LARGE INCREASE
IN TAXES CITED
New Levies Bring More

special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, Dec. 7.-New taxes
imposed by the present administration
accounted for collections Of almost
81 900, 100000 in the fiscal year 1897,
or more than 20 per cent Of all in
ternal revenue, according to The Index
Of the New York Trust Co. Manu-
facturers excise taxes, the excess
profits tax, the undistributed profits
tax, and the social security taxes
are singled out by the bank review
as the most important Of these new
levies which were not made in 1890
but are now incorporated in the
Federal tax structure.
Internal revenue collections bear
most heavily upon those States where
manufacturing is the major indus
try" states The Index, "and this
tendency has been accentuated by the
new taxes imposed in recent years.
While this may be rationalized to a
great extent on the basis Of income
received In these manufacturing
States, as well as by ease OF collection,
the fact remains that income in the
agricultural States, as represented by
farm products retained for consump-
ton on the farm, may represent a very
substantial item which escapes taxa
ton altogether The charge that in
dustry maintains price levels out OF
proportion to the costs Of raw mate
rials must thus always be viewed in
the light Of the heavy taxation to
which it is directly or indirectly
exposed through these various in
ternal revenue taxes.
There is little disagreement on the
main point that our present tax sys-
tenn is cumbersome and subject to
marked inequalities, with serious
duplication between the various levies
imposed by the Federal Government
and those of other governmental
units. II the primary purpose of
taxation is to raise the revenues neces-
sary for the proper functioning Of
government. 1t would appear clear
that taxes which serve to restrict
industry's opportunity to make further
progress, defeat their own purposes
by raising the costs of production so
high that curtailment of the dis
tributive market Is almost inevitable +"

However, if neither of these OPP

would be a good policy to have
an expert check the valves and
