THE WAR LEVY
IS TO REMAIN

l. The burden on imports must he

2. The prohibition movement and
the campaign against the use OF to-
bacco are cutting down consumption

1t Is pointed out that the liquor and
tobacco taxes which were imposed lur-
ing the Civil war as war taxes have
remained in effect for so long that
they are now considered ordinary
taxes.
In addition to continuation of the
war tax, the administration financiers
look to an increased income tax and
an inheritance tax.
