The feeling that business expenses get much
more Ienient treatment from the income-tax
collector than educational expenses do was
also expressed in somewhat different dimen-
sions by a Los Angeles educator who wrote,
The executives Of dairy company who went
on tieer-hunting trip got these expenses
deducted from the income Of their business
with the argument that the trip gave the busi-
ness valuable publicity. But professor who
went to Europe to gather material for his
research work wasn't allowed to deduct his
expenses. If you don't believe it-and
admit it sounds incredible - read the Califor-

been. But the article emphasized that there

Perhaps good way to improve the finan-
cial position Of college professors, which GER
tainly could stand improving, would be to
finance more legal tests Of whether or not they
are getting a proper break from the tax
collector.
Depreciation Deduction
1t was also commended by some Of my cor
respondents that the deductions from their
taxable income which are allowed to business
firms because Of wear and tear on their facili-
ties ought to be matched for individuals.
I'VE need WEAR and TEAR deduction on

larry that produced by growing children.

such an awful ordeal"
The larger volumes Of complaint that the
tax load IS unfairly appCrticned came from:
I. Unmarried men and women, whose tax
and other headaches l am dealing with IN
another article.
z. Those supporting ailing relatives.
q. Parents with heavy educational bills.
4. Those who think the income tax collec-
tor treats business firms lot better than he
treats individuals in the allowances made for
expenses and wear and tear.
TYPICAL Of the complaints Of those who are
supporting sick and aiIing relatives is this let
ter from q lady in New York City: I'm sup
porting my mother in q nursing home We are
under very heavy expense. II seems to me
most unfair that We have no inccme-tax relief

One answer 70 this came from father IN
Birmingham, AIa., with the same general
problem: "Aulend the Internal Revenue Code

ports an invalid (prOvided the invalid has no
incOme) IN additional exemption Of $500
plu deduction IN fun Of al Of the invalid's
recognized medical expenses"
Education Exemption
The feeling that the expenses Of education,
particularly college and university education,
should be deductible was based on two general
convictions. One was that il IS unfair to have
il otherwise. The other was that such step
would speed the elimination Of shortages Of
trained people in key professional fields.
Thus, housewife in Rochester, wrote, "H
college expenses were dednetible, more scien-
lists, teachers and other needed people
could be developed" And she vigorously
ADDED, please work toward this now!!"
Emphasizing what she regards as the element
Of fairness involved, a mother Of four children
in Duxbury, Mass. wrote, IF company execu-
tives arc able to have expense accounts, Ger
tainly the expense Of getting children educated
should be deductible from the income tax"

SET BACK AT NORFOLK -
Democracy as it exists in Amer
lea, Walt Whitman once wrote,
is ''life's gymnasium, not of good
only. but Of ALL" A few days ago
at Norfolk, Va. the aptness of
these remarks became apparent.
In that city, where six public
schools have been closed 70 r
weeks. the voters by a 81 mar
Gin still favored segregation.
Reports coming to this news
center offer all sorts of eXplana-
tons for what happened. t h e
turnout was small. There was a
loaded s'footnote" at the bottom
of the ballots unduly influencing
the voters. The public was be-
wildered. There undoubtedly
were other local factors of which
outsiders are unaware.
Whatever the full explanation,
one point really emerges from
the Norfolk vote:
A massive education job is yet
to be done by those who favor
compliance with the Supreme
Court migration d e cisio n.
Whether we like to admit it or
not. there are thousands Of white
men and women who still regard

V. P: You come close to saying
that nobody but yourself believed
that slaves were included in the
declaration of the right to life,

son would agree with such

Madison: I remember when my

Continental Congress. 1t was
customary when runaway slaves
were recaptured to ship them to
the West Indies. | could not think

price of so much blood, and had
proclaimed SO often to be the

an indentured servant and re-
hired him as my valet. Poor fell

he was swept from ship at sea

V.P.; But you gentlemen were

ure of power in defiances of the
Constitution, is attempting to des-
troy the sovereignty and indie
pendence of the independent and
sovereign State of Virginia, to
consolidate the union of free and
independent states into a Federal
tyranny and wipe out the hber-
ties of the people.
jefferson: That is distressing
indeed I uttered many warnings
against the Federal judges in my
day. They were then, in fact, the
corps of sappers and miners,
steadily working to undermine
the independent rights of the
states, and to consolidate all
power in the hands of that gov

tell me, what particular liberty is

from Virginia?
v. P: 1t is trying to establish
equality between whites and Neg
roes - demanding that Virginia
admit Negroes to white schools
and state parks.
Jefferson: I hold this truth to
be selfevident, that all men are
created equal; that they are en-
dowed by their creator with in
herent and inalienable rights:
that among these are life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness.
v. P: I agree with you com
pletely, Mr. Jefferson, in the
sense of those words as you I'M
derstood them in 1916. But should
the Supreme Court give them 9
different meaning today?

v. P: You agree, then tha'
since Negroes were held in sla-
very in 1875 - all of you gentle

you did not declare them to be
equal to white men, and the Su.

cruel war against human nature
itself, violating its most sacred
rights of life and liberty in the

and carrying them into slavery

Mr.. Mitchell called for out

He also proposed clarifying

Voting Parity Is Issue
They are more interested in

mere parity in numbers. which
at least some of them admit
would be largely meaningless.
There is no voting at the

not insist finally on bringing
Czechoslovakia and Roumania

France or Italy.
But in voting bodies like the

Wet officials say their position
is firm. They believe that their
