Reasons Why the Excess Profits Tax
Should Be Abolished at Once.
By J. H. TREGO Sec'y-Treas Natl Assn of Credit Men,

There many reasons why the so-called excess
profits tax should be abolished One of the principal
is the inequalities that are evident. Under
the present system of taxing the earnings of corporate
investment, there has been relation between the
tax assessed against the income of the corporation
(Which income is the property of the stockholders)
and the income and ability to pay of the individual
stakeholder, to whom in reality the income belongs
and against whose income the is in reality assessed
Therefore the percentage Of tax paid bv the corpOra

NEW BASKETBALL RULES.

Significant changes in this years
basketball rules are as follows:
l. The end zone is done away
with. 1t is now an integral part Of
the basketball court. The rear
boundary line is now two feet back
OF the front surface of the blackboard.
This change was made to simplify the
court marking and to do away with
the confusion that arose in the ad-
ministration Of "held balls" and sout
Fof bounds" in this area.
q, A ball is declared held under
the basket, or in the space behind the
blackboard and between the. foul lines
will henceforth be thrown up on the
free throw line. This amendment
has been made to prevent the crowd
ing and jockeying which has become
habitual in connection with balls
thrown up close to the goal.
3. A player who has left the
game, except for disqualification for
four personal fouls or for other dis
qualification, may re-enter the game
once. This ruling will make it easier
for the team that is travelling with
small number Of substitutes.
4. In case Of injury, If substitu-
ton is made within one minute, a
slime out" shall not be charged.
This is inserted as an inducement for
substitutions to be made quickly SO
that the game will be speeded up.
S. A player who is standing still
when he receives the ball may start
step in any direction, but he must
dispose Of the ball before that foot
touches the floor. In other words,
in starting dribble the ball must
leave possession Of the player before
he has taken step.
s. A player who changes his pos
ition without appreciably advancing
the ball in any direction shall not be
considered as running with the ball.
2. The defensive player has no
right to place his hand upon the per-
son whom he is guarding in order to
keep more closely in touch with him
so as to be able to anticipate and
check the legitimate play Of his op-
ponent. Nor has he the right to
dance in front Of him in an effort to
get the ball first, but neither player
in such contingency has the right
to crowd the other away from the
direct line to the ball.
