UNlYtn PSX~S

The series or cases decided by
the supreme court March 1897, the
memorandum said. demonstrates a
constitutional philosophy contrary
to that on which the exemption
doctrine originally was based.
."Among other things" it said,
these cases show that even the
states themselves are not immune
when they enter the field of sports
on a commercial scale; that income
derived from exempt property is
not immune; that an individuals S
income derived from private sources
by virtue of public employment is
not immune; that income derived
from public sources by virtue of
an independent contract is not
immune; and that income derived
from public sources by virtue of
public employment is not always
immune, and may never be i'm
nune."

Samish Scheduled
To Face Courts
Twice in Week

SACRAMENTO, July 25 CUP)-
Two court appearances were sched-
uled this week for Arthur H. Sam
ish. San Francisco lobbyist who
has been closely questioned before
the Sacramento grand jury on his
public relations work for important
California business interests.
An alternative writ of prohibition
will be argued tomorrw in the third
district court of appeals, where
Samish is seeking court intervention
against publicizing of his income
tax records. District Attorney Otis
D. Baocock subpenaed his tax
working sheets for 1886, 1887, and
1888 but Samish's attorneys blocked
the move with the court writ. They
contended his tax forms are his
private affair and should not be
presented before the public hear
ingS of the grand jury.
On Wednesday. the lobbyist will
be arraigned in justice court on a
perjury charge. He was arrested
last Thursday and posted $4,000
bail. The prosecution contends his
testimony conflicted with that OF
NC. Levee, Hollywood picture agent
who paid him $4,000 last year
Samish testified his fees were not
for legisltive service while Levee
said he was hired to watch and
work against legislation detrimental
to agents.

famous line of Scientific Shoes, his eff
forts were crowned with success.
Mr. Webb, who has for years been
headquarters for DR.. Schools Foot
Comfort Appliances and Remedies,
has arranged with DR.. Scholl, to de-
monstrate his Scientific Shoes at the
Webb's Henderson Shoe Store, Friday,
April 1. DR.. ScholPs Foot and Shoe
Experts will bring with them advances
showings of the complete line of DR..
Schools new style shoes. There will be
622 fittings to meet the most fas-
tidious tastes and all types of feet, in
sizes for men from to IA; for wo
men from IL to 10; in widths from
AAAA to ZEE.
Unless one has made an intensive
study of the feet, one would never
realize how many differenet kinds of
feet there are. Here is a woman who
has a short, stubby foot; the next is q
man with long, slim foot with a mar
row heel; the next customer has a
high arch and, his friend, weak, brok-
en-down arches. Then there are le-
gions who have foot troubles; such as
corns. callouses, bunions, crooked
overlapping toes and those who con-
tinually run their heels over. In short,
many people will tell you 81 have the
hardest foot in the world to fit" it is
this class, Mr.. Webb says, who SHOULD
be vitality interested in DR.. Scholl's
Scientific Shoes.
With this array of shoes there viii
be included the latest model X-ray
Machine, the Photograph and DR..
Scholl's Automatic Shoe Sizer. In test
ing feet and fitting these shoes all
guesswork is eliminated.
Dr. Scholl has given the growing
feet of children the same careful cor
sideration as he has adults. He claim
that many of the foot ailments from
which men and women suffer today
can be traced back to improperly
made or fitted shoes when their fee
were in the tender plastic stage o.
childhood.
