SENATOR SMITHS
PLAN IS FAVORED
Committee Reports Favorably on the
Amendment. l.,

Washington, March 8.--Today the
senate committee on agriculture voted
to report favorably Senator E. D..
Smiths amendment to the pending ag-
ricultural appropriation bill safe
guarding the amendment which the
South Carolina Senator put through
Congress last year restricting the fu-
lures act to ten in number, in finding
certain stains and tinges of white cot
ton nothing below the grade of mid
ding.
The ame,.d nent as it now exists was
adopted as rider to the wheat guar

next. Certain parties in New York
claim that the amendment will pass
out Of existence with the wheat act,
although several solicitors of the De-
partment of Justice to whom Senator
Smith referred the matter, have ex-
pressed the opinion that the amend
ment is permanent as it stands. How
eyer, wishing to take no chances, the
Senator will have this amendment re-
enacted.
Senator Smith discussed with a
number fother Senators on the
floor today the complaints which he
has been receiving because the federal
reserve banks in many States are
charging higher rate of discount on
loans secured by Liberty bonds than
the bonds themselves pay. In spite
of the fact that purchasing banks
were led to expect when they sub

Smith and others that they can de-

dividends, distributed in the form Of
stock, DO not constitute "incomc," and
consequently rae not subject to fed
eral income taxes, the Supreme Court
decided to day in 5 to decision.
Provisions Of the 1916 federal in
come tax law leVying taxes on stock
dividends were declared unconstitu-
tional. The decision also nullilicd
similar provisions Of the present law
and will involve great loss in revenues
to the government in future collcc-
tions, and also refunds Of such taxes
already collected. Large financial in
trests likewise will be affected and
numerous stock dividends of gencr-
Gus proportions are expected to be
declared soon.
In the majority decision, read by
Justice Pitney, Chief Justice White
and Justices McKenna, Van Devanter
and McReynolds concurrcd. Of the
four dissenting members of the court
Justice Holmes read brief opinion,
in which he was joined by Justice Day,
and Justice Brandcis delivered a
lengthy opinion, which was concurrcd
in by other Justices. IN holding that
stock distributions are not dividends
on account of no separation Of cor
porate assets being involved, Justice
Pitncy, in behalf Of the majority, de-
clared that stock shares care rothing
but paper certificates" in undistribut-
ed assets, are not realized profits and,
therefore, not taxable.

income law to tax stock distributions
the majority decided to be unconstitu-
tional and rot permitted by the six
tceEth, or income tax amendment to
the federal constitution. Stock divi-
dcnds, the majority held, may be taxed
only after stockholders realize upon
them b ythc sale, in which case the
government may levy income taxes on
such profits.
All four dissenting justices contend
ed that Congress had powe. to tax
stock dividends, holding that such
dividends are "income" the same as
if in cash. The sixteenth amendment,
the majority declared is broad enough
to Justify tax.
Justices Brandeis and Clark char
acterizcd the majority as marrow
and "bizarre," and said it would per-
NIT many corporations to escape tax
alton on large portion of what els
actually their income" Declaration of
dividends, in cash or in some other
medium, the two justices added is
"wholly matter of financial manage
ment," and therefore, eff dividend
paid in securities represents a dis
tribution of profits, Congress may, of
course. tax it as income"
Theother dissenting opinion ex-
pressed the belief that the word ain
come" in the sixteenth amendment
should be read in a sense most OBJ
vious to the common understanding at
the time of it's adoption. Most people
other lawyers, it was added, supposed
when they voted for it that they put
at rest the question Of direct taxes
