URGES SURTAX ON
INCOME OF EX|lES
Senator Kenyon Would Reach
Property Supporting Those
! Who Live Abroad.

Indications are stvong that the move
ment for a large increase in the income
tax will become formidable before the
session is over and the y 'enue problem
Is solved by the Admir-. .stration and the
Democratic leaders.
One Of the striking plans for secur-
ing income tax Is embodied In bill IN
troduced today by Senator Kenyon to
levy a heavy surtax. additional to the
ns,iel income taxes. on Americans who
have expatriated themselves. This
surtax would run UP to % per cent In
the case Of incomes over s5oO,OOo. By
dneans Of it. 1t is proposed to reach cases
like those Of the new Baron Astor,
lately given a title by the English gov
srnment. and who is drawing heavy
income from properties here.
Believes 1t Lawful.
Senator Kenyon. who was formerly
Assistant to the Attorney General. says
he has no doubt whatever the tax car
be lawfully imposed.
The Association for an EQUITABLE
Federal Income Tax. officials of which
conferred with the President this week.
has likewise striking proposals for the
development of rapidly progressive IN
come tax. Under the plan submitted by
PRESIDENT John j. Hopper to the PreSl-
dent. the Federal Government IT Is as
serted. could secure at least $3DOOONO
by a rapidly progressive scale of rates.
This would he about n third of the
money needed for the Government. II
the postal service. which Is substantially
self-sustaining. is left out of considera-
ton.
Income Tax Plans.
Many suggestions as to the income
tax are made. One of them is that the
income from investments should be
taxed at a higher rate than currently
earned income. 1t is pointed out that O
person receiving 5000 net taxable in
come from mortgages can much better
afford to pay a higher rate of taxation
than a person receiving the same income
from professional services or business
Enterprises.
AS to the argument that the rapidly
progressive income tax Is cOnfiscatory
st is pointed out that there Is hardly a
person in the United States receiving
O net taxable income in excess of $lOO.UOC
who earns that sum by his eXertions
and brains alone.
The income tax problem is receiving
keen attention. The sentiment is
stronger than it was that large fortunes
are likely to have to bear considerably
more tax than they do now.
