LIMITS DEDUCTION
ON RECEIPTS TAX
Assessor Rules Only Gas
and Admissions LevieS
Qualify in Reduction.

Ending the uncertainty over what
excise taxes may be deducted from the
gross receipts reported by taxpayers
under the Districts business privilege
levy, Assessor Fred D. Allen has ruled
that only the District gas tax and
the Federal admissions tax may be
allowed as exemptions.
The rule was adopted yesterday by
the assessor on the recommendation
of Allen F. Brooke, administrator of
the business privilege levy. When
several thousand returns, claiming de-
ductions for some of the excise taxes
were received, Brooke requested a
formal opinion from Corporation
Counsel Elwood H. Seal, but the latter
decided the question was one OF fact
and not law. The assessors action
then was taken.
The importer, wholesaler and retailer
will be allowed q deduction on the
District tax on gasoline, Mr.. Brooke
announced. A deduction Of the ad-
missions tax they collect for the Fed
eral Government will be allowed In
the case of theaters, amusement parks,
concert halls and the like.
Assessor Allen ruled the following
may not be deducted from gross re-
ceipts: Liquor, tobacco, automobile
and all other excise taxes. The classi-
f1cation of the taxes follows almost
exactly the informal opinions given
in the last two weeks by District on
cials.

DRIVER SENTENCED.
WITNESSES LACKING
Given SIS Fine or 80 Days in Jail
for Allegedly Operating Car
While intoxicated

Howard E Bryan, 900 block of I
street NV, believed to be the first
man convicted in the District on O
charge Of driving while drunk when
there were no actual witnesses to his
driving the car, was sentenced by
Police Court Judge John P. Mcmahon
today to pay SIS fine or serve 30
days in jail.
Bryan had been in Jail since October
rs when he was arrested by Policeman
Roger Randall, who told the court he
found Bryan intoxicated, sitting at the
wheel Of an automobile parked illegally
in the 1700 block of Kenyon street
NV, with the ignition key in place.
Bryan testified he had been riding
around with . fellow cab driver, who
had been driving his car, but he told
The Judge he old not tnow the mans
name or where ne lived or ally one
who might know him.
The case, prosecuted by Assistant
Corporation Counsel George d. Nell
son, was believed to set a precedent
that would reverse previous procedure
under which many persons have es-
capped prosecution on charges Of driv-
ing while drunk because there were no
witnesses to testify that the car ac-
tually Was In motion while the alleged
ly intoxicated person was at the wheel.
