JUDGMENT MAY
CUT TAXES OF
CORPORATIONS
Judge Ryan Rules Against
Levy on Income Derived
Outside State.

Thousands Of dollars Of taxes Will
be saved Indiana corporations If
the deClaratory judgment Of Su-
perior Judge Russell Ryan issued
today is upheld by higher courts.
Judge Ryan Of superior court five
declared the gross income tax law
Of the state constitutional in its gen.
eral sense. but held in substance
that the state could not levy its tax
on money derived from business uot-
side the borders Of the state.
The declaratory judgment was
made is the case Of the Standard
oil Company Of Indiana against
VILLAIN Storen. state treasurer, and
other officers Of the state in charge
Of the collection OF taxes under the
gross income law.
Points Are Clarified.
ClarifcauOn Of points IN the new
act as they affect corporations oper-
atinc within the state borders but
doing their ma lor business outside
the state formed the major theme
OF the Judge decision.
Hearing on the suit filed by the
Standard Oil was held IN January.
Generally. the Judge held that re-
Ceipts Of corporations or firms,
whether retail or wholesale. from
outside the state could not be taxed
at the rate of per cent for retail
business and one-fourth Of l per
cent on wholesale income.
Appeal May Ensue
Excerpts from his decision, which
may be appealed to higher courts,
follow.
That the Standard Oil is not
Obliged TO pay TO the state Of In
diana any tax on that portion of
receipts obtained from sale of any
bonds or notes issued by any mu-
nicipal corporation within the state
which was issued prior TO the gross
income tax laws enactment.
That the plaintiff is not obliged
10 paw to the state of Indiana any
tax on receipts obtained by inter
est or from the sale of any Sc
curities of the federal government
and all of these receipts are exempt
from taxation.
No Extra State Tax
Plaintiff is not obligated to pay
state of Indiana any tax on sales
of products manufactured in Indi-
ana and sold to customers in other
states where such products are
transported in interstate commerce
from this state to customers IN other
states.
The tax applied to gross income
is at rate of l per cent if such re-
ceipts are paid from retail sales
and it is one-fourth of l per cent
if such receipts are from wholesale
sales. Plaintiff maintains and oper-
ates filling stations in Indiana
where 1t sells products of its own
manufacture. In case such sales
are retail. the gross income there
from is therefore taxable at per
cent, ruled the judge.

Fame-First Program
September IS.

Nationwide fame comparable to

NAMES ON RADIO SETS
Well-Known Trade Symbols Are
Appropriated Without
Authority.

Beware the radio receiving set Of
fered you for purchase bearing trick
names that sound like standard we'll

are not. The Federal Trade Com
mission has just made public another
complaint charging unauthorized and
wrongful appropriation of well known
trade names to radio sets manufac-
tured or assembled and sold by COM
panies not connected with the manu-
facturers suggested by the trade
names"
The respondent in the case, the
fifth of its kind to come before the
commission, was the Crystaltone
Radio Corp, New York, which was
alleged to have placed on its radio
tubes and sets escutcheon plates bear
ing the names Edison" Victor In
ternationaP' and Brunswick"
The respondent, charged the COM
plant, has no authority or license to
use the names Edison" or Victor" i"
adding that such use tends to and
does mislead and deceive the trade
and purchasing public into the erron-
eous belief that its tubes and sets have
been manufactured by Thomas A.
Edison, Inc. and RCA Victor Co.. re-
spectively, while the said name
Brunswick is so nearly like the name
Brunswick in appearance and sound
that it is difficult to distinguish the
difference"
The respondent was given until
September 81 to answer the charges
and show cause why an order should
not be issued by the commission re-
quiring it to cease and desist from the
practice.

grade But in practically every case

girls who only wanted a chance to
