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.

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 ,

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.
(2> It selects ail unjust and unwork
! able crlteri -n for the excess-profits tax.
| (3i It proceeds to an unhenrd-of
t height In tlie iucome tax.
| (I, It Imposes unwarranted burdens
I upon the consumption o f the commu
nity.
(5) It Is calculated to throw business
Into - . nfuslon by levying taxes on gross
! re e’pts Instead o f upon commodities.
I (<:< it fails to make a proper use o f
! stamp taxes.
i (7> It follows an unscientific system
i In [ts flat rate on imports.
| (Si It includes n m ultiplicity o f pet
I ty and nnliicratlve tnxes. the vexatious-
uess o f which is out o f all proportion to
, the revenue they produce.

The fundamental lines on which the

(1) The amount o f new tnxatlon

at the outset to $1,500,000,000. T o do
more than this would be as unwise as

would be to do more than has ever

t2i The

$500.000,000.
