Koehler publishing house" of Elberfeld was sealed up by the secret police because it printed books and brochures by the Con- fessional Synod in which the Ros- enberg teachings were denounced from the Christian point of view The Apologetische Zentrale at Spandau, which brought out chief- 1y writings by Rev. Kluenneth of the Confessional Synod, was also “liquidated.” Kuenneth is protes- tantism’s chief literary opponent of Rosenberg, just as the Rev. Martin Niemoeller, who has been in jail since July, 1937, is the chief pulpit fighter against neo-paganism. e ee——— James McNeill Whistler was born in the United States but spent most of his life in Europe. 3 IT HAPPENED IN 1937 . . .

Beginning with 1937 sunspots began to increase with a rapidity unmatched during the last 20 years, and many scientists suspect the phenomenon bears definite relation to human behavior. Not only do the sunspots, which are gigantic whirlpools of metals and gases, cause magnetic storms, but one school of astronomy holds that such human activity as wars, strikes, stock market operations, human moods, industrial production—even the length of women'’s dresses— is affected by the spots. Scientists admit a great deal of study will be required before this theory is definitely established. @ YOUR INCOME T | | | DEDUCTION FOR TRAVELING EXPENSES + | | | \ | I | * To oblain a deduction for travel- ng expenses, which form an impor- tant item in the returns of many taxpayers, certain regulations must be observed. ‘The taxpayer is required to attach to his return a statement showing the nature of business in which en- gaged, number of days away from home during the taxable year on account of businss, total amount of expense incidental to meals and lodging, and total amount of “other expenses” Incident to travel and claimed as a deduction.

They are limited to such expenses as are reasonable and necessary in the conduct of the business and directly attributable to it. Traveling expenses incurred = in connection with a journey to an- other city to accept or seek employ- ment are not deductible.
