Pension Checks Ruled
Exempt From D. c. Tex

Acting on an appeal filed by A. A.
Callahan, 80 S street NV, re-
tired employe of the Washington
Terminal Co., 10 V. Morgan OF the
Districts Board of Tax Appeals
ruled yesterday that the District
may not tax pension checks of the
Railroad Retirement Board.
In ordering a refund of an in
come tax of s752 paid under pro-
test by Mr.. Callahan, Mr.. Morgan
cited an act of Congress of June
"a, 1887, setting up the Railroad
Retirement Board, wherein he said
it was stated specifically that no
ann1ities or pension payments
should be subject to assignment or
to any tax or garnishment.
District officials had contended
that since Congress. in passing the
Districts income tax laws, had not
specifically exempted the Railroad
Retirement Board cheeks, such pay
ments could be taxed.

how short, by a composer Of the
same nationality as the players, or,
better still, the opening Of the pro-
gram with the national anthem, as
was done by the conductors this
summer at the Water Gate and by
Toscanini on his last appearance
here. The widely advertised Ameri-
can character of this particular
group of musicians should certainly
warrant a reverent performance of
THE Star Spangled Banner" at the
beginning of their programs.
The Shostakovich symphony, on
the whole, is a barren work, al
though there are moments of lyric
beauty in it of strange and haunting
quality. 1t calls for a refined mu-
sical understanding, and this the
young musicians gave it, as we'll as
full freedom of sound. the very rich
ness of which stirred the audience to
enthusiastic acclaim. AS the un-
diminished ardor of the applause
continued, Mr.. Stokowski returned
to make short speech thanking the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt, Sec
retary Hull and Aubrey Williams for
their support of his venture. He
then offered to play Novacek's Per
petuum Mobile" arranged for Or
chestra, as encore.
The seating of the orchestra was
the same as was tried out by Mr.. Sto-
kowski at his last appearance here
during the Philadelphia Orchestra
series last winter. In addition, a
species of resounding background
was used which amplified the tone.
From the rear of the hall, the effect
was rich. but from near the center
the preponderance of the voices Of
the double basses and cellos was too
great. while the violin tones were
rather faint in their position in the
middle of the group and back of the
woodwinds. This new blending of
the orchestral volume devised by Mr..
Stokowski gives greater depth and
power to the whole, but nullif1es the
pure floating quality which the vio-
Inns give when placed In front and
nearer the audience.
