BIG INCOMES TO
Give U. S. half
That Is Tax Plan Of Ways and
Means Committee.
PROFITS COME NEXT ON LIST

$500, 100000 Per Year Will Be War
Taxes-Congress Committee Dis
cards Report of Sub Body and
Raises Rates on All Making $4,000
or More.
WASHINGTON, d. G. - Decision to
levy a new tax upon incomes so that
one-half of all incomes in excess of
100000 year will be taken by the
government for war purposes, was
reached by the ways and means COM
mittee \
The tax rate will be boosted all
along the line from incomes of $4G,-
900 a year upward.
By means of the income tax alone,
the committee estimates revenue Of
more than $7OO,0OO,00O year for the
nations war chest.
This was but one of the radical
changes in the proposed schedule of
war taxes made by the full committee,
when it met to receive from it's sub
committee the provisional draft Of the
bill
$1,eOO,OOO,0OO a Year.
AS agreed upon by the entire COM
mittee, the total amount estimated to
be raised by the revenue bill will be
$1,800.000,000 a year. This is $780,
100000 more year than the subcom-
mittee planned to produce.
The first session of the entire COM
mittee upon the report of it's subcom-
mittee was far from being harmonious.
Members of both parties resented the
assumption by the five men on the
subcommittee of the prerogative of
drawing a bill.
A motion was made to raise the in
come tax schedule, and this provoked
more wrathful discussion, members of
the subcommittee attempting to de-
fend their action and seeking to have
their report adopted. But the commit
tee, by vote of Is to z, turned down
the subcommittee report and threw it
into the discard.

How "Rubbers" Were Produced.

''Rubbers," as Americans have
named them, were the invention OF
Charles Goodyear, father of the man
who helped produce the Goodyear welt
machine. In 1888 it was found thai
India rubber, dissolved in turpentine
and mixed with lampblack, would give
waterproof surface to leather. But
the leather so treated was subject to
atmosphere changes, heat causing it to
melt and cold to crack. Mr.. Goodyear
mixed sulphur with the other com
binatiOn and produced rubber.

Defining the Heart.

The human heart, always mystery,
has become the subject of further spec
ulation, since a Supreme court justice
decided that nobody can plumb it's
depths" 1t has been described as
broad and hollow, and the jurist says,
in effect, that it is bottomless. One is
almost driven to the conclusion that,
as was go world before the first heart
began to beat, it is without form and
void"
