Second Negro Shot
By White Man Dies

JACKSON, Miss, Mar. 20 (P.
The second of two Negroes.
shot by a white cafe operator
on March 9, died at University
Medical Center yesterday.
Hospital authorities identified
the dead man as Isom Cassell
and said he died of gunshot
wounds of the neck which had
paralyzed him since the shoot
ing.
Another Negro, Jeffie Lee
White. 25, died a few hours after
the shooting.
Chief of Detectives M. B.
Pierce charged w. L. Lynch, jr..
rs, with murder in the death
Iof Mr.. White.
He said Lynch was released
on $4,000 bond, half for the
murder charge and half for q
charge of shooting Mr.. Cassell
with intent to kill. Chief Pierce
said he has not charged Lynch
with murder in Mr.. Cassell's
death.
Lynch testified at a prelim-
mary hearing that he shot both
men when they advanced on him
with an ice pick and a rifle after
fighting between themselves in
his cafe.

Tax Deduction
Pension Plan
Fight Expected

A fight is brewing in Congress
over a plan to let workers ex-
|clude from taxable income the
money they invest toward fu-
Iture pensions.
Railroad labor unions are
Ipushing legislation. now before
a House subcommittee, to give
Irail workers such tax exemp-
Ition for contributions toward
their retirement plan. separate
from the social security system.
However, Secretary Of the
Treasury Humphrey has eau
ltioned that the principle, If
adopted. could be extended to
social security charges and the
costs of all pension or annuity
plans, public or private.
In that event, Mr.. Humphrey
Estimates the Federal tax loss
would run about 50 billion year.
Call Estimates Too High
The rail unions claim that Mr..
Humphreys estimates are con-
siderably inflated. They chal-
lenge his calculation that the
tax loss from rail workers alone
would be $40 million a year.
The unions say it probably would
be only half that amount.
The rail unions. always
politically influential with Con-
gress, argue that Congress has
made union dues tax deductible.
So. they ask. why not treat the
cost Of future pensions the same
way?
They point out that contribu-
tions employers make toward
workers pension plans are tax
deductible as a business cost.
A Commerce subcommittee
has completed hearings on the
rail retirement bill. 1t would
boost benefits by Is per cent
and increase contributions paid
by employers and employees from
the present 6A per cent each
on a workers pay to 7A per
cent each.
BY excluding the amount Of
the railroad workers ccNtribu-
ton from his taxable income,
the worker would get a tax saw
ing, so the net cost to him for
expanded benefits would be about
Is per cent of pay-or less than
he is now paying for smaller
benefits.
Sees Shift to Public
Mr.. Humphrey suggested this
would shift part Of the rail l'en-
sion costs to the general public.
But A. E. Lyon, executive sec
retary of the Railway Labor Ex-
ecutives Association, contended
the tax loss could be consider
ably more If the unions, baked
in their present plan. should de-
mand the railroads pay the full
cost of the pension program.
More than IS House members
have agreed to sponsor measures
similar to the rail union bill.
Senator Bender, Republican Of
Ohio. has introduced similar
bill and Senate members of both
parties are cosponsors.

Taneerines Good
For Color During
Christmas Days

Tangerines offer good possibility
for variety in fruit bowls, between
meal snacks, Christmas stocking
treats or gift packages, and ap-
petiZing wintertime salads. This is
the season when tangerines are
most plentiful, although Extension
Specialists in Marketing Informa-
tion for Consumers at Ohio State
University point out that these cit
rus specialities are available from
November through May.
Incidentally, the Extension folks
call attention to the fact that the
tangerine has two close relatives
on the market now, too. One oi
these is the 'satsuma." Sounds like
a Japanese cousin, doesn't it? Ac-
tually, the satsuma is very much
like the tangerine in shape and ap-
pearance, except that it is lighter
in color Where the tangerine is
deep orange-red to red in color
the satsuma is yellow to orange.
yellow.
The pulp of the tangerine is very
tender and rich in flavor, with a
definite spicy aroma. 1t has q
smooth, loose skin, which some.
times separates from the pulp en-
tirely as the fruit ripenS. The sat-
suma has a less spicy flavor, and
the rind is thicker and coarser
than chat of the tangerine.
The other fruit currently on the
market from the tangerine family
is called "tangelo." 1t is n.y.
brid, or cross between the tang
crime and the grapefruit. 1t is most
commonly used in the express fruit
box which is becoming more pop
ular as a gift idea. The tangelo has
a highly colored, smooth skin.
Give your appetite and your
health a holiday break by eating
tangerines, satSumaS, or tangelos
often.

Phi Beta Psi To Spread Cheer
Symbols Of Christmas" On Program

Ii is always merry time when
Phi Betes' assemble for their an
nual holiday get-together, but
there were obs and abs from all
sides for the extra flourish which
seemed to have been given by the
1856 committee that planned for
the party in the rooms Tuesday
night.
Everywhere were appropriate
yuletide ornamentations but the
eye-catching feature was the large
Christmas tree laden with glitter
and submerged around the bottom
with heaps of gifts for everyone.
This had been placed next to the
red brick chimney from which red
coated, be-whiskered Saint Nick
climbed when it came time for
passing out gifts.
For the program Mrs. Harold
Welsh gave unique and most
meaningful story of Symbols of
Christmas" delightful, original
story of number of the Holy sea-
sons traditions.
For the opening and closing of
the meeting, Mrs. Robert Halter
man, the president, read appropri-
ate stories and carol sing was
directed by Mrs. Kenneth Fichner
with Mrs. Cletus Higgins as ac-
companiSt.
Always mindful of others, the
sorority, voted a gift of $25 to the
Madison County tuberculosis and
Health Association for its annual
Seal Sale, and SIPS for Christmas
for needy families, which will be
taken care of by special COM
Inittee.
AS a special gift to the sorority,
Mrs. Harold Welsh, national grand
president and Mrs. CletuS Higgins,
national grand secretary, present
ed a handsome white satin cere-
monial cloth with red fringe and
white satin kneeling pad bound
with red to be used on very special
occasions.
The beautifully wrapped and
handsome gifts were taken from
beneath the tree and distributed
by Miss Joan Brady in the guise of
Sanity. Then came a great box
which contained a gift for every
one from Mrs. Halterman, the
most original and artistic aprons
which she had made as a remem-
brance from her. Then came down
part of the decorations, from over
the fireplace, a small Christmas
tree which turned out to be a
money" tree. One by one the tiny
sequin trimmed felt socks that
held play money" were handed to
each one as a lapel decoration.
These had been made by Mrs. Har-
old Hunter Another special gift
was found marked for Phi Beta
Psi from the patronesses, Miss
Louise Richmond and Miss Mar
garet Converse. A lighted cake was
presented Mrs. James Cummins in
remembrance of her wedding an
niversary.
