The Sterling Institute connects its early 1950s Florentine School narrative panel to Strasbourg's Musee des Beaux Arts. A Magi panel, similar in size and style, prompts debate over Melchior as the king depicted. The institute cites a Venerable Bede quote while noting uncertain identification.

Conferees Close Tax Bill With 9.1 Billion Relief Plan
The final compromise tax bill would yield 9.1 billion in relief for taxpayers, especially low incomes, while raising taxes on oil producers and curtailing the oil depletion allowance. It proposes raising personal exemptions to 750 by 1973, a 15 percent boost for Social Security beneficiaries, and preserves specific corporate and investment rules. The measure, after yearlong talks, moves to House and Senate votes next week, with no changes to taxes due in April 1970.
