Washington.-An entirely new basis
for levyipg national taxes with exemp-
tion on personal incomes substantially
raised, has been submitted to the Sen
ate finance committee by G. B. Clark
of Detroit, who said he spoke for the
National Retail Dry Goods Association,
the National Association of Retail
Clothiers, the National Retail Shoe
Dealers Association and the National
Garment Retailers Association. Con-
cretely the plan would put all incomes
into three classes, and they with the
aid of the sales tax would carry practi-
cally the entire revenue burdens. Mr..
Clark proposed raising the exemptions
on personal incomes from the present
$1,000 for single persons to $500 and
from $1,000 for married persons to
$1,000 with an additional $500 exemp-
ton for such child or dependent in.
stead of the present 5000. The witness
also would lower the higher rates on
income surtaxes.

One night after an unusually long
sojourn near his favorite bar, Mr..
Hogg navigated painfully home and at
last reached his bedroom. Mrs. Hogg
was waiting for him.
"Hirbutus," she said, after swift
appraisal Of his condition, II am

"Yes, m'dear," replied the prodigal,
meekly, but even at that have the
advantage over you. You are a Hogg
by name, but YOU became Hogg by
