RIGHT TO CARRY
GUN IS QUESTIONED
Takoma Park Man Took
Pistol and Killed Dog Which
Had Bitten Boy.

If a citizen has the right, under
within legal bounds when he carries
gun for that purpose?
This unusual question came UP be-
fore Judge Hardison for decision in
the Police Court yesterday. The
Judge postponed consideration of the
case until Wednesday to permit coun-
sell to submit authorities.
Harry r. Sheppard. an employe of
the United States Treasury Depart
ment. residing in Takoma Park, b. c.,
was up for trial on a charge OF carry
ing deadly weapons with intent un-
lawfully to use the same. and the
additional charge of discharging fire.
arms in the District OF Columbia
without WITHOUT, the permission Of the au-
represented the defendant and AS
sistant United States District At
torney Ralph Given represented the
government. There were more than
thirty witnesses in the case.
Son Bitten By Dog.
The evidence showed that OH Sep
tember 28 the defendants nine-year-
old son had been bitten by a German
police dog. the property of Mrs. Wini-
fred Hubbard, who resides at 81
Chestnut street, Takoma Park. near
where the defendant resides: that the
defendant armed himself with an
automatic revolver and. going to the
home OF Mrs. Hubbard, killed the
dog after firing eight .38-caliber bull
let's into the CANNES body. 1t was
also shown that the dog killed was
vicious and that he had attacked
pedestrians in the neighborhood of his
owner.
Attorney Leahy submitted volumi-
nous authorities to show that the
English and American courts-one
case In the United States Supreme
Court--had held that a vicious dog
safety. and that any person, regard
less OF whether he had been attack
ed by such a dog. had the right to
kill the animal. even II it was neces-
sary to enter the premises where the
dog was kept to do so and thus com.
nit technical trespass.
Another Point mt Issue,
Assistant United States Attorney
Given, with the court, agreed upon
these points of law and fact. But
the court sought further authorities
as to whether q man in carrying out
his purpose to kill such an animal
a right the authorities said any citi-
zen possesses-if he armed himself
with pistol or gun to kill the dog
and carried it from his home to the
place where the dog was kept. was
he in lawful possession of the weapon
or was he violating the law against
carrying concealed weapons or car
rying a deadly weapon with intent to
unlawfully use the same. as the
charge in this case was made?

TAX BILLS READY
FOR REAL ESTATE
Collector Invites Owners to
Call for Statements, Be-
ginning Tuesday,.
LAW BRINGS NEW DATES
Half of Levy for Current Year
Payable in November, But You
Can Pay All if You Like.

Chatham NJ. Towers. collector of taxes
for the District, last night made
public an open invitation to all prop
erty owners in Washington to call on
him between Tuesday, October 10.
and October 81. and receive their
real estate tax bills for current year.
These bills. $4,000 Of them, will be
completed tomorrow and ready for dis
tribution Tuesday morning.
Heretofore taxes have been payable
In May of each year. but Congress has
changed the provision of law to require
the payment of all taxes twice a year.
half in November and the balance in
May The change is in line with the
desire of Congress to put the District
government on cash basis.
Under the law you are only required
10 pay next month half of your real es-
tate tax. but Mr.. Towers is appealing
to all who can spare the money to pay
the full amount at once.
The collector sees In this some ad-
vantage to the taxpayer as we'll as to
his office force. in that the property
owner will not be bothered with another
bill in May.
Persons with large estates, includ-
ing many pieces of property. probably
will not feel inclined, however, to pay
their tax bills in full in November.
when they could be drawing interest
on half of the sum for six months.
1t is probable that scores of. others.
who own only the house they live in.
will pay their bills in full. The tax
on the general run of homes usually
is between $40 and $50. The interest
on half of such a sum for six months.
the collector believes. would hardly
prove sufficient to deter the citizen
from paying his bill in full and for
getting it.
Mr.. Towers will announce later
when personal property tax bills will
be ready. They also must be paid
half in November.
