MAJORITY TAXATION
 PLAN CALLED VICIOUS
House Republicans Propose Indirect Tax to Raise Money to Pay
 Soldier Bonus

Washington, D. C.-Democratic mem bers of the House Ways and Means Committee will propose to the House that the money necessary to pay a soldier bonus be raised through the imposition of a tax upon war profits
 Announcement by, Republicans that the money would be raised through a tax of one-half of one per cent on sales but that this tax would be so applied that the consumer would actually pay h tax of from to 10 per cent and pos sibly in addition an added profit for the producers, brought the warning from Representative Henry T. Rainey, of Illinois, a Democratic member of the Ways and Means Committee, that Ee would make fight on the floor of the House for his plan to tax war profits.
 MT. Rainey says that no one will admit wishing to make money out of the war, but that the records show that 69,000 persons made three billions of dollars and that these 69,000 per sons had an income of more than $20,- 900 year each prior to the war. He proposes that the government take one-half of the profits above the $2O,- 900 made by these men during the war. In other words, if a man made $50, 900 during the war and 0,000 prior to the war, Rainey would take one-helf of the s10,000, or s5,000.>
 Defy "Steering Committee"
 Representative Rainey is assured the support of some Republicans who nave fought for the bonus and who have defed the Republican Steering Committees. "edict that there should not be bonus
 The Republicans propose that a tax of one-helf of one per cent shall be put upon each turnover" For instance, they propose that when an umbrella is sold, tax shall be paid by the pur. chaser equal to one-half of one per cent on the cost of the cloth, when sold by the producer to the manufatur- CT. The steel ribs, when manufactur. ed, would be taxed in like amount. The handle would be taxed, and so on, and then eventually the tax again would be applied to the finished product. So that instead of paying one-half. of one per cent, the consumer really would pay from 6 to per cent.
 The vicious feature about this tax is that it is another form of indirect tax, ation. The consumer would never know what the actual cost of produc tion was. so the manufacturer could add the one-half of one per cent tax and then add extra profit to that, and SC on down the line, so that the tax of or per cent not only would be pass ed along to the consumer, but in ad dition a profit for the manufacturer which would he e0lral to two or three times the tax. In other words the con. sumner not only would pay the one bil. lion or more dollars to the soldiers but might, under the Republican pro- posal, pay another billion or more to profiteers who would be encouraged to take advantage of this indirect tax
