?THE CAROLINA TIMES SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1970
WOMEN HELP CONTAIN PAPERWORK "EXPLOSION"Can a woman really "make
'V in the business world? Asproof that the can, just take alook at Pam Pernell of Raleigh,North Carolina.
Pam holds a responsible andchallenging position as anEducational Services Repre-sentative (ESR) for the OfficeProducts Division of Inter-national Business MachinesCorporation.
Her job is to educate cus-tomers in the most effectiveuse of IBM office equipment
The ESR position originallywas oriented specificallytoward teaching the proper u»e
of electric typewriters, thenthe Office Product* Division'sprimary product.
But in the past I "» years, theDivision's products li.ive be-come more sophisticated to
keep pace with the "paperworkexplosion" generated by busi-ness and government. ESRs arenow called upon to help cus-tomers use such products asIBM magnetic media type-
writer*. dictating equipmentand systems and direct-
operation, a film on office-supplies use and a discussion ofefficient typing practices.
Among Pain's male "stu-dents" are executives and sales-impression composing equip-
ment?all common in businessoffices worldwide.
Pam received her bachelor'sdegree from Meredith Collegein Kalciglt. N.C Typically, shehad a teaching certificate plusteaching experience before be-coming an ESK in July ofISMif".
mi 1 11 lo whom she demon-strates IBM dictation cquip-ment and its most efficient use.This course, "The Art of Dicta-tion." is supplemented by onefor secretaries; "The Art ofTranscription."
Ham even teaches teachers.In the Teachers Workshop, shebrings business education in-structors up to date by demon-strating IBM office equipmentand showing how it can beused in classrooms to preparestudents realistically forbusiness-world jobs.
To Pam, one of IBM's mostexciting new programs is theAudio Response Classroom,where young people learn read-ing and composition. On thetheory that speaking is easierthan writing, students talk outtheir ideas into a dictationunit. Then they listen to theirplayed-back words and correctthem before writing themdown.
Pant's office is in the IBMbuilding in Raleigh. Whenever acustomer buys or rents an IBMMagnetic Tape "Selectric"Typewriter, the operator re-
ceives a detailed instructioncourse. And because IBM'sRaleigh office services half ofNorth Carolina. Pam is often inthe field instructing customersunable to get away from theirbusinesses.
Pam leaches similar pro-

She also goes to customeroffices to instruct secretaries inthe "Proficiency Program" todevelop typing expertise. Thetwo-hour program includes in-

Last spring. Pam got a spe-cial assignment: to attend theIX Annual Conference of theChiefs of Staff of the Armiesof the Western Hemisphere at
Pam Pernell, seated, IBM Educational Services Representative, isan expert on the operation and use of the equipment manufac-tured by IBM's Office Products Division. Her knowledge makes
her a valuable colleague for salesmen calling on potential cus-tomers. Here, Pam helps salesman, left, by demonstrating theDivision's Magnetic Tape "Selectric" Typewriter.
Fort Bragg, N.C. IBM MagneticTape "Selectric" ComposeiSystems were used to Iranscribe the conference proceedings verbatim in EnglishSpanish and Portuguese. Tin.Pentagon called on Pam for advice on which machines to useand how to use them.
Since IBM developed theprogram in 1955, ESRs havetraveled and taught in nearlyevery American city and inmany parts of the world. Onegirl spent three weeks teachingU.S. Navy personnel to use theIBM Magnetic Tape "Selectric"Typewriter at the GuantanamoNaval Base in eastern Cuba.Two other ESRs?BarbaraWilson and Mary Anne Molitor
are stationed in Alaska,which they crisscross by float-equipped or amphibious "bushplanes" to hold classes andhelp IBM customers.
Before an ESR begins work,she undergoes a four-monthtraining program.
"Training never stops,though," Pam points out.
Nor is an ESR's job a 9-to-5routine. Pam, who welcomesthe varied and flexible sched-ule, admits that "it's often hec-tic." But she adds: "I can'timagine ever enjoying any jobmore."

maturity.First, you must be able to
take a fairly long view of thehappiness you expect in life.Are you able to build forsomething in the future, evenif it means sacrifice in thepresent? Can you give uptemporary pleasure for futurtgain?
Nothing does more to pre-vent the growth of love thanthe attitude that others aresimilar to coal, iron, or timber-there to be used.
Another indicator: Can youhold onto your standards ofbehavior, your judgements,your goals - even in the
presence of strong emotions?Or do your emotions so
blind you to what wouldreally be best for both you
and another person that youlet yourself be used by that
person for selfish purposes?Another thought: Can you
take responsibility? Do you
follow through? Or do youlet others take the responsibili-ty, not only for what you
should do, but for you, your-self? It is a serious thing tolove someone and let that per-
son grow to love you.Do you feel that you are
unattractive and not liked byothers? Do you feel insecure,inferior, afraid to meet peo-ple? Have you had troublemaking friends?
Some persons who feel thisway make mistakes easily.They are so eager to love andto be loved that this is what
sometimes happens: Theymeet someone who is attrac-tive to them or gives them

ALL-IN-ONE-DISHSUPPER
This column of questions and answers on federaltax matters is provided by the local office of the U.S.Internal Revenue Service and is published as a publicservice to taxpayers. The column answers questionsmost frequently asked by taxpayers.
i ' Q) My teenage daughter is» helping out in my store this
i summer. Do I treat her just
r like any other employee fortax purposes?
A) Since your daughter isunder 21, you do not have towithhold social security or un-
i employment taxes from herwages. You will have to with-hold federal income taxes,however, unless she meets a
I new rule on withholding add-ed to the law last year.
It provides that if someone, owed no tax the previous year
and expects to owe no tax thisyear, then income tax with-holding can be avoided in the
I current year. If your daugh-i j ter qualifies, have her file an
\u25a0 exemption certificate with you,; | her employer. You can obtain
\u25a0 | the certificate, Form W-4E,I I from your local IRS office.
Q) A taxpayer has to payinterest when he is late paying
j taxes. Does the government| pay interest when it is late in! issuing a refund?
Q) Some of my friends seemto Ret audited every year whileothers never do. How do youdecide which ones Ret a closerlook?
A) First," all returns arechocked for mathematical ac-curacy during the processing-operations. Mistakes are pick-ed up an<l corrected here thatresult in a different tax lia-bility and the amount of therefund is adjusted or a billfor additional tax issued.Some of these mistakes are inthe taxpayer's favor whileothers are in the govern-ment's.
Returns are then screenedby computers and rated as tothe likelihood that they con-tain other errors. These mightbe erroneous expenses or de-ductions, income not reportedor mistakes in claiming ex-emptions.
The returns with the high-est scores are then examinedby IRS employees.
A f TOwTaxpayers AsffeWtim
A) Yes. However, the IRShas 45 days from the deadlinefor filing a tax return or the
date a return is filed, if later,
to issue a refund. If it takealonger than that, interest atthe rate of 6 percent a year
is added to the refund.
The interest rate the gov-ernment pays on delayed re-funds is at the same rate as
taxpayers are charged whenthey are late in paying. Tax-payers who delay paying taxesmay have to pay a penalty inaddition to interest.
Q) Is it true there are new
restrictions when it comes todepreciating farm buildings?
A) Yes, last year's tax re-form act changed the use ofaccelerated depreciation meth-ods for real property acquiredafter July 24, 1969. On newfarm buildings, you cannotuse a rate faster than the150 percent declining balance
method. Previously, you coulduse a 200 percent decliningbalance or sum of the year-digits method in addition tothe straight line depreciation.
Accelerated depreciationmethods may not be used on
farm buildings that are notnew.
each other? Do you respecteach other's point of view?
To be ready to fall in love
with one man or one woman,you have to be able to makemature, independent judg-ments.
A final factor: Is there any
situation from which youwould like to escape, be ithome, school, town or work?
If so, watch out. You couldeasily reach a mistaken con-clusion about being in love be-
cause falling in love would
mean marriage and marriagewould mean only winning outover your parents or escapingfrom an unpleasant situation.
But here's the catch. Lovenever gets you out of any-thing; it always involves youmore with those whom you
love.
