575 CASES BEFORE
 HIGH COURT TODAY
Supreme Bench COnYeDeS With
 Smaller Docket

Washington. Oct. OPl -- Con- vening today for a new term, the supreme court finds that the sum mer recess has produced cases eX- cAeding any record in recent years. hut that the total number awaiting it's consideration, including those carried over from the last term, Is less than a year ago,
 The court will get down to husi- ness at once, having list of @f cases set for oral arguments, but 1t IS expected 10 follow precedents and deliver no opinions during the first week in any Of the five cases IL has in kand from the last term awaiting decision. These include the tamous Teapot Dome case, brought 70 evict Harry F. Sinclair and his companies from the naval oil re- serve In Wyoming.
 The others are one attacking the calidity of cooperative marketing laws, raised by the Liberty Ware house company in Kentucky; an RIlOTl DIV iIt tNNltliI'L 'N i1t-tf h'''t' rany 10 force Comptroller General McCarl 70 pass on a s9,h00,0o0 claim against the governmant. tn" right of states 10 tax the gross re- aeipts Of taxicab companies, in q rsse from Pennsylvania, and q boundary dispute between Texas and New Mexico. Involving land near F. Paso.
 The most importan dispute be- tween states before the court, which probably will be decided during the term, involves Chicagos diversion of water from Lake Michigan. Former Justice Charles E, Hughes, by direc- ton of the court, took evidence in the Wisconsin suit against Illinois and the Chicago Sanitary District, and the case will he set for argu- ment soon after his report, including his findings, is filed. There are two other cases, one by Michigan and the other by New York, which may be controlled in q large measure by the Wisconsin decision.
 All told, the Court will Dc con- f-onted by about 575 eases compared with 66S at the beginning Of the last term, some of them of outstanding importance. owing to extraordinary efforts made by the court during re- cent years to expedite the disposal Of accumulated business. ii closed its last term in June with 2S3 cases awaiting consideration, against 4O9 he year previous. In the summer recess about 292 cases were filed compared with only 259 during the previous vacation recess.
 Taxation Issues to be Decided
 About 250 Of the cases placed on the docket since last June are peti- tons asking the court to grant re- views, and of these about one in five will remain there to be disposed o' on their merits. About 200 will b' stricken from the list as soon as tn court has had an opp unity to eX anime the questions p."-entcd.
 The thirty-four eases advanced fo argument, all Of which will be hearC dGring October present twenty -cigh different questions, and are headed by an attack upon the law regulating iitneys in Detroit. Near the top oI the list is the case Of Swift X Co. an( other packers to set aside q consen decree under which they agreed tc

confine their activities to the meat packing business.
 The list includes a number of tax cases. one from Michigan, attacking the Federal gift tax on state seCur- ities; another from Northern Ohio questioning when dividends were taxable under the act in effect in 1917; one from Minnesota asking when net earnings could be treated as non-taxable surplus under the revenue act Of 1918; an Oklahoma appeal whether taxpayers in the re covery of money paid the govern mcnt are restricted 10 the grounds stated in their claims; whether set dement's rrade by the commissioner of internal revenue are reviewahle by the board Of tax appeals and the courts, in a case from Cincinnati, and whether incomes from leases on Indian lands can be taxed by the from Oklahoma.
