A lawyer named Urlon, Quimby
said, retained by Orr, Muma and Mar-
tin was to designate lawyers in va

were to be shown in each state before
some) "veterans " organization.

HIGH DRY AIDE
INDICTED BOOZE
REMOVAL PLOT
ATTACK ON
INCOME TAK
State Law Called Capricious
By Lumber Firm Operating
in Idaho Filing of Federal
Tax Return Held Violation of
Immunity Granted Confiden
tial Matters.
SALEM, Ore., March 15 Attack on
the state Incomo tax passed at tho
list general election was launched in
circuit court here today by the Stand
ard Lumbor company In proceedings
asking for an Injunction against the
state tax commission inhibiting it
from enforcing the provisions of the
act against: the company and also
from enforcing any of tho commis
sion's rules and regulations promul
gated under the act.
The Btatute is attacked on numer
ous grounds. The company filing the
complaint is incorporated under the
laws of Oregon but operates its busi
ness all within the state of Idaho.
The complaint alleges that tho sys
tem of graduated rates called for un
der the act Is arbitrary and capricious
"and the fact that the taxable net In
come of one corporation Is larger than
that of another furnishes no reason
able basis for an Increased ration of
taxation in corporations having a larg
er net Income."
For this reason, the complaint de
clares, tho tax denies the plaintiff
equal protection of the laws.
The act, the complaint continues,
provides exemptions from taxation to
various individuals and corporations,
such exemptions , being granted to
banks, insurance companies, trust com
panies and companies handling real
estate Such exemptions also nre ar
bitrary and capricious, states the
complaint, and by reason of such ex
emptions, the act does not operate
uniformly.
Under other provisions, says the
complaint, a non-resident doing busi
ness within the state is subject to tax
ation under his net income derived
within the state and the definition of
such Income Includes the income re
ceived from dividends. Such provis
ion, discriminates without reasonable
basis and is capricious and arbitrary,
discriminating between corporations
having non resident stockholders and
thoso having no such non-resident
stockholders, in that corporations pay
ing dividends to non-residents may not
deduct the same from their taxable net
income. The plaintiff company says
it has a number of non-resident stock
holders to all of whom dividends were
paid In 1923. Such provision also dis
criminates without reasonable basis
says tho complaint, against resident
stockholders of corporations having
non resident stockholders and in favor
of residont stockholders in a corpora
tion not having non-resldont stock
holders.
The complaint further avers that the
act Imposes a tax upon tho entlro In
come of residont Individuals and cor
porations regardless of where and from
what Hource the Income Is derived. The
complaint contends that no part of the
incomo of the plaintiff is derived from
nronertv or business conducted with
in the state of Oregon and thus denies
to the plaintiff the equal protection Of
the laws in that it taxes p'roperty not
having a taxable situs within the state.
The formula of the act for determln
ing the taxable income of non-resident
corporations Is abrltrary, unreasonanie
and inexact, the complainants doclares
and assorts such provisions of the law
nr unconstitutional and void.
A clause in the act providing that a
taxpayer shall file with the state a
cony of his fedoral tax return also is
attacked In the complaint on the
ground that it deprives the plaintiff of
a valuable Immunity and property
right veatod in it to have its federal
tax returns confidential except when
examined pursuant to tho procedure
In the federal statutes.
