COUPLES $3.50 TAX
PLEA HIT BY RULING
Supreme Court Holds Sepa-
rate Returns on Mans In
come Illegal, Despite Pact.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Supreme Court held yesterday
that an agreement between man and
wife pooling their property and income
and providing that they should have
equal rights in the property and income
so pooled does not permit each to make
separate Federal tax return for one
half of the total compensation received
for personal services.
The decision was in a case from Cali
fornia, which had been regarded as
test proceeding involving a much-de-
bated principle.
Guy c. Earl, an attorney, in 1901
entered into an agreement with his
wife, Ella r. Earl, to pool their prop
erty and income from all sources, with
each retaining title to one-ha1f. They
opened a joint bank account and OBJ
served the terms of the agreement, Earl
depositing in its approximately $685. 900.
received in 1920 as salary, fees, etc.,
including income received as an oficer
of the Great Western Power Co.. and
approximately $4,000 received in 1921.
Treating the personal earnings of the
husband as a joint property the hus-
band and the wife each made separate
income tax returns, covering one-half
of the income received by the husband
for his personal services.
The Government contended that
should such agreements be sanctioned
the purpose of Congress in imposing the
income tax would be materially de-
feated The Circuit Court of Appeals
held against the contentious Of the
Government, however, and sustained the
agreement.

FilndOm's Modest Star.

part Of the new American theatrical
scene. After five months Of Bitter
sweet" she left not long ago for Eng
land. There was a triumphant return
that exceeded even that of her fellow
player on the Goldwyn lot, Ronald Col
man. Interview followed interview. all
the same. They were marvellous! They
were marvelous!"
Her first public appearance, after be-
ing rescued by the police from the sta
ton mob, was at the opening of Rio
Rita" in London. Miss Laye was asked
to stand up in her box. People stamped
their feet and cheered and whistled.
Why" she asked.
Now she is getting ready to return
Like Lindbergh before flying to Paris
she had asked for letters Of introduction
to people in Hollywood. Perhaps the
rumor is exaggerated. She had written
timid little note to the New York rep
resentative of the Samuel Goldwyn Co
asking that he let several Of her friends
know of her arrival. Any one of 40
ing to risk his life, If not his camera,
to get pictures of Miss Laye as she
comes up the harbor on her return.
In Hollywood a new welcome is being
planned for her. Miss Laye says that
she likes to meet people. Like the little
girl In "a Kiss for Cinderella" she likes
being made a fuss over" 1t warns
her up, as 1t did Barrie's young heroine.
Miss Laye's first picture Is to be
called "Lilli." Louis Bromfield wrote
the story, which is being adapted by
Sidney Howard. Nacio Herb Brown and
Bruno GranichStaedten are composing
the score The picture will go into pro-
duction under the direction Of George
FitZmaurice.

EVELYN LAYE is now on the high
II seas, Hollywood bound for the first
time. Her contract with Samuel Gold
wyn was signed more than year ago
when Miss Laye had just completed her
engagement in The New Moon" in Lon
don. Peggy Wood had opened in the
London production of "Bittersweet," but
Mr.. Cochran had not mentioned New
York replica.
According to Goldwyn, his decision to
bring Miss Laye to America antedated
the actual signing Of the contract by
more than three years. At the time the
blonde prima donna was appearing in
Madam Pompadour," making of it a
success that stood out in bright contrast
to the unhappy New York production,
which was withdrawn after few weeks.
Mr.. Goldwyn was much concerned
with the American presentation of Bit
tersweet" after he had consented to Miss
Laye's appearance in its leading role.
''Pompadour" had failed in New York.
"Bittersweet' might easily do the same.
Miss Laye shared his anxiety; she re-
fused to allow her name to be starred
or featured.
Not within the memory of the oldest
theatergoer has any player had so &C.
static an ovation and so great per-
sonal triumph as Miss Laye did in Bit
tersweet." She had romance, color,
warmth, music. She looked as a song
should sound. There was a rose in her
hair. She did not wear horn-rimmed
spectacles, nor had she that very efi-
cient look of the new school. She had
the grand manner, the manner of Rose
Trelawney They spoke of Jenny Lind.
And Evelyn spent 48 hours trying to
understand what had taken place. Any
way, she was definitely and agreeably a
