H. Harry Shelton
Estote Benefits Under
New Interpretation

10 v. Morgan the Districts one
man Board of Tax Appeals, yester-
day ruled the estate Of the late H
Harry Shelton entitled to a refund of
$2.225. In doing so he overruled one
Of his own estate tax regulations,
drawn up, he said, when he was
special assistant to the corporation
counsel in tax matters prior to ap-
pointment to his present post. The
ruling is expected to cause the Dis
trict some financial loss.
Mr.. Morgan said he hated to over
rule the regulation, but that study
Of the case convinced him his
present position is correct.
Under the setup prior to the
ruling, the District assessed an in
heritance tax and in addition an
estate tax of 80 per cent of the
Federal tax. This was based on the
fact that the Federal tax allows q
credit up to 80 per cent of the tax
for similar taxes paid in States
The effect of the previous rule was
Mr.. Morgan pointed out, that the
District assessed the full 80 per cent
credit which the Federal Govern
ment allowed.
The new ruling declares that the
estate tax imposed by the District
should equal the difference only be-
tween the District inheritance tax
and the 80 per cent credit allowed
by the Federal Government on its
tax. Thus. Mr.. Morgan pointed out
the sum of the District inheritance
tax and the estate tax would equal
the 80 per cent of the Federal tax
for which credit Is allowed.
If the District inheritance tax
should exceed the 80 per cent OF
the Federal tax, Mr.. Morgan added
however. the taxpayer is liable fol
the entire inheritance tax.

Boy and Deer.
BY Byron Herbert Reece

Over the white, the frozen ground
With cautious step the deer came
down
The boy, who had come to be
Alone with cloud and rock and
tree,
Alone with elemental things
That gave his timid spirit wings,
Suddenly saw the deer and hid
To see what that proud creature
did.
But the sharp swapping of a limb
Made the proud deer aware Of
him.
Kindred two, each watcher stood
With perfect stiffness in the
wood,
Each seeing each with mild sur
prise
And each with wonder in his
eyes.

with an equally sudden slump by
Murray Howell of the Baltimore
Orioles, placed Dickshot on top.
Howelrs Lead Is Brief.
Howell held the lead only two
weeks, dropping to third place after
Wednesdays games with a mark of
.348, one point less than Dusty Cooke
of the Rochester Redwings.
Strung out behind this trio were
Estel Crabtree, Rochester, $40;
Maurice Van Robays, Montreal, 1888;
Mickey Witek, Newark, 329; Arnold
