Must Stand Trial
k in Tax Law Case
Fight Over Publication of In*
come Figures Looms in
Senate; Norris Will
Defend Measure.
Washington, Nov. 20.—The pub
licity clause of the Income tax law
promises to he the basis for a lively
fight at the next session of congress.
Coincident with the indictment to
day of the Baltimore Daily Post in
a test case by the Department of
Justice on the publication of income
tax lists, Senator Harrison, democrat,
Mississippi, issued a statement de
claring that, although he voted for
the publicity section, he was now
opposed to it. He asserted it was
harmful to business and to the gen
eral welfare and he would co-operate
with republicans to change the law.
This statement added new life to
N the smouldering discontent of a num
Jl her of senators who are displeased
' with the results of the publicity.
Chairman Smoot of the senate finance
committee, declared he would lead a
fight in the senate to shut oft nil
publicity to income tax returns and
that he did not believe under the
present law newspapers had the right
to publish Income tax returns. He
explained that lie fought the Inser
tion of the publicity clause in the tax
bill at the time it was presented.
Norris Keady to Fight.
On the other hand. Senator Norris,
republican, Nebraska, who drafted
the original publicity clause which
was adopted after amendment in con
ference, asserted that if any attempt
was made to strike out the clause, he
would, make an effort to shed still
more publicity on tax returns. He
declured that publicity "worked a
hardship only on the dishonest tax
payer,’’ and secrecy forced the hon
est taxpayer ly bear the brunt of the
burden.
As an alternative to repealing the
present publicity clause, the Ne
braska senator said he would press
his original amendment as a substi
tute to the publicity section. This
amendment, he explained, would lay
open to the public the complete tax
returns Instead of only the total tax
payments as the present law now
provides. Under the amendment, he
said, the public would be able to as
certain how the incomes were made
and Income tax returns would consti
tute public documents in every sense
k of the word.
" Borali I,' ndecided.
Senator Cummins, republican, Iowa,
who also voted for the clause, said
today that the tax publicity had not
operated as he had expected. He de
clared he had heard criticism from
unexpected quarters and that small
income taxpayers objected to having
their situations exposed.

Bombing Tests
on Hull Begin
Uncompleted Washington Tar
get for Navy Gunners Off
, Cape Charles.
By International Nrtti Service.
Norfolk, Vs., Nov. 20.—Bombing
experiments against the hull of the
unfinished super dreadnaught Wash
ington, began today at a point 50
miles east of Cape Chnrles under the
direction of Rear Admiral Hughes
and gunnery experts of the Navy de
partment.
If. at the end of the experiments,
In which .scores of bombs from the
air and great depth charges will tfst
the armor plates of the giant war
ship, it Is still afloat, the 14-lnch
guns of the battleship Texas will
send It to the bottom In 50 fantoms of
water. It may be Saturday before
the huge vessel makes Its final
plunge. '
The Washington is the last of the
capital type ships to be scrapped or
sunk under the arms agreement.
Known officially as the “BB-47"
the Washington, which left the Phila
delphia navy yard last Saturday in
tow of five powerful tugs, was due
at the southern drill grounds Mon
day. But the gale which began
Sunday kept it inside the Delaware
breakwater, and it was not until late
yesterday that the hull, on which
the government already has spent
$35,000,000 reached the scene of Its
destruction.
A belief exists in some quarters
that the Washington will withstand
the bomb and gun attacks and be
towed back to the navy yard and
scrapped with the torch. The super
construction and powerful armor of
the huge hull, It is contended, will
be more than a match for the as
saults launched upon It.

It seemed probable today that the

feverishly active here since Ibanez
announced In Paris yesterday that he
was ready to promise distribution of
2,000,000 copies of the book, which he
said would reveal King Alphonso as
"a traitor to the allies during the
war; responsible for the debacle In
Morocco, an associate of gambling
house keepers and a shadow on the
fair name of Spain." He said aiphonso
was a true nephew of the man who
betrayed Napoleon.
