suit"
Won't Test Constitutionality
In announcing the suit, Miss
Kellems said:
Unfortunately this suit will
not test the constitutionality of
the withholding tax law, But it
will decide one very important
and fundamental question-can a
private citizen, who has never
been appointed a tax collector, be
penalized for not collecting taxes
that have been paid and made to
pay those taxes twice?
1.-THE Government admits that
all withholding taxes have been
paid directly by the individual
employees: there are no taxes due
nor do they claim interest, since
these taxes were paid on time.
But with no charge having been
made against us, no trial held,
and no judgment rendered, we
have been fined $7,819.20 simply.
because the Government insists
that we collect and pay the taxes
rather than to permit our en-
ployes to pay their own taxes
themselves
Joining her in the suit are her
brother, David L. Kellems, and the
Kellems c.. The action is directed
against the Government and John
J. Fitzpatrick, Federal collector of
internal revenue in Connecticut.

a bang out of cracking wise with
his close friend and physician DR..
John Stewart, and the few other
friends who are allowed to see
him.
A spokesman at his home. how
ever, said today his condition has
been unchanged during the last
month and there are no grounds
yet for any optimism.
Earlier, his physician had been
quoted as saying he was confident

Republicans Planning
Box Supper al U|ine's
To WooAverage Voter

The Republicans will use a
chicken box supper in Uline Arena
to keynote their contention that
the Democrats have no monopoly
on the claim to being the party OF
the average man.
This informal feast will be held
February 6 In place of the usual
swanky and expensive Lincoln Day
observance. One dollar, plus tax.
will be the admission charge, and
there will be a two-minute limit
on speeches. The chicken box
will cost another 81. but those at
tending may bring their own sup
per If they wish.
The Republican affair will be IN
sharp contrast to that OF the
democrats, who will begin their
Embarrassing for the 1850 election
campaigns with a $100-a-plate
dinner December 2 in the Waldorf
Astoria Hotel in New York.
Republicans from all sections
jof the Nation are planning to
attend the Lincoln Day observ-
ance here, according to a joint
announcement by Mrs. Carroll d,
Kearns, president of the League
of Republican Women OF the Dis
trict, and Mrs. A. Burks sum
mers, general chairman OF the
supper.
One Senator already has or
dered 500 tickets; House mem
Der has reserved 200 and Repub-
|licans in six Western States Will
Join in sending trainload OF
celebrants, it was stated.
National Republican Chairman
Guy Gabrielson appealed to party
members throughout the Nation
to make the Uline Arena event a
demonstration of party spirit"
for the 1850 contests.
He said there will be master
of ceremonies, music and other
entertainment by well-knoWn per-
sonalities of show business, floats,
square dancing and torchlight
parades. :.
1t has been estimated $4,000
persons could be accommodated
in the arena.
Mr.. Gabrielson said the League
of Republican Women deserved
full credit for instituting "tnis
new form of Lincoln birthday
celebration"
It represents an answer to the
pleas of many Republicans that
leaders do something to give the
party greater appeal to "the
average man" by discarding any
hint of the stuffed shirt" in its
gatherings.
The Republican Senatorial
Committee, Republican Congress
sional Committee and Republican
State Committee of the District
are cooperating in planning the
supper.
