Ou May 23, 1917, the House o f Uep- r<> entatlves passed an n' t “ to provide revenue to defray w ar expenses and for other purposes.” In the original bill as presented by the Committee o f Wo . i and Mean . the additional reve nuc to be derived was estimated at $1,- 810,120,000. The amendment to the in- cou • lux, which was tucked on to the bill during the ill eusslon In the House, w. i expected to yield unothcr $40,000,- 01» or $50,000,000. In discussing the House bill, tw o problems arise: I. IIo w pinch should bo raised by taxation? II. In what manner should this sum be raised? I. How Much Should Be Raisod by Taxation? How was the figure o f $1,800,000,000 arrived nt ? The answer Is simple. When the Secretary o f the Treasury tam e to estimate the additional v r expenses for (lie year 1917 is, he calculated that they would arm nut to some $0.000,- ooo.ouo, o f which $3 <<00,000,000 was to Is1 allotted to the able and $.'!.0tX),- OOn.OOO wns to be utilized for the do niestl" purposes. Thinking that ft would Is* n fair prop 4tlon to divide this luttcr sum between loans and taxes, he concluded that the nniount to Is* raised by taxes was $1.800,000,- 0 0 There are tw o extrem e theories, euch o f width may lx* dlsmls ed with scant courtesy. The one l.i that u 11' w ar ex- pemlHurts should be defrayed by loans, an I the other Is that uII w ar expendi tures should lie defrayed by taxes. Each theory Is untenable. It Is Indeed true that the burdens of the war should Is* l>ortie by the pres ent rather than the future generation; but this does not mean that they should lie borne by tills year’s taxation. Meeting ull w ar expenses by taxation makes the taxpayers In one or two years Lear the burden o f benefits that ought to be distributed at least over a decade within the same generation. Ill the second place, when expendi tures npproni li the gigantic sums o f present-day warfare, the tax-only pol- ley would require more than the total surplus o f social income. W ere this absolutely necessary, the ensuing hav- oe In the economic life o f theeoimnunl- ty would have to Is? endured. But where the disasters are so great and at the ar,:e t ::ne so mine -ssar.v, the tox-only | alley i n r be tie lured Im •»radii able. Secretary McAdoo bad the right In- .-tlnet and hi 'lily commendable cour- uge lu tU'cldlng that n s.ib'tantlal por- • Ion. at least, o f the rercuues should lie derived from taxation. But when he hit upi a the plan o f 59-50 per cent., that is, o f raising one-half o f all do- ruestle w ar expenditures by taxes, the qtiedlon arises wh. her he did not go too far. The relative proportion o f loans to taxes Is a fter all n purely business proposition. Not to rely to a large ex tent oa loans at the outset o f n w ar is n mistake.

But the principle upon win h these war-profit taxes arc laid me t bo equitable In theory and easily calculable In practice. The Proposed Income Tax. The additional income tax as passed by the House runs up to a rate o f 00 per cent. T h is Is a sum unheard o f in the history o f civilized society. It must , T h e Kind You Have Alw ays Bought be remembered that It was only after ▼ H t CINTAUW COMPANY. NEW YORK CITY,_ _ _ _ _ _ _ tin* first year o f the w ar that Great 1 Britain Increased her income tax to the iicxim um o f 31 per cent., and that, even now in the fourth year o f the war the Ineome tax does not exceed 42*4' per cent. It could easily be shown that a tax | with rates on moderate Incomes sub stantially less than In Great Britain, and on the larger income's about ns high, would yield only slightly less than the $532,000,000 originally estimated In j the House bill. It 1 to be hoped that the Senate w ill reduce the total rate on the highest In-1 comes to 34 per cent, or at most to 40 | per cent, and that nt the same tim e it w ill reduce the rate on the smaller In comes derived from personal or profes sional earnings. If the war continues we shall have to depend more and more upon the in come tax. By imposing excessive rates new we are not only endangering the fi lure, but are inviting all manner of di Acuities which even Great Britain has been able to escape. Conclusion. The House bill contains other funda mental defects which may he summed up as follow s: (l i It pursues an erroneous principle ! In Imposing retroactive taxes.

T o do more than this would be as unwise as It 1» mince, „«ary. T o do even this would be to do more than has ever been done by any civilized Govern ment in tim e o f stress. t2i The ess-profits tax based upon a sound system ought to yield about $500.000,000. (3) The income-tax schedule ought to be revised w ith a low ering o f the rates on earned Incomes below $10,000, and with an analogous low ering o f the P ro p rieto rs. rate; on the higher Incomes, so as not to exceed 31 per cent.
