three days.
Born on farm in Northumber-
land County, Va, he did chores
until he was old enough to become
a farm hand. While there he
learned to be cobbler. an occupa
ton which supported him for many
years after his liberation.
At the Baptist Home it was esti-
mated he had been a Washington

the Zion Baptist Church. Twenty
six years ago this church provided
him life residency in the Baptist
home
At the home he repaired shoes and
performed general handy work.

dents from Howard University.

his early Virginia farm days and
told of having given a general a
drink of water from gourd during
one of the Civil War battles in lower

Nathaniel ShiIkret Loses
Suit for Refund Of Taxes

Nathaniel Shilkret. we'll known
musician, composer and director. to-
day lost his fight to save more thar
SIG 900 in Federal income taxes as
result of Court of Appeals de-
cision.
Questions involved included
whether Mr.. Shilkret was domicilec
in California instead of New York
during the tax years 1861 anc
whether he could apply the so-callec
California property laws. during
those two tax years to income de-
rived from his services while To-
Gated there.
The Court of Appeals affirmed
a decision of the Board Of Tax Ap-
peals, now the Tax Court of thc
United States. and held that Mr.
ShillSret actually was domiciled ir
New York. and was not entitled
to apply the community property
laws of California.
At the same time the court also
upheld the Boards ruling that Mr.
Shilkrets wife was entitled to q
refund to the extent that she hao
included as taxable to herself one
half of her husbands net income
from salary derived from R-K-O ir
the years in question
I These refunds, records were saic
to show, will amount to something
over $4,000.

Legal Expert Attacks
Right Of Congress
To End Poll Taxes

Charles Warren. 75-year- old at
torney, writer and lecturer on con-
stitutional law, challenged today the
right of Congress to outlaw poll tax
requirements of eight Southern
States
Asserting he considered require
ment OF such tax as prerequisite
for voting unjust Mr.. Warren as
serted it should be abolished" by
the sovereignty that created it, -
not by Congress.
For many years a Washington
lawyer and a one time Assistant At
torneT General, Mr. Warren testi-
fed before the Senate Judiciary
Committee, which is considering a
House, e-approved bill to prohibit col
lection Of such levies as a require
ment for voting for Federal officials.
Mr.. Warren said that as a youth
in Boston he worked for the aboli-
ton of the MasSa chuSetts poll tax
and later served as private secretary
to former Gov William E. Russell,
whom he credited with engineering
its repeal
AT that time he asserted. no
one in authority intimated Congress
had the authority to abolish it."
While the right to vote for Fed
eral officials is a Federal right, he
testified. the Constitution leaves it
up to the States to fix qualifications
of voters.
National citizenship in itself does
not confer the right to vote" he
argued. Women were citizens prior
to 1920, but they were not given the
right to vote until the Constitution

Black Market in SIum Housino
Operating Here, Group Charges

The Washington Housing Associa-
ton charged today that a BLACK
market in slum housing" is operating
in the District and that unlicensed
real estate brokers are collecting rent
twice the amount the owners of
property receive.
Pulling no punches, the association
declared:
"A black market in slum housing
would not exist if there were an ade-
quate supply of low-rent housing to
meet the need. Slum landlords would
not make such high profits at the
expense of the health and welfare
of the community, if proper recog-
milton were given the problem and
action taken.
Even before 1889 there were not
enough dwellings to meet the need
here, and after the war began the
Government was slow in starting to
build war housing, the association
said.
1T required almost a year for
Congress to pass the necessary ap-
plOpTldIlOIlS anu dIlOJnef wear
passed before sites were acquired
and developed, utilities were in
stalled and dwellings constructed
the workers came faster than hous-
ing was made ready"
Law Declared Invalid.
The association claimed that in
the last l6 years the law for con-
demnation Of insanitary buildings
was invalid and that as result
there are several thousand slum
dwellings which would otherwise
have been demolished. These are
now occupied to a degree of over
croWding that is health menace >
the organization charged.
Cited as typical of the Exploiting
Slum operator was the following

Pu*: Square|y Up 10
King by Badog|io
BY the Associated Press.


SOMEWHERE IN ITALY, Nov
2.-King Victor Emmanuel, Italy S
monarch for 43 years-2l of them
under Fascism-was faced squarely
today with the question of whether
he ought to abdicate so his war
ravaged nation could form a repre-
sentative government.
The issue was put to the King
yesterday by Premier Pietro Ba-
doglio, who returning from a con-
ference with political leaders in
Naples, told him he could never
form such a government while the
King retained his throne.
Count Carlo Sforza. pre-Fascist
Foreign Minister, is said to have
told Badoslio he would never ioin
the government while the King re-
malned in power In this he is re-
ported to have the backing of Bene-
.detto Croce. noted philosopher. and
Ithe National Liberation Front
which includes Italy's six political
parties.
Sforza and Croce have let it be
known, however, that they would
not oppose a regency under the
6-year-old Prince of Naples. son of
Crown Prince Umberto. The Ma
.tional Liberation Front is said to
prefer republic.
Badoglio, who said in Naples a
lew days ago that he intends 10
form coalition government which
would include all sections of polit
lcal opinion, including Communism
went to see the King yesterday as
soon as he stepped from an Amer
lean transport plane which brought
him from Naples.
Inc King is living with the Queen
ana Prince Umberto in a villa close
to Badoglio's headquarters.
