<content class="inline">For the purpose of this Act (but not in any wise limiting the foregoing definition) a transaction in respect to any article shall be considered to be in commerce if such article is part of that current of commerce usual in the live-stock and meat-packing industries, whereby live stock, meats, meat food products, live-stock products, dairy products, poultry, poultry products, or eggs, are sent from one State with the expectation that they will end their transit, after purchase, in another, including, in addition to cases within the above general description, all cases where purchase or sale is either for shipment to another State, or for slaughter of live stock within the State and the shipment outside the State of the products resulting from such slaughter. Articles normally in such current of commerce shall not be considered out of such current through resort being had to any means or device intended to remove transactions in respect thereto from the provisions of this Act.

<p class="inline">That, annually, from and after July 1, 1922, 60 per centum of such expenses of the District of Columbia as Congress may appropriate for shall be paid out of the revenues of the District of Columbia derived from taxation and privileges, and the remaining 40 per centum by the United States, excepting such items of expense as Congress may direct shall be paid<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Tax levied on full value of real and personal property for fiscal years 1923–1927.</p></sidenote> on another basis; and that in order that the District of Columbia may be able annually to comply with the provisions hereof, and also in order that the said District may be put upon a cash basis as to payment of expenses, there hereby is levied for each of the fiscal years ending June 30, 1923, 1924, 1925, 1926, and 1927, a tax at such rate on the full value, and no less, of all real estate and tangible personal property subject to taxation in the District of Columbia as will, when added to the revenues derived from privileges and from the tax on franchises, corporations, and public utilities, as fixed by law, and<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Intangible personal property tax.</p></sidenote> also from the tax, which hereby is levied, on such intangible personal property as is subject to taxation in the District of Columbia, at the rate of five-tenths of 1 per centum on the full market value thereof, produce money enough to pay such annual expenses as may be imposed on the District of Columbia by Congress, and in addition to<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Surplus fund.</p></sidenote> such annual expenses a surplus fund sufficient to enable the District of Columbia to get upon a cash-paying basis by the end of the fiscal<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Payable semiannually.</p></sidenote> year 1927;

and if either said installment of such tax shall not be paid within thirty days of the date it is due and payable, said installment shall<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Penalty for failure.</p></sidenote> thereupon be in arrears and delinquent;

and that the Commissioners<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Commissioners to fix rates annually.</p></sidenote> of the District of Columbia hereby are empowered and directed to ascertain, determine and fix annually such rate of taxation as will, when applied as aforesaid, produce the money needed to defray the share of the expenses of the District during the year for which the rate is fixed;

and that if, for any fiscal year after June 30, 1927, the District of Columbia should raise and deposit in the Treasury to its credit, as<page identifier="/us/stat/42/670">670</page> herein provided, more money derived from taxation, privileges, and other sources authorized herein than may be necessary for the purposes<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Use of excess revenue for fiscal years after June 30, 1927.</p></sidenote> herein set out, such excess shall be available the succeeding year, in the discretion of the commissioners, either for the purpose of meeting the expense chargeable to the District of Columbia and/or for the further purpose of enabling the commissioners to fix a lower rate of taxation for the year following the one in which said excess<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Collection, etc., of revenues due the United States.</p></sidenote> accrued than they might otherwise be able to do; and that after June 30, 1922, the agencies through which the District of Columbia collects its revenues derived from taxation shall also collect for the United States any revenues which by this Act become the sole property of the United States, and said revenues shall be deposited in the Treasury<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Center Market excepted.</p></sidenote> of the United States as “Miscellaneous Receipts,” but the revenues from the property known as Center Market shall not be so<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Commissioners to submit estimates based on fixed proportions of appropriations.</p></sidenote> collected;

<p class="firstIndent1 fontsize10"><sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Fiscal relations of District and United States.</p><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Joint committee created to inquire into all matters relating to, since July 1, 1874.</p></sidenote>A joint select committee, composed of three Senator’s to be appointed by the President of the Senate, and three Representatives to be appointed by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, is created and is authorized and directed to inquire into all matters pertaining to the fiscal relations between the District of Columbia and the United States since July 1, 1874, with a view of ascertaining and reporting to Congress what sums have been expended by the United States and by the District of Columbia, respectively, whether for the purpose of maintaining, upbuilding, or beautifying the said District or for the purpose of conducting its government or its governmental activities and agencies, or for the furnishing of conveniences, comforts, and necessities to the people of said District. Neither the<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Federal buildings not Included.</p></sidenote> cost of construction nor of maintenance of any building erected or owned by the United States for the purpose of transacting therein the business of the Government of the United States shall be considered<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Interest on amounts found due from one to the other.</p></sidenote> by said committee. And in event any money may be, or at any time has been by Congress or otherwise, found due, either legally or morally, from the one to the other, on account of loans, advancements, or improvements made, upon which interest has not been paid by either to the other, then such sums as have been or may be found due from one to the other, shall be considered as bearing interest at the rate of 3 per centum per annum from the time when the principal should, either legally or morally, have been paid, until<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">To ascertain if surplus exists to credit of District.</p></sidenote> actually paid.

The chairman or acting chairman of said committee hereby is empowered to administer oaths or affirmations. The committee also is empowered to compel witnesses to attend its meetings and to testify, and also to compel the production of such books and papers as it may deem desirable. Any person who has been duly notified to appear before the committee either as witness or witness duces tecum, and fails so to do, shall be deemed guilty of contempt of Congress, and therefore may be punished to such extent as either the Senate or the House may determine; and said committee shall determine whether the proceeding for contempt shall lie with the<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Accountants, etc.</p><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Disqualification of District residents, etc.</p></sidenote> House or the Senate. The committee may employ such accountants and stenographers to assist in the work as may be necessary, but the same qualifications for such accountants shall be required as was<page identifier="/us/stat/42/671">671</page> required of accountants by section 6 of the Act of June 20, 1874,<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Vol. 18, p. 119.</p></sidenote> entitled “An Act for the government of the District of Columbia and for other purposes,” and no one shall be so employed as accountant who is or has been heretofore an officer or employee of the District of Columbia or the United States. No employee of said committee<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Pay restriction.</p></sidenote> shall be paid more than $25 a day while actually at work. The<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Assignment of attorney.</p></sidenote> Attorney General of the United States hereby is authorized and directed to assign a competent attorney from his regular force of attorneys to represent the United States before said committee; and any Member of Congress shall be permitted to examine any witness<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Appropriation for expenses.</p></sidenote> and argue any question before the committee. For the payment of salaries of accountants and stenographers, for printing and binding, and other necessary expenses of the committee, there is appropriated 40 per centum out of the Treasury of the United States and 60 per centum out of the revenues of the District of Columbia, the sum of $20,000, to be paid out upon vouchers approved by the chairman or acting chairman of the committee.</p>
<p class="firstIndent1 fontsize10">That all Acts or parts of Acts in conflict with any provision of this<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Conflicting laws repealed.</p></sidenote> Act are hereby repealed to the extent of such conflict but no further.</p>
<p class="firstIndent1 fontsize10">That in order to defray the expenses of the District of Columbia<sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Appropriation for expenses, 40 per cent from the Treasury, and remainder from District revenues.</p></sidenote> for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1923, 40 per centum of each of the following sums, except those herein directed to be paid otherwise, hereby is appropriated out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, and all the remainder out of the combined revenues of the District of Columbia and the advances from the Federal Treasury herein permitted, namely:</p>
