BEGINS TAX REVISION
Excess Profits Tax Big Problem
for House.
Estimated Returns From Corporations
This Fiscal Year Is
SLIPS, 0oo, 900.

Washington, Aug. 9.-The real work
begun by Republicans of the ways
and means committee with the expec-
tation that they would have the new
bill ready for the house next week.
The big problem was said to be
how to cut present taxes. There are
almost as many views as members
of the committee.
One point of difference is the trans
portation tax. Some favor it's imme-
date repeal, while others would fol-
low the treasury suggestion that one
half be cut now and the remainder
next year.
Treasury suggestions for new taxes,
except possibly an increased levy on
tobacco products, appears to have few
supporters. It had been explained
that to revise or repeal 'burdensome"
taxes might necessitate new levies.
Another question is whether the ex-
cess profits tax is to be repealed as
of last January | or next January j.
Irrespective of the effective date of
the excess profits repeal and the sub
stitution of an additional five per cent
tax on corporations will pay approxi-
mately S150,0O0000 less during the
next fiscal year
Allowing for the expected shrink
age in corporation returns as q re-
suit of business depression, treasury
officials have figured that the corpora
tions would pay 100000, 900 in the
fiscal year under the present law and
approximately s750,000,0o0 under the
proposed revision.
With the revision effective as of
last January l, 1t is estimated that
the return would be S74S,0O0, 900. all
as income tax, and with ii effective
as of next January II would be S754,-
100000, of which 1852, 100000 would
be income tax and $192,5O0,0O0 excess
profits tax.
The estimated returns from the cor
porations for this fiscal year is 81
125,000000. so that ii Is figured that
there will be natural shrinkage of
billion dollars.
