INHERITANCE TAX
NOT COLLECTIBLE
Alameda County Treasurer I'm
successful in Suit Against
John w. Havens

OAKLAND, Oct. 21.-Judge Wells
ruled today that John w. Havens, a
Berkeley capitalist. does not have to
pay collateral inheritance tax amount
ing to $4,000 on property he derived
from the estate of his uncle, F. K
Shattuck. The latter died several years
ago and suit was instituted recently by
County Treasurer Kelly to recover the
tax.
A ruling of the supreme court on the
constitutionality of the inheritance tax
law as it was until amended was fol-
lowed by Judge Wells in rendering his
decision. The supreme court held that
the law Disseminated unjustly between
nephews and nieces who lived in the
state and those who lived outside, and
was therefore faulty Justice Beatty
gave dissenting opinion on the
strength of which the suit was begun
by Kelly. s
suit to enforce the collection of
inheritance taxes from the estate of
the late Rosa Shattuck, widow Of +. K.
Shattuck, is now pending. Mrs. Shat
tuck, who was worth $1,000,000. trans
Il >ferred much of her property before her
death.

MAYOR Will REPLY
TO CLUB letter
Council Claims Initiative Can
Not Be Invoked in Case of
\ Fire Chief j. Kenney

BERKELEY, Oct. 21.-The council
made it plain this morning that there
was no charter provision under which
George Gelder and his associates could
act to secure the appointment, under
an initiative proceeding, OF James Ken
ney as fire chief The matter was
brought to the attention of the board
when the communication of the execu-
tive committee of the Central improve
ment club was read, asking for Ken
ney's appointment, and threatening the
initiative.
The entire council was practically
unanimous in the opinion that under
the charter the right of appointment of
city officers rests with the council, and
that the initiative can not be invoked
by voters for the appointment of such
officers.
After the reading Of the letter the
council voted TO refer it to Mayor Hodg-
head to make reply to the club.
1t is understood that the matter of
the appointment of Fire Chief Kenney
will be disposed of within week, and
that he will be appointed to the position
he now holds under the old charter.
Many residents appeared at the coun-
ell meeting this morning to protest
against the erection by the Standard
oil company of tanks at the corner of
Sacramento and West streets. The
matter was continued to secure more
