 Having arrived ct the total amount of salaries and other compensation for personal services" (iine 1, U. s. Individual Income Tax Return form 1040), you may be en- titled to "deductible expenses"
 These deluctible expenses on line l apply to a employe only. If you own . business or profession, your expenses should be reported m Schedule H, on which you figure the business profit or loss reported on line Q of form l040. Cline 9 will be explained in @ later article) TRAVELLING EXPENSES
 Deductible on line l are expenses which are direcvtly required in your work and which you pay yourself, without being repaid for them by your employer.
 A salesman's travelling expenses (if they are not repaid by his en- ployer) are an example. GAS pointed out in yesterdays article, travelling allowances must be included in in- come. Expenses are then subtracted here).
 Among the expenses deductible here are price of small tools or sup plies essential to your work which are not given you by your employer; cost of attending professional con- ventions, and dues paid to labor unions.
 If you use your car for business purposes and do not get special allowances for it from your enl- ployer, you may deduct such pro- portions of the cost of operation and unkeep as are used for business purposes. If you purchase a car for

fled.
 His denial that he had gone up. stairs at any time was supported by McEvoy, who said they retired to c sun porch after dinner and sat around drinking until Flynn left.
 Miss Hansen said she had heard the bedroom door click, as though 1t was being locked, but McEvoy said the lock was broken and could not have clicked. The lock was brought to court and found to be broken but defense and prosecution experts could reach no agreement on who broke 1t or when.
 Miss Satterlee accused Flynn of two i11timacies aboard his yatcht on 8 cruise to Catalina Island. He el1- tered her unlocked stateroom the first night, she said, and on the second night enticed her below decks to look at the moon through Q port hole.
 Flynn testified he had been trou- bled with a sinus condition on the first night and had nothing to do with Miss Satterlee and on the sec ond night gave all his attention to steering the boat.
 Aside from the denials, Flynns counsel argued that the girls accused the actor solely to escape prosecu- ton for immortality which had been called to the attention of the Dis- trict Attorneys office. Miss Hansen admitted an act of perversior1 with another man and Miss Satterlee, who said she was a good girl until she met Flynn, admitted a subse- quert abortion, the result of rela- tions with another man. Both said they hoped to avoid prosecution.
 "They have perjured themselves in other instances to your knowl. edge" Giesler told the jury, land their testimony may also be sus- pected as false"
 District Attorney Thomas Coch- ran reminded the jury that, under the law, the only question was whether Flynn had been intimate with two girls who had not reached the age of consent.

BY FREDERfCK Q. OTHNFAN

RX EHEOERkCk O. OIkAMAN (United Press Staff CorfespOndentl . Hollywood, Feb. 0.-(UP)-Errol Flynn, "almost broke" but happy over his acquittal, said today that statutory rape charges were filed against him as Q political scheme" iIa an ateHnpt to discredit him.
 -'s1 don't believe the people who prosecuted me ever thought they would find me guilty" Flynn said. "A lot of mud has been thrown, and suppose some of it may stick. But I am happy that the political sci1eming in the case hasn't inter- fered with American justice"
 Tfe declined to elaborate or to de. scribe the nature of the political scheming."
 Defending himself against the charges lodged by Betty Hansen, 17, waitress, and Peggy LaRue Satterlee, IS night club entertainer, had left him nearly broke" Flynn said.
 Flynn, said his immediate plans depended on a certain "job."
 "Thts involves Q job am seeking to help our country in the war ef- fort" he said. I'm sorry I can't say any more about 1t at this time, but can tell you 1t has nothing to do with motion pictures"
 As for the films, he said his studio had been "very understand ing" and he may make another one soon.
 The Jury debated two conflicting versions, one given by Flynn, who denied everything, the other by his two accusers. Hymns defense was that he had been @ gentleman at all times and that the stories told by Miss satterlee and Miss Hansen were not worthy of belief.
 Miss Hansen testified that she drank her first Martini, or what looked like one, sat on the arm Of Hymns chair during Q party at the home of his host, Fred McEvoy slipped accidentally into the actors lap and somehow arrived in an up- stairs beiroofn. Flynn, she testified undressed her, all but her shoes. Flynn was similarly clad, she said. She testified that he attacked her there and that she did not protest.
 Flynn said she slipped a Martini and bored him. She started sliding from the arm of the chair toward his lap but he evaded her, he testi-

New York Feb. 8-tUP)-Captain E. v. Rickenbacker advocated the drafting of industrial and farm labor on a military basis last night.
 He implied that drafted labor, un- der his proposal, would have a rnili- tary rather than a civilian status for the duration of its service.
 Addressing the annual dinner of the Baseball Writers association, he said:
 'Let these men be sent to Army or Navy schools and there let them be taught an agricultural or indus trial skill in the same way that their younger and unmarried contempor- aries are being taught skill of war.
 "These men could then be released to the farm or to industry and under this legislation they would not have to join any labor union."
 Rickenbacker also advocated the keeping of civilian service records of the same sort that are kept for the individual members of the

the goods. Robert did not go into the Merchant Marine with his eyes closed. He knew that in the last war, men doing similar jobs were called slackers by the regular Navy, the Army and many civilians. His- tory has repeated in the lingo of the uniformed.
 Possibly to right such wrongs, the office of War Information has re- vealed that of 10000 seamen of the American Merchant Marine engaged intransporting men and supplies to our troops and our allies abroad no less than 3,200 must be listed as dead or missing during the first year of the war. A casualty rate far higher than the three-fourths of one percent for our armed forces.
 It takes & great deal of daring to serve on ship that must make the run through submarine infested waters, ducking enemy battleShips, cruisers and aeroplanes, with the faint protection of 8 pitiful small bit of shooting equipment, as most fore and aft, manned by a few Sail- ors from the regular Navy, who too, are aware of their great responsibil- ity to try and bring the cargo through to It's destination.
 So this year, hope that Boy Scouts, who are looking with pride and admiration at their big brothers in the various armed services of the Nation will not overlook the Sea Scouts and other Boy Scouts, who have turned their good right arm and skills toward the sea for the purpose of keeping our forces and civilians abroad free from exposure to starvation and defeat by Scut- ting ships through the oceans lad- ened with men, equipment, food, medicines, supplies, etc.
 It seems to me that veterans or- ganizations might well study the casualty lists of World War One to see that history is repeating It. self. There has been a great injustice done by slurs against our merchant seamen, enlisting for the duration. Most of the young fellows are con- siderably under the age of twenty. Quite number of them were read- led for service by their teen age experiences in the Sea Scouts.

Five Point Charges
Leveled Against
Dies
BY Federated Press

NEW YORK-"The American
people who are fighting this war
for freedom will no longer counte-
nance the shame Of the Dies COM
mittee," the Natl. Federation for
Constitutional Liberties asserted
in message to the House of Rep
resentatives Jan. IL.
The committees unceasing war
fare against organized labor was
given by the federation as one of
the principal reasons why congress
should refuse to continue the COM
mittee. All the reasons:
81. The Dies committee, by al
lowing itself to become forum for
the proponents of intolerance and
hatred, has undermined the very
foundations of national unity.
"2. The Dies committee, by con-
tinued and repeated attacks on our
great ally, the Soviet Union, has
utilized it's resources to obstruct
the cooperation of the United Ma
tions which is prerequisite for
victory.
"3. The Dies committee has at
tempted, by its unprincipled and
unfounded attacks on trade unions
and their officials, to destroy the
American labor movement which is
a vital and decisive factor in the

war effort, and which has made the
war record of our free workers the
pride Of the nation.
"a. The Dies committee not only
has deliberately suppressed infor-
nation concerning the activities of
Nazi cohorts in this country but
has gone out Of its way to shield
such Axis propagandists as Pelley,
Wnrod, Viereck and many
others now convicted or under in
dictment for sedition by the gov
ernment of the U. S.
SO. The Dies committee, to hide
its flagrant fraternizing with fas-
cists, has utilized its congressional
prestige to continue an undemo-
cratic, un-American and openly OBJ
structionist campaign Of vilification
against thousands of the staunch-
est supporters of the war and of
the democratic way of life."

WASHINGTON-Signs that the
Presidents Fair Employment
Practice Committee would put up
a vigorous fight, backed by AFL
and CIO, were evident here Jan.
II as labor members of the COM
mittee urged an early meeting to
protest postponement of the rail-
way discrimination hearings set
for Jan. %.
Their plan was to make formal
protest to Manpower Commissioner
Paul V. McNutt, who announced
the postponement Jan. II, and if
the hearings were not forthcoming,
to go over McNutt's head and take
the matter to the President.
Cramer Didn't Wait
Meanwhile there were indica-
tions that Executive Secretary
Lawrence w. Cramer of the FEPC
was not waiting until the full
committee met to make known his
sentiments to the President. Asked
if he had been to see the presi-
dent, the previous day, Cramer
didn't confirm it. Nevertheless his
voice sounded more cheerful than
on the previous day, as he said,
40, l go lots of places"
Groups Protest
Protests from various labor, Ne
gro and progressive groups were
directed both to McNutt and the
President. The CIO Committee to
Eliminate Racial Discrimination,
headed by Sec.- Treas. James B.
Carey, issued a statement late in
the day calling on McNutt TO re-
verse his decision "before we lose
the faith of Millions" including the
people of the United Nations who
will see this trend as an obstacle to
unity.
Ask McNutt To Show Courage
Declaring that the CIo views his
decision to postpone the investiga-
ton against Negroes in railway
personnel with "bitter disappoint-
ment," the committee said it under
stood it was made in vigorous op-
position to the FEPC.
Calling McNutt's decision a set
back of the first magnitude on the
home front, the committee point
ed out it was indissolubly linked
