in 1947. For instance, @ man receiving $2,500 Income
this year will pay less than one percent for taxes; last year his tax was almost four percent of his income.
