LAYTON AGAINST
direct TAXES.
Proposes Amendment to
Constitution Limiting
Federal Levies
INCOME TAX ONLY
FOR WAR EXPENSES
Special to The Evening Journal.

Special to The Evening Journal
WASHINGTON. June 13.-Repre-
sentative Caleb r. Layton. Of Della
ware. yesterday introduced a joint
resolution in the House proposing
an amendment to the constitution OF
the United States. The resolution
was introduced at the request OF
Thomas L. Anderson, chairman OF
the decentralization League OF 81.
Louis. Mo-, OF which branches are
being established throughout the
country.
The resolution is as follows:
Resolved, BY the House Of Rep
resentatives. and the Senate OF the
United States OF America in Con-
gress assembled (two-thirds OF each
house concurring therein) that the
following amendment TO the consti-
tuition be, and hereby is, proposed TO
the States. to became valid as part
Of the constitution when ratified by
the Legislature Of the several States
as provided by the constitution.
1.-The Congress shall have no pow
er to lay and collect taxes on In
comes or to lay and collect any
other direct tax. except to defray
the expenses of actual war and TO
discharge any debt now existing or
thereafter incurred in the prosecu-
ton of war"
Representative Layton's resolu-
ton is aimed at the growing tend
encies in Congress toward socialism,
further burial OF States rights, and
the power 10 tax the people OF the
country. the establishment OF bu-
reaus and commissions in Wash
ington, upon which the people are
taxed without their consent. Under
present practices Of enacting legls-
latlon by Congress. people Of the
States cannot be protected in the
matter OF taxes
Representative Layton Is one OF
the few members OF the House who
sees the danger OF the ever-increas-
ing establishment Of federal bu-
reaus in Washington, and the CEN
tralization Of government. Many
so-called bureaus are established at
the instance OF some group or or
ganiation for political popularity
and for further remaining In office.
Representatives Harry ST. George
Tucker and r. Walton Moore, MEM
bers OF the House from Virginia,
authorities on Constitutional law
agree with Representative Layton of
the growing danger facing this coun-
try because of the rapidity with
which socialism is growing in the
enactment Of legislation which fur
Their deprives the States Of their
rights and powers.

One city official in discussing the

in the contract. As the matter now

sum Of $4,000 yearly or $4,000 to

In this his figures are not much In
excess OF the estimate placed by the
Street and Sewer Department for
this work. Their estimate was for
$4,000 per year. for three collec-
tions weekly, with a possible reduc-
ton to the downward trend OF wages.
While many OF the city officials
would gladly have the city make the

that by changing from wet TO wrap

not committed himself as to the
amount OF additional compensation

emphatic. and does not object to be
quoted on that one point: The gar
