HIGHER COURT UPHOLDS CITY
 IN TAX ACTION
Appeals Court Sustain S Judge Harding Ruling
 in 1928 Tax Suit

The validity of the 1928 tax levy, attacked in suits instituted by E. Valentine and Dr. Robert Simpson and upheld several months ago by Judge Justin w. Harding in the local Federal district court, was again sustained in an opinion just rendered in the Circuit Court of Appleals at San Francisco This was made known here today in a telegram received by Hellenthal & Hellenthan, counsel for the plain tiffs.
 The case involved both real and personal taxes. The 1928 levies were attacked as excessive, and the entire assessment was assailed as being illegal on the ground that the City Council had exempted stocks and bonds and cash on deposit in local banks. Demurrers were filed against the complaints, R. E. Rob- ertson representing the City, and Judge Harding sustained the de- murrers, ruling that the levy was valid. The Circuit Courts opinion sustained him.

After an absence of more thar two months during which time they visited relatives in Louisiana and Texas, Dr. and Mrs. Robert Simp- son, of the Nugget Shop, returned to their home in Juneau on the Yukon. During the trip they also visited MT Simpsons birthplace in Arkansas which he had not seen for 27 years.
 The Simpsons went east over the Canadian Pacific line to De- troit, where they purchased a Pack ard car and motored south, through Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky. Tennes- see, Alabama, Louisiana and Okla homa; continuing west through Texas, New Mexico and Arizona to San Diego, California.
 They found customers consider ably wrought up over the stock market situation, and while the average wage earner is not directly effected, the speculating class is hard hit An overstocked automo- bile industry and the consequent reduction of output is one of the principle causes of the slump, Dr. Simpson believes.
