MAY
LOSE COIN
FOR SCHOOL
FUND
Alien Registration. Would
Put S35, 900 to Credit Of
Schools Which Japanese
Suit May Knock Out.

The schools of Imperial county may
not receive the benefits expected to
accrue from the collection Of poll taxes
from aliens as provided by the alien
poll tax law which became effective
July /, as it is the consensus of opin-
ion around the court house that the
California Supreme Court will hold the
poll tax law invalid in an action start
ed by an Oakland Japanese.
County Clerk M. 5. Cook stated TO-
day that approximately $500 aliens
were registered in Imperial county,
and that almost 10 per cent Of that
number failed to apply for regisrra-
'tion before the books were closed or
before the deputy registrars exhausted
their supplies of blanks in this city.
Calexico and Brawley. Should the
courts hold that the law IS constitu-
tional Imperial county schools will re-
ceive about $4,000 from male aliens
between the ages of 21 and 80 years
who are required to pay $40 eacn.
In attacking the Legality of The poll
tax law japanese in Oakland refused
to register as required and submitted
to arrest after winch test case was
started. His attorneys have now APP
piled to the California Supreme court
1or writ of habeas corpus, alleging
three points on which the act IS UNI
constitutional, the principal one of
which is that it is contrary to the pro-
visions of the United Stares-Japane
treaty of April 5, 1911, paragraph z,
of article l of which says: "They
(meaning Japanese) shall hot be COM
PEELED, under any pretext whatever. to
pay any charges or taxes other or
higher than those that are or may be
pald by native citizens or subjects"
The second point of attack is on the
ground that the constitution of the
state of California prohibits such leg
lslation, and the third allegation IS
that the law violates the Fourteenth
Amendment TO the Constitution OF the
Unled States.
In brief presented in an effort to
obtain the freedom Of the japanese on
a writ of habeas corpus the defendant
attorneys state: 1T will be observed
from am examination of the title OF the
act that there is no indication in the
title or suggestion of the elaborate
plan of registration Of aliens with
which the greater part of the act is
concerned" 1t is thei contention that
the act violates the California constl-
tuition in that nothing IS mentioned in
the title of the registration of aliens
and that-.c be legal instrument the
t:-* should specifically, mention the
registration.
On the point of the alleged violation
of the Fourteenth Amendment to the
national constitution, the brief states
that no authorities can be found who
sustain the constitutionality of any tax
statute which discriminates between
citizens and aliens.

Under presidential decree in Mex

as one Of the first steps he has is

Mr.. Cronholm estimates that the

on the levees alone this year has cost
$92,350, of which Approximately two

levee.
On numerous occasions opposition
has been voiced to any proposal look

tend to permanently relieve the mer-

almost at the point of starting the
work when for one reason or ana
other the plans would be left uncom-
pleted and the annual battle against
the flood would follow with the result
that the irrigation district would be
forced to spend large sums of money
sorely needed for other work.
This years expenditures on the
three levees are about par with those
