nue., and another to extend the pres
ent corporation tax to include individ-
uals. and co-partnerships doing bus
mess of $4,000 a year, and over, was
ratified last night by the democratic
caucus of the house. The estimate of
Underwood and members of the ways
and means committee, is that the pro-
posed excise tax would bring in reve-
nue. between fifty and sixty million
dollars a year.
Underwood announced that the bills
would be reported to the house in d
few days. I'VE simply took the cor
poration tax law, rewrote it to include
individuals and co-partnerships, said
Underwood. This bill, to illustrate
means that l. whose business is thai

In addition TO the statutory bond of

AS to whether fines assessed against

Upward of an hour was devoted to
the clause fixing the charge for cur
rent two cents cheaper than that which

position was still holding the board
when the committee came to the con-

1t remained for Mr. Moore to insist
that some definite date be fixed for the
next meeting. He pointed out that the
proposition had been hanging fire for
close onto six months and he wanted
no more unnecessary delays.
