MD. u. TOWER
IS SOLD FOR
SCRAP IRON

COLLEGE PARK, Md, April Is
Maryland University's celebrated
water tower, whose dome-like top
rising 120 feet above the college
campus, marks the highest point
in this section of Maryland, is
doomed to go-and with it goes
the daring midnight eScapades
that for many years have been q
traditional feature Of freshman
sophomore rivalry.
Workmen, armed with acetylene
torches, today clambered UP the
superstructure and began shearing
through the huge metal tank that
bears the painted numerals OF
many first and second year class
The iron and steel structure, pur'
chased by the Continental Iron
and Metal Company Of Baltimore,
at price reported to be approx
mately $500, will be dismantled
and sold as scrap to one Of the
European nations now girding for
war, it was said.
Glasses Paint Numerals
But before the task of demoli-
tion was started, members OF the
spresent freshmen end sophomore
classes get in their final licks with
the paint brush.
Some time Tuesday night, when
word went around that the tower
must go, q group of sophomoreS
climbed to the peak and inscribed
the insignia '39 in bold numerals.
Not content, they literally creased
the metal ladder on the way down
in an effort to insure permanence
Of their handiwork.
The freshmen, however, sent
their own delegation to the top
despite the slippery stairs. Next
morning the numerals of the class
Of 40 loomed atop the tower in
yellow paint.
Shake Hands Atop Tower
Content to call it quits, the
presidents of the two lower
classes - Thomas Scharf, sopho-
more, and Robert Lodge, fresh
man-yesterday met on the plat
form atop the tower and shook
hands.
According to university authori-
ties, the water tower was built in
1904 and was maintained in use
until 1925. At that time, finding
it would cost them $400 to have
the structure demolished, officials
permitted it to remain. Because
Of its elevation, the tower was
used in recent years as a triangu-
latfon station by the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission.
Razing of the structure will be
completed within a week, it was
said. .....

Earlier the court had upheld the
legality Of the Louisiana chain store
tax and had also approved broad

IN the amended Frazer-Lemke act.
Legality of the Louisiana chain store
tax was upheld by 4-to-3 vote, JUS

Justices Sutherland, Butler and Nc.
Reynolds dissented.
Validity OF the tax had been Ques-

ROME, May l7.-Diplomatic cir
cles today considered highly signifi-
cant the recently increasing efforts
of Italy and Germany to bind Japan
more closely to them in an anti
Communist front.
Germany and Japan signed an anti
Communist pact last November and
at the same time Japan and Italy
reached an understanding on trade
questions. These accords, however,
have not been popular with the
Japanese people in spite Of the Toxic
governments attempts to "sell' them

Therefore creation Of closer cul-
tural bonds has been the principal
aim Of the two European Fascist pow
ers in wooing Japan. Informed OBJ

ernments are trying to instill in their
peoples the idea that at least a spirit
ual tie binds them.

Premier Mussolini and Reichs-
fuehrer Hitler, already working in
harmony in European affairs, have
turned their eyes toward Japan. ap-
parently hoping to include Japan in
a lineup opposed to Anglo-French-
Soviet corporation.
German friendship with Japan is
expected to receive impetus from the
visit of Prince Chichibu, brother of
Emperor Hirohito, when he arrives
in Berlin after a round of coronation

should be construed as intended to
deny q refund in any case where a
claimant is constitutionally entitled
to it. We apply the familiar canon
which makes 1t our duty, of two DOS
slble constructions, to adopt the one
which will save and not DESTROY. We
cannot attribute to Congress an intent
to defy the fifth amendment or even
to come so near to doing so as to raise
serious question Of constitutional
law
When the Congress requires the
claimant, who has paid the invalid
tax, to show that he has not been
reimbursed or has not shifted its bur-
den, the provision should not be con-
strued as demanding the performance
OF a task, if ultimately found tc be
inherently impossible, as condition
OF relief to which thee laimant would
otherwise be entitled. There is ample
room for the play of the statute within
the range of possible determinations
1t cannot be doubted that the REQUIRE
ment has appropriate and valid effect
in placing upon the claimant the
duty to present fully all the facts per-
tanning to the question OF the shift
ing OF the burden of the tax and in
denying relief where the facts Justify
conclusion that the burden has been
shifted from the claimant to others.
Facts MuSf Re- Shnu,,,
In saying this, we are not passing
upon the constitutional right of
petitioner to refund or upon the
question whether in its case the shift
ing of the burden OF the tax is or Is
not susceptible of proof Constitu-
tional questions are not to be decided
alphabetically. When particular facts
control the decision they must be
shown. Petitioners contention as to
impossibility of preef is premature.
Manhestly there is no impossibility
so far as the production Of proof OF
petitioners operations or course of
business is concerned What is
meant by impossibility of proof is
impoSsibility Of determination after
these facts are in. Whether or not
any such impossibility Of determina-
tion will exist is question which
properly should await the ascertain
ment Of the facts. For the present
purpose it is sufficient to hold, and
we do hold, that the petitioner may
constitutionally be required to present
all the pertinent facts in the pre-
scribed administrative proceeding and
