BRITISH INCOME TAX ,
NEAR AMERICAN BASIS
Reduction From g to s. Shillings1
- Compared by Internal Rey-
enue Experts. !

: Reduction. of the British income tax
from 6 shillings on the pound to S
shillingss brings the tax levied by
Great Britain nearer the American
basis. according to comparisons. made
yesterday by internal revenue bureau
experts.
A comparison of the super tax rates
levied by Great Britain and the
United States will show, officials said,
that tho United States levies higher
rate of super tax on the large in
comes than Great Britain does. but a
comparison of the normal tax shows
that Great Britain levies a much
higher rate of normal income tax
and. the exemptions are much smaller.
Before the announcement of the
new British budget the normal tax in
force in Great Britain was shillings,
with reduced rates applicable where
incomes fell within certain prescribed
limits. No tax is imposed by the
British on incomes which do not ex-
coed f130. While between f130 and
$1,000 certain allowances may be
claimed similar to the personal ex-
emptions and credit for dependents
allowed by the federal income tax
law in the United States.
Reduced rates are charged on the
residue of the INCOME after allow
shillings 8 pence between $50 land
$500 up to s .shillings on fs,500 and
over.
The normal tax imposed by the
United States is at the rate Of per
cent on the first $4,000 taxable net
income and 8 per cent on all in ex-
cess of that amount, the taxable net
income being the net income less the
personal exemption and credit for
dependents.
Super tax is imposed by Great Bri-
tain on incomes exceeding f2.500, the
rate ranging from l shilling on every

Washington, July Workers
throughout the United States were
formally appealed to today by the
executive council of the American
Federation of Labor to actively sup
port in every way the striking rail
road workers.
The appeal went by unanimous
vote of the council to every labor
organization in the United States to
every labor publication and to every
organized labor man through feder-
alton organizers.
The council in its appeal. virtual
" demanded support Of the strik-
ing railway men not only from
working people but from all Ameri-
cans who love Justice.
The appeal follows:
eve call upon working people
everywhere and upon all Americans
who love Justice 10 sustain the
cause OF the railroad workers who
have ceased work as their only re-
naming method Of protest against
an Injustice which must rank az
one of the most reprehensible which
any American industrial or politi
cal Institution have ever sought to
impose.
"No workman, whether mcmher
of union or not, will, If he is pos

any work formerly done by mon now

clared at United Mine Workers
headquarters here today.
When the miners went out on
strike on April /, they left guard
groups behn0 them to safeguard
the mines from flood waters and
gas explosions
Great difficulty. It was declared
by miners leaders, would he exper-
fenced by operators who try to re-
place striking stationary engineers
due to the operation of state stat
utes in Pennsylvania. Indiana and
Illinois, providing that all station
airy engineers must have state H.

There Will be no defections from

upon the message sent by Presi-
dent Harding to the governors OF

at Is well to remember that ev-
cry union miner who wanted to
return to the mines was free to do
so for sixteen weeks of the strike.
The action OF the federal govern
