REDUCED TAXATION
DUE IN GERMANY
Cuts in Some of More Op-
pressive Rates Probable
as Dawes Plan Fruit.
Ry the Associated Press.

Ry the Associated Press.
BERLIN, November f0-Among
the first fruits. of the functionng of.
the Dawes plan and securing foreign
loans under the project there un-
doubtedly will be a large measure of
tax reduction, and incidentally a
1illip to German export trade.
AS the state budget shows a large
excess revenue over expenditures, the
government. in cooperation with the
finance ministers of the federated
states, has decided to reduce consid-
erably certain taxes which have i'm
posed a heavy burden on the coun-
try's economic life.
Income Tax Cuts.
For example. the income tax will
be reduced approximately 20 per cent
on incomes under 5000 marks with
further reductions for families with
children. A married couple with
eight children and an income not
exceeding 1000 marks yearly will be
exempt from income tax. The tax
on the business turnover will be re-
duced from 2 per cent to 112 per
cent and the luxury tax from Is per
cent to 10 per cent.
1t is expected that these reduc-
tions, aside from decreasing the cost
of living, will increase Germany's
export capacity, as there will be no
need to increase the wages of work
men and consequently export prices
on German goods can be kept at
level which Will enable exporters
successfully to compete in the
worlds markets.
