Un Downed but not downhearted, the Marshall housewives are going to take their tax fight to Congress, They never did want to collect social security taxes on the wages of their household servants and they never did. Now the U. S. Supreme Court, in a decision yesterday, said they had to do il. Two lower courts nat. laid they had to do It, and the Supreme Court relused to hear their appeal. The women said the tax wasn't constitutional. And through all the rebellion that started almost three years ago they have waited in their homes while internal revenue agents went into downtown banks to take the taxes due Irom tneir bank accounts. "Where else can we go now?' asked Mrs. Carolyn M. Abtiey, spokesman for the group ot 14 housewives and In whose name the suit was filed. "We have no further recourse in the courts. "But the American people have a recourse by protesting to Con gress who wrote Ihcse tilings. Alt er all, we elected those congressmen." Mrs. Abncy said she and the other rebelling housewives had re ceived. "thousands of letters" of support in the 2!i years of their fight. She asked these people to write their Congressmen now to get the law changed. We haven't done anytning sel fish," Mrs. Abney said. "We don't want lobs: we're housewives. We leel the home Is the bulwark of our system. When socialism came marching into our kitchen, It was time for us to do something. "It's not that $12.57 it's a mat ter of principle Involved, not prop erty. And that principle is personal liberty and Individual ireeaom. Mrs. Abnev filed suit to recover $12.57 taken from her bank account one quarter for the social security payments on her servant. She said the government naa taaen lony odd dollars from her in all. Federal officials said that in mld-1951 a total of 511,288 Ameri can housewives had filed the spe cial tax returns and that by Feb ruary, 1952, the total bad jumped to more than 700,000.
