FOR HEAVIER TAX
California Senator Demands Burden
On War Profits.

Washington. Aug. 2O.-Demanding
a higher war profits tax in the re-
venue bill, Senator johnson this after
noon told the senate those who coin
the blood of war are best able to pay
the debt of war"
The Californian predicted that if the
United States goes on appropriating
money at the present rate, it's war
debt would exceed, by the end of next
year that contracted by any other ma
ton.
To the committee argument that war
profits ought not be taxed so heavily
as to drain them at one effort. john
son replied:
rs it wise craftsmanship to look to
the time when there will be no war
profits and expect then to tax them :?
We have got to do as Great Britain
is doing by taking the larger part of
these profits instead of a mere trifle."
Johnson asked the senate to SHOW
the same enthusiasm in conscripting
wealthy that was shown when the
youth was drafted
Senator La Toilette, who was to
have begun today his fight on the
war profits and Income tax provisions
of the bill announced he would not be
ready until tomorrow.
