in exchange for a birthright of
equality That is what you are
going to have to do unless you
want Negroes living next to
YOU"
Is there any other conclusion
at which one could arrive after
reading your column? If so,
please, in all fairness, tell us
what it is.
Say what you will about the
South, and the Lord only knows
plenty has been said, but one
word you can never use to de-
scribe them-truthfully, that is
lis the word "hypocrites." In
my view, the method you adj
vocate to meet the problem
here in Montgomery can be de-
scribed by no other word.
The South has been frank
with the Negro. 1t has been
honest with him. / am afraid
that is more than you can say
when you tell the Negro: IF
you have SIS, 700 to buy a house
in Mr.. Migrants housing prof.
ect, welcome to Montgomery
County"
Where is your compassion
you profess for the bulk of the
Negro race who could really
use help? Are you not saying
to them: ITO hell with you. You
don't have $25,0O0"
So typical it is of the North.
ern Indignation approach. So
well does it illustrate the ex-
ample of deceit and hypocrisy it
would set for the South to fol-
lows t / IL segregation, Of
course, but the northern brand
that offers a "meSs of pottage"
to the few who can afford to
buy it, while completely ignor-
ing the vast majority who can't.
Having been born there and
proud of it, l can tell you the
South will never deceive the Ne
gro-now, next year or ever.
AS said before, the South has
been honest with the Negro.
He wasn't given social equality
that has to be earned-not
given-but he wasn't handed an
empty sack and told it was
.chock full of social equality
only to find it was as empty
as the heads of some of these
do-gooders who mount their
white chargers and ride off in
all directions to remake the
worlds ere sunset.
AS for those breast beaters
who leave the dishes in the sink
to run down to Woodies to
parade with their placards, all
/ can say is that if their dear
humanitarian hearts beat so
with companssion for the Ne
gro, I'm sure the District well
fare agencies can use their vol
unteer help any time they care
to offer it. The publicity may be
lacking and there will be less
chance to be seen carrying the
torch, but the spiritual uplift
will more than compensate.
In closing, I'd like to ask the
editor just why he said the Chi
cago decision was only prob
ably" correct? I'm sure he
doesn't so qualify his opinion of
the 1854 school decision for 90
years would have justified such
a qualification. Could it posi-
bly, be that opinions of opinions
vary with approval or dis
approval?

CRY Election

Mr.. Edward Mack's logic
escapes me, but the conclusion
is unacceptable. Obviously we
cannot permit those rebellious
Hungerford Towners to spill
any more blood. How dare they
have the audacity to be inter-
ested in their own neighbor-
hood? How can they be so
treasonous as to support their
neighbor Dave Rosoff for City
Council in opposition to Mr..
Mack's chosen few?
Is Mr.. Mack suggesting that
Hungerford Towne should Sc.
cede?

me of my childhood days. Sc
on and on the chain of life
stretches out, endless and ever
lasting.
With the season and the
children in their Easter finery,
co ored eggs, and the bunny
rabbit, comes a memory OF
other casters, other children
and Easter hats, New hats for
Easter, as you must know, are
OF great Importance to little
girls and big ones too. I'll al
ways remember that wide leg
horn hat with the lilies of the
valley, dancing around the
crown, it was pretty and I was
brimming over with joy. My
Easter outfit always seemed to
be light blue.
But the year of the leghorn
hat, mama made me a pink
silk dress, with a lace yoke.
On the Saturday night before
Easter, Mama rolled my hair
up on rags, next morning I had
a head full of curls, under my
new hat. Was I dressed up,
as D switched off to Sunday
School dressed out in lovely
pink. Never shall I forget that
pink Easter Sunday, long ago.
Many of us today feel that the
display of new clothes on Eas-
ter go a bit too far; however
ancient history shows the Gus
tom goes back to ancient China,
when the richly gwned Mandar-
ines, haughtily displayed their
gorgeous robes.
Into each life comes an
Easter, a rebirth. 1t may come
when one is quite young, or in
middle life, or even in old age,
the important thing is that each
person come forth from the
tomb and know the Joy and
peace of salvation, and the hap
piness that the promise OF
eternal life will be ours.

Day of Resurrection

Day of Resurrection
In three days, Easter Sunday
will dawn, we hope for a bright
day full of sunshine. Easter was
on March the % in 1918 and
won't happen again in this cen
tury; in 1943 Easter was on
April Is, and this won't happen
again in the 29th century.
More people attend church
services on Easter Sunday than
any other day; however re-
cords show that Christmas ana
Mothers Day run it a close
second. On or after the first
day of spring there is always a
tuIl moon and Easter Day
would be the first Sunday after
that full moon.
The Day of Resurrection IS
at hand. 1 can see the signs all
about me. The earth gives for
t h its blossoms in fullillment
of Gods promise of everlasting
life. This is the day that Chris
tians all over the world rejoice
that Christ the Lord is risen.
Yet, in the marble halls OF
the United Nations there is no
mention of Jesus; there IS no
acknowledgement to God. But
we in the simple country side
can observe and enjoy his han
diwork. The daffodils have
spun their gold and departed.
Yet we are not sad at their
going, for we knwo in our hearts
they will return. The dogwood
is ready to burst into bloom and
lift their snow white arms to
the soft blue sky.
The forsythia and the burninq
bush are bowling out, giving
way to the iris and the rose.
Each to its own time. The lit
tie flowers so beloved by child
rem are here: panies, and
their little brother, johny-jump-
ups, violets, hyacinths and
Star of Bethlehem, all remind

OUR MISSISSIPPI INCOME TAX LAW
Deductions = Depreciation, Depletion.
Contributions

many individuals who buy roy
alties. The cost of such roy
atty is subject to depletion. In
many cases the cost of the roy
atty is nominal and will be less
than 1870 of the gross income
received in the first year;
therefore, bear in mind that in
such a case cost must be deter
mined, and depletion is limited
to such cost. The United States
Government. for income tax
purposes, allows an arbitrary de-
duction of 27R% of the gross
income. The State does not. With
respect to lease rental or lease
bonus, the entire sum received
is rental income and no charge
for depletion may be applied
thereto.
Contributions or gifts to in
dividuals may not be deducted.
When made to organizations,
they may. Such contributions
may be deducted in a sum not
to exceed 1919 of the net income
without the benefit of that de-
duction, when made to religious,
charitable, scientific or educa-
tional organizations, organized
and operated for those purposes.
A nonresident may deduct a part
of such contributions made to
such organizations operating
within the State of Mississippi,
and that part is measured by
the relation that the Mississippi
income bears to the total gross
income from all sources.
Deductions may not be esti-
mated. The taxpayer must
establish his right to claim them,
and the burden Is ON him to
prove his claim.
The 1852 Session of the Legis-
lature provided that from and
after January l, 1852, there may
be deducted a standard deduc-
ton which is almost identical
with that provided for in the
Federal Income Tax Law. The
Federal statute refers to "non-
business" deductions. The Mis-
|sissippi statute provides that this
standard deduction is in lieu
of interest and taxes, other
than those paid in connection
with and on account of trade,
business or rental property;
losses sustained which are
not connected with the regular
trade or business or rental prop.
erty; and contributions. The
standard deduction is limited to
a sum which would be not more
than $4,000 or 1919 of the gross
income of each individual tax
payer. If husband and wife file
joint or separate returns, each
may claim this specific deduc-
ton, bearing in mind that the
deduction is limited to 1919 of
the gross income or $4,000,
whichever is less. In a case
where husband and wife file
separate returns, the same pro-
cedure must be followed by each
spouse in that deductions must
be claimed in detail on both
returns, or the specific deduction
may be taken. This is an cleo
ton; when exercised. it must be
adhered to.
