stead of in washington.
To get around federal constitu-
tional bars against taxing inter-
state commerce, the legislature
levied the compensating tax on
'the privilege of using these pur-
chases like automobiles and Wash
ing machines within the state.
Tax Held Legal
The supreme court neld the tax
legal on grounds it was not a tax
on Interstate commerce, but on the
article after it had come to rest in
washington.
The idea OF such a tax was con-
ceived by the Washington state tax
commission, which asserts it is the
first of it's kind in United States.
Since the supreme court upheld its
validity, numerous states especially
those also having retail sales taxes,
have begun studying the tax close
ly with a view Of adopting it to pro-
tect their own merchants.
The Washington tax exempts all
purchases under 500 month and
also any article which has been
subjected to tax equal or larger
than the 2 per cent compensating
levy, either by the federal govern
ment or other states.
Railway May Bring Suit
The exact scope of the compen-
sating tax has not been established.
The Northern Pacific railroad asked
the supreme court not to rule on
the tax as it affected engines, rails,
cars and other equipment used in
this state and purchased elsewhere
A separate suit may be filed to test
just how far the state can 60 in
taxing railroads, telephone COM
panies and others in interstate
commerce.
The tax commission also has a
suit before the supreme court test
ing whether it can levy the states
business tax on gross revenues o

pany, contractors now engaged in
building the $63,0OO,OO0 Grand Cou-
lee dam.
The company contends it is an
agent for the federal government
and not subject to state taxation.
Should it lose the business tax
suit, the way might be opened for
the commission to require the COM
pany to pay the compromising tax
on machinery, cement and the mil
lions of dollars worth of other ma
terials brought into Washington for
the dam.

Red Gross Moves
To Halt Accidents
Launch Program To Prevent
Home Accidents Through
out Nation

The American Red cross mas
launched a nationwide campaign to
eliminate hazards in the home and
on the farm that now take an an.
nual toll of nearly $4,000 lives. &C.
cording to a recent statement by
James L. Fieser. vice chairman in
charge of domestic operations.
Every Red Cross chapter is being
asked to play a part in this cam
paign," Mr.. Fieser said. Hazards In
the various communities will be
pointed out. The children in our
schools throughout the country will
be given a list of the home hazards
and asked to enroll parents or rela-
tives in the fight against them"
Nearly five million men, women,
and children were temporarily dis
abled in the homes of America last
year by accidents, officials of the
National Safety Council have re-
vealed. Most of the accidents in
which persons were killed and in
jured could have been prevented,
according to this safety agency. this
fact alone largely motivating the

Active cooperation Of social, civic,
educational, veterans. and other
groups has been secured Red Cross
inspection forms or home check lists
will be distributed to homes where
there are no children with the help
of these organizations.
Due to inaccessibility and lack of
compensation coverage, little or no
pioneering has been done in the
field of farm safety, the Red Cross
states. However, more people were
accidentally killed in agricultural
pursuits last year than in any other
occupation. making the need for
safety education and farm home in.
spection apparent.
Other agencies now active in the
neutrality-suspicious. field point to the
fact that, because of its nearly 49,.
900 chapters and branches. the Red
Cross has a unique opportunity to
successfully promote a project OF
this nature.
Home accidents injure many more
than do automobile accidents; they
kill nearly as many. claiming an av.
erage off about 80 lives daily. In terms
of dollars and cents, for the practi.
cal minded, home accidents cost
more than $1,000 per minute.
Accidents Of all types are Public
Enemy No. 4. Only three diseases
cause as many deaths each year,
heart disease, cancer. and cerebral
hemorrhage.
"The home is not the place of
safety it is commonly supposed to
be-" said Mr.. Fieser in commenting
on the new Red Cross service to the
community. "The Red Cross, as
part of its chartered obligation to
prevent death and alleviate suffer.

program to cut down the mounting
