The report of the 11 republicans
of the committee was the same as
Chairman Green's except for consid
erable additional argument defend
ing the cut in gurlaies to a maximum
of 25 per cent. It pointed out that
the hbxh rates were becoming in

'The only way that the Income
tax as applied to large incomes can
be made an actuality." the report
said, "is by reducing the rate of tax
to a sound level and thus lessening
the incentive to tax layers to avoid
tho tax."
The democratic report called for
a reduction in the normal taxes to

Referring to Iho provision for a
25 per cent reduction In tux on
earned incomes, the chairman said
. "The definition that at least 15,-
000 of the taxpayers' income shall in
HI cases be considered earned amply
provides for the small taxpayer, such
us the furruer and the merchant
whose Income Is derived in part from
capital, and approaches exact justice
as near as It is possible without mak

The following changes were recited
so as to prevent the ndvance In In

that the amount by which the tax Is

"The provisions of the reorgan

to prevent the use of the section to
escape proper taxation by Increasing

tween $5,000 and IS, 000 and bIx per
cent above that amount.
Representative earner's original
plan called for a four p"r cent tax on
Incomes between f5,0u0 and $10,
000; and the reduction to $8,000 was
explained as necessary to keep down
the loss In revenue which the treas
ury would sustain under the plan.
The surtax rates proposed by the
democrats would sturt with one per
cent at $12,000 and lncrcaso to 4 4
per cent on Income of $92,000 and
over. These rates, the report suid
would result in losses of revenue,
under treasury estimates, of $186,
257, KKQ In the normal taxes compar
ed with $77,104,804 under the Mel
lon rotes adopted by the committee
and $139, 803.395 In the surtaxes
compared to $200,352,243 under the
Mellon surtaxes. The figures were
based on 1921 revenue returns.
Citing Secretary Motion's declara
tion that Representative Carner,
ranking democrat of the committee
"was plnying politics In offering
this tax revision plan," the report
declared his expression was an "un
heard of performance, as insolent
as It is Imprudent, and in the Judg
ment of the minority is In the worst
of bad faith toward progressive In
come taxation."
In addition to asking different In
come ratos, the democrats proposed
higher estate tax and enactment of
a gift tux together with the repeal
of a number of the miscellaneous
tuxes In addition to those ulreudy
revised by the committee
The report explained that all
features of the bill were considered
by tho whole committee until the
committee rates were reached, when
the democrats wore oxcluded.
Many sections of the measure, oth
er than tho income rates are prais
ed, particular on the provisions re

administration of the law by which
many largo tax payers escape their
