Rockefeller Tax

John ID. S,Uears DO,Un
Personal assessment
More Than $3,OOO,OOO

John D. Rockefeller has sworn down
his personal assessment of $5,000000
for 1920 to about 100000. 1t will
be the first time in many years that Mc.
Rockefeller has not paid on personal
assessment of $1,000 900.
The theory is held by employees in
the tax Office that Mr. Rockefeller was
and the Board of Estimate last spring
when, after Health Commissioner Cope
land had solicited a gift of the
emergency hospital buildings of the
Rockefeller Foundation in this city,
the Mayor refused to allow Mr. Cope
land to accept them.
The loss in taxes on the difference
between an assessment of S. 600 900
and $1,000 900 is about S78 000 figuring
the 1920 tax rate at 2.60. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Rockefeller did not visit
the tax Office personally, but sent his
lawyer with data that satisfied the
commissioners that he was not taxable
for more than the amount stated
This is the second setback Mayor
Hylan has experienced in connection
with Mr.. Rockefeller's personal assess
ment. The first year he was in office
he announced that Mr.. Rockefeller
would have to pay on his supposed
large personal holdings, and he directed
the Department of Taxes to send him
a letter asking him for list of his
bonds and stocks Much to The sur
prise of the tax office officials, Mr.
Rockefeller promptly complied with
the city's request, with the result that
the oil magnate's personal assessment,
instead of being raised to $500, 900 900,
as contemplated, remained at the old
figure-S 5000 900 for 1919 1t was as
sumcd by the Mayor that the assess
ment of 5000 900 would stand for 1920,
but Mr.. Rockefeller decided that it
was $3,000,000 too high, and swore

was in the hands of President Will,

because he disagreed in principle
with the coal strike settlement pro-

said personal letter from him had
been transmitted to the President
late in the afternoon.
Men close to DR.. Garfield unders
stand that he believes the work Of

settlement, to be made up of one coal
mine operator, coal miner and a
third person named to represent the
public. will result in an increase in
the price Of coal to the consuming
public.

DR.. Garfield has been opposed to
this form of settlement. He took
no part in the negotiations with the
mine union chiefs during the last
week, and, although he was Informed
and consulted after their imitation,
the terms laid ost as finally accept
ed contravene his conception of the
main principle involved.
1t was recalled in connection with
the resignation that in suggesting a
IA per cent wage increase as fair for
the miners and possible to be paid from
profits of mine owners, DR.. Garfield sug-
gested a commission repre- ntative OF
the industry to review the findings, but
expressed the conviction that such a
hody should not have power to Fl prices.
His belief is said to be that with this
power granted a combination of the
employer and employee in the industry

PONTIFF FEELS OTHER CHURCH.
ES MUST RETURN TO CATHO-
Lie BOSOM.

1t is stated semi-officially on behalf
of the Vatican, according to a dis
patch, that the Holy See has not given
its adherence to the pan-Christian
congress which it is proposed to hold
shortly, as the Catholic Church, con-
sidering her dogmatic character, could
not join in the congress on an equal
footing.
The feeling of the Vatican, says
the semi-official expression, is that
all the other Christian denominations
seeded from the Roman church,
which descends directly from Christ,
and that therefore Rome cannot go to
them, it being for them to return to
her bosom.
The pope, the expression adds, is
ready to receive representatives of
dissident churches with open arms,
as the Roman church has always
longed for the unifcation of all Chris
tian religions. Pope Leo XIII, it is
pointed out was deeply interested in
the question and wrote two famous
encyclicals on the subject of unfit
cation of the Christian churches.
Every Catholic, of course, knows
that this is the only possible result
of the recent visit of three Protestant
Bishops to Rome.
