'The report shows how important it is that the war against Japan shall be ('H'- riod forward with all possible speed until the barbarous Japs at'0 forced 10 surrender.

WM. R. FRENDBERG The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. Ho maketh me to lic down in green pastures; He leadeth n1C beside the still waters. He resloreth my soul: He guideth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.

Yca, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will. fear no evil; for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort mo. Thou preparest a lable before me in the presence of mine enemics: Thou annoinlest my head with oil; My cup runneth oer, Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life; And shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. -The 23rd Psalm of David. It is not certain when David wrote this psalm.

Ho may have written it when lie was caring for his sheep 0s a shepherd or al some time later: when he was r'0- minded of shepherd work and what God had been to him. However, the psalm is one of the most beautiful that David ever wrote, and without doubt the psalm read oftoner Than any other psalm. "The twenty-third psalm it the nightingale of Psalms. Il is small, homely feather, singing, shyly out. of obscurity; but, oh! it has filled the air of the whole world with melodious joy, greater than the hoart can conceive.

Blessed be the day 011 which That Psalm was born! It has more griefs to rest than philcharmed. osophy of the world. It r'ehas' manded to their dungeon more felon-thoughts, more black doubts, i more thieving sorrow than there are sands on the seashore. It has comforted the noble host of the poor. It has sung courage lo the army of the disappointed.

It has poured balm and consolation into the hearts of the sick, of captives in their dungeons, of widows in their' pinching griefs, of orphans in their loneliness. Dying soldiers have died casier as it was read to them; ghaully hospitals have been illumined. It has visited the prisoner and broken his chains, and, like Peter's angel, led him forth in imagination and sung him back home Nor is its work done. It will go on singing to your children and my children, and. to their children, through all gencrations of time; nor will it fold its wings till the last pilgrim is safc and time ended: and then it shall fly back to the bosom of God, whence it issued, and sound on, mingled with all these sounds of celestial joy which make heaven musical forever." David knew himself as a lamb in need of Shepherd care.

This thought is good for us all. The prophet Isaiah says, "All W'C like sheep have gone astray" and Jesus arocrding to Saint Matthew sces greal crowds, "like sheep have 110 shepherd." David has chosen his shepherd as we learn in the final verse, "The Lord is my shepherd." Now the question comes to uS, one and all. Since we all need a shepherd, whom will we choose? If we, like David, have chosen the Lord, then We alc assured of 8. Shepherd who has laid down His life for us with His holy and precious blood. Truly He is the Shepherd of our souls and there is none beside Him.

As we close let us join with David and sing: "The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want!" Looking at Life By ERICH BRANDEIS Some time I wrote about my. little dog Deuce, when he was 130 sick and wasn't expected to live. Hundreds of letters came in inquiring about him and asking how he was getting along. As I told you, Deuce 'is home again and I hope he will be with quite a few more years. (By the way, that sickness of his left him with an appetite that's nobody's business.

He's cating us out of house and home.) Of all the letters that came in, the one that touched my wife and me the most was one from Wallace Smith of Glendale, West Virginia, who lost his little Scottic' "Gentle Annic." When she died a little while ago, he wrote this poem, which he sent to me. GENTLE ANNIE (1933-1943) The house is so strangely silent Since Annie has gone awayThe night is ud. long and lonely, And long and still is the day. She. was small and.

dark and winsome, With her grave and solemn eyesI forget, and call for But never a sound replica. Inside WASHINGTON Taft Still Seen Army Adamant As Possible About War Candidate News Blackouts to Central Press WASHINGTON As the 1944 presidential race approaches, political observers are watching; Senator Bob Taft, the Ohio Republican -and watching closely. They recall Taft lost the nomination to Wendell Willkie in Philadelphia in 1940, but the sands of Republican sentiment have shifted. Willkie appears to have little chance of once more being the GOP standard bearer. Apparently out.

in front in the GOP political scramble is Governor Thomas E. Dewey of New York state. Observers point out, however, that in event of a deadlock at the Republican Chicago convention, Taft may develop into the fairhaired candidate although he has consistently disavowed any ambition to run for president this year. In this respect he closely follows Dewey's stand. The New York govhas publicly he will fincynor ish out his governorship before tackling a.

presidential campaign. Your Federal Income Tax Our Income Tax System METHODS OF ACCOUNTING A Federal income tax return may prepared in accordance with any method of accounting regularused by the taxpayer which corly reflects his income and exTwo main methods of pendituros. keeping accounts are followed, (a) the cash receipts and disbursements method. method Ordinarily, and (b) nearly the accrun. dividuals use the cash method.

The accrual method is used mostly business concerns. bin the cash receipts and disbursements method all items of income ACTUALLY or CONSTRUCTIVELY received (whether in cash or property or services), and only those amounts actually paid out for deductible expensas, arc shown. Income is "constructively" received when the amount is credited to the account of, or set apart for, the taxpayer, and may be drawn upon by him al any time. Thus, under the cash receipts and disbursements method, a bill rendered by the taxpayer would not constitute income until paid, nOr' would 8 bill rendered to the taxpayer be expense until paid. There would, however, be constructive receipt of a payment if a valid cheek i is received during the taxable year even though the check may not have been deposited or cashed within that period.

Under the accrual method, net income is measured in a broad sense by the excess of income earned over expenses incurred. Under the accrual method, income arises when earned, even though not received, deductible expenses arise when incurred, whether paid or not within the taxable period. When inventories arc carried in the the case of store the accrual method in reporting purchases and sales will clearly reflect income, and the accrual method accordingly should be used. In the case of a professional occupation, such as that of a lawyer or physician, where inventories are not enployed, either the cash receipts and disbursements method or the accrual method may be employed. Business expenses must be distinguished from capital expendilures.

Capital expenditures arc those which result in the acquisition of something of a permanent nature and do not constitute the current cost of running a business, and, therefore, are not deductible as business expenses. While, a distinction between capital expendilure and 3 business expense is often difficult tc draw, a general rule may be ed which is applicable in most cases: Capital expenditures ordinarily result in the acquisition of assets having periods of useful life in excess of one year. Where the period of useful life is one year or lces, that is, where the asset is worn out and discarded within one year from its purchase, the entire cost is deductible from the income for that year. A limitation upon the deductibility of items as business expem3es is that they must be paid or incurred within the laxable year. If the taxpayer is on the cash receipts and disbursements basis, then the expenses must be paid withi nthe year; if he is on the accrual method, such expenses are allowable only to the exlent that they were incurred within the year.

A taxpayer cannot avoid the payment of income taxes by failing to keep books properly. If he keeps no books, O1' his books do not clearly reflect income, then his income will be mined in such manner aS in the opinion of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue clearly reflects his income. Taft, with A favorable record in the United States senate, probably would be highly acceptable to the rank and Alc of the Republicans. Meanwhile, Ohio's Governor John Bricker with a background of sound middlewestern conservative. has been assured of Taft's support.

Bricker at the present time appears to have not too bright 1 8 chance of getting the nomination. THE WAR DEPARTMENT has tossed 8. heavy-handled monkey wrench into the national capital's already-muddled news situation. Despite public resentment over the Army's handling of the Bari ship bombings S. in Patton, Italy, the Lieut.

Gen. George slapping incident in Sicily and other minor items, the War department still holds firmly to the view that it 'has a. "vested interest" in the way war news is presented. This point of view is expressed in the Army guide issue to informa. tion officers, orientation course in.

structors and other personnel The guide, specifcally states that "in time of war the armed forces are creators of news and have therefore a vested interest in the way it is reported and edited" by its press and publication officers. With this statement, some here in Washington foresee continued Army-censored war news blackouts; lack of an allover government policy on the subject of war 'news and the possible emasculation of the Office of War Information head- as the primary disseminator of line copy during the coming Allied offensive in Europe and the Pacific. In the background, capital quartci's also sec OWI Chief Elmer Davis waging a valiant, but futile, battle to channel all war news through 2 single government agency. Davis has, for many months, pleaded his cause with President Roosevelt, Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson, Secretary of Navy Frank Knox, Secretary of State Cordell Hull and other department heads-but apparently to no avail.

DIVE BOMBING IS NOT ON THE WAY OUT as some airmen believed following the Bismarck sca victory over the Japanese. In which American Army Pilots used skip-bombing tactics so successfally they wiped out an 'enemy. armada of 22 ships. The Navy and Marine Corps are showing no tendency to scrap the dive and glide bombing technique and, in- fact, these two branches of the service arc improving this method of destruction. airmen do not minimize the Navy value.

of skip bombing against some types of vessels cargo ships and small vessels and they credit the Army Air Corps for developing this type of attack. However, pilots returning from the South and Southwest Pacife will tell you that there is nothing more effective or more terrifying to the cnemy than mass attacks by formation of dive and glide bombers. The difference between the two that dive bombers roar down almost vertically against the target, missiles and their approach is at a release their bombs and pull out. The glide carry heavier more conventional angle. The "invincible" Japanese have been known to run in terror from their guns when dive bombers come screaming down on them.

You're Telling Me! By WILLIAM RITT (Central Press Writer) THE FELLOW who prophesied we'd have a terrifically cold, bliz zardly winter probably longs for good "old" days when there was a ban on publicly forecasting the weather. It took another song: "Mairsy Doats" to make that mama lay that pistol down. In Italy the pincers movement has given way to the leapfrog. The Nazis don't like the new kind of game, either. A type of New Zealand lizard, according to Factographs, has three eyes, one on top of its head.

The odd eye is for use only, we imagine, for staring into space. Toio says it will be a long war. It couldn't possibly last long enough to suit him. If Mussolini gets A valentine this year from his pal, Adolf, it probably will be in the form. of 1 bill for board and room rent.

At night, during months of illness, When slumber and rest had fled, The better to hear and be near me She would lie by the side of my bed. I talked to her in the darkness; I know she could understand: I told her that Lifc was bitter, And she genlly touched my hand. I thoughl that I heard the patter Of her feet upon the stairIt must have been but a fancy For no one is coming there. She sleeps tonight 'neath the lilac, Close beside the Scotlish pine: I know that she sleeps more soundly Than in this bed of mine. My friends all think it is foolish Thal tears from my eyelids start, But I sigh in the night for Annie, Little Scot with the loving heart! I know that many.

will argue That only man is divine, But I like to think of the morning Her voice may answer mine! Somchow I know, Mr. Smith, that Gentle Annie will be there to greet you when your time comes.
