Increased Taxation Nee
6SS3rV.

Secretary McAdoo's position relative
to taxation for the coming year was
frankly and positively stated in his
letter to Majority Leader Kitchln of
the House of Representatives. He
wrote in part:
1--WE can not afford to rely upon ST.
600, 600, 600 only for taxation, because
We shall then nave to rely on raising
500, 600, 900, 900 by loans This would
be surrender to the policy Of high
interest rates and initiation, with all
their evil consequences
''If we are to preserve the financial
strength of the Nation we must do
sound and safe things, no matter
whether they hurt our pockets or in
voIve sacrifices Sacrifices of relative
ly insignificant sort compared with
those our soldiers and sailors are max
ing to save the life of the Nation.
THE sound thing to do unquestion.
ably is TO increase taxation, and the
increases should be determined upon
promptly and made effective al the
earliest possible moment"
The Secretary's recommendations
briefly are that one-third ESTIMATED
at $4,000, 900, COO of the cash expendi-
lures to be made during the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1919, be provid-
ed for by taxation, a real warprofits
tax at high rate upon all war profits
substantial increase in the amount
of normal income tax upon all So
called unearned incomes and heavy
taxation upon all Injuries.
