internal revenue bureau is expected
soon to decide whether individual
members of co-operative market in*
associations must pay income taxes
on dividends which they receive from
such organizations. Such incomes
heretofore had been exempt, but at

have met with protest and a reques*
for final decision by tho bereau waj
made yesterday by John Tromble,
president, ajid C. E. Brasted,
tar.v, of the Farmers Union of Kans-
While no official statement wai
forthcoming from the office of Com
missioner Blair, there were indica
tions that exemption would be made
a permanent part of the internal
revenue regulations. The stand
taken by union officials was that
require lax returns or. such forms
of income would mean double tax-
atio inasmuch, they said, as the co
operative association’s income as «
Criticism had been directed at Har
vey Motter, collector of internal reve
nue of the district of Kansas, who,
the farmers' union officials claimed
had attempted to enforce payment
of taxes on incomes which members
received from their co-operative as
sociation connections. This criticism
however, wns declared by Senators
Curtis and Capper of Kansas, who
iccompanied the union officials lo
he treasury, to have been misdirect
'd because the Treasury Department
iad acted through a special agent.
Officials of the bureau wer esaid
last night to be going over the entire
cord in the case which included
xes from 1917 to 1920, inclusive,
s soon as that is done, it was indi
ted, a ruling would be forthcom'ng.
Mr. Brasted said the decision would
affect probably five hundred coopera-
associations in his state alone,
but he had no estimate as to the
nt of money involved.

at the polls Monday rejected the com

en. Tho majority against the com-j om> of tho
mission government bill was 284, and
against the school board bill, 317. Near
ly 2.100 votes were polled, the heavl
est number ever cast in a local elec
tion here. The campaign was marked
by Intense partisan rancor which
largely obscured the merits or demerits
of the proposed measures. Only a
weeks before hand, at a white primary,
three candidates for city councllmen,
or commissioners of the bill had been
ratified, were nominated and each of
the three winners was an outspoken
advocate of the commission plan.
Despite the vote against the meas
ures. they will both go Into effect tern

each bill, as It was passed by the Leg
islature. each becomes automatically
ratified unless a majority of the quali
fied voters opposed It. There were
more than 2.700 qualified voters on the
lists and neither received a majority
of this number against It. Both bills
will be repealed at the next session of
the Legislature, according to Repre
