TREASURY WILL ALSO
GET HUNDRED MILLION
Extra Revenue As u Result OF the
Big Advance In Transportation
Rates.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 5.-Increas-
500. 100000 annually. will accrue to
the treasury as result OF the ad-
vance in transportation rates allowed
the railroads. The added income for
the government. officials said tonignt
would be derived from increased
transportation taxes which are paid
by the public as we'll as through op-
GRAFTON OF the income and excise pro
visions of the revenue laws
Transportation taxes for the fiscal
year ending June 30. aggregated ap-
proXimately l.O0u.OO0. This sum
was made up from the ; per cent tax
on freight charges amounting to
s125, 100000. the s per cent. tax on
passenger tickets supplying $780,.
100000 and the s per cent. tax on
Pullman charges producing $6,5OO,-
900.
Should railroad traffic continue at
its present volume. all OF these
amounts would be increased CORES
pondingly with the advance permit
ed by the Interstate Commerce COM
mission in its rate decision last Sat
urday. On this basis. officials OF the
bureau OF internal revenue calculate
the additional taxes will aggregate
$38,55O.OOO, on freight. $lS.7OO, 200
on passenger. and S3.50O.OOO on
Pullman charges.
Another source OF revenue would
be from income taxes levied against
the railroad corporations. Railroad
executives expect many OF the car
riers to earn sufficiently large re-
turns under the new rates to compel
the payment OF income taxes for the
first time since pre-war days. II is
from this source that the treasury
expects to obtain large portion of
the remaining S40.00O,O0O OF their
500 100000 estimate. Officials
