INCOME TAX UNCHANGED.
ATTEMPTS TO INCREASE, LIMIT
CHECKED IN SENATE.
Williams UphOlds Value of Bill AMI
opposes Radical Changes In Its
Provisions OGcrcd by Republicans.

washington, Aug. 26.-Attcmpts to
Increase the limit of the proposed in
come tax on larger incomes failed in
the senate today when Senators Bo-
rah. Bristow and Cummins led an cf-
Tort To amend the income tax section
OF the Democratic tariff bill.
Senator Rorah offered an amend
ment increasing the graduated tax on
larger incomes until it would have
reached 8 per cent on those above
100000 year. The Democrats,
aided by 10 Republicans, defeated the
amendment, AZ to II.
n more radical provision with q
maximum tax of 10 per cent on in
comes of 100000 or more will be
submitted by Senator Bristow 10.
morrow.
In the pending bill, the rates on
larger incomes are:
One per cent on incomes from
$4,000 to $4,000; per cent from
$4,000 to 100000; and per cent
on more than 100000.
Scantor Borah proposed the follow
ing additional tax:
One per cent on incomes from $1O,-
600 to $4,000; per cent from $780,
600 to $4,000; 3 per cent from $780,
M N f20 nm. A
600 to 100000, and per cent on
more than 100000.
Democrats voted solidly against the
increase.
The demand for an increase of the
tax on big incomes was accompanied
by the declaration that men with
large incomes would escape their Just
share of the tax, under the bill.
The man with the small income
always pays his tax more completely"
said Senator Borah, than does the
man with the large income. 1t is
much easier to find all the $4,000 i'm
comes than to find all the $4,000 in
comes. A tax of to per cent on
the man with 100000 will not in
convenience him more than the / per
cent tax will Inconvenience the man
with $4,000.
S"antor Williams, who had charge
Of the income tax provisions for the
Democratic side, insisted that the
committee had gone slowly and eau
tiously in inaugurating the new form
of direct taxation.
I'VE thought it well now to cs-
tablish the tax upon simple grounds
he said. Experience alone will show
how it works and the changes that
may be necessary in il. In future the
American people will have representa-
tives here who will revise and per-
feet it,"
When the senate adjourned tonigh[,
II had 100 or more paragraphs coy
ering tariff rates still to dispose of.
These are scattered throughout the
various schedules of the bill. Scna-
tor simmons, tariff leader announced
that he expected to complete the in
come and administrative features of
the measure before returning to tn,
tariff rates still In dispute. In the
meantime Democratic members of the
finance committee will attempt to set
tie all points at issue by Saturday
or Monday.
An attempt today by Senator
Brandegee to increase the proposed
duty on hats from 45 to so per cent
was defeated. An amendment by
senator Page to increase the duty
on calf skins and fancy leather from
10 to 10 per cent also was defeated.
