DISSOLUTION
CASE WON BY
COvT.OF U. S,
MAY Now Proceed in Suit
Against Aluminium
Co. Of America

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6-The Gov
eminent has won, in the Supreme
Court, the effort to continue anti
trust proceedings in the Southern
New York Federal District Court
seeking dissolution of the Aluminium
Company Of America
The decision of three judges OF
the Circuit Court in Philadelphia,
permitting the Department of JUS
tice to go ahead with litigation,
has thus been affirmed. Chief JUS
tice Charles Evans Hughes and AS
sociate Justice Stone did not parti-
cipate in the opinion.
The Aluminium Company of
America contended that the litiga-
ton, if any was needed, should be
brought in the Federal District
Court at Pittsburgh where consent
to a decree against the company
was filed in 1912.
The case. at present involves 62
other defendant concerns interested
in aluminium products.

BUILDERS OF
FED. PROJECTS
MAY Be TAXED
Supreme Court Hands Down
Decision of Far Reach
ing Importance

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The SUI
preme Court today handed down a
decision ruling that states may i'm
pose gross income tax on money
paid contractors by the Federal
Government for construction Of
locks and dams within the borders
of the individual state.
Chief Justice Hughes delivered
the five to four decision which was
made in litigation involving the tax
es imposed by Washington State on
West Virginia contractors building
locks and dams for the Federal gov
eminent.
Associate Justices Roberts, Nc
Reynolds, Sutherland and Butler
dissented.
The decision represented a VIC
tory for the Federal Government
which interviewed as "a friend of
the court" to support such taxes.
Some legal observers see in the
decision the broadening of Federal
taxation. Contractors involved in
the Washington State case are the
builders of the Grand Coulee Dam.
