GOVERNMENT WILL

500, 200, 900 in Taxes An
nually To Be Collected as
Result of Increase.

WASHINGTON, Aug. L. (By the AS
ISOLATED Press. )-Increased revenues,
officially estimated at 500 O0O, 900 an
pually will accrue 10 the treasury as
result OF the advance In transportation
rates allowed the railroads. The added
income for the government officials
said, would be derived from increased
transportation taxes, which are paid by
the public, as well as through opera
ton Of the income and excise pro-
visions OF the revenue laws.
Transportation taxes for the fiscal
year ending June 80 aggregated approx
imately $751; 900. This sum was
I2ight charges, amounting to $685.
1000, the per cent tax on passen-
ger tickets supplying 800, 900 and
the s per cent tax on Pullman charges

Should railroad traffic continue at its
3 present volume, all or these amounts
WOULD be increased corTespondingly with
tie advance permitted by the interstate
Commerce commission in its rate de-
0lBion last Saturday. On this basis Of
nue. calculate the additional taxes will
aggregate $3S.550,000 on freight, SIS
200 900 on passenger and $3,500,000 on
Pullman charges.
Another course of revenue would be
from income taxes levied against the
tives expect many of the carriers to earn
sufficiently large returns under the new
rates to compel the payment of income
taxes for the first time since pre-war
days. 1t is from this source that the
treasury expects to obtain a large por-
ton of the remaining $40,000,000 of its
$100, 100000 estimate. Officials placed
the amount from income taxes con-
servativeiy at $40, 900, 900 year.
The wage award of $500, 100000 year,
one OF the causes for a rate advance,
will also result in producing return

the railroad employees within jurisdic-
ton Of the income tax laws. Amounts
levied OF most of the workers will be
small, but it was pointed out the rail-
road labor army numbers more than
100000 persons. From this number
officials believed the taxes would ag-
gregate Substantial amount, probably
$40, 000, 900 or more"
Officials also are studying the indi-
rect effect the rate increase will have
on revenue production by the excise
and miscellaneous taxes. Practically
all OF the excise taxes are based on
percentage of the selling prices, as
the so-called luxury tax, and they re-
gard 1t as certain that more revenue
