ADVERSE ACTION.


Assessors Views Respecting Proposed
Payment of Automobile Tax.
Mr.. H. H. Darneille. the District assessor.
has recommended to the Commissioners ad-
verse action upon the proposition Of George
e. Hamilton. attorney for the Washington
Electric Vehicle Company, that the COM
pany be permitted to pay a tax Of 81 on its
automobiles pending legislation as to their
status. Mr.. Darneille says:
AFTER careful study of this question,
I am unwilling to concede the position
taken by Mr.. Hamilton. attorney for the
owners OF certain electric vehicles. that
said vehicles could not be included under
the license laws I am of the opinion Gn
which I am sustained by the legal adviser
of the District of Columbia) that the pres
ent law has been and is now applicable to
all vehicles used for the transportation
OF passengers for hire, without regard to
motive power, except railroads operating
under franchise. ! am led to this con-
clusion after a careful inspection of the
law, which divides licensed vehicles into
two classes viz: hacks and carriages; $40;
omnibuses. $40; other vehicles, $40, and one
horse cabs, Sc per annum
The proposition to pay tax of $4 for
each vehicle located at a railway station is.
l believe, not warranted under the law,
which fixes the minimum amount at Sc per
annum. The position is not tenable from
this standpoint and 1 am of the opinion
that the amount thus received would have
to be refunded in time.
II respectfully suggest that a question of
such interest to the financial welfare of
the District might very properly be re-
ferred for Interpretation by the court, for
the compromise desired would, think, bar
the District from any subsequent proceed
ings under the present law.
This issue is not confined to a few We
hicles at railway station, but goes far
ther. Nearly all hotel omnibuses are now
electric l.
censes. which expire on the 30th Of the
present month. Should decision be
reached not to enforce the law, the pro-
prietors referred to would, as a matter of
course. decline to renew license. For these
and other reasons I am unable to recon-
mend the acceptance of the proposed COM
promise, as feel that it would set dan
gerous precedent"
