This Month

FROM me Irtbunes Washington Burean
WASHINGTON, July 3.-Approxi-
mately s90,000,0o0 in capital stock
taxes will be netted the government
on returns to be made by corporations
during July, according to an estimate
made to-day by Collector of Internal
Revenue Commissioner Blair. Blank
forms for filing returns have been
sent to the 325,O0o corporations which
paid this tax last year, and collectors
of Internal Revenue have been advised
to furnish to all others the proper
statements for reporting to the gov
ernment.
Returns are required of every do.
mestic corporation regardless of the
par value of it's capital stock and of
every foreign corporation irrespective
of the amount of capital employed in
this country in the transaction of it's
business. Certain corporations not or
ganized for profit are exempt from
capital stock tax. Corporations claim
ing exemption, however, are required
New-York tribune., 1921-07-04

to file returns setting forth their rea-
sons for such claims, accompanied by
evidence to support the contention.
The penalty for failure to file a re-
turn within the time prescribed is an
added assessment of rs per cent Of the
amount due, unless it is shown that
the failure was due to reasonable cause
and not to neglect. In addition to the
added assessment, a fine of not more
than 81, 900 is provided for failure to
make return on time. For wilful re-
fusal to make a return, wilful evasion
of the tax, wilful refusal to supply in

Keen Interest in U. S. Policy
In World Chamber of Commerce
American Delegates Impress Gathering,
Eager for Credit, That Financial Problems Are
Grave Here, Too - Sound Currency Is Urged

rnproductive expenditures; that agree
ment for the limitation Of armament
was most important ideal, and that
what the world wanted was real peace.
All this ia sound common sense, long
recognized by the majority of intelli-
gent business men, but consistently
neglected by politicians, and was heart
lily cheered by the congress, which
hoped the authoritative message might
reach the right ears and be marked
by the alleged statesmen who have
muddled Europe into chaos ever since
the armistice.
The delegation also gave their i'm
portant support to sound doctrine when
the question of currency defation and
a return to the pre-war gold standard
was raised. A resolution was proposed
advising that imitation and the unre-
strained output Of paper currency
should be progressively decreased. Pro-
fessor Cassell, the Swedish economist,
moved that progressively decreased"
be deleted, arguing that the only true
remedy was to restore stability. He
did not explain how stability could be
restored while governments We're still
printing great quantities of paper
money, indulging military ambitions
and while the balance--of trade of most
countries was still lopsided.
Felix Schuster, British banker,
strongly opposed Professor Cassell and
urged a gradual defation of currency
with the one object of a return to the
pre-war gold standard. That, he said,
was the policy of British bankers, and
he contended that stability of the for
eign exchanges and Of trade was i'm
possible until all currencies were regu-
lated on the basis Of the common gold
standard. Mr.. Schuster did not mean
however, to imply that countries like
New-York tribune., 1921-07-04

France, Italy and Germany should
necessarily try to return to the pre-
war par of exchange, though the Brit
ish financial community is strcngly de-
termined to secure this for the pound
sterling. Mr.. schusters view was en-
phatically endorsed by the American
delegation and also by the French and
helgian spokesmen, and Professor Cas-
sells amendment was defeated.
Obligations Must Be Respected
This was highly satisfactory, since
deletion of the words suggested would
certainly have encouraged mpecunious
governments on this side of the At
lantic to continue to finance them selves
by currency debasement. Americans
also deprecated action concerning Al
lied debts, making timely observation
regarding the necessity of respecting
obligations, and expressed apprehen-
sion lest efforts to sell German rep
aration bonds in America might break
the market for all European securities.
1 ms was uOuutleSS SOuuu counsel, DuC
it is very desirable that German bonds
should be distributed to private hands
and cease to be source of political
friction in the form of obligations be-
tween governments.
The failure of the French Banque In
dustrielle de Chine was not unexpected,
as it had long been known that it was
embarrassed owing to too expansive \
policy. 1t will have a bad effect in
China, since the government and public
there are much interested as creditors.
The British outlook has been greatly
improved by the end Of the coal strike
and of the cotton and engineering trade
disputes. Current government revenue
shows a big deficit, but chiefly in spe-
cial receipts, and budget estimates may
still be secured.

CcpyriEh&. 1891. New York Tribune Inc
LONDON, July AT the first meet
ing OF the international Chamber of
Commerce here last week paramount
Importance attached to the attitude of
the American delegation, in view Of
the enormous power exercised by Amer
lea owing to the prestige her creditor
position gives her over Europe and the
rest OF the civilized world. Lord Chan
cellor Berlenhead, in opening the
proceedings, extended a particularly
hearty welcome to the American dele
gates, and this was echoed by the as
sembled representatives, most of whom
are from countries who look to you for
aid during reconstruction.
The imposing size of the American
delegation indicated the keen interest
taken in international problems. and
the conference was much gratifed by
expressions Of eagerness to help in the
world reconstruction, owing to the i'm
portance to American prosperity of the
werld's recovery. and because of Amer
ica's obligations as a member of the
great family of humankind. However,
the congress, hungry for American
credit, received timely reminders that
America has her own difficulties and
that credit can only be given to Europe
through considerable sacrifice because
there is not enough money in America
to meet American needs alone
Excellent Doctrine by Americans
Excellent doctrine was preached by
these American missionaries when they
told the listening congress that govern

Navy Yard Jobs
Further Reductions Expect
ed This Month; Work on
Two Slrerdreadnoughis
Likely To Be Retarded

Three thousand employees at the
New York Navy Yard were DISCHARGED
last week as the result of retrench-
ment made necessary, according to
naval officers, because of restricted ap-
preparations. On Friday 1000 men
were dropped and on Saturday orders
were issued laying off approximately
900 others.
Further reductions in the force of
10000 maintained at the yard until
recently, are expected this month, and
a total of 1000 men will feel the effect
of Congressional economy, it is said.
Besides placing many mechanics out
of government work for an indefinite
period, the wholesale trimming will re-
tard construction on the two $4,000
ton uperdreadnoughts Indiana and

extent. While completion of the ships
may be delayed several months, they
say, the work will be speeded up with
the force available and every effort
made to launch the big sea warriors

The pruning was directed particularly
at the hull, machinery and ordnance
departments, and the workers dis
missed included foremen and assist
ant foremen, shipfitters, helpers, bolt
ers-up and riveters Two-thirds of the
1900 men working on the Indiana and
South Dakota were among those given
indefinite leaves of absence.
Many who had been employed repu-
larly at the yard for years were
caught in the reduction, which is said
to be the most sweeping in long time.
The monthly appropriation of one de-
partment was cut from 100000 to
100000. The workers retained also
will suffer from the curtailment, as the
bonus of 761s cents day was wiped
out July /.
