REVENUE LAW To
RELIEVE TAX ON
SMALL INCOMES

Washington, d. G., Dec 22.-Al-
though congress has shown disincli-
nation to take up revenue legislation
in the near future, as urged by Pres
ident Wilson, there will soon be re-
ductlon, nevertheless, in the amount
of federal taxes paid by the person
of average income. With the arrival
OF the year 1920 lower schedules VIII
become effective because of a spe
c,fic proviso in the current law
passed by the last democrltic con
gress-that the heavy war taxes of
1918, insofar as they relate to the
man of moderate income, shall not
be applied in 1920. In consequence,
the income tax bill of probably sew
enty-five per cent of federal ltax pay
ers will be materially cut next year.
When the present revenue law was
before the senate finance committee,
after passage by THE house, 1t became
apparent the war was nearing its
end and the armistice was signed be-
fore final action on the bill. The
senate committee at THAT time was in
control of the democrats. 1t was
proposed by republican members of
the committee tilat the same sche-
dule of rates be made to apply in
1920 as in 1919. The republicans
said adjustments for the year 1920
might be made later.
Democratic members Of the com
mittee finally united and forced
through a proviso that lower taxes
should go into effect at the begin
ming Of 1920. They insisted that
congress should settle the question
TOR at elast two years land give the
tax payer the bepefit Of the end OF
hhe war and a partial lifting of the
burdens of taxation.
If this action had not been taken
the higher rates of the period imne-
diately following the war would have
extended into 1920 and cost the tax
payers of the United States approx
mately two billion dollars additional.
The senate voted for grading down
OF the war schedules and the house
accepted the proyiso.
The notifications for 1920 are
mainly of assistance to the man with
the modest income. These modiiica-
tions reduce by one-third the normal
tax on incomes, but leave the sur
taxes, which apply to the ewalthy,
the same as heretofore. Even with
out further legislation, therefore, the
average tax payer will have sub
s1antial reduction in his tax bill.
The tax to be collected on the first
$4,000 above the exemption will here
after be only four per cent, instead
os six per cent. 1t is estimated that
seventy-five per cent of income tax
payers are subject only to the nor
nal tax; the sur-taxes applying TO
the smaller percentage of big in
comes.
There will be other reductions in
the nations tax bill due to the insis-
taace of democrats of the senate
more than year ago that war bur
dens be removed as rapidly as pos
sible and that the war revenue bill
should include lower taxes for 1920.
Already there has been put into
effect the reduction in the war tax
en- first class postage. This war tax,
which amounts to one cent on each
leteer. was lifted last July and the
two-cent stamp restored.
