INCOME TAKERS SEE
CHANCE OF VICTORY
Hint Dropped That Supreme
Court Would Now Sus-
tain Law.

I Is the Supreme Court ready to reverse
itself in the matter OF income tax IegIs-
lation2
That question has suddenly assumed
serious proportions IS a result of the
current runor that the tip has some
low got out from the sacred recesses
Of the court that this ought 10 be a
good time for Congress to pass an
income tax law. The story IS rather
specific in some features and rather
lacking In specification in others But
It goes that q certain justice OF the
Supreme Court observed casually 20 a
certain member OF the HOuse-names of
roth suppressed-that he would like to
see such a law passed and he thought
the court would find # interesting.
When this information got around
the House chamber the people who
have been working on income tax
measures pricl1ed ~ their ears. They
have now figured II out. They think
the court might sustain a law similar
to that passed a dozen years ago. and
which was once held constitutional and
the next day overturned by a vote Of
> to 4 in the Supreme Court There
have been several changes IN the r.
scprel Of tie court since then. and the
lawyers very widely believe that il
would now sustain such an act. They
base this on the general tendencies OF
the body in its decisions OF recent years.
The men VINO have been working or
such legislation admit frankly that be-
tween the ScyIla OF the constitutional
limitation and the Cnarybdis Of the last
Supreme Court announcement there is
almost no course to be pursued in
4 vTvcr
the point OF despair when the susges-
ton came that the tribunal might stand
by a law which would substantially re-
enact the old income tax measure. In
'tCatonS are that such a bill will be
introduced before the short session is
far advanced.
