manner that has been characteristic
all through life, making her well de-
serving of the title of an ideal mother.
Mrs. Mclean lived a life that could
bring nothing but loving memory.
Her kind disposition made her a tried
and true friend long to be cherished

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 a tax of l per cent. on
his earnings in excess Of the exemp-
ton. This would not compel the mar
who earns only $4,000 to pay a tax,
but it would demand that one who
earned $4,100, for example, pay into
the government treasury an annual
tax of l per cent. on 500, OF 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 $50, 900, and 8
per cent. additional on earnings in *.
cess Of 500, 1000.
How surtax Would BE Imposed.
Under the surtax provisions the mar
who earns $2O,0 600 would pay to the
government each year at the rate OF
l per cent. on $4,000 $4,000 exempt
or $3.50. II he earns $50, 900 he would
pay 1 per cent. on SIG, 900, and 2 per
cent. on $4,000, making his annual
tax $3.50. The person with a $4,000
income would pay l per cent, on $16,
900 and 2 per cent. on $50, OOO-a total
tax Of $3.50. The man with an income
Of $1,000 would be required to pay
l per cent. on $4,000, 2 per cent. on
$4,000. and 8 per cent. on $50 1000.
which would be $500, bringing his
total income tax to 1920. Anyone
with q net income Of a million
would pay this $2,260 on his first
$1,000 900 and in addition he would pay
4 per cent. on $500, 900, which would
bring his total tax to $3S,260.
This bill also would re-enact tn
present corporation tax law, imposin
a / per cent. tax on the earnings 0
corporations. stock companies, insur
ance companies and the like, but It
would exempt partnerships. This is
a 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
collestion.
The bill includes under It's proyi
siona the property,and earnings In this
country OF persons who live abroad.
