HIGHER INCOME
TAX Is PLANNED
Wilson Sanctions. Increase in
Rates Suggested by McAdoo
to Raise Revenue
Special to The Telegraph

Washington, ID. c., Nov 26.-The
first authoritative intimation of the
program of taxation that the admins
tration will suggest to the next Con-
gress was given out yesterday by Sec
retary McAdoo. While his statement
gives the items merely in the form of
personal suggestions, there is no doubt
that his utterance was approved by
the President and that Mr.. Wilson has
in mind the tax levies suggested.
Secretary McAdoo voices the oppo-
sition of the administration to a bond
issue for national defense purposes
and expresses the opinion that it will
not be necessary; that the needed ex-
penditures can be met with taxes
widely diffused and scarcely felt"
He also takes a more optimistic view
of the revenue situation confronting
the government than do many leaders
of Congress. Mr.. McAdoo figures that
the new revenue necessary to meet
the deficit in 1917 and the increased
national defense program will be
s112,S06. .394. In other words, the ad-
hiNlOhei NoNtS Will represent u lllllS
more than a dollar for every person
in the United States if there is to be
no issue of bonds.
SIcAdoos Plan
Secretary McAdoo's plan, briefly, is
as follows:
An increase in the rates of taxation
on individual and corporate incomes.
A reduction of the income tax ex-
emption from $4,000 to $4,000 for
single persons and from $4,000 to
$4,000 for married persons.
The application of the surtax to in
come above $4,000 or $751; ,000 instead
of $50. 900. as fixed by the present law.
An extension of the war tax to gaso-
line, crude and refined oils, horse
power of automobiles and "other in
ternal combustion engines
Re-enactment of the war revenue
tax in it's present form.
Repeal of the clause in the present
tariff law which puts sugar on the free
list beginning with May / next thus
retaining this large item of revenue.
