Supreme Court
Hears Arguments
In Capital Case
Case Characterized as Most
Important Legal Suit From
Financial Standpoint of
Decades"

Washington, Jan, 7.-Argumcnts
were begun today in the supreme
court in the Invested capital case"
characterized by Solicitor General
Frierson as the most important le-
ga suit from the standpoint OF gov
ernment finances in a decade y
Whether the government will be
forced to return hundreds OF millions
o. dollars paid as income taxes de-
pends on the outcome.
The immediate cause at issue be-
fore the court is the appeal OF the
LaBellc Iron Works from ruling
of the bureau of internal revenue,
refusing to allow it to treat as in
vested capital the value of ore lands
which it had purchased i'll. 1904 for
$4,000 and which by 1917 had in
creased to $l0,Oo0000, Government
agents maintained that the increase
IN reality was "proht" and should be
taxed as such. The company added
the increase to its capital invested
and claimed the normal deduction OF
? per cent, paying under protest the
additional taN OF 81 OBJ 900.
Many Problems Involved.
The question OF whether a stock
ctividend is taxable arose in new
form in the present case. the in
creased value OF the ore lands hav-
ING been represented on the books OF
tne corporation. according to the
governments brief, since 1912 by
stock issued as a stock dividend "
The wide interest displayed III the
case in the business world was illus
trated by the number of requests for
permission to file briefs, including
tic Long Bell Lumber company of
Kansas City, the National Lumber
Manufacturers association and the
Kansas City Structural Steel COM
pany.
Difference of Theories.
Increase in the value of the ore
lands is comparable to the increase
which occurs in the value of a herd
OF cattle. which, when purchased. in
cuded number of calves, the appel
liant argued. profits was defined
to the court as the actual net amount
of gains made by business between
any two dates.
'''The appellants theory is that the
capital invested in its ore lands is
rot what is paid for them, but is to
be measured by the present value of
the lands" Mr.. Frierson said, but
the government contends, on the
other hand. that the act clearly de-
fines the invested capital as the
amount received in exchange for its
shares of stock plus any paid in or
earned surplus used in the business
