Perfect Getaway. In Milwaukee, after José Ortega was summoned to federal court for an income tax hearing, an attorney offered reasons for Ortega's nonappearance: his client was deported to Mexico for illegal entry last year, is now in Guadalajara, awaiting trial for murder...
...Francisco. With no hardship at all, Republican Incumbent George Christopher, 52, walloped Democratic Tax Assessor Russell Wolden, 49, by more than 50,000 votes. Greek-born George Christopher, who showed his abilities during his first term and enhanced his position when he rang in a warm San Francisco welcome for Nikita Khrushchev (cabled Khrushchev: "Had I been a citizen of your beautiful city, I would undoubtedly have voted for you"), had the city in his pocket virtually from the beginning, even though registration is overwhelmingly Democratic.

What is more, the supermarkets pay up, which cannot be said of many small-store owners who stanchly maintain a tax-dodging tradition...
...have always counted on doing something useful with my education (B.A. Bryn Mawr, M.A. Radcliffe). I like to put my training to a gainful and useful purpose. It is a real privilege to work. One must be able to afford it financially--the cost of housekeepers and the income tax set up make this difficult--and also, one must be sure that one's home and children are not being slighted. I have to count on really professional help at home...
