The Iluasteca is now the biggest

the Doheny organization exported
3,209.095 barrels of oil out of total
exports of 10,233,607 barrels.
February totals showed a decline
over previous months, as production
is falling off in both the north and
south fields. It was expected that the?.

the adoption of a law requiring the

The National Railways of Mexico,

the Federal Zone, near Mendez, on
the Tampico-San Luis Potosi rail
way. This oil is of 17 gravity and is
too rich in gasoline content to be
use! as locomotive fuel. Hence the

buy cheaper fuel for their own use.
The fae-t that the National Dines
have undertaken a drilling program

why the government desires a new

C7AT"5Tf! HA HP
State Files Motion for
Rehearing;
In Case Lost By It in the
Supreme Court.
. The state Monday morning fild a
motion in the Supreme court for a
rehearing of the 1
car-p, filed by the
ink taxation test
Central National
and Continental State banks of Lin
coln and the Lincoln Trust company,
against the county of Lancaster.
The case was instituted as a test
of the constitutionality of the old
law providing for the taxation of
the e;apiUil stoak anil surplus o
hanks. It was contencleel oy the
banks that this law had been de
clared unconstitutional., and v.
void. It was also an attempt on the
part of the banks to get In under
the v.ing of the intangible tax law
providing for an assessment on the
23 per cent rate.
The supreme court held in favor
of the banks, declaring that the act
had been declared unconstitutional
following Federal court decision,
known as the "Richmond d e ision"
ami that if banks were to be taxed
under its provisions the legislature
must reenact it. The banks have
been assessed under its provisions
for the past two years but the banks-
have hehl up a portion of the taxes
during the controversy.
A bill was introduced in the leg
islature providing for the recnact-
ment of Hie law but it has hei n
superseded by a new intangible tax
lav which is now in th.e hands of a
conference committee of the two
houses providing that the hanks shall
be assessed at a rate seventy pe r cent
of the assessed valuation of the
tangible property.
The state in its motion contends
that the validity of a st-te statute
under the state consitution can only
be testeel by reference to the consti
tution. Unless some violation of the
constitution can be pointed out the
act must be deemed constitutional.
This is not true of this law, the
motion sets out.
The act may have been inopera
tive after the Richmond decision,
which pronounced a discrimination
and declared it illegal, but follow
ing the act of congress allowing the
national banks to be taxed tinder the
same system as the state banks in the
states where they are located, the
state contends that the law was no
longer a violation and again became
operative.
