Republican A. P. Leased Wlre1

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-Provost Marshal General Crowder has been planning the enlargement of local draft boards wherever necessary in order that some of the men who register next Thursday may be inducted into mili- tary service in October
 General Crowder has telegraphed draft executives in every state asking if an increase in the personnel would expedite work. Additional registrars have already been authorized for Sep tember F.
 Expedite Exemption Claims Employers or dependents of regis tered men who. for patriotic reasons. may object to entering a claim for de- . ferred classification on the grounds of dependency or the nature of their oc- cupation, will expedite proceedings and prevent injustice by making the eX- emption claims for the men, it was said today at the provost marshal general S office. There is form for such claims i in the questionnaire, it was pointed out, and local boards will find their duties more complicated if registrants entitled to exemption do not claim it

 EVER IMPOSED

tCOnIlnueu dSc OuCJ than they were in the pre- war years.
 Business Profits Increase
 Business in the three years prior to 1914 had profits estimated at four bil- lion dollars. In 1915 they had profits of six billion dollars. In 1916 they had profits of more than eight billion dol lars. In 1917 after paying all the war taxes they still had profits 60 per cent greater than they had in the days of peace, and American business after paying all the taxes levied by this bill, big as they may be, hard as they may be, will still have 3hore than eight billion dollars more that it had be- fore the war and billion and half with which to pay dividends"
 Mr. Ktichin said the time might come when high consumption taxes would be necessary and if it ever did come the American people would be ready to give up all profits and all incomes over living expenses to win the war.
 Chairman Simmons of the senate if nance committee, sat in the house throughout MT. Kitchin's speech list ening attentively.
 Explains Income Tax
 Attendance of representatives dwin- dled as Mr. Kitchin proceeded. In talk | ing up the bill by sections. the chair man explained the income tax, and re- plying to questions said a married member of congress would pay $47( out of his salary of s7,500.
 How about single member?' asked Representative Denison of Hi nois.
 For being unmarried you must pay s550," rejoined MT. Kitchin.
 Greater surtaxes on income were no provided by the bill, MT. Kitchin sait in answer to Representative Moore O Pennsylvania, because. higher rates the maximum now being 65 per cen on incomes of s5.000 O0O-rhight caus, the purchase of tax free securities ant also adversely affect the market fo government bonds.
