away all the bad taste of the be

thrills chasing up and down the

Laird struck out, Brainy Bower

took first upon being hit, after
which Kopf knocked out a neat
double which scored Browne and
Bower. Kopf scored on Nicora's
single, and by the time the side

for Newport, but Rowe crossed
home in the beginning of the third
through his second three sack

Brisk's threebase hit. Then the
score was even-much more so

No Sign of Let-Up.
There were no signs in the market
today of any let-uD in the campaign
for higher prices. which began in the
last week Of January. Many Of the
leaders of the list made new highs,
not only for the current movement,
but for the entire recovery of the last
six months. Similarly, after yester-
days slight check. the advance was
resumed in sterling exchange and ex-
tended to francs and lire as well.
The significance of the advance in
sterling from around $4.20 to about
$4.35 within less than a month. is,
first. that Great Britain has been in
creasingly successful in reducing her
obligations in foreign trade, and. Sec
ond, that the economic recovery of

ARTICLE Xxx.
In recent article ] referred to the
distinction between normal taxes and
surtaxes. In the preceding four ar
ticles I dealt specifically with the
matter of calculating normal taxes.
am now ready to discuss sur
taxes. These surtaxes are additional
taxes. They are taxes imposed on
q taxpayers net income in addition
to the primary or basic or so-called
normal taxes. The surtaX rates for
the year 1921 are quite different from
those for the year 1922. We are in
Ierested in these 1921 rates primarily
the calculation of the tax based upon
tn taxpayers net income for last
year and shown in the taxpayers
return, which must be filed in the
office OF the collector OF internal
revenue on or before next March Is.
One per cent on the net income
between $5,0O0.O1 and $4,000.
Two per cent on the net income
between $6,O00.01 and $4,000.
Three per cent on the net income
between ss.0O0.o1 and $4,000.
Four per cent on the net income
between $1O.0OO.01 and $4,000.
The rates increase, correspondingly,
by 1 per cent with every $4,000 in
crease of net income. SO that we find
the rate to be 4S per cent on the
net income between $9S,O00.0l and
100000. Thereafter the rates are as
follows:
Fifty-two per cent on the net in
come between $1O0.00O.01 and S15O,OOO.
Fifty-six per cent on the net in
come between S150.0O0.0l and 100000.
Sixty per cent on the net income
between $200.O00.01 and 100000.
Sixty-three per cent on the net in
come between s300.000.01 and 100000.
SiXty-four per cent on the net in
come between s500,000.01 and ST.
o0O. 900.
Sixty-five per cent on all amounts
of net income over $1.00O.OOO
