sult of his effort "to crash" Jail 43
years ago, young George H. Davis
Joined the Salvation Army. Now, at
61, he become director of its world
wide evangelistic work.
He Is Col. George H. Davis, chief
secretary for the army'a western
United States territory, who has been
appointed "International spiritual
special" by Oen. Evangeline C. Booth,
one of the highest posts received by
an American officer.
His conversion came at 10. It was
at a Methodist revival conducted by a
Quaker minister.
"Boy Preacher" In 1R92
Young Davis turned from the
status of a "boy preacher" In Pitts
burgh, Pa., to that of Salvation Army
soldier in 1893. he recalls, as direct
result of arrest of the army'a captain
there for preaching on a street corner.
"I thought that as a good Christian
I ought to go to Jail too." he says.
"I was afraid the police might pass
me up as I was. so I buckled on a
drum so I couldn't be missed."
It took persistent courage to con
duct atreet meetings in those days.
"We were beaten, pelted and made
victims of riota." he remembers. "We
used to have to lock arms with our
women folk inside a square and go
out Into mobs howling and shouting
they would kill us. It went on until
one old man was killed. lie died In
my arms."
"I'll Be a Bum"
His new work will carry him all

His orders call for him first to

formerly sn officer, and one of his
two sons Is now one of Its captains.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6. ( AP) A
summary of the new tax bill:
Individual Incomes The bill boosts
the surtaxes on Individual Incomes
over $50,000. On that part of an in
come between $50.000-50,000 the In
crease Is from the present 30 per
cent to 31 per cent. On the higher
brackets, the Inrraase Is greater. For
example, on $IGO,000-200.000 the
raise Is from 53 to 60 per cent: on
$400.000-500,000, the tax Jumps from
56 to 68 per cent: on $1 .000 .ooo
$2,000,000, It Increases from 50 to
73 per cent: on that part of an In
come over $5,000,000, it is 75 per
cent against the present 59.
Corporation Incomes Replaces the
present flat 13si per cent levy on
net Income with a tax of 13'i per
cent on the first $15,000 and M'
per cent on Income above $15.-00.
This, government officials say, will
reduce the taxes paid by about W
per cent of the corporations. The 8
per cent which will pay Increases
make about 00 per cent of the total
corporstlon Income.
Excess profits Lets corporations
declare the value of their capital.
Permits them an 8 per cent profit
on that capital without tax. Charges
5 per cent on that part of the profit
between 8 and 13 per cent. 10 per
cent on 13 to 16 per cent; 15 per
cent on 16 to 25 per cent and 20
per cent on all profit over 35 per
cent.

addition to those already Imposed
upon estates, on the recipients of
Inheritances. Allows a $50,000 ex- j
emptlon to close kin and a $10,000
exemption to others. The first tax
able $10,000 will be taxed at 4 per
cent. The rates step up by brackets
to 30 per cent on that portion of an
inheritance between $50,000 and j
$100,000: 40 per cent on $700,000 to j
$1,000,000: 64 per cent on $5,ooo.oou
to $6,000,000; 75 per cent on all.
over $10,000,000. j
Olf ts Makes recipients of gifts ;
pay taxes Just as givers now have 1
to pay them. The tax on the donees,
however, Is stlffer. At present, a
donor pays "j of I per cent nn the
first taxable $10,000. Under the new
bill, the recipient would pay 3 per
cent. The existing top rate on the
donor la 45 per cent on that portion
of the gift over $10,000,000. The new
levy on the donee would be 57 per
cent. The same $50,000 and 10.000
exemptions as apply to Inheritances
are granted on gifts.
