WOULD DITCH.
PLAN FOR LEVY
ON INCOMES
One Per Cent Impost
Would Yield District
$3,35O,0OO,He Says

Substitution Of a sales tax for
the controversial proposed income
tax was recommended today by
Corporation Counsel Elwood Seal.
Mr.. Seal estimated that a per
cent levy Of sales would yield
$3,350,00 and, with the exemp-
ton of necessities, the revenue.
would amount to $2,85O,00O.
Pointing out that the constitu.
tionality of the proposed income
tax has been doubted, the cor.
poration counsel declared:
"There wouldn't be any ques-
ton Of the cOnstitutiOnaIity Of
the sales tax"
Seal further pointed out that
such a sales tax would not raise
the funds necessary to meet the
$4,000, 900 deficit but that its sub
stitution would not necessarily
mean abandonment Of any other
tax measure, in addition to the
income tax, now being considered
by the District Commissioner in
conjunction with a special con-
gressional tax subcommittee.
He also suggested the plausible
ity Of a two-cent tax on each pack.

trict, estimating that this tax
would yield about 81 ,00O, 900 a year.
The subcommittee sessions will
be resumed Tuesday. Yesterdays
meeting was cancelled when only
two members of the subcommittee
were able to appear.

OF BILL
ON ABATT0|R
DISPUTED
Witnesses Differ as to
Whether GobeI Plant
Would Be Barred

AS the Senate subcommittee
hearing on a bill prohibiting the
operation of so-called nuisance"
industries in the District, went
into its fourth day today, q con.
troversy has arisen as to whether
the bill will actually stop opera
ton Of the Adolph Gobel abattoir
in the city or not.
Witnesses testifying in the three
sessions held so far have several
times voiced their opinion that
the bill would eliminate the Gobel
plants operations. The Gobel plant
which formerly was in operation,
burned down in 1888. Since then
plans have been made to remodel
the portion saved from the fire,
and to reopen.
Doubt Created
Corporation Counsel Elwood
Seal and others have expressed
the opinion that the plant now
falls under the category Of new en-
terprises and could not reopen.
This line of thought has pro-
crossed so far that two witnesses
at yesterdays hearings testified
they would be willing to contribute
money to reimburse the company
for their vested right in the prop
erty if the bill passed and pro-
hibited its continuance.
In questioning one of the wit
nesses, Miss Harlean James, Sec
rotary of the American Planning
and Civic Association. Senator
Pat McCarran CD. Nevada,
raised the doubt in the interpre-
tation of the bill by asking her
If she did not know that the
Gobel company could continue to
operate if it met all the require
mentS Of the bill.
She replied that she did not
understand the measure in that
light.
H. Peter Henschin, architect
for the plant, was the first wit
ness at yesterdays hearing and
testified that under the new de-
velopments in rendering there
would be no odor from the plant
further than 200 to $50 feet from
it. He said the plant would cost
$1,250,000 when completed.
Copeland Testifies
He was followed on the stand
by Senator Royal s. Copeland
CD, New York, who testified
that from his experience as
health commissioner Of New York
city he thought it would take a
miracle" to operate a rendering
plant without creating q nui-
sance. He protested vigorously
against allowing an abattoir to
operate in the Nations Capital.
DR.. Charles B. Campbell, repre-
Senting the Federation Of Citizens
Associations read a resolution from
the federation opposing the plant,
and also entered a protest against
continuance on the ground that it
would be injurious to health.
Miss James also opposed it and
favored the bill as a part of a
drive inaugurated by her asso-
citation to clear the city of all
nuiSances.
The last witness was Francis
P. Sullivan who favored the bill
in order to keep the city's aesthetic
values at their height. Miss James
and Mr.. Sullivan offered to con.
tribute money to paying the pack
ing company for their right in the
property they now have, If that
would eliminate the operation.
The hearings will be continued
at 2 p. m. today.
