CAR TAXLAW
UNDER FIRE

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 4. U.P)--
Constitutionaley of the new state
automobile license tax law was
under fire from two quarters TO-
day.
The state supreme court today
took under submission a test case
involving the issue of whether
war veterans may claim exemp-
ton from the tax under their
81 900 property exemption allow
ance.
Friends of the court" given
until Monday to file briefs, i'm
mediately stepped in to the case
with the announced intention of
challenging constitutionality Of the
act. The tax supplants a valua-
ton tax formerly collected by cities
and counties.
John w. Holmes, Deputy City
Attorney of Pasadena, commended
that the legislature in enacting the
new law was taking away the tax
right of a chartered city. He es-
tiraated Pasadena would lose $50
900 annually from the shift.
The California State Automobile
association ond the Automobile
Association and the Automobile
Club of Southern California an
nounced they would file briefs with
the state supreme. court, debating
constitutionality of the law.
The court today also conducted
a hearing on a petition by the
state department of motor vehicles
for a writ of mandate to compel
the state controller to draw war
rants for printing exemption forms
required to collect the tax.
"Our interest in constitutionality
Of this new law is a matter of pro-
lection to the motoring public"
said Percy E. Towne, general coun-
sci for the state automobile asso-
citation.

Lecuona's "Malaguena' were fol-
lowed by two of Bracher's
own compositions, unnamed as yet.
Both were decidedly interesting
and something unique for a young
composer in that they were more
in the classical style of compost
ton than the modern.
Rachmaninoff's Prelude in G
Sharp Minor" brought this program
to a close.
BY special request the pianist
played Brahms "Intermezzo" for
a few who remained after the con-
cert. His Brahms numbers were
particularly sympathetic, the young
musician confessing to a great ad-
miration for the work of Brahms.
Mr.. Bracher holds a music
scholarship at Occidental College
and after he completes his final
year there hopes to study in
Europe.
