Insurance TAX
TO CAUSE FIGHT
Mutual Companies TO Resist
Attempt to Levy on
Excess Profits
PENN OFFICERS SAY
1T UNJUST BURDEN

Millions Of dollaus will be involved In
a fight which mutual life insurance
companies all over the United states
will wage against any attempt on the
part Of the Government, under the war
revenue act, to collect excess profits
taxes from them, II the attitude Of the
Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company,
Of Philadelphia. n emuated by other
concerns of the sano kind.
That the Penn Mutual will make a
contest was indicated yesterday by J..
h. Passmore. lice-president Of the com
pany, when he said in the course OF
an interview
"In times such as these We all want
TO pay our proper share of taxes, but
We do not want TO encourage an inter
probation Of the law which would place
an unjust burden on companies Of tins
kind. We have no capital stock and no
profits. The company is operated sole
ly for the benefit Of its members.
eve admit our liability TO the ? per
cent. income tax under the law Of 1916,
TO the per cent. income tax under this
years war revenue law, to 80 cents per
81 600 on our $l02OOO,O00 annual bust
ness and TO the host of stamp taxds on
various sorts of papers, such as assign
ment and traIpfers. Beyond that we
do not believe we should be taxed.
That tho Government will call upon
such companies for the 3 per cent. ad-
ditional tax assessed upon business
having no capital or only nominal capi-
tai virtually is certain. according to
students Of the law who are familiar
with the workings Of the law Of 1916
When this Is done there will be no al
tentative for the companies but TO pay
the tax. They then may enter suit
against the collector Of internal reve-
nue. to whom II was paid to recover the
amount.
In the case of the Penn Mutual, bas-
ing the estimate ON the income tax paid
last year. Il will mean a saving of
100000 a year to escape the excess
profits tax. The company paid S25 900
income tax last year. which was . per
cent. of the taxable amount. 1t will
pay this wear in addition per cent.
war-income tax. or $4,000. These two
taxU total $4,000. The per cent.
excess-pIohts tax under this ultimate,
would be 100000 more. or a total OF
/ sl75,0OO.
