Committee to investigate Doubtful
Poinh Meets and Discuss
Report It Win Make.

Bankers in this city. and in other cities
for that matter. spent most of yester-
day in worrying over interpretations of
several clauses In the income-tax regu-
1ations. published by The Washington
aferald yesterday morning.
% a meeting was held by the committee
Of the Bankers Association Of the Dis
trict, which has been investigating the
income-tax law. yesterday afternoon at
: the office of Charles ]. Bell, president
OF the American Security and Trust
Company. The committee, which is COM
posed Of NJ. ID. Rosenberg. chairman,
representing the savings banks; George
=. Fleming, representing the trust COM
ypanies, and II. z. Mckee. representing
the national banks. discussed It's report
5conceraing the Treasury regulations and
Instructions regarding rents and interest.
They discussed a date for the next meet
ing of the bankers, when the report viii
be published.
Trust companies have been hit harder
by the law than any other class OF banks.
In several companies the ofice forces
have been working late at night trying
20 straighten out accounts about which
there is some doubt.
WaEers Are Made.
Wagers have been made, according to
the bankers, as to the Interpretation of
the regulations. B. +. Saul. president of
the Bankers Association, said last night:
Il know OF one instance where differ
ent views are held concerning one phase
OF the income tax by each Of three we'll
known attorneys employed by one of the
big New York institutions. / have heard
of another instance where two attorneys
employed by trust company have made
a bet concerning the Interpretation of
one clause. They hold views that are
entirely different. They have decided to !
wait until a final ruling is made by thel
Treasury Department in order to settle |
their bet''
In some banks officers have been de- |
tailed to act as income tax experts and ]
10 answer question from worried clients |
who do not know just how to comply |
with the law.
There has been raised by Charles J.
Bell the question whether another ruling \
will be necessary on Some provisions. |
Mr.. Bell was puzzled yesterday when he /
was forced to decide whether, in cases 1
where more than one person receives in
terest on q security, exemption state
ments will be required from each payee.
Another question that has been wor-
rying Mr.. Bell is whether interest should
be deducted by the receiving bank or
the forwarding bank.

Mr.. Frohman makes clear his opinion
that moving pictures are not going
to hurt the theater, but help it. He
says in part:
Il believe the moving picture will
be one of the agents by which peo-
pie viii be brought back to the the
alter. For time, perhaps, the CALLER.
les are being emptied and most as.
suredly for time such a condition is
going to hurt the theaters for h large
part of the theaters profit is in the
gallery. But it is only a passing
phase.
THE theater is always going to
stand as firm as a rock. Madame Sar.
ah Bernhard, who is an enthusiast
about the moving picture, said to me
not long ago that the supreme human
value of the stage, the very question
of warm personality, with which the
mechanical can never compete, will
always bring the pendulum swinging
back in favor of the theater.
There is much to be said for an
amusement which poor man can
have for ten cents. But tnat is no
reason why the galleries of our thea
tiers at the present time are empty.
AS a theater manager of some exper-
fence | have never yet found the
question of price debated AS reas-
on for empty seats when the play was
really wanted. Our galleries are
largely empty because the people are
not getting the plays they want What
the average theatergoer has always
objected to was paying a dispropor.
