Changes in Tax Bill Proposed
By the Democrats and the
"Agrarian Bloc
GENERAL WOOD IS RETIRED
President Asks Local Cooperation In
Relieving Unemployment Conditions
-Premiers BRAND and Lloyd
George May Attend the Great
Conference in Washington.
By EDWARD w. PIcKARD.

The peril that resides in Overwhelm-
ing majorities, always recognized by
politicians, is being demonstrated
again to the Republicans in congress
in the case of the tax bill. The senate
Republicans have been split up into
several groups that so far have been
unable to agree on the changes to be
made in the measure as passed by the
house. and the Democratic minority,
consequently, is hopeful of carrying
out it's program. The main features
of this are:
A higher surtax rate than 80 per
cent to affect incomes in excess or
100000.
A graduated corporation income tax
IN place of the proposed Is per cent
rate.
Retention OF che corporation capital
stock tax.
Repeal of the freight, passenger and
Pullman transportation taxes and OF
the $1,000 exemption allowed to cor
porations.
Decreased normal income tax. rates
on incomes of $4,000 or less.
Senators Mccormick, Capper, Len
root and others of the so called
agrarian bloc, together with a number
of other Republicans, have been work
ing hard to devise program that Will
be acceptable to majority OF the
senate. and the one they have drawn
ND tentatively includes the following
changes:
A graduated corporation income
tax instead of flat tax as a substi-
tute for the excess profits tax.
Further reduction in the lower sur
tax rates on individual incomes, but
an increase from the 80 per cent maxi
mum in the bill to so per cent, which
represents a compromise between the
proposed maximum and the rate of
65 per cent present law.
Retention of the corporation cap
ital stock tax which is repealed in the
senate committee bill.
An increase in the higher rates of
estate taxes.
Repeal of the taxes on freight, pas
senger, and express transportation.
Senator Smoot of Utah and few
others are advocating 3 per cent
production or manufacturers sales
tax, but the group above mentioned
is opposed to this. and so is Repre-
sentative Mondell, Republican leader
of the house, who. afrer conference
with President Harding, asserted there
was no chance that the house would
accept anything of the nature Of
general sales tax.

Last week the President let it be
BROWN that he wished congress to go
ahead with it's legislative program
without thought of an early adjourn
nrent. There had been some anxiety
iE Washington lest the deliberations
e. the conference on limitation of
ornaments might be disturbed by the
doings of congress if 1t were in session
after November il, hut Mr.. Harding
is not at all worried by this. The tax
bin is holding up all business in the
senate except the treaties and the
canal tolls bin. The treaties are to
be voted on October IA and the canal
measure comes to a vote on October
70. II President Harding's preference
Is considered. the tariff bin will be
taken up before adjournment. though
i.any members of congress seem will
.rg that it should go over to the next
1ession.

In view of a recent statement made by Attorney General Daughtery to the effect that he had no disposition to re- move any district attorney before the expiration of his term unless the good of the service demanded a change, the effort to crowd out Woo ten at this time is surprising.
