Py the Associated Press
The Board of Tax Appeals ruled to-
day that part of the salary Of member
of Virginia's Alcoholic Beverage Con-
troll Board is subject to Federal income
tax.
The decision was made in the appeal
of Robert Mccarthy Burlington, men,
Der of the board, from an assessment
by the internal revenue commissioner
of income tax deficiencies totaling s423
for 1884 and 1885.
The Tax Appeals Board ruled that
the A. B. C's regulation of the
manufacture, distribution, sale and
use of alcoholic beverages was an es-
sential, traditional governmental func-
ton, and the portion of a members
salary allocated to such regulation was
not taxable.
The portion of his salary allocated
to merchandising business in State
liquor stores was taxable, the board
ruled. because that could not be classi-
fled as an essential governmental func-
ton. The Tax Appeals Board ac-
cepted Bullington's estimate his time
was divided on about a four -to-one
basis" and held one-fifth of his salary
was subject to the Federal income tax

GREENBELT, Md, Oct. ALLEN
D. Morrison, elected to membership
on the Greenbelt Town Council last
week, will use half of his s10O yearly
salary for prizes for the healthiest
boys and girls in the model community
all because he does not favor the
idea Of a council voting itself raise.
Mr.. Morrison explained that he
voted for a $50 annual salary for
members of the council but had been
outvoted for the higher stipend. He
will be given his regular salary but
will return it in the form of prizes,
he explained
"In refusing to take more than $50
am doing no more than following
the dictates of my own conscience"
he declared. II hope this action will
not be misinterpreted by my friends
on the council. They had every right
to vote themselves this raise, just as
have right to refuse it,"
MIR. Morrison's tentative plans call
for competition between boys and girls
in classes from infancy to the age of
is. The first prize in each class will
be IS; second, So, and third, 81.
