TAX Refund
Times STAFF photo

The Public Utilities Commission.
today, was considering in what
manner the tax assessment, refund
ordered by District Commissioners TO
the Georgetown Gas Light Company,
the Washington Gas Light Company
and the Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company, could be ap-
piled.
The assessments which were
levied. and not paid with the ex-
Eception Of the telephone company
since 1913, were set aside by the
several companies in a reserve fund
pending action of the corrts In the
case Of the Potomac Electric Power
Company.
Recently the court held that the
power company had been Illegally
taxed and directed return of such
taxes, or at least cancellation. The
tsufil involved amounted to several
hundred thousand dollars.
The telephone company may have
TO go TO Congress for a special act
to recover more than 100000 paid
under protest to the District tax as
SCISSOR. Under the law the Com
lmissioners have no power to refund
money, even though paid under
protest, which has gone into the
Treasury of the United States.

& Among the women employees there
was considerable talk of appealing to
the Commissions to rescind the
order. Many of the women hold that
Richards exceeded his authority.
The point that is ranking most
In the minds of the women clerks is
that q statement was made to the
effect that men employees do not
abuse the privilege.
While the assessor points out that
those who stick to their knitting and
take only such sick leave as Is abso-
lutely necessary will not be hurt by
his order. others take the view that
he has placed a burden on the entire
office.
Taking umbrage at a statement
that the men employees had TO
double UP when the Trailer clerks
are at home or abroad enjoying the
annual spell of Illness, one fair EN-
ploye shifted and remarked that
she had been In the office some
years and had failed to find a man
who did really hard days work
Some of the clerks have indicated
that IL an appeal to the District
Commissioners does not result in
having the order cancelled. they in
tend to take the matter up to
Capitol Hill
A bill Is pending in Congress to
give all District employees their full
annual and sick leave.
Despite the rumblings, Richards
stands pat.

Coincident with the investi-
CATION by the District At
torney's office and the Grand
Jury into the alleged illegal
activities Of various loan COM
panies and finance firms, an
interesting parallel case has
arisen in the Municipal Court,
Of the District Of Columbia,
before Judge r. 3. Mattingly.
The case involves recent judg-
ment obtained in that court by the
American Small Loan Company OF
Mt. Rainier. Nd, against George
and Mary Green and Lee Thomas,
colored, Of this city.
The record discloses Judgment
having been obtained against
Thomas, an accommodate endorser
by default on May IL last. Aside
from the accommodation endorse
ment, the note upon which the
judgment was obtained. was secured
by household furniture OF George
and Mary Green.
Thomas, learning OF the default
Judgment having been btaiDed
against him, employed Attorneys
Cedric F. johnson and Robert /.
Miller, who filed q motion to set
aside the judgment as against
Thomas. although their representa-
lions may have the ultimate effect
Of volding the judgment az against
the principal defendants also.
Judge Mattingly has taken the
motion under adyisement and has
instructed counsel for both sides to
Tile additional briefs.

ST ATU TES''
STAND IN
WAY

The foreign diplomats IN
Washington, who are the most
envied Of all social lights in
the Capital because they can
import and legally serve fine
liquors and wines, did not fall
over themselves today in their
\ eagerness to embrace the sug-
gestion advanced by the dean
Of the corps, Sir Esme Ho-
ward, the British ambassador,
that should President Hoover
request it they might give up
4 their liquor
on the contrary. the thought put
forward by Sir Esne received a
snaoewhat frigid reception, particu-
larly among the Latin diplomats
whose countries have always re-
garded wine as staple article Of
diet. ;
'sThe English ambassador was
evidently speaking for himself and
ouch an offer was unexpected. The
/ French position Is that no sugges-
Y ton will be made voluntarily. e
Cannot Rule On It
/ This was the comment OF Jules
Henry. first secretary of the French
embassy, speaking in behalf OF Am
bassalor Claudel. He daded ii such

But the private comment Of the
dip1omatics might be said TO reflect
absolutely no enthusiasm for the
idea.
DR.. Herman Velarde, Ambassador
from Peru. for example. said.
All, / think would have to con-
suit with my colleagues before con-
sidering it. l do not drink myself,

TeIIes Says Nothing

from Mexico, was chary Of ex-
pressing any opinion whatsoever.
II think, / shall say nothing" he
said with a smile.
Count Alberto Marchetti, charge
d'affaires of Italy. in the absence

said with some positiveness, Il do
not think we would do it.
Later. however, he observed that
In any event 1t Is a question to be
studied carefully, "and that in the

Paulo G. de Almeida, charge
d'affaires OF Brazil in the absence
of the ambassador, Don S. Durgel

dor. I can say nothing.
We can make no statement"
said Viscount de Lantsheere, first
secretary of the Belgian Embassy,
what agitated and a bit embarrassed
over the matter.
Cannot Give Up Right
An odd feature Of it is the fact
that, from strictly legal and
technical standpoint. the foreign en-.
vcys cannot relinquish their right
to import and serve liquor. The
rights and perquisites of foreign
diplomats are contained in the re-
vised statutes of the United States,
and are pretty hard and fast rules.
No foreign envoy can waive any
Of these rights under American law.
However, the gallant Americ in
Congress undoubtedly would come
to the aid of the diplomats with an
amendment to the statutes should
the diplomats request that they be
brought within the provisions OF
the Eighteenth Amendment and the
Volstead law.
