General Huerta said the strained diplo-
matte relations between Mexico and the
United States had caused the Mexican
national feeling to suffer unmerited af-
Fiction. and had retarded the pacif1ca-
ton of the country.
Nevertheless, he hoped for an early So
luton of the differences between the two
| nations, he said. and to see Mexico and
the United States once more united in
bonds of friendship.
| The privisional President drew dis
tirction between the attitude of the gov

the people, saying:
| 'The tenseness of our diplomatic rela-

with that people, has put the state Of
Mexico into a state Of apprehension
The period of six months allowed
American warships to remain IN Mex
lean waters by special permission of
Congress will expire next month. In
the opinion of the President, a renewal
of such permission should not be
granted.
Message Is Disappointing
The message was disappointing to many
who had expected that Provisional Presi-
dent Huerta would deal at length with
recent diplomatic exchanges.
This subject. however, he said, being
so delicate and the permanent commission
of Congress being already informed" he
passed with bare mention.
The deputies and senators in joint ses-

diplomatic galleries being filled with for

reading of the presidential document by
the reading clerk was broken at its con-

new INCOME TAX
STARTS AT $4,000
Elaborate Provision for Gradu-
ated Payment System in
New Tariff Bill.

Washington, D. Concluded in the
Democratic tariff revision bill is an
income tax section, which would re-
quire every resident of the United
States who earns more than $4,000 a
year to pay tax of 1 per cent. on
his earnings in excess of the exemp-
ton. This would not compel the man
who earns only $4,000 to pay tax,
but it would demand that one who
earned $4,100, for example, pay into
the government treasury an annual
tax of 1 per cent. on 500, or 81.
The bill also would provide higher
rates of taxation for persons with
larger incomes, adding surtax of 1
per cent additional on earnings in ex-
cess of 100000; 2 per cent. additional
on earnings in excess of $4,000, and 3
per cent. additional on earnings in ex-
cess of 100000.
How Surtax Would Be imposed.
Under the surtax provisions the man
who earns $4,000 would pay to the
government each year at the rate of
/ per cent on $4,000 $4,000 exempt i,
or $160. If he earns 100000 he would
pay 1 per cent. on $4,000, and 9 per
cent. on $4,000, making his annual
tax $3.50. The person with $4,000
income would pay 1 per cent. on $751;
900 and per cent. on 100000 total
tax of $760. The man with an income
of 100000 would be required to pay
1 per cent. on $4,000, 2 per cent. on
$4,000, and per cent. on $4,000,
which would be $780, bringing his
total income tax to $2,260. Anyone
with a net income of a million
would pay this s2,26O on his first
100000 and in addition he would pay
4 per cent on 100000, which would
bring his total tax to $3S,26O.
This bill also would re-enact the
present corporation tax law, imposing
| 1 per cent. tax on the earnings of
corporations, stock companies, insur-
ance companies and the like, but 1t
would exempt partnerships. This is
fat tax, there being no graduated
scale as the earnings increase. The
few changes from the present corpo-
ration tax act, concern chiefly the time
of making returns and the time for
collection.
The bill includes under it's provi-
sions the property and earnings in this
country of persons who live abroad
