On Tax InstuIlment

The Internal Revenue Service
today pointed out to taxpayers
who must pay a fourth-quartei
estimated tax installment or
1855 income. that Tuesday is the
last day to do 80.
Those taxpayers. however, who
are able to make a complete re.
turn on 1886 income and make
the payment by January 81 anc
who have received a fourth
quarter installment notice will
find their work simplified. In
stead Of forwarding the esti-
mated quarterly tax. they may
attach the estimated bill to the
completed return for the year
for which they make the pay

Taxpayers needing advice and
information may obtain it by
calling the Interal Revenue
Service, ST. 3-8400, and asking

WILKINS TELLS
GA. NAACP. is
TAX FREE

NEW YORK - Commenting on
the Georgia State Revenue De-
partment'S action last week in
assessing the NAACP $17,495 for
back income taxes, NAACP ex-
ecutive secretary Roy Wilkins has
pointed out that the association
is tax-exempt under a ruling OF
the u. S. Internal Revenue Ser
vice.
The Georgia revenue agency
assessment was made on June 81.
On the same day Mr.. Wilkins said
in a public statement.
1.-THE NAACP is a non-profit,
tsx-exempt membership corpora
ton under a ruling of the United
States Internal Revenue Service
made in 1941. Under this ruling
we have never paid any income
tax, federal or state, in any state.
Until some authoritative ruling is
made to the contrary, we do not
believe we are liable for the pay
ments of state inc taxes"

Women Voters Seek
To Skirt Race Law
BY SAM EASTMAN

Arlington's political candi-
dates are being invited by the
League Of Women Voters to
debate the campaign issues this
year before an invited audience.
rather than at a public meet
ing.
In this way. the league feels
it will not have to cope with a
Virginia law, now being tested
in the courts. which calls for
racially segregated audiences at
public assemblies.
Candidates in both the Coun-
ty Board race and the House
Of Delegates contest are being
asked to speak at q single Joint
session. The audience viii be
made up Of League members
and their invited guests only.
Last year the League, along
with more than 20 other county
organizations. sponsored five
public meetings to hear the
County Board candidates. The
first three meetings were not
segregated but. to comply with
q ruling by Attorney General
j. Lindsay Almond. jr.. the au-
diences at the final two ses-
sions were seated by race.
At the last meeting. a white
woman, Miss Faith Bissell. set
out to test the State segrega-
ton law. She was arrested for
sitting beside a colored man,
was fined SIS in County Court,
lost again in Circuit Court and
her case is now pending before
the State Supreme Court.
Today. in answer to a Ques-
ton, Mrs. Sue Stubs. the
Leagues acting president, said
there are several reasons for
the decision against holding
public candidate meetings.
1T wasn't just the segrega-
ton decision. We didn't have
the audiences last year that we
had in previous years. she ex-
planned.
Mrs. Stubs said that League
officials last December held a
post mortem" and decided
against initiating the open
meetings again this year. The
other county groups may well
decide to sponsor their own
meetings this year, she empha-
sized.
The date for the Leagues by
invitation-only gathering is set
tentatively for October "a.

The Senate this afternoon
voted 80 to 0 to set aside de-
bate on the civil rights bill =
take up Immediately the con-
ference report on the Defense
Department appropriations bill.
Indications were that action
would be completed quickly.
Once the Defense Department
bill is out of the way, leaders
hoped to quickly end the emer-
gency for the Department Of
Agriculture, but no immediate
relief was in sight for other
agencies left without money or
authorization since last mid
night.
Republican Leader Knowland
indicated he does not expect
any action today to revive the
Small Business Administration
or to provide emergency funds
for foreign aid, the Atomic
Energy Commission and other
agencies left without operating
expenses last midnight.
Meanwhile, a White House
statement emphasized that the
Government now has no legal
authority to make payrolls for
about 2.8 million military per.
sonnet and LIS million civilian
employees in affected agencies.
Asked SBA to Stay on Job
President Eisenhower asked
1900 Small Business Admins
tration employees to stay on the
job because he hopes the Sem
ate will vote authority to con.
tinue the SBA as soon as pos
sible. The statement said he
also believes the Senate will
act to provide funds for other
agencies.
Senator Knowland pointed
out that a move to relieve these
other agencies would displace
the civil rights bill, unless it
could be done by unanimous
consent.
The same is not true of the
bills for Defense and Agricul-
ture, because they occupy a
privileged status as conference
reports. which can be taken up
without diSplacing the pending
busineSS-civil rights.
The rules also make it clear
that taking up these conference
reports by motion will not de-
prive the civil rights bill of its
status as the pending business
the moment the conference re-
ports are acted upon.
Blocked by Morse
The dilemma in which q
large part of the Government
finds itself today was intensi-
fed by Senator Morse. Demo-
crat of Oregon. when he blocked
a unanimous consent agreement

permit action on these emer-
gency measures.

The most efficient sewerage
system suggested so far for
Washington would cost $3l7
million through 1872. but Po-
tomac River waters in the
lower city area still would be
unit for swimming.
That was the conclusion
drawn by a special board OF
sanitary engineers in a report
submitted today to the Dis
trica Commissioners.
A $15l-million Improvement
program, which likewise would
leave the river too dirty for
bathing. was favored in the re-
port instead of the more ex-
pensive undertaking.
The $751; million system had
been described previously when
the special boards findings on
that project were Endorsed by
the Public Works Program
Committee.
Reported by Experts
The report was handed to
the District Commissioners by
three Of the Nations eading
specialists in the field. TheY
are Samuel A. Greeley. Frank
A. Marston and Gustav j. Re-
quardt.
The board was retained, at
a cost Of $4,000, to study
Washington's sewerage system
and make practicable recon-
mendations for its improve
ment. A preliminary study
which preceded the boards
analysis cost an additional
$50, 900.
Many proponents Of a Po-
tomac cleanup have urged pol
luton abatement measures that
would enable swimming at all
points in the river from Hams
Point upstream. The engineer
ing board offered these refuta-
tons TO that theory:
/ The cost. of building suf-
flcient sewers would not be off,
set by the limited recreational
benefits that would accrue.
2. The river, downstream
from Rock Greek, still would be
distasteful for swimming, due
to the discoloration caused by
upstream soil erosion and by
insanitary conditions resulting
from storm water street wash
inRs.
3. Aside from the great cost
