Washington Gas Light Com

STATED AS EXCESS SUM
PAID UNDER PROTEST
Proceedings Based on Unlawful Ex-
clusion" From Office of Assist
ant Assessor Kalbfus.

The question of the legality of tax
assessments made while Samuel T.
Kalbfus was excluded from the Office
suit filed today by the Washington Gas
Light Company to recover $3l .321 50 from
the District of Columbia. The amount
represents the excess paid recently by
the company under protest as personal
tax. The company was compelled to
pay a tax of 9O3O.64. when it claimed
Allegations by the Company.
Through Attorneys Berry & Minor
the company points out that at the time
the assessment was levied. Samuel T.
kalbfus, a member of the board. was
by the defendant "unlawfully excluded
from said board, and not permitted to
participate in its proceedings. and one
Edward W. Oyster was by said defend
ant unIawfully obtruded therein as a
member of said board in the place Of
said Kalbefus. and participated in the
hearing of said appeal and in the de-
cision thereon sustaining the appraisal

Commissioners Not Disturbed.

worried today over the suit filed by the
gas company contesting the validity of
the assessment on the ground that E. w.
Oyster had not been legally appointed a
member Of the board of assistant as
SCISSORS.
While the Commissioners would not
comment upon the nature of the defense
they may make. it was learned that they
may rely ON the fact that Mr.. Oyster is
not and never has been a member OF the
board of personal tax appraisers which
levied the assessment against the gas
company.
Though an appeal was taken by the
company to the full board of assessors, Of
which Mr.. Oyster is a member, the latter
appeal was considered and had nothing to

The petition for a receiver was filed by
Patrick ]. Lucey, attorney general of
Illinois. I.ucey said that If develop
