The purpose of the bill is to exempt from taxation the property situated in square no. 137 in the city of Washington, District of Co- lumbia, known as lot 36, occupied and used by the Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War, so long as the same is so owned, occupied, and used, subject to the provisions of the existing law relating to the exemption of charitable, church, and school property. Under existing law the exemption of property of charitable institu- tions is limited to buildings belonging to institutions of purely public charity. This limitation has been construed not to include property of a patriotic society, even though a committee of that society is engaged in work of a charitable nature. It is the view of your com- mittee that this property of the Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War of the District of Columbia, being used solely for charitable purposes, should be given the benefit of the same exemption from taxation which is accorded property of institutions performing work of a like nature. 0
