reimbursement of your moving expenses,
your best bet from tax viewpoint is to
hold off your move until 1864. If you can do
this, you win give yourself chance to de
duct your moving expenses if the 1868 bill
becomes law. If you move in 1858, you can
not possibly deduct your moving expenses
under the Treaslmy's present rules.
The 1853 tax bill also would Eberalize
the provisions governing deduction for child
care expenses. Under todag's rule, certain
persons can deduct up to $500 of expenses
a year for the care of a Child under 12
when the expenses are necessary in order
to enable the taxpayer 10 work. This rule
would be expanded in three ways.
ID The expenses would be made de-
ductible for children under 13 instead Of
10 as at present
% Certain persons entitled to the child
care deduction could deduct llp to 5000 OF
actual expenses instead Of only $500 as at
present. This would apply if the taxpayer
has two or more children or physically or
mentally incapacitated dependents.
80 The rule would be liberalized for
married man whose wife is living during
the taxable year. Today, he cannot deduct
costs of child care, but under the bin. he
would be eligible for the deduction (sllb-
ject 10 various linlitations) fl tis wife is
incapacitated or institutionalized for a
period OF at least 80 consecutive days (or
less If it ends with her deatal).

If you are an employe moving to new
Job location or a person deducting child
care expenses, the 1868 tax bill would give
you new tax advantages. Below you'll read
what you can do this year TO make sure
you cash in on these breaks If they become
law.
The Treasury has sttmfy rule today
for employees who spend money moving
from one job location to another IF tle
employe is required by his present en-
ployer TO move 10 new location for the
employers benefit, the money the en-
ployer pays 10 reimburse him for his NOV
ing expenses is not counted as income to
the er11pdoye. But If the egnploye moves
to a new location for his own convenience
or fer a new employer, the money the
employer pays to reimburse him for his
moving expenses is counted as income to
the ernrloye. What's more, the ernpioye
cannot deduct his moving expenses.
The House-passed tax bill contains
provision which would simplify the whole
meter. Beginning In 1854, ah ernploye
could deduct his reasonable moving ex-
penses involved in starssng work at new
job location.
The deduction would be allowed in ad-

be allowed whether the move was for the

WASHINGTON - The citizen
reads in his newspaper that the
Senate Commerce Committee
has reported a bill which, if
enacted into law, would bar ra-
cial or religious discrimination
in hotels, motels, restaurants,
theaters, retail stores and al
most every other place Of busi-
ness serving the public. AT first
glance, this looks like a worthy
measure. For who really be-
lieves that racial or religious
discrimination in public places
is in iteelf morally justified?
But this very proposal strikes
at the heart of constitutional
government in the United States.
There isn't the slightest consti-
tuional basis for the passage
of such a bill. In fact, the SUI
preme Court of the U ii e d
States has never stretched the
so-called commerce clause" of
the Constitution to uphold any
measure even remotely resemb-
ling the bill just reported to the
Senate by its commerce COM
mittee.
Almost every American who
doesn't believe that 'the end
iustifies the means" and who
feels that, no matter how grave
the injustice, it should be cur
ed only by on titu tienal
means will find himself won
dering whether the action Of
the Senate committee indicates
a trend toward an abandon
ment of the safeguards of the
Constitution. He will ask him.
self whether mobocracy - or
"street demonstrations" plus
threats has intimidated
members of Congress and caus-
ed them to support a measure
which most of them know in
their hearts is not constitution
al.
There is a way to correct
any injustice done any group
in the community if present
constitutional provisions do not
apply. 1t can be done by amend
ing the Constitution. This re-
quires a wto-thirds vote Of both
houses of Congress and rati-
fication by three-fourths of the
states. The argument is made
that this process is too slow
and that it's quicker to appoint
judges who will rewrite the
Constitution by judicial opinion.
But the courts would thereby
usurp a power they never real
ly were granted by the Consti-
tuion. The courts are authoriz-
ed to interpret" but not to
rewrite, the. Constitution.
The new bill reported from
the Senate Commerce Commit
te makes the broad statement
that racial or religious discrim-
nation is "a violation Of the
spirit and letter" Of the Consti-
tuition. But the only place where
the Constitution forbids action
that denies 'equal protection
to all citizens is in the Four
teenth Amendment, and this
deals with state action alone.
The Supreme Court in 1883,
moreover, ruled that the feder-
al government itself couldn't
legally pass a ''public accom-
modations' law based on the
Fourteenth Amendment to deal
with private discrimination.

is simply equal opportunities for
all.
Anyone who speaks, as Profess
Sor Haldane does, of inherent in
equality is bound to bring down
wrath upon his head. At the very
least he will be accused of deni-
grating democracy. At the worst
he will be charged with preaching
racism, with giving support to the
likes of the Nazis or the remnants
of the Ku Klux Klan.
Yet the truth will not go away
because some people may use it
as spurious argument to segre-
gate schools in Alabama. And we
don't think that recognizing the
inherent inequality among peoples
need really pose any philosophical
dilemma or destroy the democrat
ic idea.
That trouble arises only when
people confuse inequalities with
some abstract idea of superiority
and inferiority. We are unequal in
some natural endowments to both
Mickey Mantle and Professor Hal
dane, and they to each other.
Whether any of us is inferior to
the other, depends entirely on
what you are talking about. But
it is not necessary to deny the in
equalities to insist upon the equal
rights Of all of us as human be-
ings.
And it is certainly not neces-
sary to deny the inherent differ
ences among people to support the
objective of wider opportunities
for all people. In the civil rights
struggle, for example, it is totally
irrelevant whether the Negro peo-
pie as a group have less, equal or
superior natural intelligence than
their white counterparts. What is
relevant is that we do the best we
can in public education to provide
each white child and each Negro
child with the kind of education
suitable to his natural endow-
mentS.
That is why it is wrong to have
an educational policy which forces
all children, whether they're white
or Negro, into the same classroom
with the same curriculum, just as
it is equally wrong to deny pub
lie classroom to any child solely
because of the color of his skin and
irrespective of his Individual abil-
tiles. Both attitudes, though they
be now joined in battle, are social
ly evil because each in its own
way denies the truth of the inborn
differences in people.
AS Professor Haldane put it,
"Any satisfactory political and &C.
ononic system must be based on
the recognition Of human inequal-
ity." Perhaps the world would be
better if that were not so. But
nothing is ever made better by
denying what is true.

pie are different. Save perhaps

telligence, interests, aptitudes or
natural Skills.
This commonplace observation
is even more apparent to teachers
whose classrooms are filled with
children from many families.
Some pupils are Inherently more
intelligent in the "bookish" sense;
some more skilled in manual dex-
terity. Some born with a natural
love for music; others with a tin
ear.
And anyone who has ever trav-
elled beyond the borders of his
native country knows that races,
too, differ from one another. In
some cases the differences are
slight, due mainly to custom or
tradition. In other cases they are
marked; there are tribes In re-
mote places with few members
able to follow thought processes
which are simple to the average
European or American first
grader.
Nonetheless, Professor ]. B. S.
Haldane, the distinguished British
philosopher-scientist, startled the
international Congress Of Genetics
in Geneva-and made newspaper
headlines-when he said right out
loud what everybody knows.
Professor Haldane said that
greater attention needs to be paid
to human genetic diversity, and
that there is no evidence that
either individuals or races are
equal in their natural endowment.
Moreover, he said some of these
inequalities are genetic, or inborn.
That is, there are limits to what
can be done to equalize mems
abilities by equalizing their en-
vironmental opportunities, as by
education, for example.
What makes this heresy is that
it runs counter to SO many of the
official social, political and phil
osophic attitudes of the day, ex-
pressed in everything from our
foreign aid program to elementary
education. There the premise is
that all men are created equal not
only in their rights as human be-
ings but also in their endowments;
the differences are mainly due to
environment.
Thus education and training,
the argument runs, are all that is
necessary to bring an emerging
nation Of backward people to full
civilized estate; they are backward
only because they have not been
SO lucky in their history. Among
individuals here at home differ
ences of estate are also mainly
differences in opportunity; the key
