 Another Appropriation.

Washington, Feb. lS.-Returns made by the corporations under the law inn posing tax of l per cent on net in- comes. will not he opene to public in spection until congress makes an ap- propriation specifically providing fo- the accommodation for clerical help.
 somebody has discovered that the act of 1892 expressly prohibits the sec .re:ary of the treasury. from using any part of the appropriation of sl00.o0o made bv congress for the expenses of collecting the corporation tax in the employment of persons within the Dis trict of Columbia.
 President Taft thinks congress in tended that the returns should be open to inspection. and in a letter to the secretary of the treasury he suggested that if the construction which seem 5 to be the right one is to be carried in tc execution, there must be al appro- priation of s50.000 for the purp5se.
 A strong oppositions has developed to the publicity feature of the corpor- ation tax The issue is now squarely before congress.
