New War Taxes Discussed.
Washington, D. C. — Installment
plun payment of war taxes will be pro
vide«! for in the new revenue bill
which the house ways and means com
mittee is preparing to draft. Chair
man Kitchin disclosed this fact during
a hearing before the committee, when
Albert K. Palmer, of New York, repre
senting a large number of corpora
tions, urged that such provision be
made.
Mr. Palmer advocated tax on gross I
sales, which he said would be less felt |
than the tax on war profits. He op
posed a tax on stock dividends, con-1
tending that exemption from taxes
should not be based on capital because
of the widely varying revenues of
companies operating along the same
lines. He argued for a tax on gross
income which could be passed along
easily to the consumer.
