OrdICluS OIL d TAX foOuCClOn OIL
The "catch" for holding the very
rich, as a class, in the Mellon plan,
is that Mellon is proposing certain
tax increases as we'll as certain
tax reductions, and that the eff
feet of the tax increases will be
permanent, whereas the effect of
the tax reductions, if the very rich
Sr~e considered not as individuals.
blI as Il class, will for the most
part be temporary. In these cal
culations, the phrase very rich" is
commonly taken as meaning those
persons whose taxable incomes are
100000 a year or more.
The number of such persons, 'ac-
cording to Treasury Department
estimates for the year is $3.50.
Savings Are $52,275,OOO.
A complete analysis of the effect
of the Mellon plan upon these very
rich" has revealed the following re.
suits for them:
They will profit by the Mellon
plan in three ways. The reduction
in the normal" income tax will
save them $3,200,000. The reduc-
ton in the tax on earned (as con
trasted with unearned) incomes will
save them $4,000. The reduction
in the surtaxes will save them $48,-
700, 900. This makes a total of $52,-
275, 900 which these people will save
in taxes through the Mellon plan.
Meanwhile, however, Mellon Is
carefully waiting for them on the
other side of the ledger. On that
side they get their taxes increased
in three distinct new ways.
Offset Is $46,5OO,OOO.
The first of these ways is through
limiting their right to deduct their
capital losses" from their tax bills.
This will cost them $2O,0O0,0 900 q
year.
The second way is through Il
highly technical method of penaliz
ing them indirectly for putting too

Will Discuss Planes and Subs
If Coolidge Calls
Conference.

LONDON, Dec. 2O.-Great Britain
is willing to participate in an inter
national conference for submarine
and airplane disarmament If Presi-
dent Coolidge OF the United States
summons it, according to foreign Of
flee officials today.
1t was pointed out that Ramsay
Macdonald, leader of the labor party
may succeed Stanley Baldwin az
premier, and Macdonald is known
to be in sympathy with any move
ment for disarmament.
So far the foreign office has not
received any definite information
about the reported conference ex.
cept what was conveyed in press
dispatches from Washington.
1t was reported in official circles
that unofficial negotiations are in
progress between representatives of
Soviet Russia and Macdonald rela'
tive to recognition of the Moscow
government.
Whitehall-the seat of British of.
ficialdom-is convinced that Mac.
Donald would grant early recogni.
ton to the Soviet government If
he comes into power as British pre-.
mier.

Attitude of Coolidge.

President Coolidge Is willing, as
was the late President Harding, to
call a new international conference
to attempt limitation Of submarines
and aircraft at any time when con-
d1t1ons are such as to lead to n
successful undertaking, it was
stated today in official quarters.
Like Harding, however, President
Coolidge does not consider that
such time has yet arrived, and
consequently no steps are being
taken at this time toward the sum-
moning or such conference.
