NEW YORK BUSINESS
MEN AID MOVEMENT

The fight being waged by the busi-
ness interests of this city. under the
leadership Of the Chamber OF Com
merce, against the proposed tax on
munitions has been taken up by a
number of prominent business men of
New York. United States Senator
OGorman has been appealed to and
asked 10 make a stand against this
proportion which Wilmington feels
will work hardship on thousands of
wage-earnors in this community.
After a conference in New York a
Telegram. signed by several men
prominent i'm the business and 6nan-
cial life of that city. was sent TO Sen
ator O'Gorman calling his attention
to the pending bill. declaring il to be
unconstitutional. being retroactive,
discriminatory and unfair.
There is a feeling that the prOpOs-
ed rate Of taxation on explosives con-
Germs will be made much lower than
in the original bill.
In some quarters an impression
prevails that the pending revenue bill
may be abandoned by Democratic
leaders at Washington. and new bills
may be substituted providing for q
graduated tax on the earnings Of all
corporations and an increased tax on
incomes. with lower exemption.
Such a scheme has been advocated by
some of the Democratic leaders. Il
was said today.
