WAR PROFITS
TAX RECEIVES
new IMPETUS
Senators Demand Amend
ments to War Tax Bill to
Soak Millionaires.

Washington, Aug. 20.-Widespread
ding to the total Of the war tax bill
fits and income surtaxes received new
impetus today with the opening Of the
third week Of debate.
Speeches advocating such increases
were made by Senators johnson of
California, Hollis Of New Hampshire,
and Jones Of New Mexico. Tomorrow
Senator La Toilette is expected to
make his address in favor of levying
virtually all war taxes upon incomes
and war profits. Senator King is pre-
pairing a substitute bill providing
much higher rates on these sources.
No action was taken by the senate
during the day and little progress was
made On the bill. After Senator La
|Follette's speech, however, it is
planned to proceed with actual consid-
GRAFTON Of the income and war profits
sections. Leaders have telegraphed all
absentees to be present tomorrow,
though they do not expect passage of
the bill before next week.
In advocating greater federal levies
on war profits and m~illionaires' in
comes, Senator Johnson said American
youth had been, conscripted and that
swollen fortunes COINED from the
blood Of the nation" also should be
drafted. Fl 9 recommended that the
government take 80 per cent Of war
prof1ts-as Great Britain does-and
half of millionaires' incomes.
Hollis Believes so Per Cent Limit.
Senator Hollis, supporting the La
Follette-Gore-Thomas minority report
of the finance committee for higher
rates on incomes and profits, also ad-
vocated taking 80 to 90 per cent OF
war profits, but expressed the opinion
that the senate could not be induced
to levy over SO per cent. The present
bill is designed to assess about 26 per
cent.
Senator La Toilette introduced two
amendments to the income tax section
on behalf of the minority. One pro
posed an increase on surfaces on in
comes between 5000 and SAT, and
g maximum Of 33 per cent on all over
$4,000. An alternative amendment
would have the principal surtaxes ap-
ply to Incomes of from $4,000 to
S17.6O0, with a maximum of SO pei
cent on those over the latter figure.
Senator New of Indiana also intro.
duced an amendment proposing that
