EST|MATESCHANGE
ON TAX RECEIPTS.
Wave of Dividends and
Wage Boosts Scanned
by Treasury Experts.
Hy the Associated Press.

b the Associated Press.
The recent wave of dividend dec
1arations and wage increases is being
scanned by Treasury experts attempt
ing to forecast tax revenues.
Oficials said revised estimates of
tax receipts for this fiscal year now
are being drafted for inclusion in
President Roosevelt's budget message
to Congress and that it was possible
these might be lifted upward by the
present business surge.
They added however, that no ma
terial changes in earlier forecasts we're
expected, because these took into con-
sideration the possibility of heavy
dividend and wage outlays by corpo-
rations faced with new levies on un-
distributed profits.
With special and regular dividend
declarations rolling toward the $780,
100000 mark and with annual wage
100000 announced in recent weeks,
oficials centered attention on prospec-
tive income-tax receipts.
Receicts from income levies, which
would largely reflect the present flood
Of cash outlays, now are estimated at
$2,303, ,363, 900 for this fiscal year, but
this figure probably will be revised in
the forecast now being compiled
Increased buying power by the Ma
tion's workers and stockholders also
may be expected to pour more revenue
into the Treasury through other tax
channels, officials said, citing the pos
sibility of increases in levies on to-
bacco, beverages, gasoline, amusements
and the like.
On the basis of business prospects
then apparent, President Roosevelt
estimated in September that the 1896
revenue act, carrying the taxes on
undistributed profits, would provide
S652, 100000 year. This estimate in
cluded both expected income from the
profits levy and anticipated increases
in income tax receipts resulting from
heavier corporate dividends.
Secretary Morgenthau told a recent
press conference the recent widespread
dividend and wage outlays would pro-
vide revenue about in line" with
that estimate.
