The pupils of Harris School re-
sponded nObly to the cause of the
poor on Thanksgiving week. Each
room was asked to donate food of
some kind. The boxes were filled
to Overlooking when the drive was
over. A committee of the Junior
Woman's CLUB came to school and
sorted the food and delivered it to
the needy. This work is gen.
orally started and handled through
the PIT. A, but one teacher was
so concerned that she thought
fully notified the other teachers
who in turn announced it to the
children. One of the teachers
who was a Junior member of the
Woman's Club assured the teach
ers that the Club would be glad to
handle the delivery.
The party given by the pupils
of Mrs. Charlotte Haskins class
for their mothers was very sue
cessful from every viewpoint.
The entire party was planned and
executed by the pupils, each one
being responsible for certain
phase of it. This party was the
outcome of a Pilgrim Project
started by the class on November
10. Guests included Mrs. n.
johnson and son, Mrs. J. Duane
and daughter. Mrs. A. Carey and

enjoyed by an unusual large num-

of Thanksgiving, that of unselfish
giving, was stressed by both the
intermediate and primary pro-
grams. Miss Marie Haskins and

C0C0NUT OIL TAX
UPHELD BY COURT
Attack on Processing Levy
by Soap Firm Set Aside
by Justice Bailey.

Constitutionality of the processing
| tax on Philippine Island coconut oil.
which is widely used in this country as
one of the principal ingredients of
soap was upheld today by Justice Jen-
nings Bailey in District Supreme
Court.
| Haskins Bros. & Co., Omaha, Nebr.,
soap manufacturers, claiming to rep
resent the interests of some 200 other
producers, had asked that the tax
be invalidated and for a partition OF
the more than s26,000,000 collected
under it, which is being held in trust
in the Treasury for the Philippine
| government.
In the revenue act Of 1884, Congress
imposed a per-pound tax on
the first domestic processing of Philip
pine coconut oil. the proceeds Of the
| levy to be paid to the Philippine gov
ernment.
| Haskins Bros. contended the pay
ment to the Philippines was to COM
pensate the islands for the breach in
an agreement providing for the free
entry of the oil into the United States.
Citing this contention, Justice Bailey
said:
THE debts of the United States for
the payment of which Congress may
lay and collect taxes under article !.
section s, of the Constitution, are not
merely those which constitute legal
obligation, but include obligations such
as the one referred to. which are moral
obligations on the United States.
1t would seem, therefore, that the levy
| ing of this tax may be sustained both
under this provision of the Constitu-
| ton. as well as under the power to
regulate commerce"
| The soap company has contended
the tax constituted an attempt by Con-
gress to regulate the prices and in
crease the demand for domestic fats
and oils. and that this was not within
the scope of powers granted to it by
the Constitution in the commerce
clause or elsewhere. Such regulation
was reserved to the States by the tenth
! amendment, 1t argued.
The second point made by the COM
pany was that the levy was not in ex-
ercise of Congress taxing power be-
cause it was not intended to produce
revenue for the general welfare.
The further argument was put for
ward that even If the levy could be
! considered an exercise of the taxing
power. it was prohibited by the fifth
/ amendment. because the raising of
money for the benefit of the Philip
pines was not taxation for a public
purpose.
Upholding the Government, Justice
Bailey declared fatty that the act does
not attempt to regulate production.
although its effect may be to stimulate
production as do all protective tariffs.
There is no doubt that Congress
has the power to levy a processing
! tax he continued, land it would seem
to be immaterial whether this par
ticular tax is levied upon oil when it Is
imported or when it is used in manu-
! facture."
| He based his decision on the further
| point that the United States Govern
ment is real party at interest in the
proceeding. and that it has not given
! its consent to the sued
Cocoanut oil is the principal source
| of laurie acid, the constituent which
makes soap lather freely.

FARMERS AID
CROP SERVICE

More tnan 10000 selected volun-
teer workers, most Of them farmers
help the Bureau of Agricultural
Economies every month with the
crop reports.
The list sWells to more than
100000 when those are included
who report only on seasonal crops
at specific times Of the year. The
10000 urssalaried reporters fur
nish information once month
on the local farm situation and,
in emergencies, such as the drought
of 1894 or this year, they perform
this service twice a month.
These reporters, the Bureau says,
have shown a fine cooperative
spirit and a loyalty to the service
over a long period Of years. 1t IS
not unusual for a crop reporter
to serve SO years or more. Often
a son takes up the work when his
father retires. They receive no
compensation for such devotion
other than copies Of the reports
they help to make possible. The
following letter to the Bureau from
D. Y. Henry crop reporter at
Brookmeal, Va, is typical Of many
these men write:
