FRENCH GOVERNMENTS
NEW TAXATION SCHEME

year Is made progressive UP to 4
per cent of the total Even govern
ment rentes. excepting those held
abroad, only nominally escape, the
coupons themselves being exempt, but
the revenue therefrom being taxed
when the total income of the holder ex-
ceeds the minimum laid down. French
savings are largely invested in rentes
The burdens placed upon foreign Sc
curities, both private and government
al, constitute a particularly heavy
blow to Russian securities, of which
It is estimated that from eight TO 10
milliards are held in France.

of the radical reforms to which the

self upon assuming office. 1t was sub
mitted for the approval of M. Jaures,
the socialist leader, before the intro
duction In the chamber, and while II
is received with unbounded joy by the
socialists as a proper shifting OF the
burden of taxation to the shoulders
of the idle rich. it is sure to encounter
intense opposition from the more mod
crate Republicans as well as from the
conservative parties.

mittee on the child labor bill, Senator

1T Is absurd as a matter of law,
II deliberately ignores decisions of the
supreme court, like the famous lottery
decision: ignores the existence of a
dozen similar laws, such as the meat
law. food law or the law prohibiting
interstate commerce in insects: COM
pletely ignores the fact that the power
of Congress over interstate commerce
is the same as the power over foreign
commerce. which has been upheld by
the supreme court of the United States
more than a dozen times; ignores the
existing law prohibiting the importa-
ton OF convict-made goods, which the
supreme court says we have the right
to prohibit from interstate commerce.
IF reform bills can be killed by re-
fering them to a small committee OF
men, then there is an end of the whols

d. rigorous development OF recent
years"
