The cases of George M. Albertson and
William H. Burton against James III. Will
lard, Kate U. Willard and Helen N.
Lewis. in which appeals were taken
from judgments foreclosing Barrett law
liens, were argued before the Appellate
Court yesterday. The appeals attack the
constitutionality Of the Barrett law on the
grounds that the Legislature has no authori-
ty TO tax land for the cost of improvements
beyond the extent to which Ii is benefited by
them; that taxing it beyond this extent
would be taking property without ompen-
sation, and that an assessment based on the
frontage of ebutting property so frequently
imposes a burden out of all proportion Of the
benefits received as to make the law arbi-
trary, and therefore invalid. The Barrett
law has been held to be constitutional, but
these points were never raised before.
