amendment approved, in 1914, every
motor vehicle, like other personal
property, must be assessed in the
county, city township, village or dis
trict in which it is situated, and In
the manner prescribed by law. (Sec.
l7y) When the assessments are made,
then taxes may. be levied in pursuance
of law by the state and by the sew
oral municipalities. Aside from the
small sum necessary to pay interest
on the public DEBT, the state may levy
no tax in any one ear in excess OF
four mills on the dollar Of the assess
ed valuation of all the taxable prop
erty. Sec. 174). 1t may not levy tax
es for counties, cities or other NUM-
cipalities or take the control Of their
affairs; because their existence and
those rights are imbedded in, and
guaranteed by, the constitution. True,
the state may, by general laws pro-
corporations and restrict their power
to levy taxes and assessments and to
uorrow money and contract debts.
(Sec. 1907. But that is not power to
destroy the municipalities, to manage
their affairs, or to levy and disburse
their taxes; and most assuredly 1t is
not power to levy taxes on one mu-
nicipality or locality for the special
benefit of another. ...,..
In the majority opinion it is said OF
those limitations of the constitution:
IF they are still applicable. as we
think they are, they will necessarily
preclude the legislature from taxing
great amount of property according to
such method as is employed In the
instant case" This is an admission
that the tax is illegal and void, with
hope that the legislature may not do
it again to any great extent. For II
this method of taxation may not be
applied to all other property, it must
be in conflict with the uniform meth
cd of the constitution. Indeed, 1t Is
in no way possible to sustain the mo-
tor vehicle tax by a single point OF
law or logic. For under the plain
words of the constitution there can
be no tax without an assessment
Finally, If the state may
levy a. specific tax on motor vehicles
or on one class of property, ito be in
lieu of all other taxes, general or
special" then it may in like manner
levy similar tax. on any other class
of property, and in that way deny to

but not in any city or village. AS the
argument SHOWS. the specific motor
vehicle tax, which the statute IMPOSES
without any assessment. is in direct
conflict with all the fundamental prin-
ciples Of taxation, as guarantefN by
the constitution. eHnce, the tax and
the statute are illegal and void That

tinctly one against which the people
can guard. SO far as one can estimate
there are at present about one million
cases OF tuberculosis In the United

complete census available to show ex.
actly the number of tuberculosis per
sons In each state despite the fact that
most of the states have made the dis
ease reportable. In New York city.
where reporting has been in force for
many years, over $1,000 cases OF tu-
berculosis are registered with the De
partment of Health. Those familiar
with the situation believe that the ad.
dition Of unrecognzed and unreported
cases would make the number nearer
$4,000. The very careful health sur

years in birmingham, Mass, revealed

EARL HAMILTON
IN A COMEBACK
Former Brown Shows Worth
with Pirates Before,
Answering Call.

Several major league pitchers
have figured in unique cofne-backs
this season that have attracted
more than the usual attention.
Perhaps the most spectacular Of
all was that of Earl Hamilton, late
ly of the Pittsburgh Pirates and
now a jack tar in Uncle Sans navy.
Hamilton was a cast-off Of the st.
Louis Browns. His work last year
stamped him as a has-wuzzer. for
he did not succeed in winning q
game for Fielder Jones.
Sent to Columbus. in the Ameri-
gan Association. Hamilton showed
little better form, but despite this
fact Joe Tinker sold hin to the
Pittsburgh club. and had he stuck
with the Pirates he might rank as
the leading southpaw of the Ma
tional League today. Hamilton won
six straight games for Hugo Beg
dek's team and then said good-by
to his clubmates and left the team
to enter the navy.
Another comeback is Dan Griner,
of the Robins. Griner is also a
st. Louis cast-off. though he was
with the Cardinals instead of the
Browns. Miller Huggins asked for
waivers on him last fall. aud Brook
lyn refused to waive. SO he became
a Dodger. He is a big right-nauder
with a good spitball. and Uncle
Wilbert Robinson Is SO well satis-
fed with his work that he Is assur-
ed of q regular meal-ticket in
Slim Love, who first Joined the
Yankees in 1916. failed to stack up
as a major Lacquer until this sea-
son because he refused to take the
game seriously. When Miller Hug
gins got hold of Love and started
after him hammer and tongs, the
big pitcher woke up.
Vean Gregg. brought back to the
big show from the International
League by Connie Mack, has been
pitching great ball for the Ath-
letics, and Grover LowdermiIk, of
the Browns, is another comeback
who is still sticking around. Per-
haps the most interesting feature
among the pitchers has been fur
nished by Joe Wood, who has de-
veloped into a fielder and has been
the means of winning a number of
games for the Cleveland Indians
through his timely hitting.

WORLD SERIES
AFTER THE WAR
Old Fox Figures France,
England, America and
Orient in Title Game.

Baseball Is gaining a foothold in
Europe which gives promise OF
widening its field in many direc-
tions after the war.
Prior to the entry Of the United
States into the world conflict the
game had been introduced in Eng
land. France and many other coun-
tries, but it did not take root, and
the sportloving public abroad took
only a passive interest in the game
But since the American expedi-
tionary forces landed in France, the
soldiers have popUlarized the game.
The French have taken II up and
are learning how to play IL, and
even in England, where sports writ
ers dub the American national craze
as a poor substitute for cricket, the
devotees of sport are learning to
appreciate the fact that baseball is
really a redblooded pastime.
Clark Griffith, who has done SO
much with his Bat and Ball Fund,
says that after the war many Euro
pean countries and some of the ORR
entail nations may be expected to
go in for baseball in earnest. There
is a league composed OF thirty teams
in France at present with Ameri-
can soldiers. sailors and marines
enrolled as players. In England,
American forces have organized,
teams and have been playing many
games this spring.
II baseball grows in favor abroad
the fans on this side OF the pond
may look forward to a real worlds
series some day. Imagine what in
terest there would be in a series
between the French or English
champions and the winners OF the
American series! Griffith says IL
is only a matter OF time, in his
opinion. until such a series will be
possible.
