sentative Jack Nichols CD of Ok.

mittee yesterday that the income

when Congress legislates for the
District it takes the status of a
State legislature, and q State
cannot tax Federal incomes. He
added that if the income tax were
not made to apply to Federal
employees here, the bulk Of the
revenue expected under it would
be lost.
Representative Nichols then
urged the retail sales tax, point
ing out that 1t would be futile
for Congress to enact the in.

to be thrown out by the courts
and the necessity again would
arise for enacting additional tax

Representative Everett Dirksen

court plan, suggested Dodd be re-

powers like those exercised in
Europe. One man, 1 have been
told by personal friends, who

from that Of october 81, 1886.
Then the Civic Theater was COM
pletely unknown and improved
to the city. Everyone was nice
and interested, but a bit doubt
full about the new group" that
seemed to spring UP so sud-
denly.
Only those who knew the
long, hard climb from early

Washington to have a theater

full stage set william Girvan

threats and high hopes and

hearts.
When the final curtains
closed, they thought they had
won their gamble. When en-
thuSiastic notices appeared next
day, they were almost sure, and
when packed houses, not only
for that play but the majority
of the season, developed, they
knew.
