w HSl1lNH1O N, May Zl-(HD
The House Ways and Means
committee sought today TO work
out a system of installment pay
ments of income taxes TO soften
the blow of steeply increased
rates in the low-income brack-
cts.
Hardly had the committee
completed its new individual tax
program by raising the range of
surtaxes from 6-77 per cent to
1921 per cent than it turned to
Secretary Morgenthau's propo-
sal TO collect up to 10 per cent
of taxable income from salaries
and wages.
That plan would authorize the
Treasury Department, perhaps
in September, to make regular
d d u o n S from paychecks
which would be used as credit
against the tax bill due next
March Is.
The committees new income
tax proposals would add an esti-
mated $2,756,OOO,O 1000 to the S.
000,000,000 now collected, with
heavy emphasis on incomes be-
low $4,000.
The program would be based
on $500 exemptions for single
persons and 81, 200 for husbands
and wives, normal tax of 6
per cent instead of 4, and mini
mum surtax rates starting at
double the present level of 6
per cent on the first $4,000 Of
net income.
The committee, rejecting a
Treasury suggestion, decided to
retain the present 10 per cent
earned income credit up to S14,-
600 in computing normal taxes
only and also kept the present
$500 exemption for dependents.

Important Legislation
The House greatly improved a Sen
ate Bill to aid small business and
doubtless the Senate will accept the
amendments. The bulk Of taxes sup.
porting this nation flows from small
business. The great mass of American
labor is employed in small business
Our entire economic and social system
has been built around small enterprise
Any real hope of increasing our wal
production is dependent upOn harness
ing the small and independent business
to war production. The vast bulk OF
wal orders have been going to q very
few big business firms. In many in.
stances raw materials needed by small.
or manufacturers to stay in business
small business is a mighty stride in the
right direction. We shall expand Oul
war production effort when we help the
small manufacturer and enable hin
and his employees to participate fully
in producing goods for our armed
forces and for OUR civilians. Look fOl
more contracts and S%ub-cOntracts to &C

tens.
The TUG. proposals in this CON
ncction are outlined in the report to tn"
Trades Councils conference. 1t sets
forth a comprehensive scheme to cover
unemployment, sickness, death, widow
hood and orphanhood, maternity, nom
compensatory accidents, invalidity.
blindness and old age. 1t proposes that
the scheme should apply to every gain
fully occupied person. Benefits should
be on Il Hat rate, plus dependents al
loWances. Contributions should also be
on IL fat rate, so per cent being paid
by the state and the other 80 per cent
in equal proportions by the employers
and employees.
\ single Ministry, it is suggested,
should administer the whole scheme.
Attached to it there should be Il com
p~rehensive National Medical Service
utilizing everything that science and
research can command for the pre-
. vention and cure of sickness and dis
ease.
Such is the quality and range Of the
thinking which goes on now among the
organized workers. Opportunities for
discussing such ~far-rcaching projects of
postwar planning constitute the main
reason why the LEADERS of the Trade
Union and LabOur movement consider
ii necessary to continue the holding Of
the working class delegate conferences.
notwithstanding war time restrictions.
In its way, the fact that these annual
meetings can still be held for unfcttered
purposes of discussion on such matters
as these is Il testimony to the vigorous
and militant spirit of the British
people.

attached particularly to the annual
conference of the Labour Party. IL va

four days. In normal times upwards
of Il thousand delegates from the ma
tiOnal Trade Unions and the local atiili,
utcd organizations of the Party attend
the conference. There may not be quite
