D. c. BUSINESS TAX
ATTACKED IN SUIT
Advertising Firm Head Seeks
to Enjoin Enforcement
of Levy.

The first legal attack on the new
District business license fee and gross
revenue tax was made in District
Court this afternoon by Howard w.
Berry. head Of an advertising arm,
who asked that the levies be declared
unconstitutional IS burdens on inter-
state commerce.
Asserting that if he refuses to pay
the tax and license fee he will be
criminally liable, Berry asked the
court to enjoin enforcement of the
taxes. The suit was directed against
the District Commissioners, Collector
OF Taxes Chatham Powers and A. r.
Brooke, director OF enforcement Of the
gross receipts tax.
Through Attorneys Richard I. Ted
row and William Cogger, Berry said
he was engaged in the ADVERTISING
business during 1896 in partnership
With Ralph 6pangler, trading as the
Spangler and Berry Advertising
Agency. On January S, last, however
Spaneler Is said to have Assumed the
entire business and Berry established
the Howard w. Berry Advertising
Agency with oflices in The Star Build
ing.
Effect Of Nom Payment.
In event the tax is held to be legal
and found to be owed by him, Berry
declared. he could not pay it. He
added If he did not pay the tax for
the year 1896 the District Comms-
sioners would have authority to pre.
vent him from engaging in business,
thus 'depriving him of property with
out due process of law.
Unless the court intervenes, he con-
tinued, tax collection officials will at
tempt to force him to pay $40 license
fee and a tax Of two-flfths of per
cent on the gross income of the
Spangler-Berry partnership. He said
he is engaged in interstate commerce.
Invoking the courts injunctive
power, Berry pointed out it is doubt
ful he could recover any taxes paid
should the law ultimately be found to
be invalid.
Sees No Reinforcement Method.
He pointed out the statute provises
no procedure for determining its
validity before taxes are assessed un-
der it and no method for reimburse
ment Of the taxpayer.
A motion for 4 temporary injunc-
tion accompanied the suit and must
be answered by the defendants within
five days.
Berry said he was uncertain
whether he or Spangler or either
would be liable under the gross re-
ceipts tax should the law be sustained.

Vigorous Protest Is
Delivered byCrew
inTOkiO.
WRITTEN NOTE

Reply Made to Oral
Plea-COntents
AreCuarded..
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The United States Government nut
Japan formally on notice today that
1t would be held responsible for any
damage suffered by Americans as a
result OF japanese military operations
In the Nanking area.
In vigorous protest against jap
anese bombing attacks on the Chinese
capital, presented to the Japanese
foreign minister in Toxic, this Gov
eminent reiterated the view that any
general bombing Of such an extensive
area OF population lis unwarranted
and contrary to principles of law and
OF humanity" Previously it had reg
tstered oral objections to the bombing
The note directed attention to the
previous representation made soon
after the japanese naval command at
Shanghai had warned foreigners they
should move from Marking into safer
areas or risk peril from the intended
aerial attack.
Objects to Periling Lives.
''The American Government objects
both to such jeopardizing OF the lives
Of its nationals and of non-c -combatants
generally and to the suggestion that its
officials and nationals now residing in
and around Marking should withdraw
from the areas in which they are law
fully carrying on their legitimate ac-
tivities,' the American note said.
The American Government strongly
objects to the creation of a situation
in consequence of which the Ameri-
can Ambassador and other agencies of
this Government are confronted with
the alternative of abandoning their
establishments or being exposed to
grave hazards"
The note added:
The American Government. there
fore, reserving all rights on its own
behalf and on behalf OF American ma
tionals in respect to damages which
result from Japanese military opera
tions in the Nanking area, expresses
the earnest hope that further bombing
In and around the city OF NAnking will
be avoided"
Note Calls for Reply.
The new protest Is in the form
which under ordinary diplomatic pro-
cedure calls for 4 reply from the re-
cipient. This was not the case with
the former oral objection.
Delivery Of the note was announced
by Secretary Hull. who told his press
conference that the new representa-
tion differed from those addressed
previously to the Japanese govern
ment in that it constituted a formal
written note to the japanese foreign
miniser.
The previous protest, made on the
ground that the threatened bombing
violated humanitarian and interna-
tional laws, was delivered orally.
The new representation was con-
veyed to the japanese foreign minister
by American Ambassador Joseph G.
Grew at $50 pm. today, Toxic time
$3.50 am, Eastern standard Nme).

NANK1NG, September 22.-Less
than 48 hours after British and Amer
ican protests to the japanese govern
ment against unrestricted lombard
ment Of this capital more than 50
Japanese airplanes twice rained death
and destruction from the skies today,
killing. wounding or burning to death
more than 200 nom -combatant Chinese.
Those killed or injured were mostly
those who had been too feeble or help
less to join the exodus into the safety
OF the surrounding countryside.
Dozens of incendiary bombs and
high explosives fell into their wretched
straw huts in the Hsiakwan slum dis
trict between the walled section of
the city and the Yangtze River. The
huts burned like match boxes. Many
were trapped and burned to death.
Already accustomed to the horrify-
ing results Of II previous air raids
here, this correspondent, who has re-
ported dozen civil wars, famines and
plaques ir China, nevertheless was
sickened at the sight OF women, chill
dren and old men, already burned to
death or beyond aid. In many places
heaps of diSmembered legs, arms and
heads were seen. The odor Of burning
bodies sickened the stomach and ap-
palled the senses.
70 Americans ENDANGERED.
Twenty Americans, including seven
women, were endangered by the bonn
bardments and the screen OF fire raised
by Chinese anti-aircraft batteries
against the raiders.
Despite the American and British
protests against bombardment OF civil
ian populations and private property,
the most densely populated section
OF the city was attacked, including
the new residential district where the
American, Italian. German and Meth
erlands Embassies or Legations are
situated and also the homes OF vir-
tually all American and foreign resi-
dents.
Thirty sections of the capital were
bombed, with an average OF three
bombs for each spot. The stations of
two OF China's most important rail-
ways. the Shanghai-Nanking and
Tientsin-Pukow lines, were bombed.
These stations are near where Amer
ican, British, French and Italian
warships are anchored In the Yang
tze
Many additional civilian casualties
resulted in this area.
II the apanese aviators were direct
ing their attack principally against
government buildings and military
barracks, they failed. Not one of these
points was seriously damaged. Chi
