Report of the citizens advisory
tax committee, which calls for a
sales tax for the District in the
event the Federal payment is not

clared in favor of the sales tax as a
means of preventing "the same
conglomeration of taxes" now in
effect, which includes the unpopu-
lar business privilege and the 25-
cert increased real estate tax. LuSk
declared the sales tax had been
in % States.
Hugh V. KeiSer, president, an
nounced the annual banquet of

address by Representative Will

Committee, will feature the affair.

COURT DECISIONS

Section 3, of the act of March
27, 1884, as amended. requires
contractors who are awarded con-
tracts to build naval vessels or
aircraft to pay into the Treasury
profit in excess of 10 per cent Of
the contract price. This section
further provides that if such
amount is not voluntarily paid it
may be collected under the In
ternal revenue laws in the same
manner as income taxes are gar
nered.
"A number of important court
decisions were handed down af-
fecting administration of the in
ternal revenue laws" the report
states. These decisions clari.
fled or interpreted questioned
provisions of the laws and have
enabled the bureau to dispose
of large number of pending
cases."
