STATE ACCEPTS - DENHARDT JURY Defense, However, Asks Re- cess, Then Challenges Eight. BACKGROUND— Mrs. Verna Garr Taylor, comely widow and fiancee of Brig. Gen. Henry H. Denhardt, military and political figure in Kentucky, was found slain in ditch along lonely road on night of November 6, last. Near the body was the general's dervice revolver. After long investi- @ation Denhardt was arrested and charged with the slaying. By the Assoclated Press. NEW CASTLE, Ky, April 22.— The Commonwealth today accepted a jury to try Brig. Gen. Henry H. Denhardt for murder and the de- fense requested a recess to determine whether it would accept the 12 men. The defense later challenged 8 of the 12 men whom the Commonwealth had accepted, necessitating calling of additional veniremen. Earlier an almost endless procession of sun-tanned, tobacco-chewing farm< ers paraded in and out of the jury box as examination of prospective jurors for the trial of Denhardt, charged with the murder of Verna Garr Tay- lor, 40 and widowed, continued. Neatly dressed “store-bought clothes™ mixed with sod-covered overalls as the men, many ill at ease, gathered in little groups in the corridors and waited to be summoned to the court room. Judge Is Irritated. Defense and Commonwealth closely questioned prospective jurors. Fre- quently Circuit Judge Charles C. Marshall became irritated at the slow- ness of the proceedings and would pick up a question asked by counsel and, rephrasing it in blunt, plain speech, bark it back at the more-than- often-bewildered veniremen. Gen. Denhardt arrived early, sur- rounded by his legal staff. The general, whose $25,000 bond was continued yes- terday with Dr. A. T. McCormack, head of the State Department of Health, as surety, laughed and joked with counsel and occasionally reached | over the railing to shake hands with | a well-wisher ‘With the trial under way the crowds. which so far have been small, picked up and the bleak court room was packed when Judge Marshall (‘all(‘d‘ the court to order. J. B. Hundley, defense witness in the case, is ill in Pleasureville, Ky. | Although confined to his bed, Hundley was reported by his physician to be improved today and can appear at the trial when n. cessary. Continuance Denied. Selection of a jury began after Judge Marshall denied Denhardt's ap- plication for a continuance. It was the second setback for the defense, which Tuesday lost a petition for a change of venue. The general is accused of shooting fatally Mrs. Taylor during an all-day | outing. The defense contends Mrs. Taylor took her own life because of opposition by her family to her pro- posed marriage to Denhardt. ENVOY SAYS GOOD-BY Dr. Luther, Retiring German Dip- lomat, Pays Respects. Dr. Hans Luther, who is retiring shortly as German Ambessador, called at the White House today for a fare- well chat with President Roosevelt. On leaving, Dr. Luther said he doesn't expect to start for Germany | until the middle of May, but thought it best to say good-by to the President at this time because Mr. Roosevelt will | be leaving Washington next week fora | fishing vacation. | Ambassador Luther expects to enjoy a restful life on his farm in Bavaria. JONES SHOW OPENS Capitol Tall Cedars of Lebanon, to Be Sponsors. The Johnny J. Jones exposition opened a 9-day show at Eighteenth and H streets northeast today under sponsorship of the Capitol Forest Tall Cedars of Lebanon. The opening was postponed yesterday on account of rain and wet grounds. The exposition is composed of 25| shows and 20 thrill rides. Circus acts and open-air band concerts are being. presented daily.

Government. exemptions provided. (This is the second of two articles on the estate tazx.) l States, it could raise a substantial revenue out of an estate tax and could recapture some death taxes al- ready paid to the Federal Government, without adding any additional bur- den on the local estates. These two objectives could be ac- complished by amending the pending estate tax bill in two particulars: First, change it to provide, as sev- eral other States have provided, that the State shall take only the 80 per cent credit allowed by the Federal Government out of the 1926 Federal estate tax base—and no more. Second, add to the bill a provision to recapture, wherever possible, the 80 per cent from taxes already paid in. This feature is now missing from the pending measure. The House bill, as it now stands, has an elaborate rate structure, which generally would take more than the 80 per cent provision adopted by many States. This rate structure would dig down deeper into the little estates than the Federal Government itself. How some of the States have lim- ited their collections to the 80 per cent provision is clearly shown in several examples, any one of which could well be followed by the District of Columbia. For instance, Alabama provides that the total Alabama estate tax is not to exceed in the aggregate the Fed- eral credit. In comparatively simple language, making administration rea- sonably easy, the State of Alabama says: “‘There is hereby levied and imposed upon the net estate passing by will, devise or under the estate laws of the State of Alabama, a tax of 80 per centum of the tax imposed upon such net estates by the act of Con- gress approved February 3, 1926. The rates and the definitions of ‘net es- tates’ shall be as provided in said act of Congress.” Of course the Federal Government since the act of 1926 has levied a super-estate tax, upon which it allows no 80 per cent credit, at all. This super tax is getting more from estates than the 1926 estate tax base. But | several States are still sticking to the 80 per cent as a basis for their own estate taxes. Another which says: “Should the amount of tax in this act, increased by this section, be afterward found to be more than the maximum credit allowed under the Federal estate tax act, then any ex- cess over and above the said maxi- mum credit shall be refunded, as is | provided in section 11 of this act.” | The State of Michigan long ago | went so far as to provide that no more than the 80 per cent shall be collected from estates and refunds are to be made out of the “primary school funds.” This unusual provi- sion reads, in part, as follows: “Upon the final Federal determina- tion of 80 per centum of the Federal estate tax, the State treasurer and auditor general shall refund and pay back to the executor, administrator or trustee of such estate or other person interested thereunder out of | the primary school fund all moneys theretofore paid to the appropriate county treasurer under this act in| excess of 80 per centum which shall have been paid pursuant to said pro- vision requiring the payment of an | amount equal to the difference be- tween the total of such taxes herein- before imposed, plus all other credits | allowed by the Federal act for taxes paid the State governments, and 80 per centum of the tax, which may be imposed by said Federal revenue act, and mandamus shall be available to such executor, administrator, trustee and other person to compel such re- fund and repayment.” With typical New England brevity, the State of New Hampshire says: “Provided that such estate tax hereby imposed shall in no case ex- ceed the extent to which its payment will effect a saving or diminution in the amount of the United States estate tax payable by or out of the estate of the decedent had this act not been enacted.” The District of Columbia over a period of years has been turning into the Federal coffers a substantial amount of estate tax without getting any credit to the municipality. All States, with the single exception of Nevada, take advantage of the oppor- tunity to get this 80 per cent credit, and it would seem not only logical, but just that the District should get what would be coming to it under such a provision. Not only could the new estate tax bill go into the future to collect the 80 per cent credit, to its own advan- tage, but it eould, under present Fed- eral law, and practice, reach into the past, to recapture some of the death taxes, which already have been paid in to the Federal Government. This could be accomplished by a retroactive clause, now missing. Such a provision could take thousands of | dollars out of the Federal 'Prensury.; F THE District of Columbia would follow the example of several example is California, SPECIAL NOTICES NEW FOLDING CHAIRS FOR RENT.

PURPOSE—To recover to District part of death taxes now paid Federal AFFECTS—AIl estates in District of $1,000 or more, with variety of as other States have done, and place it to the credit of the District of Columbia. The Bureau of Internal Revenue s on record as saying that “There has been no disposition on the part of the Government to question the validity of the exaction of the State.” How have these States accomplished their purpose to get back from the Federal Government, money already paid out? The State of Indiana is & good ex- ample. ‘It was the Hoosier State, as & matter of fact, which drew from the Bureau of Internal Revenue, &n officiul statement, virtually approving the principle of the retroactive clause. Indiana had provided with other things that its new estate tax should “apply to estates of decedents dymg on or after the effective date of the | Federal revenue act of 1926.” The new District of Columbia bill does have a general provision provid- ing that the tax of 80 per cent shall “be levied and assessed upon transfers of estates which would be liable to the Federal tax as assessed before de- ducting the 80 per centum provided,” —but there is no specific recapture provision. Of course the statute of limitations now might run against any recapture clause in the District bill which at- tempted to reach back as far as 1926, when the 80 per cent provision beeame effective. No provision now could go back that far. But the general princi- pal of the statute of limitations would allow the District of Columbia to reach back as far as four years. In other words, the District would bhave to file claim for refund from the Fed- | eral Government within four years of the actual date of the filing of the Fed- eral estate tax return ‘The validity of such procedure, has been upheld by officials of the Bureau of Internal Revenue, and careful check today failed to find anything which so far has invalidated it. The recapture approval was given by H. F. Mires, who then was acting commissioner of Internal Revenue. He wrote in answer to a query con- cerning the Indiana recapture clause: The Indiana statute, section 38 of chapter 75, laws of 1931 provided that “additional inheritance tax is imposed upon all the estates subject to an estate tax under provisions of the United States revenue act of 1926 equal to the difference between the total of afl transfer and inheritance taxes paid by the several States of the United States, and 80 per centum of the Federal tax. “The provisions of this section,” said Mires, “apply to estates of de- cedents dying on or after the effective date of the revenue act of 1926, It is provided that if the United States Government should refuse to | allow a credit or should collect the amount of the credit previously allowed by for the additional inherit- | ance tax, then the treasurer of the State shall refund the amount for which credit was disallowed by the Federal Government. It is also pro- vided that if Title IIT of the Federal revenue act should be repealed then the tax imposed by section 38 shall become void in respect to the estates of persons who die subsequent to the effective dates of such repeal. “Apparently the additional tax im- | posed will be collected by the State of Indiana,” said Mires, ‘“regardless of whether the administration of the estate is closed, and regardless of the fact that its tax liability both under the Federal estate tax law, and the transfer tax law of Indiana, in effect at the date of the decedent's death have been- entirely settled. “Your letter refers to the fact that other States have enacted statutes to absorb the 80 per centum credit in making the statutes retroactive. In all cases mentioned, the Government [ has allowed the credit. “The statute of Maine was applic- ! able only to estates still in process of settlement. Consequently, the policy of the government, with respect to HATS * CLEANED BLOCKED.AND TRIMMED BacaracH Millinery and Hat Blockers 733 11th St. N.W.

However, it has been the policy of the Government, to allow credit for all taxes exacted by the States up to 80 per centum of the Federal tax. There has been no disposition on the part of the Gov- ernment to question the validity of the exaction of the State. This will most likely be the policy of the bureau with respect to any payments made to the State of Indiana, under the statute referred to above.” At the time of Mires’ letter explain- ing the retroactive provision, the stat- ute of limitations ran to a period of three years, under the 1926 revenue act. But later on this period was changed to four years, so that now, the District wonld be able to recap- ture on estates up to four years after the date of filing of the original return.

The tax schedule should be deter~ pmined by the committee “after care- fully considering the amount of money which must be raised.” Ninth Tax Bill Offered. Chairman Collins of the House Sub- committee on District Appropriations | introduced late yesterday the ninth and final tax bill in his series. It was promptly referred to the tax sub- committee. All nine bills are de- signed to raise sufficient revenue in | the coming fiscal year to prevent the | anticipated $6,000,000 deficit. The latest tax bill would revise and make uniform the tax on utility cor- porations. A tax on real and tangible personal property of the utility cor- i porations at a rate equal to that levied on other real and tangible personal property is proposed as a substitute for the existing diversified tax on real and ings. The present tax on real and tangible personal property is $1.50 of $100 of assessed valuation. No tax is proposed on intangible personal property, since its abolition is provided in Collins' bill for an in- come tax. The bill, however, does provide for continuation of the tax on realty holdings used by the utility | corporations by ‘“whomsoever owned.” Capt. Whitehurst, the first witness, | outlined the ever increasing activities | of the Highway Department supported | by gasoline tax revenues. He pointed |out the fund in the beginning was | used exclusively for construction work, | but since then there had been a | “gradual transition” of the gas tax | until now 95 per cent of the activi- ties of his department are financed with these revenues. In response to “questions by Dirk- sen, Whitehurst said the support of trees and certain activities of the Department of Vehicles and Traffic out of gas tax cannot prop.rly be classified as a diversion of those funds. | He declared, however, the payment of | salaries of traffic officers would not }be a proper charge against the gas | tax fund. Dirksen expressed the opinion it would be an “excellent idea” to pool all revenues from motorists' gasoline taxes, personal property tax on ve- | hicles, tax and permit fees as well as fines for traffic violations—to support the Highway Department, and other- wise expended in the interest of the | motorist. Whitehurst had previously brought | out that $328836 collected in raffic | fines in 1936, and $671.951 in tag and permit fees had gone into the District's general revenue, Dirksen next inquired if there is any reason why the motor vehicle and | gasoline tax should not be raised. | Commissioner Melvin C. Hazen in- | terrupted to explain that the Com- missioners are preparing a bill for that purpose, but that the weight tax scale would be lower than that pro- | posed in one of the Collins tax bills, which he believed to be too hign. | Whitehurst also expiained that | | commercial vehicles would be grouped | in the bill of the Commissioners be- | cause it would be an “endless task” | to figure the tax on the actual weight | | of individual trucks. | Conditions confronting the High- | way Department because of the lack | of adequate funds were then stressed ;b,v Whitehurst. He said there are a number of main thoroughfares which —_— THE NewesT THING IN OiL HEAT BEFORE You Buy SEE THE NEwW SHERWOOD ic Thenm OIL BURNER do not have a permanent improved surface, and his department now has pending requests for more than 8500, 000 worth of curb and gutter work. “We are faced with a serious prob- lem,” he declared. Parking Discussed. ‘The automobile parking situation was next discussed, and Traffic Direc- tor Willlam A. Van Duzer questioned about the use of parking meters as a means of raising additionsl revenue. He replied that automobile clubs, merchants and motorists in cities where parking meters have been adopt- ed have approved them. Van Duzer also pointed out there is curb space in the three zones in the congested area for parking €,000 private automobiles. It was estimated that the use of meters in the area would yield about $2,000 a day at a rate of 5 cents an hour for 6!, hours. “Parking meters are coming,” warned Representative Nichols, Democrat, of Oklahoma, “and this city might as well get ready for them.” Mrs. Mason Questioned. Mrs. Agnes Mason, acting chairman of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board, next was questioned about the activities of that board. S8he said be- tween February, 1934, and April 1, 1937, the board had collected $2,675,907 in license fees and $3,199,158 in taxes on liquor. Asked whether any changes should be made, Mrs. Mason sald she did not believe the tax on liquor should be raised, but the license fees should be increased, especially those for hotels having 100 or more rooms. She sug- gested a $2,000 annual license fee for hotels. Representative Nichols asked if she thought the limitation on the num- ber of liquor establishments should be removed. If that is done, she pre- dicted, prohibition would be returned to the District, because there is pro- nounced sentiment now against the number of establishments already licensed. Mrs. Mason also explained why the board suspended licenses of dealers who falled to pay bills to wholesalers in & ‘“reasonable” perfod. Keech Offers Statement. Late in the hearing, the subcom- mittee turned to a study of taxes paid by utility corporations, and Richmond B. Keech, vice president of the Public Utilities Commission submitted a state- ment showing the payment in the 1936 fiscal year totaled $2,052,779. Keech was asked to suggest what new taxes should be imposed on the utility corporations. He replied that until the utilities commission knew what part of the additional tax burden the companies would have to bear, he would not be in a position to recom- mend any changes. He pointed out that additional taxes on the corporations eventually would be passed along to consumers. Nichols requested the commission to submit statistical information to the subcommittee showing whether an investigation of telephone rates is war- ranted at this time. Keech pointed out the rider attached to the 1938 District appropriation bill authorizing the commission to investi- gate telephone rates is insignificant since the commission already has the authority to make the inquiry. The hearing will be resumed Tues- day at 10 am. At that time the sub- committee will continue its examina- tion of members of the Public Utilities Commission and probably discuss | proposals for increasing the gasoline f tax and taxing insurance compan — W.C. & A.N.
