WOMAN DRIVER :. KILLS GIRL OF 5
Ambulance Runs Into Group of Playing Children With
 Disastrous Result.

New York, July 26-An ambulance of the Women's Ambulance Corps, driven by Miss Marguerite Scarbor- ough of No. 51 St. Johns Place, Brooklyn, ran upon the sidewalk of Glenmore Avenue last evening and in- to a group of playing children. It killed Frances BenderZino of No. 465 Glenmore Avenue, who yesterday was celebrating her fifth birthday. Sev- eral other children were hurt.
 Miss Scarborough, whose fathar is William A. Scarhorough, a merchant at No. 13 Harrison St., Brooklyn, was on duty as a volunteer driver at the Bradford Street Hospital last night She is about twenty.
 When a call came for the removal of patient to the hospital from No 3S5 Alabama avenue, Miss Scarbor- | ough took the wheel of the vehicle and Ambulance Surgeon Moore of the hospital jumped in behind. They l went through Bradford street swiftly. The ambulance swung from Brad | ford street east on Glenmore Avenue to find a big motor truck looming 1T l front.

 Felix Frankfurter, assistant to the Secretary of Labor and chairman of the War Labor Policies Board. said that with the working out of the se- lective service act the administration of the war labor supplying program will stand as the supreme monument of what voluntary cooperation can accomplish in a democracy. "The vol untary cooperation of a free peo- pie is the greatest force behind the war labor recruiting program he said.
 Appreciation by the country of the i patriotism of its wage earners was urged by Charles P.

HIGHER TAX ON
 EXCESS PROFITS
May Range As Much As 30 Per Cent. on Corporation
 Net Incomes.

Washington, July 26-A new sys- tenn of excess profits taxes to yield | $1,690, 0,000,0O0 revenue and taking 30, ] 50 and 80 per cent. of the net increase 1 of corporations, after allowing specific | exemptions, was tentatively agreed upon by the Ways and Means com mittee yesterday. Every corporation will be entitled to exemption of $2,0O0
 plus at least 10 per cent. of the in- vested capital. The rates in detail ] are:
 Thirty per cent. of all net incomes in excess of exemption of 10 per cent.
 and not in excess of 20 per cent; 50
 per cent. of the net income in excess
 of 20 per cent. and not in excess of
 25 per cent, and 80 per cent. of the
 net income in excess of 25 per cent.
 Alternative plans were considered l by the committee, each with specific
 exemption of $2,O00. One proposal
 was to take 80 per cent. of all net in
 come in excess of the exemption of 10 | per cent. of the invested capital. This
 would yield $2,40O,000. Another was
 to take 40 per cent. of all net income
 in excess of 10 per cent. and not in
 excess of 20 per cent, and 80 per
 cent. of all net income in excess of 20 per cent.
 A third plan was to take 50 to 80
 per cent. on the difference between
 the average per cent. of profits for the
 best four of the six years from 1911
 to 1916, to be selected by the corpora tion, and the profits for the taxable year, with 10 per cent. deducted on
 the capital put in since 1916. The
 rates under the existing tax run from
 20 to 60 per cent.
 Corporations which had big earn
 ings in the pre-war period as well as since the war began, but, without
 great change in invested capital, such
 as Standard Oil, the Steel Trust the Packers Trust, etc., must now pay 80 per cent. of their present profits, un- der the present law, members of the
 committee learned, some of the real war profits escaped through the method employed of finding the differ ence in pre-war and war profits. Another feature of the new system is that it reveals the effect of price, a1 fixing agreements on prof1teering. The s estimated yield of $1,69O, 100000 ir T was returned under the existing law 3 The new rates were made in the be- H lief that profits for 1918 would be a about the same as in 1916.
 This reduced return from profits it was admitted by leaders today z may force the committee to consider # some rate like the flat 80 per cent
 proposed, which would yield $70O, 000,O 900 more from profits than thu & committee plans to take.
 The committee will find difficult. 5 in raising the full s8,000,0 100000 ask D ed by Secretary McAdoo, of whicl . $6,OOO. 100000 was expected from in o comes and profits taxes and S2,0O0,
 000,00 on luXuries and non-essen @ tials. Up to date provision has beel f made tentatively for about $4,658, d 0O0.0O0, with s1O0, 100000 on inher l. itances, $1.69O, O,000,00O on profits an n $2,S6S, 100000 on incomes. Thi n leaves the committee about $1,5O0, It 0O0,000 short.
