1t was an American Civil
War general Gen. Russell
Hsstings--who first saw the
Yankee dollar possibilities in
the white Easter flower. He
came here for his health in
1877, 20 years after the first
lily bulbs had been planted,
and was enchanted.
Small Start
He set out a few small beds
in the Point Shares section of
Pembroke Parish. In 1880 he
sent a shipment of bulbs to
New York and the lily industry
was under way.
Today more than 2 million
lily heads and blooms are
shipped annually throughout
the world.
And it was Dick Rutherford
who had the audacity to send
the lilies into Alaska's interior.
Mr.. Rutherford-he got out of
the lily business in 1941 to
reopen Tom Moore's Tavern
sent the lilies on a 17-day ship
journey to Alaska, with the
final leg of the trip by dogsled
to a parish priest who used
them to decorate his altar at
Easter time.
, The lilies are but one spring
floral attraction here. A drive
through the rural parishes re-
veals brilliance at virtually
every turn-and along Ber-
muda's sinuous roads the turns
are many.

was held that such an expense,

There has been a great deal
of discussion concerning expenses
sustained by members of part
nerships and officers of corpora

that such an expense should
form the basis of an expense
account submitted to the partner
ship or the employer, and that
reimbursement to the individual
should be made therefor. If the
agreement, and it should be
written, contains a provision
concerning the expenses of part

Ordinary and necessary bust
ness expenses include a lot of
questionable items, but good &C
counting procedure may be used
as a rule. The expenses must be
both ordinary and necessary and
not ordinary or necessary. Ordi-
nary and necessary business ex-
penSeS usually include all ex-
pense which is not capital
expense. Capital expense in
cludeS those OUTLAWS, the benefit
from which will not be realized
by the taxpayer during any one
accounting period. There is a
departure from this rule with
respect to professional men, in
that it is suggested that they
charge as expense the cost of
library, ct cetera. This is done
for the reason that professional
men usually do not keep a COM
plete record which would prop
erly support a deduction for
depreciation. The Legislature, in
1916, liberaliZed the o h a s e
ordinary and necessary business

auctions which may be claimed
the following amendment to the
statute:
Provided that there may
also be deducted all ordinary

sessions; and teachers while
attending summer school or
taking special courses when

There are several musical
events in Washington's near
future which are Of unusual
interest for one reason or
another. For example. Svia-
toslav Richter. the Russian
pianist who comes to town
for the first time next Sat-
urday afternoon. Can his
playing possibly be any more
astounding than his creation
as a popular hero comparable
to Callas and Van Cliburn?
If Sol Hurok and the Rus
sian Bureau of Culture told
their stories, which doubtless
are closely interviewer, would
we not have an unsurpassed
history of how a star is
made?
When Emil Gilels first
came to America a few years
ago. the name Of Richter was
a ghostly whisper, a murmer
that was heard only indis-
tinctly and only by a few with
a special interest in pianists.
"Gilels is good, but they're
keeping back their best play
er - q young man named
Richter" You would be mo-
mentarily puzzled, for the
name seemed German rather
than Russian, and then you
would forget about it, for it
seemed unlikely that there
was a Russian pianist con-
spicuously better than Gilels.
AS the months went by
Richter was heard on phono-
graph records-not usually
on the most popular labels,
and not very frequently.
writers of musical journalism
who happened to hear the
records were Immediately
impressed. and wrote their
little notices, but ! can re-
member not a single article
about Richter written for the
general impressionable and
excitable public. He was not
