Large Personal Exemption Urged

The agricultural group in the house
will urge an increase in present per-
sOnal exemptions as a means of CIV
ing additional relief to the farmer.
The Mellon tax bill makes no change
in exemptions, which are 81 900 for
single individuals and $4,000 for heads
of families with an income of $4,000
or less having an exemption of So, 500.
1t is proposed that there shall be an
increase of about $500 in the exemp-
tions. By making such an increase
it is estimated that 95 per cent of the
small farmers of the country would
pay no income tax. By increasing the
exemption it is urged that something
would be done for the small farmer
in lieu of the 25 per cent special re-
duction on earned income which the
salaried man and the wage Garner is
to be given, but which will not apply
to farmers or storekeepers unless they
so operate their business as to credit
themselves with regular salary.
The agricultural group is inclined
to favor the moderate reductions in
normal taxes proposed by Secretary
Mellon rather than insisting upon
the more sweeping cuts suggested by
the La Toilette radical group.
Farm-Bl0c for Other Taxes
Man.. Of the agricultural members
are disposed to favor some of the pro-
pesals outside the Mellon program.
such as increased inheritance tax, a
tax on gifts and tax on undisturbed
earnings of corporations. There is
little real sentiment for the restora
ton of an excess profits tax outside
of the extreme radical group.
The AGRICULTURAL group, it is under
stood, will not insist upon such things
as an increased inheritance tax, which
is strongly objected to by Secretary
Mellon, if a compromise surtax rate
proposal is framed and exemptions are
increased.
The administration leaders in the
house realize that they have got to
satisfy the agricultural group and are
giving serious consideration to the
compromise suggested. If COM
promise satisfactory to this element
among the republicans can be drawn
up they will still require a consider
able number of democratic votes.
There is little thought of attempting
to satisfy the La Toilette radicals and
If a score or more democratic voters
cannot be obtained to offset the de-
lection of that group, prospects of
the enactment of any tax revision leg
islation will go glimmering.

of the Treasury Mellon and that the
best that can be hoped for is a
compromise midway between the pre-
sent SO per cent maximum and the
low figure proposed. He has inform
ed Mr.. Green that the administration
might as well be satisfied with par
tia1 reduction in this session and
that conditions in later session may
warrant further cut.
Representative Green has made
some computations based on posi-
bic maximum surtax rate of 30 per
cent. 1t is understood that he would
like to reduce the highest rate to that
point. Mr.. Dickinson has informed
him that it might be possible to win
sufficient support for reduction to 35
per cent but that he feels more GER
tain that rate of between 81 and AZ
per cent would prove acceptable.
Favers Starting at $4,000
One suggestion which has been
given consideration is that surtax
rate of 1 per cent commence at 5000
as in the present law instead of at
SIC, 900, as proposed by Secretary Mel
lon and that the maximum be IS per

Secretary Mellon has recommended
that a maximum Of Is per cent apply
on income in excess of $100,000 The
present maximum of so per cent ap-
plies on income in excess of 5000, 900.
Under the 35 per cent maximum
proposal 2 per cent rate would APP

According to estimates of the treas

Bloc
in House Agree on
Surtax Reduction.
By Arthur Sears Henning.

Washington, Jan. Willingness
to accept cut in surtax rates from
the present maximum of so per cent
to a maximum of somewhere between
81 and AZ per cent has been express
ed in definite proposal submitted to
administration leaders by members
of the house farm bloc.
The spokesman for the farm bloc
is Representative L. j. Dickinson
{rep., Iowa., chairman of the ways
and means committee.
81 Per Cent Surtax Approved
After canvassing sentiment among
the republicans from western states
who have usually voted as unit on
agricultural matters Mr.. Dickinson is
of the opinion that maximum surtax
rate of between 81 and AZ per cent
will prove acceptable and that q bill
making such reduction can be pass
ed. He believes that nearly all the
republicans in the house with the ex-
ception of the group of La Fallotte
radicals will support bill of this
character. He is of the opinion fur
thermore that sufficient sentiment for
some reductions in surtax rates have
been developed to cause many de-
mocrats to go along with this COM
promise proposal, notwithstanding
declaration of opposition to any re-
duction in the highest brackets which
have been made by some of the de-
mocratic leaders.
Dickinson Urges Compromise
Representative Dickinson who was
the leader in the fight of the farm
bloc against any reduction in the
maximum surtax rate below so per
cent in 1921, has informed Chairman
Green that it is useless to attempt to
reduce maximum surtax rates to IS
per cent as recommended by Secretary

OF the Detroit Baseball Club, says
that his condition is much i'm

Rigney says his ailment has been

remain there the remainder Of the
winter. He says the baths at
Marlin will prevent any further
disorder and insure him Of complete
recovery before the training season
starts.
A month ago reports from Texas
indicated that Rigney would not

he would not play ball again.
