VII. Investments and Trust sLine 16, U.S. Treas, Bi l ls or no tes: Because ! do not kno w h ow properly to put these 26 t ransact ions in Sect ion VII , I am at taching a l i s t of them. Since thi srepresents a complete disclosure of the dates, amounts and income from these transactions, I believe it complies with the law. Those amounts and transactions arehandled by a f iduciary w ith whose acco~ mting I do not in ter fere but s imply report each year on my lax return . I would prefer not to have to hire an accountant totranslate it inlo a different accounting system. If this is not satisfactory, please advise what parl of the judicial disclosure law this method of reporting violates.
