BROKERS PROTEST TAX
Opposition to Means of Raising War
Revenue.

Stock brokers are protesting to
Democrats of the house ways and
means committee against the proposal
TO include in the war revenue bill now
being drafted special tax on them OF
$50 a year. Such a tax was levied IN
the war revenue act OF the Spanish.
American war, which the Democratic
caucus authorized the committee to
emulate in the present emergency.
The stock brokers base their claim
for exemption on the fact that stock
exchanges are closed throughout tho
country because of the war and that
their business Is demoralized. They
also point to the uncertainty as TO
when stock exchanges will resume OPP
erations.
The matter will be taken up when
the committee expects to receive from
the treasury department estimates of
revenue to be derived from special
and stamp taxes proposed to be levied.
Several members Of the committee
maintain that the brokers tax should
be included, because the brokers have
not closed their Offices.
