GIFTS TO Harvard
CUT INCOME TAXES

''Give to Harvard University and
cut down your income tax" This is
the slogan adopted today by can
vassers in the local campaign to aid
in raising a $4,000, 900 eIidOwmer.
fund for Harvard
Under the Hollis amendment to
the Federal revenue ac-, contribu-
{. ons to the endowment fund are de-
duCtable up 70 IS per cent OF an in
dtviGuaI2 net income FO= instErCe,

900 a year may contribute St.5O0 70
,he Harvard fund with the privilege
OF dCducting the amount from hts
taxable net income in figuring The
income subject TO taxation. This
contribution would therefore redure
a taxable income OF $4,000, allow
ing for a 5000 exemption for a mar
ried man, TO $500, and the tax wvUld
be reduced from $500 TO 425, q saving
OF Sl6a. In other words, Of The
AllboO contributed, the donor would
be giving 1885, and the remainder
OF the gift would be made up OF the
tax reduction Of &165.
Mig saving On Big Incomes.
With larger incomes the reduction
~ taxes Is much greater, due to the
fact that the reduction OF the taxable
income by the payment OF the rs per
cent gift 70 Harvard saves the tax
on higher rate Of supertax-
Tables showing exactly how much
each contributors income tax will
be reduced by his subscription to
Harvard have been prepared BY the
local committee in charge Of the
campaign and have been distributed
among the cauvasserB.
An effective appeal now being
made to Harvard men by the can
vassers is that each Harvard man
owes his alma mater money, regard
less Of whether he paid all Of his
college bills. The annual tuition fee
paid by a Harvard student covers
only a portion Of the expense OF edu-
eating that student for a year. The
difference between the figures has
been paid willingly by the uniVers-
ity; but now that the university is
in need Of financial aid, Harvard men
are being urged to psy back what
the institution advanced for their
education.
Tables showing exactly what mem
bers OF the various classes owe their
alma mater have been prepared and
are Obtainable at the headquarters
oA the local upalGuB room 40
Union Trust building. The figures
show that a student Of 1870 owes the
university 1882 for the year: a stu
dent OF 1880 owes S994; student Of
1890 owes SS76; a student Of 1900
owes SAL; q student Of 1910 owes
1857, and a student Of 1918 owes
S4O6.
Harvard did not hoard her as
sets. but gave the education" today
declared Walter r. TUckerman, chair
man OF the local executive commit
tee. These figures are not supposed
70 measure the value Of the edUca-
tion received; nor the amount any
slumuus should give. They do, how
ever, emphasize the fact that every
Harvard man still is indebted TO the
university hpancially for the educa-
tiOn he received"

CLAIM | MAJORITY
FOR AMENDMENT

be restricted to the same vote as the
United States in the league assembly
IN matters involving the two nations.
This probably viii be disposed Of in
day or so.
Cite Masaach uBettH Democrats
Republican leaders have no hope Of
obtaining enough votes to adopt
either amendment.
The prospects for adopting the
Johnson amendment to eQualiEe the
voting power OF the United States and
Great Britain in all questions coming
before the league assembly upon
which the two nations participate,
were thought by the Republican lead
ers today TO be enhanced by the at
utude taken by the Massachusetts,
Democratic convention at Boston Sat
urday, when, in its resolution urging
ratification Of the treaty, IL advO-
Gated an amendment along the line Of
that offered by the California Senator.
The action Of the Massachusetts,
Democrats, Il was said, would give
Senator Walsh OF that State ample
reason for voting for the amendment
which, he has stated privately, he
favOrs. With Mr.. Walsh's vote IN
support Of the amendment, its advo-
Gates count upon four Democratic
votes. Senator'S Reed and Gore have
already announced their intention Of
voting for IL, and there Is one more
Democrat, whose name has not been
divulged by Republican leaders, who
Is said to have assured them that
he will support 1t.
ThOmas or Shields.
This recruit from the Democratic
ranks Is said to be either Senator
Thomas Of Colorado or Senator
Shields Of Tennessee. The latter has
not announced his position on the
johnson amendment.
The Republicans are unable TO tell
just what support they will get from
the mild reservationists" on the
Johnson amendment, admitting that
three or four Of them may vote
against it. With the votes Of Senator
Walsh and the unnamed Democrat,
the Republicans figure that they can
carry the amendment by one vote.
This prOphesy is challenged by the
Democratic leaders, who say that the
vote will 90 their way.
The Johnson amendment, according
to the program now under way, will
be reached next week, and after that
will come the fight on reservations.
Stands Against Committee.
Mr.. Hitchcock declared that the
Administration leaders were not con-
sidering any compromise on the res
ervations advocated by the majority
Of the Foreign Relations Committee.
The only program they would con-
slider at this time, he said. would be
interpretative reservations, such as
the President has Indicated he would
not oppose.
Administration leaders interpreted
the failure OF the Massachusetts, Re
publicans TO approve the amendment
program OF the Republican leaders,
headed by Mr.. Lodge, as q rebuke to
the latter.
