Declared TO Be Constitutional
BY Justice Chester.

ary victory In the contest regarding the
constitutionality of the franchise tax law.
In a decision filed today which was
handed down by Justice Chester IL is held
that chapter 7l2 OF the laws OF 1899 and
OF the several acts amendatory thereof
and supplementary thereto do not nor
does either OF them violate the consti-
tuition OF the United States or of the state
OF New York or OF any provision OF
either of them"
Exceptions to this finding have been en-
tered by the Hudson River Telephone
company affected, and the decision will
be passed on by the appellate division.
This decision Is independent and in no
way affects the proceedings under con-
sideration by Judge Robert Earl in which
the constitutional;ty OF the law is ques-
toned by New York corporations.
