Wants u. S. Taxes .a'
Cut Billion a Year

Recommendation for radical
REVISION of the federal tax laws,
calling for a curtailment of more
than one billion dollars a year, were
made public yesterday by the tax
commission of The National Indus
trial Conference Board.
The report expressing the opinion
of only the committeeman them
selves, will be submitted as a basis
for discussion of the Third National
Industrial Tax Conference, which
will convene in New York January
21-22.
The report of the commission pre-
sents the following recommendations
which would reduce federal revenue !:
Repeal of the excess profit tax
which would diminish the federal
taxes to the extent of $900,000,00O
per anngm.
Reduction of surtax rates, which
would entail a loss of $200,OOO,OOO
annually. A provision that business
losses for any year should be de-
ductible from the income derived
during the succeeding year, or the
preceding year if the income Of the
succeeding year is insufficient,
which would curtAil taxes $50,O00,-
900 yearly.
The commission opposed sale o,
turnover tax in the recommendation
for remedial changes. These changes

sion declored in its report that the
proposal for an excise tax on the
privilege of holding land and nat
ural resources is unsound.

stand behind any tax system aimed
to work permanent public improve

1t is now possible for an Ameri-

at 8 o'clock and to be sorting his
mail at t1:30 in his office in London
while at $50 p. m. the same day he
may be back in the French capital

Since the air expresses were insti-
tuted more than 5000 travellers have
made the aerial trip between the
two capitals, large majority of
them being Americans.
Another company announces that
beginning May 1 ) it will institute
regular twice daily service to the

their hotels in Paris in the morning

A Bomb in Bond Issue
The coupons for the interest pay
able semi-annually should have been
twenty in number, and somebody
looking them over counted them and
found that each bond had forty-two
interest-bearing coupons attached,
running serially from July, 1886, to
January, 1906. They voted to de-
stroy all the bonds and coupons and
to buy a new set at cost not to
exceed $50. The bonds had been
signed for seven months, and pro-
vided for the county to pay $140O
more interest than was to be earned
by the capital invested.
The board frs, counted all the
bonds, forty in number, for $500
each, with forty-two signed coupons
attached to each. Then they de-
stroyed them all, and made the rec
ord to show that each and every of
the forty bonds and each of the
1880 signed coupons had been de-
stroyed. They signed the record and
then ordered that new and correct
bonds be issued and signed, with
S14 coupons attached.
Dynamite in Meeting
When the board had completed
this job of correcting the mistake of
$140O, somebody remembered that
the board had arranged for an is
sue of $4,000 worth of bonds long
before that, for funding (paying) the
county Indebtedness, and had all
ready delivered them to the county
treasurer to be sold, and that they
too might have a similar mistake in
them. So they sent for the treas
urer to bring the bonds and lay
them before the board, which was
done. They found that the issue
consisted of 40 bonds for $500 |
each, and the bonds held thirty-siy |
attached for $40 each, max |
ing a total of $4,000 more than
should have been delivered to meet |
The obligation. This whole trans
