' Washington. Jane IT. President Taft yesterday sent the following mas sage to congress: "To the Senate and House of Reptv senatlves It is the constitutional duty of tb president, from time to time, to present to the consideration of congress such measures ss he shall judge neose aary and expedient In my inaugural address, immedi ately preceding this present extraordi nary session of congress, I invited at tention to the necessity for a revision of the tariff at this session, and stated tb principles upon which-- thought the revision-should be effected. I re ferred to the then rapidly Increasing deficit, and pointed out the obligation on the part of the framers of the tariff bill to arrange duties so ss to secure an adequate income, and suggested that if it waa not possibls to do so by import duties, new kinds of taxation must be adopted, and among them I recommend ed a graduated inheritance tax as cor rect in principle and as certain and iy of collection. lbs boss of representatives has I adopted the suggestion and baa pro vided in the bill it passed for the col lection of such a tax. In the sensts, the action of its finance committee and the course of the -debate indicate that it may not agree to this provision, and- It-is now proposed to make up the deficit by tb imposition of a general income tax, in form and substance al most exactly the same character aa that Whi ta 2V"" Pllock ,arm - T IA.Tnist company, 1B7 U. 8. wIDa Dy "" supreme eoartto dc uuki tH, enu uwniwvnw wiui- in the power of ttw Federal govern ment to Impose unless apportioned among the states according to popu lation. "This sew proposal, which I did not discuss in my inaugural address or my message at the opening of the present session, makes it appropriate for me to submit to congress certain additional recommendations. "The decision of the Supreme court in the income tax eases deprives the national government of power which, by reason of aveveoas deeiitone of the court, it was generaly supposed the government bad. It la ondoubteedly a power the national government ought to have. It might be Indispensable to the nation's life is great crises. "Although I hav sot considered s constitutional amendment aa necessary to the exercise of pertain phssss of this power, a mstass e Ideratton has satisfied me that an amendment I tb only proper coarse for its establishment to its full extant. -I therefore recom mend to the congress that both houses, by a two-thirds veto, shall propose an amendment to the eeneti tattoo - eonssr ring tb power to levy as Income tax upon the national government without apportionment smnng the states hi pro portion to population. "This course k noes to 6s preferred to tb one proposed, of re-enacting A law one judicially declared to be un constitutional, for congress to assoms that the court will reverse itself and to. enact legislation snob assnmptien will not strengthen popular confidence is the stability of the judicial ooiietroe- Moo of the eoosti tattoo. - It is much wiser policy to accept the sonstltation and remedy the defeat in das and regu lar course.

"I therefore recommend an amend ment to the tariff bill imposing upon all corporations and joint stock com panies for profit, except national banks, otherwise taxed, savings banks and building and loan societies, an income tax measured by 2 per cent of the net income of such corporations. This is an excise tax upon the privilege of do ing business as an artificial entity and of freedom from a general partnership liability enjoyed by those who own the stock. "I am informed that a S per sent tax of this character would bring into the treasury of the United States not lass that 926,000,000. ' " "The decision of the Supreme court In the case of the Spreckles Sugar Re fining company against McClatn seams clearly to establish the fact that such a tax aa this is an excise tax upon priv ilege, and not a direct tax on property, and is within the Federal power with out apportionment- according to . popu lation. . "Tb tax on net Income la preferable to one proportionate to a percentage of the gross receipts, because it is a tax upon success and not failure. It im poses a burden at the source of the in come st s time when the employer is well sbls to pay and when collection Is easy. "Another merit of this tax fa the federal supervision which most be ex ercised in-order to make the law effect ive over the annual accounts and busi ness transactions of all corporations. White the faculty or assuming a cor porate form baa been of the utmost utility in tb business work), it is also true that substantially all of the abuses and all of the evils which hav aroused tb public to tb necessity of reform will be made possible by the use of this very faculty. "If now, by a perfectly legitimate nd effective system of taxation, we C incidentally able to possess the and .toekholders snd the public of the knowledge of the real business transactions and the gains arid profits of every corporation in the country, w hav made a long step to ward that supervisory control of eor- porationa wbica may prevent s further abuse of power. "I recommend then, first,- tb adop tion of s joint resolution by two-tfairds of both bouses, proposing to the states an amendment to the constitution granting to the Federal government the right to levy and collect aa meorae tax. without apportionment among the states, according to population; and second, the enactment as part of the pending revenue measure, either ss substitute for or an addition to, the in heritance tax, of an excise tax upon all corporations, measured by 2 per cent of their net income.
