Charges Against Commission.
ers Rudolph and Johnston.
ANNOUNCEMENT IN HOUSE
Representative Bennett Alleges Dis
elimination in Taxes.
MATTER OF ASSESSMENTS
Requests That Increase in Salary Be
Held Up Pending
Investigation.

Formal charges against District Com
missioners Rudolph and Johnston have
been filed with President Taft by Repre-
sentative William S. Bennett Of New
York MIR. Bennett made this announce
ment on the floor Of the House this after
noon during consideration Of the District
of Columbia appropriation bill.
Mr. Bennett declared that not only
have the Commissioners been repeatedly
guilty of violating the law by permitting
lower assessment to be levied against
rich people than is levied against poor
people, and announced fatty that he had
called the Presidents attention to one
specific violation of statutory law by
Messrs. Rudolph and Johnston within the
last six weeks.
Mr.. Bennett paid high tribute to En-
gineer Commissioner Judson, declaring
that he did not believe in and was not
party to the action of the civil Com
missioners with respect to assessments.
and to the alleged fragrant discrmina-
ton by them in favor of the rich.
Alleged Discrimination.
The charges created a sensation in the
House. The paragraph in the District
bill raising the Commissioners salaries
from 5000 to $1,000 was under considera-
ton.
Mr.. Bennett began his attack on Com
missioners Rudolph and Johnston by OBJ
jecting to the increase. Then he went
into detail. and wound up by declaring
that rank discrimination in favor of
wealthy men who came here to make
their homes was being practiced.
This may be good policy on the part
Of the Commissioner" said Mr.. Bennett,
''but 1t is an absolute violation of the
law"
Mr. Bennett further declared that the
present tax assessor of the District was
unworthy to hold the position because
he was appointed, by the Commissioners
to carry out their policy.
Mr. Bennett demanded that no increase
be allowed the, Commissioners until
there had been investigation, and the
whole matter had been cleared up.
Commissioners Johnston and Judson
were in the gallery of the House when
Mr.. Bennett sprang his, sensational
charges Commissioner Johnston was
seen to send for Representative Burke
Of Pennsylvania, and when Mr.. Burke
returned to the floor of the House he
denounced the charges as false.
He declared he had the authority of
one Of the Commissioners to make this
statement.
Commissioner Johnston was seen by a
Star reporter in the gallery Immediately
after Mr.. Bennett made his charges.
II know nothing about this he said;
"it is all new to me-

was still in progress when The Stars re-
