OF German economists. Meanwhile the
Government has agreed to make re-
nate of the full amount of this 26 per
cent tax to manufacturers.
The National Economic Parliament Is
holding long debates on the question OF
International taxation. Industry would
prefer a so per cent tax on the gross
German product TO the proposal or the
Government 20 levy a tax OF 80 per cent
and an additional progressive income
tax.
The so-called community tax idea
furthered by George Bernhard is gaining
popularity among manufacturers Ths
scheme provides for the grouping OF
similar industries and the farming out
of a specific tax sum which they wouid
collect after their own methods without
interference from Government tax col
lectors. The advantages OF this scheme,
its proponents say are that there would
be less bureaucratic machinery necee-
sary and that industries would be m1<e
willing 20 make full payment of taxes
If they themselves did the collecting than
If the payment was made under com
pulsion.
The opposition TO the scheme Is based
largely on theoretical grounds, 1t being
asserted that such a method of collecting
taxes would serve to disintegrate the
State and give to big industries pro
portionate power and freedom to estao-
lish monopoly prices.

Berlin, June 2s.
Efforts of the German Government
to introduce an extensive indirect
taxation bill affecting sugar, tobacco
and alcohol before the summer ad-
journment of the Reichstag have
failed owing to the opposition of the
Socialist parties, who insist on first
seeing the Governments programme
for taxing capital. This stand was
taken by the Socialists also because
they wish to bring about a new
Reichstag election before their party
caucus has approved the new and un-
popular indirect taxes.
The parties Of the extreme right also
are using di'atory tactics against the
Wirth Cabinet on the theory that
should the Chancellor fail to obtain
Upper Silesian concessions from the
Allies his position would be untenable.
The Conservatives believe that should
the Allies keep the penalties in force
in the occupied regions the German
people would insist on having a more
nationalistic Cabinet.
Although the Reichstag itself at the
end of this week will adjourn until
September. the new taxation commission
Of the Reiohstag. composed of represen-
tatives of all parties. sits permanently.
The Government probably will present
the full taxation programme for con-
alteration during the early part of July.
AS ting the tendencies of the
present Government it must be remem-
bered that Chancellor Wirth also is Min
lister of Finance. Corporations and in
dustries which have prospered through
low taxation and low priced coal now
realize they must shoulder their share
OF the new burden, and, as DR.. Karl
Helferich. formerly Finance Minister
urges. must enter the arena and take ar
active part in the discussion and the
decisions.
Opposition to the tax of 26 per cent
of exports for the reparatons account
is based now not so much because 1t is
regarded as intolerable for German in.
