' As to the second contested feature of the new law, which relates to taxing "dividends" of insurance com panies in the east and also reams of protests from tne vlg insurance com panies of the east aud also reams of newspaper yitrol, Hull said: ' . "In drawing that part of the bill we used exactly the words prescrib ed in federal court decisions, to pre vent any test of the law in the courts. If you will examine the bill carefully you will note that we de clare s that .'dividends' of the insur ance companies are taxable. : We did not use the word, revenue, or in come,' or proceeds but the i wprd 'dividends.' This has been construed by the federal judiciary in the case of Knowlton versus Moore," to mean the actual profits of the companies, derived not from overcharges to policyholders upon their , premiums,, but oh their actual proceeds from in-, vestments," loans, real .estate rentals etc. ' The courts decided that the questions" of dividends is a question of fact and hot of law. They de clare that the facts must necessarily be .ascertained in each particular case."

If the fed-1 m-iri- policy holders, construing ' each , individual case . upon its merits, and contend ing that such payments are not in fact premium overcharges but reve nue from invested capital i. e. divi dendsthe collector can bring suit and cause actual ascertainment of the facta In the case by the federal courts."

J'! i Hull and the Democratic leaders ttake the position that the wealthy in surance companies should pay taxes upon their incomes derived from quick and big , profits upon "call money" loaned in the New York stock exchange and other Wall Street sources. They save' gigantic "reserves" built up by the compan ies, and withheld from policy hold ers, while fat salaries are paid the officials.,.,': ,i "Much of the broadsides of, criti cism of the new tax have come from sources which declare that they favor the bill," said Hull. ' "That is the worst kind of criticism from pretended friends." r. , eral authorities . deem that tne comes of the com'panres should elude certain payments to Fine We atne r DEMANDS Fine Clothes !
