STATE SUPREME COURT
ouEssES UNSATISFACTORY
iowa Law and Federal Treaty With
Great Britain Appear to Be in Con.
Het Court Decides Iowa Farmer
Has Right to Kill Deer Destroying
His Crops.
Special to Times-Republican.

iDes Moines, May l0.-Quincy A.
Willis. deputy state treasurer, and
Caleb A. Robbins, assistant attorney
yeneral, are preparing to put the SUI
preme court of the United States to
the necessity Of passing on the appli-
tance tax law as to its interference
with British treaty rights. The state
supreme court has been making some
guesses that are not satisfactory.
Some of the district courts have gone
one way and some another. But 1t is
Important to have final determira-
ton of the meaning of the British
treaty, and others that have similar
provisions.
The treaty undertakes TO provide. in
effect, that no state shall impose dis
criminatory burdens on aliens in the
matter of descent OF property. The
Iowa law provides that where property
iS-left by inheritance 10 an alien col
lateral heir the taxes collected from
he. estate before descent are higher
than where the heir is an American.
The application OF the law. as TO real
property has been that the prohibit
lion Of discrimination applies only to
property as the alien may not be quail
ned TO inherit; and generally as 10 all
property it has been the holding of the
department that the tax is on the
estate ard is collected before the bene-
ficiary has any rights at all, hence
there is no discrimination as to the
heir. The department has had more
trouble over these cases involving
treaty rights than over any other
phase of the tax law and it is expected
a case will finally be taken 70 the
highest court for determination. The
Iowa court will be asked for a rehear
ing on one recent case.
The supreme court has decided that
TPottawattamie county farmer may be
justified in killing a deer where the
aforesaid deer is engaged in eating his
nay or greens. He couldn't kill the
'eer as game He probably couldn't
eat it afterwards. But the deer has
