German Government Com
plains to America That
Allies Slay Civilians
Says 1t Ended
Practice October l
Threatens to Resume Bomb
ing if "Objects of Culture"
Are Not Spared

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.-The Ger
man government to-day notified the
United States that since October / its
air forces have been under orders to
make bomb attacks solely against i'm
portant hostile military objects within
the mediate operations of war, on the
assumption that Allied ard American
air forces were to receive similar in
structicns.
The note, delivered through the
Swiss Legation, protests that air raids
have been carried out recently against
among the civilian population, and
that unless such raids cease Germany
cannot refrain from aerial attacks on
Allied territory outside of the zone of
operations.
! This was the first notice received by
the American government that such
orders had been issued to the German
air forces, whick have constantly
! raided defenceless cities and towns in
France, Great Britain and Italy since
the war began.
No Comment on Note
The State Department made public
the German note without comment. 1t
follows:
"Tne German aerial forces have been
under orders since the beginning of
October of this year only to make
bomb attacks which are directed solely
aroinct i,opOrtapt houti1o military oh
jects within the immediate area of
operations of war. These orders were
issued on the assumption that the en-
emy aerial forces were to receive SIM
liar instructions.
"In assuming this the. German peo-
pie find themselves disappointed. A
short time ago the enemy made bomb
attacks on the German towns Of
Wetzler, Kaiserslautern, Mannheim,
Weisbaden, claiming numerous victims
among the civilian population. Nor
has occupied territory been spared. 1t
is evident that Germany can refrain
from aerial attacks on enemy territory
behind the area of operations only if,
on their side. the enemy from now on
will reciprocate and also refrain from
making aerial attacks outside the area
I of military operations.
Concerned About "Culture''
"In the expectation that the inten-
tion shared by the other side, to
further humanitys and preserve i'm,
portant objects Of culture, will meet
with the Understanding Of it's oppo-
s nents, the German government pro-
poses to the governments of the other
belligerent countries that corresponds
ing instructions to be issued without
delay to their aerial forces, informing
th~~, OF the measures TAKEN"
There was no intir alton as to what
action, if any, the American govern
ment would take with regard to the
German protest. 1t was sad authori-
tatively, however, that official reports
show American air operations have not
gone beyond attacks upon military OBJ
jectives.

As to the Farmers.

The number of farmers who will pay income taxes has not been estimated by the government officials, but it is certain they will form large percen tage of the 6.O00.000 persons assessed who never before have paid an income tax. The average farmer does not keep books but if he avails himself of the services of government experts who will be sent to aid him, it will not be difficult for him to ascertain the amount of his net income.
 The farmer is making out his return may deduct depreciation in the value of property and machinery used in the conduct of his farm, and loss by fire, storm or other casualty, or by theft if not covered by insurance. Expenses actually incurred in farm operation may be deducted. but not family or liv- ing expense. Produce raised on the farm and traded for groceries, wearing apparel, etc, is counted as living ex- penditures and cannot be deducted.
 Salaries paid by the state or polit- icaI subdivision of the state are ex- empt A farmer holding the job of county supervisor, for instance, does not have to include his salary in his in' come tax return.

Back to Civilization.

Bobby and his folks had just moved into Chicago. Through some misun- derstanding the carpets and most of the furniture were delayed nearly a week. During that time Bobby and his little new-made friends had a glo- rious time racing through the almost empty house. Late one afternoon the furniture arrived and things were soon set in order. Bobby was heartbroken. The next morning he greeted his friends with: "Oh pshaw, kids! You can't come in any more. We've come back to civilization"
