Meany Plans To
Seek Another
TermVithUnion
Unity House, Pa. - (UPC -AFL
- CIO President George
Meany, who will be 69 Fri
day, plans to run for a new
two-year term in November.
The former Bronx plumber
still directs affairs of the AFL
CIO Executive Council with
a firm hand and has no plans
for retirement, his associates
said.
Meany showed his rock-like
firmness at this week's meet
ing of the council when the
question of AFL-CIO backing
the Aug. 28 Negro-led marcn
on Washington came before
it.
Victory for Position
He advocated a hands off
policy, and carried all but
two of 20 council members
with him on the decision to
avoid a commitment eltner
for or against the mass dem
finst ration.
It was a clear-cut victory
for Meany's position and a
jolt to the hopes of Walter P.
nouther. auto workers' presi
dent and frequent critic of
the AFL-CIO's chief spoices
man. Only AFL , CIO Vice
President A. Philip Randolph,
head of the Sleeping Car Por
ters Union and a principal
march sponsor, joined Keii
ther in blasting the neutrali
ty doctrine. They advocated
all-out support of the demon
stration. Honerod at Recaption
David Dubinsky, head of
the Ladies' Garment Work
ers' Union and host at this
union - run resort in the Poco
no Mountains, honored
Meany at a reception Wednes
day night attended by other
council members and AFL
CIO staff members.
He and Reuther clash fre
quently over policy and tac
tics but Meany seems to hold
the high cards In a council
showdown. And the political
realities indicate that Meany
will have no opposition when
he is nominated for a fifth
two-year term in his $45,000
year Job at the AFL-CIO
convention opening Nov 14
in New York City.

HOW TO KEEP YOUR RECORDS IX
(This is the last In a isrias of nine arlicUa.)
Yesterday's column told you what information you need
to make your expense account deductions stand up. Now
here is how you should keep the records.
When should you write down the information? Do it
daily. If you wait beyond a day say until the end of a
week to write up the week's expense account, the Treas
ury may not accept your records as accurate.
What form should your record take? Use an account book,
diary, statement of expense or any similar record which
shows the necessary facts. If you keep this up currently, you
then can transcribe the information to whatever weekly,
monthly or other summary expense account statement your
employer or client may want. Play it safe by keeping your
original dally sheets.
What other supporting proof must you hasp? Every
hotel, motel, or other lodging expense while away from
home on business must be supported by a receipt, paid bill,
etc., regardless of amount. Every separate expense account
item of 125 or more will also have to be supported by a
receipt, with one exception. The exception is 'or 925 or
more spent on transportation if receipt's aren't generally
given by the transportation company. Thus you don't have
to get a receipt to support payment for rail or bus travel.
since those companies don't generally give receipts. But
plane fares of S2S or more require receipts, since air pas
sengers are given receipts.
Keep this in mind. A check made out to a payee won't
by itself be accepted as proof of an expense deduction. You
will need an itemized bill plus the check, or a receipted bill.
You can reduce your record-keeping by the $25 a day, or
13 cents a mile arrangement, and the Treasury officially
offers you this way of cutting down your necessary record
keeping. The basic idea here is for the employee to take
a daily travel allowance not exceeding $25 a day andor
a fixed mileage allowance not over 15 cents a mile. The
dally allowance rule is limited to employees who are not
related to their employers and who don't own more than 10
per cent of their employer company's stock. The 15 cent a
mile allowance can be used by all employees.
Here's how this works:
If your employer gives you a per diem allowance err a
reimbursement arrangement not exceeding $25 a day, or a
mileage allowance not over 15 cents a mile while traveling
away from home on business and reasonably limits it to
ordinary and necessary business expenses, all you have to
have to keep are records of time, place, and business purpose
of your travel. You won't have to prove the specific amount
spent for different items and you won't have to keep hotel
and motel receipts.
Under such a reimbursement arrangement, the Treasury
expects you, the employer, to maintain an adequate internal
audit control over your employee's expense account, such
as requiring approval and verification by some other re
sponsible person. Also, the allowances will have to be based
on some reasonably accurate estimates of travel costs, in
cluding variances in diilerent localities, etc. In other words,
you, the employer, can't give a blanket $25 allowance lor
daily travel expenses in places where they are unlikely
to run over $15 a day.
There is one "catch in this rule. The Treasury insists
that any excess of allowance over actual expenses will be
taxable income to the employee. This means that if a Treas
ury agent ever claims that an employee spent less than his
allowance, about the only safe way for the employee to prove
otherwise Is to keep the precise 'records that the Treasury
says he doesn't have to keep under the per diem and mileage
allowance rule. So, despite the seeming liberality of this
regulation, it may nevertheless pay to keep all the required
records If you feel that an aucnt may ever question whether
you actually spent your entire allowance.
As this whole series has emphasized, the new expense
account rules are far from a "disaster" to most of us. To
repeat what I wrote In the first column, If you keep proper
records, which are now a must, you may find that under the
tough new rules you can deduct not only almost as much
but at times even more than before.

Choral Concert Is
Enchantment to Eye
As It Delights Ear
By FAITH McCULLOUGH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Wednesday night's choral
concert in Britt Gardens was
both a delight to the ear, and
an enchantment to the eye.
On the stage a colorful group
of young valley singers pre
sented a program of sacred
and folk songs, against a
changing backdrop of sunset
hills and star spangled sky.
The Festival chorus under
the direction of Lynn Sjolund,
reflected training and a pleas
ing sureness in the first two
groups bf religious selections,
some of which were sung a
cappella. Only the Moe com
position, "Hosanna to the Son
of David," was in contempo
rary mood.
Outstanding in tonal qual
ity and spirit were the Brahms
arrangements, followed by
Mozart's "Placido e il Mar"
from Idomlneo. . . , .
. There was general disap
pointment that Mira Frohn-
mayer, Medford contralto, was
unable to sing the solo part
as programmed originally.
However, the chorus showed
warmth and flexibility togeth
er with clarity of articulation,
an attribute frequently lack
ing in massed voices.
Lightly pleasant and typi
cally Elizabethan were "Sweet
Day" and "Willow Song" by
Vaughn Williams. In contrast
was the gay, rollicking chorus
of Moreley's "Fire, Fire My
Heart" and the concluding
number by Hindemith, "Since
All Is Passing."
Mrs. Leslie Boardman of
Medford was the piano accom
panist, giving strength and
support in selections which
otherwise might have lacked
depth and have lost volume in
the open air.
Music lovers have already
discovered the thrill of an
open-air festival and look for
ward to a future when acous
tics and lighting will not be
Roving Fisherman's
Lengthy Sojourn Ends
Anchorage-flitti-Six months and several thousand miles!
later, a roving Kodiak fisherman is back in Anchorage, cour
tesy of the government.
Feb. 14. Nicholas V. Rentenaar, 26, rented a car from
Anchorage Auto Rental.
He said he'd be gone for a day. But he just kept going
and going and going. .
He was finally arrested at Managua, Nicaragua, early in
June. He was deported by Nicaraguan authorities as an
undesirable alien and was arrested by the FBI in Miami
June 15. -
Glen Fuller, owner of the rental agency, says he's talked
to Rentenaar, who says he wants to make restitution.
It may take him a while. At $12.50 a day plus 12 cents
a mile, he owes Fuller a little money. It's about 5,000 aid
miles from Anchorage to Nicaragua, and the distance by
land is anyone's guess. ..
Asked if the. car would be returned from' Nicaragua,
Fuller said, "it's questionable." Rentenaar hit a horse with
it during his Nicaraguan excursion.
Rentenaar was being held in federal jail here on autd
theft charges.
major problems.
The Peter Britt Gardens
may not have the vastness of
the Hollywood Bowl or the
perfection of Aspen, but their
natural setting is one of rare
beauty where one senses a
quiet and peace among the
great trees that makes the
sound of music a midsummer
night's dream.
