DISTRICT TAX DECISION
AWAITS PHIPPS' RETURN

In the absence Of Senator Phipps OF
Colorado, who is in charge of the Dis
trict appropriation bill, no further
steps were taken in the Senate today
regarding that measure and the con-
ference tax rider. Senator Phipps is
expected to return to Washington to-
morrow.
Some of the senators, it is under
stood. will confer with him in regard
to hearings on the tax rider, in order
to give the citizens of the District
an opportunity to express their opin-
ions regarding this important matter.
Many of the senators On the repub.
lican side, as well as senator's on the
democratic side, believe that such
hearings should be held. Whether
they will be held before a subcom-
mittee or the full appropriations
committee, or whether they will be
held at all, still remains to be seen.

OverruIes All the Objections
Raised to Congress Impos-
ing Levy Here.
MISREPRESENTATION
PLEA GIVEN RECOGNITION
Opinion Holds This Is Fundamen-
tai, But Application Is Not
Limited to One Tax.

The United States Supreme Court
today upheld the constitutfonality or
the intangible tax law of the Dis
trict of Columbia, sustaining the de-
cision of the Court of Appeals and
It's District Supreme Court. The de-
c,sasn was unanimous, being read by
tft. Justice Brandeis.
The Supreme Court overruled all
the objections which had been raised
to the act of Congress imposing the
intangible tax. The case was that
of John c. Heald, executor, against
the District of Columbia. On the
objection which had been raised to
the act, that the tax was void be-
cause 1t subjects the residents OF the
District to taxation without repre-
sentation, the court in concluding its
opinion said;
Plea Disposed OF.
"FinalIy.gfit is earnestly contended
that the act is void because it sub
jects the residents of the District to
taxation without representation. Res
idents of the District lack the suf-
frage and have politically no voice in
the expenditure of the money raised
by taxation. Money SO raised is paid
into the Treasury of the United
States, where 1t is held, not as a sep
arate fund for the District, but sub
ject to disposal by Congress like other
revenues raised by federal taxation.
The objection that the tax is void be-
cause of these facts is fundamental
and comprehensive. 1t is not limited
in application to the tax on intan-
gibles. but goes to the validity of all
taxation. Of residents of the District.
Stands ON All Taxes.
TT stands, it would seem. to apply,
not only to taxes levied upon residents
Of the District for the support Of the
government Of the District, but also to
those taxes which are levied upon them
for tho support generally for the gov
ernment Of tho United States.
1T IL sufficient to say that the OBJ
lection Is not sound. There Is no con-
stitutionaI provision which 80 limits the
power of Congress that taxes can be I'M
posed only upon those who have politi-
cal representation. sAndu the cases are
many in which laws levy1ng taxes for
the support Of the government OF the
District have been enforced since the
day when its residents were deprived
Of all rights Of suffrage"
Not Correct Construction.

case Mr.. Justice Brandeis proceeded to
