The Week in RELIGION
Passover Finds Jewry IN America Experiencing Revival

Passover, 1850, finds American
Jews flocking to synagogues ir
record numbers.
The reason: American Jewry
has been experiencing a strone
religious revival. This has meant
in turn. marked upsurge in botf
synagogue membership and at
tendance.
An article in the current issue
of Commentary, monthly journa
published by the American Jewish
Committee. reports that syna-
gogue membership is probably al
record level" Some synagogues
the article said, have been forced
to take extraordinary steps to cope
with an overflow of applications
Meanwhile, attendance at regular
Sabbath services has grown mark
edly and Hebrew and religious
schools are making notable gains
+ In many instances" the article
says, veterans have been active
| in initiating and building syna-
gogues. and there is hardly a new
housing project in any of the
larger cities without it's congrega-
ton"
Three Groups Back Traditions.
Helping to stimulate the religi-
Gus upswing have been special ac-
tivities among the three major
jewish groups-ConServatve, Re-
form and Orthodox-all of whom
report encouraging results.
Adherents of the three groups
uphold Jewish tradition, the main
difference between the Orthodox
and the Conservative and Reform
being that the two latter have
varying concepts of religious prac-
tice arising from modern condi-
tions and circumstances.
Although all the groups have
benefited from the revival of re-
ligious concern among American
Jews, the conservative element,
which combines considerable de-
gree Of traditionalism with a mod
ern and American" outlook in
everything else, appears to have
gained most.
The main national conservative
organization is the United Syna-
gogue of America which now
claims about 400 congregations
$50 of which have become afflli-
ated in the past three years.
Largely responsible for this
gain have been the series of re-
gional conferences organized by
the United Synagogue to advise
local congregations in better man.

Who must do ,Uhat and hoD
about 1949 income tar returnJ
By the Associated Press
If you're married, remember
the present law gives married
couples a break on their 1949 in
come tax.
1t allows them-but only if they
file a joint return-to split their
income. each claiming half of it,
even though one of them had no
income at all.
This split throws each half of
the income into a lower tax
bracket than the total income
would have been in if it had been
left unsplit.
Never will married couples lose
money by filing a Joint return
when one of them had no income.
In most cases it will save them
money.
In most cases where both had
income they will save money by
filing a joint return. Neverthe-
less, you can suit yourself wheth-
er you file separately or jointly.
$500 Exemption for Wife.
Remember: II your wife had no
income and was not a dependent
of some other taxpayer, you get
a $500 exemption for her on your
return, whether or not she files
jointly with you.
OF course, a wife with no in
come doesn't have to file any,
thing. But it would be absurd for
a wife with no income to fail to
file jointly with her husband, since
unless both filed they couldn t
split the income.
But-and this is extremely i'm
portant-if your wife had income
no matter how tiny, you can not
not get that $500 exemption for
her unless she files Jointly with
you.
If she had income that was less
than $500, she doesn't have to
file a return, since no one with
less than $500 is compelled to file
a return. However. she ought to
file a joint return with her hus-
band SO he can use her exemption
If she doesn't she will throw the
the difference between her income
and $500 exemption allowed.
Wife Can File Separately
If her income was $500 or more
and she files a separate return,
then she claims her own $500
Evening star., 1950-02-18
Married Couples Given Break
When They File a Joint Return

lexemption-the same allowed to
Everyone filing a return.
This means, then, that since
she's setting $500 exemption for
herself on her return, you can
claim only your own $500 exemp-
ton on your return.
If both of you had income-or
one didn't have any and you file
a Joint return, then each of you
on that joint return gets a $500
exemption, or a total of $1,000 in
exemptions.
Where husband and wife file a
Joint return both must sign it.
And keep this in mind:
If you were married as late in
1949 as December 81 you may
file joint return on your income
for all of 1949 and get the bene-
fit of the lower split income tax on
married couples.
Couples divorced or legally sep
arated any time in 1949-even as
late as December 31-must file
separate returns for the year.
Each then gets only his own ex-
emption.
Even if husband paid all the
support of divorced or legally
separated wife he can't get an
exemption for her.
Husbands and wives living apart
by December 81, 1949, but not
divorced or legally separated dur
ing that year may file a Joint
return.
But if you're puzzled about this
question-"Can I deduct for ali
mony?"-the answer is "Yes" if
it is paid under a court order and
in regular installments.
II your wife or husband died
during the year, you are consid-
cred married for the whole year
Therefore, you can file a joint re-
turn, getting the benefit of the full
exemptions and the split income
to lower your tax.

wife tax prOblems.)

A pain In your back is bad. But
whenit puts lines in your face it's
worse. And that's just what it
can do. So how about getting rid
of both IN one fell swoop?
A backache can stem from any
number of bad habits of which you
may be totally unconscious. A
first step toward cure should be
your careful examination of how
you stand, sit and move.
Do you manage home? Then
take stock of the motions you go
through in performing your tasks.
Do you wear ill-f1tting shoes or
bedroom slippers around the
house? II so, your body isn't
getting the support it needs. Fur
thermore, your feet will spread
and weaken. causing a chain re-
action to set in. Your weakened
feet will cause you to stand and.
walk incorrectly. And eventually,
the strain will localize in your
lower back.
