| Saturday, February 2, 1924—Page 8 THE JEFFERSONIAN, TOWSON, MARYLAND AUTOMOBILE CLUB HAS AX GROUND SHARP FOR BAUGHMAN'S UNPAID DEPUTIES Bill To Be Presented To Legislature To Abolish These Plain-Clothes And Mysterious Men—Governor Is Silent On Matter. Abolition of the unpaid, plain clothes, mysterious "deputies" of the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles will be the object of a bill introduced in the Legislature by the Automobile Olub of Maryland. These men, who, said J. Leroy Hopkins, counsel for the Club, have the authority to make arrests and the implied authority to drive at any speed they desire with both impunity and immunity, have long been a thorn in the flesh of Maryland motorists. Governor Ritchie has not committed himself one way or another regarding the deputies, but there is one question about them which is in the Governor's mind, and the solution of which he purposes to seek from B. Austin Baughman, Commissioner of Motor Vehicles. That question is this: Does public policy require that the identity of the deputies should be kept secret? If so, on what grounds? If not, will the Commissioner object to making the list of names public? Aside from the Governor, members of the Legislature and the motorist, there is another not influential class of the community which is regarding the unpaid "deputies" with respectful admiration. This class comprises the practicing politicians. To these latter the word has come that the marvelous petition presented at Annapolis Wednesday for the retention of Mr. Baughman as Motor Vehicle Commissioner would not have been so complete or so imposing had it not been for the efforts of the corps of deputies who, according to the version of the story the politicians get welded a chain-letter system which made Senator Weller's best campaign correspondence courses appear amateurish.

Not infrequently taxpayers include in their income tax returns items that are specifically exempt from taxation, according to the Internal Revenue Department. Among these are the following: Proceeds of life insurance policies paid upon the death of the insured, income from such property acquired by gift, bequest, devise or descent. The income from such property, however, is taxable. Returns of premiums in life insurance, endowment, or annuity contracts. Amounts received through accident or health insurance, or under workmen's compensation acts for personal injuries or sickness, plus the amount of damages received, whether by suit or agreement, on account of such injuries or sickness. Amounts received as compensation, family allotments and allow ances under the provisions of the war risk insurance and the vocational rehabilitation acts. Pensions from the United States for the services of the beneficary or another in the military or naval service in time of war. A bonus paid by a State to its residents who served in the military or naval services during the war with Germany. Allowances, whether paid by the Government or a person to one who performed no doties, as for example, to a widow in recognition of the services rendered by her husband, are considered gratitudes, or gofts, and are not taxable. The rental value of a dwelling an dappurtenances thereof furnished a minister of the gospel as part of his compensation is exempt from taxation. Dividends or interest, not in excess of $300 rerceived by individuals during the years 1922 to 1926, inclusive, from domestic building and loan associations, operated exclusively for the purpose of making loans to its members, are exempt from tax. Salaries paid by a State to its officers or employees. Tax free income need not be included in gross income, nor need it be mentioned in an inome tacx re-turrn. Taxpayers who prepare and file their income tax returnrs for the year 1923 early have a decided advantage over procrastinators. A little time and thought now in the preparation of a return is excellent insurance against errors, which result in the detriment of taxpayers and government alien.

Mr. Logie Bonnett, Editor Tbe Jef-fersonian, Towson, Md. Dear Mr. Bonnett:— Your editorial of January 3£th, on Consolidation of Improvenwnt Associations in our county is timely and to the point and you are to be congratulated on bringing this matter before the people at this time. Occasions will arise when matters of county-wide importance will have to be met and concerted action will be necessary. The influence of an improvement association should not be confined, solely, to its own local section. There are before our people now, two questions of vital importance in the proposed new School Loan and Sewerage disposal and Water Systems in the rural communities. We have been discussing and advocating a Federation of Improvement Associations for several meetings past and will gladly take the initiative in this movement if our sister organizations will communicate with us. Yours very truly, COCKBYSVILLE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION, JAMES F. RAFFERTY, President. (By Nancy Hanks) In building a home few of us plan far enough ahead, I find from talking to various, builders. We find later that we should have had a breakfast room, more attic space or something equally expensive or perhaps impossible to add. If you are short of funds when you build or buy your home—and who is not?—plan so that you can add to the house without detracting from its graceful lines and without giving the additions the appearance of an afterthought. If you are thinking of building this spring, start at once to make as complete plans as possible. It would be folly to suggest one ideal type of a small house; yet, countless as are the excellent plans furnished by various agenices in the building industry, many prospective home builders are unable to decide on just what they want, or, having decided, eventually find a lot of changes they would like to have made. As regards the small house, it goes without saying that the two-story type is the most economical. It doubles the floor space on the foundation and under the same roof. It is better to have fewer rooms and at least one large living room in which to "live" and receive your guests than to cut up a house into little rooms or cells. A large living room can be a combination living room, dining-room and even bedroom. Every time you add a partition you have added four corners to your floor space, which are good for noth- ing except to set a piece of furniture in; at the same time you have cut off air and light, added further expense, and in some instances made the house more difficult to heat uniformly. Cheap as is a concrete foundation, it can be made cheaper by a little common sense in building it. Concrete work is hard, and yet I have seen many men mixing their material far away from their forms, hauling the extra weight of water, sloping it all over, losing lots of it, and handling it twice instead of once. Build the mixing board, if possible, so that it is slipped over the edge of the forms. This practically cuts the labor to mixing and pouring in half. The idea is not to haul the mixture after mixing, but to arrange so that th econcrete can roll right off the mixing board into the forms practically by gravity.
