Choir Rcorsanization.

A meeting OF the Moody Choir will be
held this afternoon in the lecture room
of the First Baptist Church. The call
has been issued by Mr.. Percy S. Foster,
the director OF the choir, It Is understood.
for the purpose of considering the ad-
visibility of reorganizing the choir. It
is understood that the membership of the
choir is so great as to make it unwieldy,
and it has been suggested to disband the
old organization and form i new one by
the enlistment of the picked singers of
the present choir, the inaugural and
Christian Endeavor choruses in the city.
The Moody Choir was organized in 1894
for the purpose of assisting at the meet
ings being conducted in the city by Evan
gelist Moody at that time. and a little
later permanent organization was per-
fected. 1t is understood that the finances
of the choir are in first-class condition.

MUST BE STAMPED.
Tax Certificates Come Under the
War Revenue Act.

War Revenue Act.
The acting commissioner of internal rev.
enue. G. W. Wilson, yesterday sent let
ter to the District Commissioners relative
to the placing of 19-cent war revenue
stamps on tax certificates and directing
them to notify the proper official that
such certificates are not exempt from tax
alton and that the proper stamp must be
affixed to each.
The question has been the subject of
considerable discussion between the Dis
trict officials and the internal revenue Of
ficers recently. the former-including the
Commissioners. the auditor and assessor
of the District-holding that as the Dis
trict is a part of the Government 1t should
not be required to affix the extra war rev.
enue stamps, as the law at present re-
quires them to charge 30 cents for such
tax certificates.
The local authorities interviewed the act
ing commissioner of internal revenue upon
the matter and were informed that if they
We're allowing tax certificates to be issued
without the affiXing of the l0-cent revenue
stamp they were doing so contrary to
law, and all certificates thus issued were
void.
The letter of the acting commissioner
reads in part as follows:
Information has reached this office
through the public press that certificates
of the assessor and the collector of taxes
for the District of Columbia as to the
condition of taxes on any piece of real
estate in the District. and which they are
required by law to issue TO any person in
terested, are being issued to private par
ties without the l0-cent stamp required by
the act of June l3, 1895.
IF this information is correct 1 request
that you instruct the officer issuing the
certificates to inform the applicants there
for that they cannot lawfully be issued
without a 10-cent stamp affixed thereto
and Cancelled according to the provisions
of schedule a of the war revenue law"
