Fair Hearing Assured.

Washingtonians are grateful to Chair
man Hatton Summers and to the MEM
bers of the Judiciary Committee Of the
House for the opportunity given them to
present the case of national representa-
ton. The hope of the advocates Of ma
tional representation who appear before
the committee is that their arguments in
behalf of proper amendment of the Con-
stitution will result in as strongly favor
able report as that which followed the
Senate hearings in 1922.
The news columns of The Star today
and during the extent Of the hearings
will present fully the arguments in sup
port of the claim of Washingtonians for
the right Of participating in their gov
eminent. But there is additional interest
in the fine spirit of unanimity which has
so far held together the various elements
of local population working for the same
objective, though possibly favoring diff
ferent paths of approach. There is no
longer much disagreement over the fact
that the fundamental objective is
amendment of the Constitution EN-
towering Congress to grant rights to the
people of Washington which apparently
are forbidden under the interpretations
of the Constitution as it is today. The
extent to which Congress itself will be
willing to 60 in utilizing this new power

Vote Proved Sentiment for
National Representation

40 the GrulCOI u i Hc AUdIs
The recent overwhelming plebiscite IN
favor of national representation for
Washington shows radical change OF
sentiment of many who formerly opposed
such action. Because Of poor attend
ance Of Congressman upon meetings OF
the District Committee and the few
members present when the House Is
scheduled to consider District affairs.
there is growing belief that we cannot
expect considerate treatment from our
national legislators until we are repre-
sented In both House and Senate.
The vote for national representation
cannot be considered as critical Of the
present form of the District government,
or of the efficiency of our Commissioners
and other officers but local opinion is
almost unanimous that District inter-
ests can best be served by the presence
in Congress of our elected representa-
tives, we'll posted upon matters pertain
ing to the District in It's relations to the
National Government, who can particl-
pate in committee hearings and In de-
bates, with opportunity for instant cor
rection of misleading and unenlightened
statements.
Each year when the District appro-
priation bill is considered by the House,
unWarranted statements are made BY
some members in advocating reducing
the national contribution, or in favor OF
doing away with any contribution by the
Government, due generally to lack OF
information on the subject. The records
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1887,
show that 1.-The District citizens paid to
the Government in national taxes, in
Guiding income, excise and other miscel-
laneous internal revenue, but emitting
payroll tax collections under Social Sc
curity and Carrier Acts. not included in
other years, the sum of $21,620,010.'
When Congress returns to us $5000,-
O00-less than one-fourth of the revenue
we pay to the National Treasury-is this
in reality making any contribution by
the Government? Isn't it theory rath-
er than fact?
When Congressman clamor for all
kinds of Federal aid for their districts.
they should remember that residents Of
Washington pay almost $50 per capita
toward maintaining the District of Co.
lumbia, while the per capita tax OF each
constituent in the States. outside the
National Capital. for making up the
$5,00O000 Of the Federal contribution, is
only cents and few mills. based upon
the accepted population of 130,000,00O
people in the United States.
Because New York and some other
Eastern States pay more Federal taxes
than they receive benefits in return from
the National Government. does not war
rant discrimination against Washington,
for this is the National Capital which
should be. and is. the pride of the citi-
zens of all sections of the country. This
is shown by the constantly growing
crowds of tourists now happily Capital
conscious who express themselves as IA
voring fair and liberal treatment for the
National Seat of Government.

and the specific method that Congress
might choose in utilizing it are not for
the moment of paramount Importance.
But it is difficult to see how Congress,
after fair study of the issue involved,
could consistently refuse to present to
the people of the States the question Of
constitutional amendment giving to Con-
gress new power or powers.
The hearings which begin today pre-
sent the opportunity-the first, Incl
dentally in many years-for fair con-
sideration of the issue by one Of the
committees of Congress which is in a
position to decide how and when the
Congress itself will take up the matter
for serious consideration. Washington
Is assured Of fair hearing and hopes
are naturally high for a successful out
come from the point of view of the over
whelming majority in this community
who are pleading for the fundamental
rights of American citizens.

The New Commissioner.

The engineer commiSSionership OF the
District of Columbia is an assignment in
military circles that carries not only
prestige but grave civic responsibility.
President Roosevelt, therefore, has con-
ferred a signal honor on Lieutenant
Colonel David McCoach, jr. OF the Army
Corps of Engineers, in appointing him to
succeed Colonel Daniel I. Sultan next
September.
Army officers who have been accorded
the privilege in the past of serving as
engineer member of the Board OF Com
missioners know that this homer is not
to be taken lightly. The post is no sine
cure, to be sought after by officers in
trigued by the swirl of life in the Ma
tons Capital. There is work to do in
the Engineer Commissioners office at
the District Building, work that is some
times arduous but always constructive
and interesting.
Despite the burdens of the Office, most
of the Army men who have served the
people of the District OF Columbia as
Engineer Commissioner have enjoyed the
experience and have left behind them
host of civilian friends. Colonel Sultan is
no exception.
Events of the past have shown that
the officers who have been more sue
cessful in meeting the varied require
ments of the commissionership were
those who, by temperament as well as
training, were able to adjust themselves
to the unmilitary standards of civil life
peculiar to this military assignment.
They realized fully that the District of
Columbia was not an Army station, to be
ruled by military decree, but city Of
voteless civilians to be served sympa-
thetically and efficiently. Colonel Sultan
and majority of his predecessors never
lost sight of these facts. They proved
themselves to be real public servants in
every sense of the term.
Colonel McCoach need have no qualms
about undertaking his scheduled duties
at the District Building a few months
hence He will find his two civilian
colleagues and the entire citizenry of
the District ready to cooperate with him
in making Washington model Ameri-
can city.
The Star congratulates Colonel Nc
Coach on being singled out for this OPP
portunity for public service, and thanks
Col. Sultan for his highly efficient and
always considerate performance of the
duties which he is soon to relinquish.

Tax Protection.

Coming so soon after the revision of
the revenue laws and the extended con-
troversy over the undistributed corporate
profits tax, this weeks decision of the
Supreme Court in the National Grocery
case is of particular significance.
The case revolved around what is now
section 102 of the Revenue Laws pre-
scribing heavy penalty tax for accumu-
lation of unreasonable SURPRISES when
such accumulations are considered to be
for the purpose of evading high indi-
vidual surtaxes. Under the law as ap-
piled in this case the burden of proof
must be borne by the Government.
In these proceedings, the commissioner
Of internal revenue and the Board of Tax
Appeals found such improper accumula-
lions and assessed the penalty tax. After
. reversal by the Circuit Court of APP
peals, the Government was upheld this
week by the Supreme Court.
The significance of the ultimate dis
position of the case is this: Principal
objection of administration spokesman to
the complete elimination of the undis-
tributed profits tax was that corporations
could revert to former practices of re-
tanning unneeded SURPRISES for the pur-
pose of relieving large stockholders from
the heavy individual income surtaxes.
Reminded of section 102, their conten-
ton was that it was too difficult of en-
forcement to be effective.
Those seeking repeal of the undis-
tributed profits tax argued. however,
that section 102 had forced distribution
Of corporate profits and that the Gov
eminent had been upheld in nine out of
sixteen cases where the penalty provis-
ions had been invoked.
This weeks victory for the Government
hot only brings this record to tep out OF

seventeen, but contains the important
announcement that the contested section
is fully constitutional when applied to any
type of corporation which may be avail
ed of" for the forbidden purpose. In
other words, the section is sound and is
effectively enforceable.
Further facilitating the enforceability,
however, was change in section 1O2 in
the tax bill just passed, by which the
burden of proof was transferred from
the Government to the tax-paying cor
poration where such improper accumu-
lations are charged.
With the effectiveness of the section
not only further established but further
strengthened, it must be added to the
already convincing opposition toward
any remnants of the undistributed profits
tax

Probe of Trusts Renews
Interest in Sherman Law

To the Editor OF The Star:
The investigation proposed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt of monopolies, trusts and
combinations and of ways and means to
prevent and suppress the same renews
interest in the present Federal antitrust
law. The fundamental Federal anti
trust law, commonly known as the Sher-
man Antitrust Act, is the work Of
many brilliant minds. In its present
form it embodies not only the best
thought of its distinguished authors but
Is the development of nearly so years of
Supreme Court decisions constituting and
defining it.
The evils prohibited by it are not
definitely defined. Possibly some minor
Improvement can be made in the law
through more specific prohibitions and
limitations as has already been attempted
: by several acts, such as the Federal Trade
Commission Act and the Clayton Act.
Yet the evils sought to be prohibited by
the law are of such character that like
fraud they are incapable of exact def
milton.
The failure of the Federal antitrust
law TO secure any great public benefit
lies not SO much in the lack of definition
as in the inherent difficulty of control
ling economic forces by law. At best
only moderate success can be hoped for
In any law seeking to control, regulate
or safeguard free competition or other
economic forces in our national life.
While I would be the last one to con-
tend that because of the inherent diff
Guilty involved in attempting to control
and regulate economic forces by law,
thai no effort should be made to i'm
prove our antitrust laws, yet am con-
vinced that whatever relief is obtained
from trusts, combinations and monopo-
lies will be obtained primarily through
the corrective powers of economic forces
rather than through any law or laws.
Fortunately, the more excessive the
size of the combination, the more likely it
is to be hobbled with red tape and in
efficiency, and the more it attempts to
use its power to maintain exorbitant
prices and make excessive profits. the
more do the competitors of the combina-
ton old and new expand and take the
business and the more quickly does the
combination lose its power.
Doubtless, the most Objectionable fea-
ture of the huge combination of COM
petitors whose size is so great that it
exceeds that necessary for economic pro-
duction is not its price exactions from
the public, but its tendency toward the
Capitalization of industry, which in turn
tends toward the Capitalization of gov
eminent This is doubtless the most
dangerous tendency of today.

THIS AND THAT
,, CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Relaxation, q correspondent states, -
the real secret Of listening to music. He
found 1t out by watching his canartes
as they listen to the radio. The happiest
and friendliest birds, and the best sing
ers, were the ones which took all that
came, good and bad alike, and responded
to 1t.
Relaxation, of course, is just another
name for tolerance.
Whether one relaxes mentally or phys
ically, or both, 1t becomes a sort OF tol-
erance of conditions at the time and
place. .
One cannot relax by leaping up and
growing red in the face over Swing"
for instance
There is, Of course, nothing very re-
taxing about much music in itself; II
there is to be any relaxation from 1t,
1t must come as willed thing. direct
from the mind, and thence to the mus
cles.
AS America has grown more and more
nervous and tense, there has grown up
a widening desire for relaxation.
Even the tensest people realize the
need for it.
1t is possible to accept any music sim
ply by listening quietly to it.
When this mood is achieved, one Will
find that he has relaxed all along the
line, both mentally and physically.
Perhaps it is impossible to accomplish
this good relaxation in concert hall.
The very presence of so many other peo-
pie, practically all of them strangers,
keeps the music lover keyed up.
1t is exactly here that the photograph
plays its best service.
In the home one is, or at least ought
to be. able to relax perfectly.
This may be cultivated musically, by
playing what one pleases, in any order
whatsoever, thing utterly impossible
in the concert hall.
If the music lover attends the formal
concert Of great violinist, he hears
great music, with few light" numbers
as encores.
He cannot expect to hear symphony
and dance piece one after the other.
- X
That, however is exactly what he can
and should do at home with his gramo-
phone and his records.
Such changes of mood and musicians
are impossible anywhere else.
BY such swift paced changes the
listener is able to build up a mood Of
great tolerance. which means also of
great relaxation.
After he has discovered for himself
the only real way-that music is in the
ears. and not on paper, he is able to
enjoy all music as it comes. provided,
Of course. that 1t Is worth listening to.
A surprising discovery is often the re-
suit.
It is that far more music is worth
listening to than one had supposed. For
music is sound, and sound knows moth
ing of mans likes and dislikes, his moods
and measures, his theories.
Musical construction may be theoreti-
cal, in sense, but the result of the
theories is not theory, If one may put it
that way, but sound.
Sound is music. and often these sounds
