Rising as, the House, in committee stage, reached budget resolutions deal- ing with co-operatives, he announced: For taxation purposes 'co-operative organizations will be allowed 12 mon- ths instead of six months as proposed in the resolutions, to pay patronage dividends. The provision that moneys expended by an organization in the purchase of the interest of members would be ex., empted only if that interest had been acquired after 1941 will be removed. Provision will be made whereby a. co-,operative which wishes to pay 'pat- ronage dividends only to members or at a lower rate to non members wilt be able to treat such patronage divi- dends as a deduction from taxable in- come,provided they pay tax-on income, arising from non:member business. Two Ways A bumptious fellow was giving evi- dence 'in a policocourt, "You say you stood up?" asked the. magistrate. "I said", retorted the conceited one,. that I stood.
