ntiaV TIIE SUNDAY OREGOXIA, PORTLAND, FEBRUARY 20, 191C. M Oil SILLER rats mm Democratic Leaders in House Decide to Put Defense Levy on Sums Above $3000. 2 TO 8 PER CENT PROPOSED Tentative Bills Ixwking to Raisin; $100,000,000 First Year for lrep red news fnder Dis r cusslon by Congress. " WASHINGTON. Feb. 19. The pro posal to amend the income tax law -so ns to include smaller incomes virtually is certain to be abandoned in favor of an increased rate on those already taxed, it was declared tonight by Demo cratic House leaders. Sentiment against lowering the ex emption limit on the order to provide additional revenue for the preparedness programme crystalized. it was said, in the Democratic caucus Thursday night when Democratic Leader Kitchln de clared against changing the present minimum of $3000. Since then protest ants against all reduction plans have become more outspoken daily. Leaders declared tonight that virtu ally the entire preparedness revenue burden would be met with income taxes. Tentative bills looking to rais ing 100.000.000 solely by an increased income tax rate are being discussed and will be offered soon in committee. One of the Democratic leaders who will be active in framing the Adminis tration bill, said tonight he would sug gest doubling the present 1 per cent late on incomes below 20,000 and pos sibly .make the tax on Incomes above that amount as high as 8 per cent. He also might suggest lowering the mini mum income subject to the 1 per cent rate to $15,000. he said. Married men. according to this plan, would have the advantage of additional $1000 exemp tion as in the present law. Although neither the naval nor mili tary affairs committees has indicated what amount of money will be needed to meet the expenses of preparedness, it generally is understood that for the first year it will be close to $93,000,000. Tentative plans, it Is said, will proceed therefore on the theory that about $100,000,000 will be needed. The general impression is that active consideration of an income tax bill will not begin in the ways and means committee before some time next month, but in order to facilitate the work the committee clerks now are busy gathering data. It will be ready to place before the committee on con vening and thus, it, is hoped, a bill will be reported within a few weeks. No hearings will be held on the rais ing of preparedness revenue, however, until after the military committee re ports to the ways and means com mittee on the amount of money it will need.
