HEAVY SURTAX PLACED
ON UNEARNED INCOMES
House Committee Adopts McAdoo's
Suggestion-Tax on Earned In
comes Put at 10 Per Cent.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE recon-
mendation of Secretary McAdoo that
heavier taxes be imposed upon I'M
earned incomes than upon salaries or
wages in return for labor was adopted
on Monday by the ways and means
committee.
The normal tax on earned incomes
Of over $4,000 was fixed at 10 per cent,
an increase of 6 per cent over the pres
ent law, and the unearned income nor
NAL tax was established at ID per cent.
Below $4,000 the normal rate is put at
per cent.
There was great opposition to what
should be considered an unearned in
come, but finally this definition was
agreed upon:
THAT portion of net income derived
from dividends on preferred stocks,
from interest. rentals, royalties and
annuities."
The committee changed the section
previously adopted providing for the
payment of income taxes by individu-
ais and corporations in installments.
While the committee has not en-
tirely completed the section dealing
with incomes, Mr.. Kitchin said that
the exemptions will remain unchanged,
at $1,000 and $4,000 for single and mar
ried persons respectively, with 5000 ad-
ditiOnal for each child under eighteen
years The normal rate on the first
$4,000 Of taxable income is per cent,
and after that the rate goes up to 10
per cent for earned incomes and IS
per cent for unearned incomes, with
these schedules of surtaxes:

Another man was caught in the

He is Ambrose McGlenn, a civil

ORCHESTRA IN
FINE PROGRAM
Samuel Gardner, Violin Soloist,
Pleases at Concert Given Before
Small House in Moline.

The Moline theatre was not as well
filled last evening as it should have
been on the first appearance of the
season in that city of the Tri-City
Symphony orchestra, Ludwig Becker
directing. The program presented for
the evening was unusually tuneful
and pleasing and the audience should
have been more representative of that
city The artist-soloist of the evening
was Samuel Gardner, young Rus
sian violinist from New York, who
more than lived up to his reputation
as a player He played the three
movements of the Mendelssohn con-
certo and Rondo capriccioso by
Saint Saens, responding to the en-
thusiastic applause of the audience
with two short encore numbers. His
tone is true, smooth and musical.
though not as big as that Of more ma
ture players. He has temperament
and good musical taste.
Teh orchestra played in its usual
splendid manner much to the real de-
light of the audience. The numbers
included the Weber Oberon overture
selections from the Jupiter" SYM
phony by Mozart; Scenes du Ballet
by Glazounow; "Old Folks at Home.
arranged by Carl Busch; prelude in
G minor by Rachmaninoff and the
waltz blue Danube" by Strauss. De-
/ spite the fact that Director Becker
hurried the orchestra through the pro-
gram it was late when the last mum.
Der was completed, a rather common
fault with the orchestra concerts.
Each successive appearance of the
orchestra shows excellent progress or
the part of the organization and the
people of the tri-cities are beginning
to realize that they have an orchestra
of more than ordinary merit.

MONMOUTH CENT
is NO DERN FOOL

These gosh dinged city slckers can't
fool this bird. No, Stree!
Clifford Cornelius GAIA, pronounced
with the full accent on the nasal
twang, who eats, works and sleeps at
Monmouth, ILL.,, arrived in Rock Island
yesterday afternoon to partake of
pleasures here that were not afforded
in dry town.
About 10 o'clock last night GAIA
passed the Sanitary cafe, PLY Fourth
avenue. "A good place to dine,"
thought he. In the cafe GAIA met two
genial souls-Clyde Robertson. Des
Moines, Iowa, and NJ. c. Gift, Boone,
Iowa. There was also woman in the
plOt-Miss Emma Rosabelle Heath
cote, also of Des Moines.
AS Gaza's three newly made friends
were about to sup, too, he invited them
to sit at his table-money was small
matter with him, and just to show
them he was a good fellow, he would
foot the bill. They talked as they ate
and soon good old-time party was in
progress Presently the meal was
completed. GAIA leaned back in his
chair and smacked Ms lips compla-
Gently Some mealo" he suggested
They assented.
Then GAIA dug deeply in his spa
cious pockets Horrors. He had not
enough money to pay for the entire
order. Robertson, Gift and Miss
Heathcote looked blankly at each 9TH
er. Then Robertson spied a nice,
shiny gold watch chain dangling from
Gaza's vest pocket
"Oh. that's all right" said Robert
SON "Ill let you have a couple of
dollars if you give me that chain for
security" The chain was filled with
gold nuggets and valued at $25.
All Three Fined.
GAIA was in predicament He had
not enough change to settle the bill
so he let Robertson extract the chain
and cheap watch from his vest
GAIA then quietly left the cafe and
hurried down the street. Meeting Pa
trolman Berry he took the minion OF
the law back with him and had all
three placed under arrest GAIA testi-
fed against his newly made friends in
police court today. A charge of lar
ceny could not be placed against Rob-
ertson, so Magistrate Smith fined all
three $40 and costs each on disorderly
conduct charges.
GAIA strutted out Of the station
satisfied that he was the wise guy.
