Ruling of Commissioners of Internal Revenue That the City be Exempt From Income Tax Law Applied to Bonds of Gas and Electrical Department--Conhrms Corporation Counsel Tanning.

The question having arisen as to whether the city of Norwich would De required to reserve, as at the source, Tor the United States government one Der cent of the interest payable semi annually to the New York Trust com-- pany upon the bonds of the Norwich Gas & Electric company which were held by our supreme court not 10 be a direct obligation on the city the mat ter was referred to Corporation Coun- sel Joseph T. Tanning, who decided that while these were not city bonds, which are specifically exempt from the Income tax, still as they constituted an obligation which in fact is met with city funds and furthermore with city money derived from a public utility, that the city would be exempt from the collection of the tax and that the provisions of the income tax jaw do not include income derived from these particular bonds. Mir. Tanning also holds that there is no provision or covenant in the mortgage deed given to secure the payment of these bonds, by which liability for income tax might later be fastened upon the city by lthe bondholders.
 If this ruling is undisturbed, it would mean 8 saving to the city of $2,S0o as the tax would be $200 per year and the bonds have II years to run.
