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

Washington. d. C.--Included in the
Democratic tariff reVisi bill Is an
income tax section, VIII. 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-
tioni This would not compel the man
who earns only $4,000 to pay a tax,
but It would demand that one who
earned s4.100. for example, pay into
the government treasury an annual
tax of per cent. on 800. or 81.
The bill also would provide higher
rates of taxation for persons with
larger incomes, adding a surtax of 1
per cent. additional on earnings in ex-
cess of $4,000; 2 per cent. additional
on earnings in excess of $4,000, and 8
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
1 per cent on $4,000 $4,000 exempt). +.
or sl60. II he earns $4,000 he would
pay / per cent on $4,000, and per
cent. on $4,000. making his annual
tax $3.50. The person with a $4,000
income would pay l per cent on s16.-
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 3 per cent. on $4,000.
which would be $1,000, bringing his
total income tax to s2.260. Anyone
with 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 s3s.260.
This bill also would re-enact the
present corporation tax law. imposing
l 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 corpe-
ration tax act, concern chiefly the time
Of making returns and the time for
collection.
The bill includes under Its provi-
sions the property and earnings in this
country of persons who live abroad.

~ bile propelled by gasoline, plus
a alcohol.
Gasoline is a very earnest, excitable
fluid, but when it is used with mixed
high balls, cocktails, and gin fixes it
becomes a regular nuisance.
When propelled by gasoline alone an
automobile is respectable and lawabid-
ing, but under the influence of alcohol
it has been known to leap entirely off of
a road and to attempt to climb a tree.
The alcohol is not used directly IN the
automobile engine, but is applied to the
driver. After the driver of an autOmo-
bile has been well soaked in alcohol he
imagines he is running a racing cloud
nine miles above the law and he acts
accordingly.
Nothing is more exciting than to watch
a flushed young automobile driver trying
to use the rings of Saturn for a race
track while driving a tEo ton automO-
bile
All those who have watched a well
picked young scion of prosperity trying
to drive an automobile through an ex-

with the dash and unconventionaljty OF
the performance.
