OTHER CITIES SEEM 10
BE TAKING NO ACTON
Newport News viii be First TO Test
New Interpretation of New Law BY
Light and Water Companies
Comes Up IN Police Court for
Hearing First.

Warrants charging the Newport
sSsws Light & Water Company, the
Citizens Railway. Light and Power
Company and the Newport News Gas
Company with failure to pay the
license tax imposed on them by the
city council for the present fiscal
year will be sworn out by City At
torney j. A. Massie within the next
few days.
This action will be taken for the
purpose of testing in the courts the
legality of the claim of these COM
panies that the act of the last legisla-
iure placing all water, light and gas
corporations under the jurisdiction OF
the State Corporation Commission re-
lieyes them from paving municipal
license tax.
In Police Court.
The case will first be tried in the
police court and will go TO the Cor
Iolice court and then probably will
20 to the Corporation Court.
According TO advices received here,
every light, water and gas corpora
ton in the State affected by the new
act of the legislature has refused to
pay the license tax. IL was thought
that possibly some other city in the
State would test the legality of the
claim of the corporations Of i'm
munity from city license taxes. but
thus far none has acted. City At
torney Massle said last night that he
had decided to Swear out the neces-
sl,oh
have the matter settled in the courts.
The total amount Of tho license tax
assessed against the three local COM
panies by the council this year was
approximately $500. or this amount,
1000 was assessed against the water
company: about $1,000 against the
gas company and the remaining ST.
500 against the Citizens Railway
hight & Power Company.
Notified Commissioner.
Early in May Commissioner of the
Revenue Bernard w. Crump was noti.
fed by the electric light and gas com
pany officials that those companies
would not pay the tax because they
believed the new STATE law made
them immune from municipal license
taxes. Later the officials of the New
port News Light K Water Company
advised Commissioner Crump TO the
same effect
City Attorney MaSsie was notified
and after examining the new statute
he stated that he did not think the
companies were exempt from the pay
ment of the license taxs Counsel for
the companies differed from him
however. and II was decided to wait
a while to see If some other city in
Virginia would not test the claim.
Attorney r. G. Bickford will repre-
sent the water company in this fight
and Attorney f. NJ. Braxton and S
Gordon Cumming will represent the
electric light and gas companies. City
Attorney Massie will fight the case
alone.
