Newton to Rule To-day ON
Extra Session Question
Will Decide If 1t Is Necessary to
Change State Tax Provisions
Already Adopted
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

ALBANY, Oct. 2.-Attorney General
Charles d. Newton, it is expected,
will issue a ruling tomorrow on the
question whether or not it is necessary
to call the Legislature into extraor-
dinary session to amend the direct
state tax provisions adopted during the
regular session.
Comptroller Charles l.. Craig, of New
York City, recently asked Governor
Miller to summon the Legislature in
extraordinary session to correct what
the Comptroller terms an error,
brought about by the fact that the di-
rect state tax schedule contains an
item which calls for revenue to meet
interest and amortization on soldier
bonus bonds. These charges will not
materialize now, because the state
bonus act was held invalid by the
Court of Appeals.
Comptroller Craig holds it would be
impossible for the State Comptroller
to have to comply with the law in certi-
flying to the Comptroller of New York
City and to the county treastrers the
amount of the tax to be raised in each
community, because the Legislature in
cluded an item Of illegality without
specifying its amount Or extent
The illegality of the soldier bonus
item Of the state tax, Mr.. Craig says,
would infect with illegality the whole
tax levied and collected by municipal
authorities for all purposes, unless
such illegality is removed before the
municipal tax rate is fixed for the COM
ing fiscal year.

ATLANTIC CITY, Oct 2. The
forteth annual convention Of the Amer

A policeman found the boy wander
