Suggestion that sold storage foods

Differ on New
Taxation Plan.
In evolving new taxation plan
for raising revenue to meet the GER
tificates OF indebtedness, however.
much trouble is expected in getting
Republicans and Democrats together.
The first big question is what
amount Of revenue shall be raised by
immediate taxation. The generally
accepted plan has been to divide
equally the cost of the first year Of
the war. roughly estimated at from
$3,75O,000.O00 to $4,000,000,000,
between bonds and taxes. but the
President has expressed himself as
DESTROYS of placing as much of the
burden on the present generation as
possible, and some members of Con-
gress are advocating the raising Of
rs per cent of the first year needs
by taxation. far
Administration and congressional
leaders generally are determined that
the tax shall not be of class char
acter regardless of the amount. His
tory, he said, shall not designate this
as either a poor or rich mans war.
House financial authorities are
considering proposals to raise new
revenue on increased income and
stamp taxes and taxes of excess pro-
fits. inheritances, distilled liquors
and beers, cigars and tobacco. amuse-
ment places, the postal service. soft
drinks and newspaper, billboard and
other advertising. ,UN 1857.
