WAY TO RAISE
BONUS PUZZLES
Stock Exchange, Sales, and
j Retroactive War-Profits
Taxes Are Considered
WASHINGTON. April 27. The
fight over the method of raising al
most two billion dollars for soldier
relief legislation precipitated an all
day debate inl the house today dur
ing which Republicans on one side
and the combination of i Democrats
and Insurgent Republicans on the
other, explained their proposals.
Representative Johnson. Republi
can, South Dakota, announced that
75 Republican "insurgents" favored
a retroactive "war profits" tax In
stead of a sales tax,' . proposed by
Republicans. His statement, if borne
out later, would Indicate an upset of
the Republican program to pass ihe
bill Monday without permitting1 ac
tion on the "war profits' tax pro
posal. Representative . Garner of
Texas, Democratic whip, i predicted
that the result of the Republican
caucus Friday; night would be to
"whip" the insurgents into line.
Mr, Johnson and Representative
Henry Rainey, Democrat of Illinois.
introduced today the "war profits"
tax bill, which (would place an SO
per cent levy on the Increase of net
income during the last four years
over that of the pre-war period. The
plan was attacked by Representatives
Green of Iowa, and Longworth, Ohio.
Republicans, who declared it would
"levy taxes on taxes" and that the
excess earnings of Individuals and
corporations during the war had al
ready been taxed more than uO per
cent.
To accept this plan means there
will be no soldier legislation," de
clared Mr. Longworth, adding that
it would "kill the soldiers' bill." He-
sides the levy on sales, which he said
worth said that all stock exchange
transactions were to be taxed, while
Ihe existing levy on tobacco, incomes
and real estate sales was to be in
creased.
Representative Clarke. Democratic
loader, and Garner, demanded that
opportunity be given to amend the
bill. Mr. Clarke recalled the parlia
mentary revolution of 1910 and gave
a "gentle warning" that the Repub
licans "were entering on the same
kind of conduct that led to the up
set of their machine then."
Mr. Garner said the Republicans
were "playlne politics" with the leg- I
is'ation and would not pats it until .
after the election.
"Congress ought never to paFS a
bill, declared Mr. Clarke in this con
nection, out which more irritation
than revenue is to come."
