ATTORNEY GENERAL WICKER
SHAM PREPARING DRAFT OF
NEW LAW.
PRESIDENT OPTIMISTIC
THINKS THE Big CORPORATIONS
WOULD Paw TWO PER CENT.
TAX WITHOUT EVASION.

washington.-Mr Taft is decidedly
optimistic over the outlook for his
corporation tax, but a number of sen
ators who called at the White House
Monday declared that the proposition
would keep the Senate in session un-
til long past August 1st.
Senator Elkins was one OF the call
ers and declared he and others would
have some remarks to make in the
Senate when the new scheme Of tax
alton IL considered. Mr.. Elkins be-
lieves all corporations would attempt
to avoid payment of the tax.
President Taft. on the other hand,
does not believe that q two per cent.
tax on net earnings is heavy enough
to make any of the larger corporations
resort to evasive measures. AS to
bonds. it is possible. the President
feels. to provide . limit for the issu-
ance of such securities based en- the
capital stock, that will prevent cor
porations from transferring all their
securities into bonds, the interest on
which is paid from gross earnings.
tie issuance Of bonds In the future tC
provide that the interest shall be paid
only from net earnings.
Attorney General Wickersham and
Senator Root are jointly preparing a
draft of the new law.
Questions as to the constitutionality
Of the proposed tax do not disturb the
President. The right to impose such
tax has been distinctly upheld In
case before the Supreme Court-that
Of Spreckels vs. the United States.
II an income tax were passed. in
functions against its collection could
be secured. because Of the Supreme
Court decision declaring unconstitu-
tional a former act of this character.
1t would be years before any collec-
tions could be made under such . tax
even II the court finally reversed it's
self.
The President does not believe there
is any immediate emergency to stop
collection Of corporation taxes. The
courts must presume it to be consti-
tutional under decisions Of the past;
hence no Injunction would issue.
There seems now to be little doubt
but that the corporation tax as passed
will exempt earnings Of $4,000 and
less, 20 rs to take any undue burdens
off the smaller corporations. This is
the understanding at the White House.
The collection of the proposed cor
poration tax would be under the direc-
ton of the Internal Revenue Bureau
and, while additional inspectors and
other employees would be necessary, it
is not believed any added authority
would be required. The internal reve-
nue. authority would act in harmony
with the Bureau of Corporations Of
the Department Of Commerce and La
Dor, and 1t would fall to the latter bu-
reau to keep an eye on the corpora
tions as to any evasive measures they
might adopt. The method Of collection
would be similar to that employed in
collecting the whisky tax.
Finishing touches will be put ON the
amendment at . White House confer
ence. President Taft will supervise
the work personally.

However, he stated that he was un-

declared that his father never drew

that he followed with three shots.

out of the tie; that the ball had passed
through the knot, passed under the
outer flap of the collar, travelled two
inches, torn through this flap, passed

the neck and the joint. There were
blood stains on the shirt, undershirt
and vest.
On the left sleeve of the coat and

the bullet going wide.
Willis then returned to his brothers

the bottle was knocked from his hand
