THE WHITE HOUSE CONFERENCE
AGREES ON DETAILS OF THE
PROPOSED MEASURE,
TO TAX net EARNINGS
INCLUDES ALL CORPORATIONS
HAVING CAPITAL STOCK AND
ORGANIZED FOR PROFIT.

Washington.-Details of the pro-
posed measure for the taxation of net
earnings of corporations were ar
ranged Tuesday night at the most i'm
portant conference that has been held
at the White House since Mr.. Taft as
sumed the presidency
There were present as the Presi-
dents guests at dinner, Attorney Cen
eral Wickersham and Senator Knox,
who are charged with the work OF
drafting the measure; Secretary Knox.
Senators Aldrich. Burrows. Pen
rose. Hale. Cullom, Flint, Smoot.
McCumber and Lodge. Speaker Can
non. Representative Payne and Rep
resentative John Dwight OF New
York
For two hours the corporation tax
measure. which had been prepared in
the form of an amendment to the tar
if bill, was viewed from every angle.
Many changes in form were suggest
ed. The carefully prepared copies
given to each member of the party by
Attorney General Wickersham were
returned to him at the end of the con-
ference
President Taft himself suggested
that the copies should not be taken
by the members Of the party until the
amendment had been perfected. All
agreed not to make the form of the
amendment public until it is ready to
be introduced in the Senate.
The terms of the measure provide
that all corporations having capital
stock and organized for profit shall
pay a tax OF two per cent. on their
net earnings. Corporations coming
within that designation will be COM
PEELED to make returns to specially
named agents of the Bureau Of Inter
nal Revenue OF the Treasury Depart
ment. giving the amount OF their
gross receipts. capital stock, bonded
indebtedness and all other visible
debts.
The amendment will define in the
broadcast possible way the character
Of losses which may be deducted from
the net earnings upon which the tax
is to be collected.
The two per cent tax will apply to
all corporations organized for profit.
Out cdSA Soi pOldtiou Will Dc dIUWeu d
$4,000 exemption.
Any corporation which makes
false report will be subjected to
penalty, the amount of which was not
decided upon. Most of the partici-
pants in the conference expressed the
opinion that 1t should range from ST.
900 to 10000.
The tax will be collected upon the
entire amount OF preferred and COM
mon stock Of every corporation and
upon the bonds Of a corporation where
they exceed the total amount Of capi-
tai.
1t is intended that the bill shall be-
come operative Immediately on its
passage. The life Of the measure was
made indeterminate. The present
years tax will be collectible July /,
1910.
1t was decided that only especially
designated agents Of the bureau
should be permitted to interrogate the
corporations concerning their busi-
ue0.

to show the last and utmost personal

times harder; be could never tell

We'll, l have something to say to

Why didn't you answer my letters?
Why have you treated me this way?
That's what l want to know"
He leaned toward her. He was con-
scious OF two emotions. two passions,
struggling within him, one of anger,
almost hate, the other of love, and
strangely enough they had a striking
similarity in their effect upon him. He
felt like reproaohing, yet he knew that
was not the way. and he made a des-
perate struggle to conquer himself.
He tried to look into her face, but
she only turned farther away from

she did not answer. They sat there,
then, in silence.

She had set her committee on less
important game; the ladies were scat

a little set OF men. When Mrs. Over
man Hodge-Lathrop saw Vernon COM
ing, she turned from Braidwcod and
Porter and stood awaiting him.
Strangely enough Braidwood and Por-
ter stayed where they were. as II she
had put them there. And Vernon re-
nected that he had never known them,
as doubtless no one else had ever
known them, to do such thing as
that before.
Where's Amelia?" he asked before
she could speak.

She paused that Vernon might COM

magnanimity.

other way than to bring her down

She turned toward Braidwood and
Porter, still standing where she had
left them.
When you have done, I'll see you
with reference to this miserable reso-
luton; but that can wait till we are at
the capitol. This other matter comes
hrst OF course"
She smiled with a fat sweetness.
And. Morley" she said order two
carriages for US at ten o'clock You
may drive to the capitol with u.s."
And she went away.
Vernon ordered the carriages, and in
turning the whole matter over in his
mind he came to the conclusion that
he must deal with these complications
one at time; Miss Greene, as events
now had shaped themselves. would
have to wait until he got over to the
State House.
