German Government
Bars Sale Of Stocks
To All but.Reich
New Measure Interpreted
In B0kn as Additional
Check on InfIution
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERN. Switzerland, June 16.-The
German government today prohibit
ed the sale of stocks to any pur-
chaser out the national treasury,
IN effect permitting the government,
to take control of any German in
dustry at any time by legal means
The government announcement
said stockholders selling their Sc
curities to the treasury would be
reimbursed in treasury bonds at the
market price of the securities on
December 81 1910. These rates are
generally 10 to 16 per cent below
the quotations Of the last few days.
This drastic order followed limi-
tation on stock trading to a per
cent daily price f1uctuation, imposed
by the government in February. In
dustralists complained bitterly at
that time.
The new measure was interpreted
here as an additional check on in
flation, signs of which have been
increasing. Recent reports have
shown a great increase in the bank
note circulation in Germany, indi-
eating a disproportionately large
amount of money in the hands of
the puolic TO the limited consumer
goods available.
The new action also would permit
the government to take a stronger
hand in the management of arma-
ment production.
The value of the German mark
in Swiss currency this week touched
the lowest point since the begin
ming of the warp Swiss francs for
100 marks At the beginning of
the war 100 marks were quoted at
go Swiss francs A high peak of 80
francs for 100 marks was reached
at the height of Germany's sue
cess when France fell, but the price
dropped to A francs per 100 marks
at the start of the Russian cam
paign.

after Federal income taxes were
paid
President Roosevelt first preached
the idea in a. message to Congress
April 81.
Mr.. Paul proposed a fiat 100 per
cent supertax on individual incomes
above SIS, 900 after payment of taxes.
and on married couples incomes
above $4,000.
He estimated that about 1000
single persons and married couples
would be affected by the proposed
limitations, which would produce
about $184,0OO,0OO.
Although aimed generally at hold
ing spendable income to the SIS 900
and $50,000 levels, the plan would
permit deduction for debts up to
Is per cent of income after payment
of present income taxes.
while this deduction would be
intended for the purpose of relieving
the hardship of debt" Mr.. Paul told
the committee, "it would be made
available also to people who had no
debt commitments, provided it was
spent in meeting other financial
commitments, such as insurance
premiums on policies taken out in
the past, or was invested in Federal
securities"
Presenting the proposal to the
committee, Mr.. P0l read a memo
randum which said there could be
no equality of privilege" in the war
effort when some of our citizens
are permitted to enjoy a luxurious
standard of living while others :"
are called upon to cut their living
standards to a bare subsistence
level"
Under levies tentatively approved
by the committee, single person
would have to have an income of
about $4,000 to have over SIS, 600
left after payment of regular in
come taxes. To have more than
$4,000 remaining after payment of
regular taxes, a married couple
would have to have a gross income
of about SIPS 900.
Recommended Safeguards.
Mr.. Paul recommended q num-
Der of safeguards to avoid circum-
vention of the proposed limitations
on income. For example, for the
supertax purposes, gifts to children
or other close relatives would not
be recognized and the income from
them would be taxed to the donors
And there would be no tax ex-
emptions for State and local Sc
curities as in the case of normal
and surtaxes.
Mr.. Paul also recommended q re-
vised treatment for corporate in
ventories. Taxpayers, he said, should
be permitted to establish temporary
reserves for possible future inventory
losses, the reserves to be deductible
in computing taxable income. Sim
ilarly, in q year of declining prices,
the taxpayer would be required to
subStract from his reserve the ap-
proximate amount by which price
deflation had reduced the value OF
his basic inventory during the year
Discusses Supertax.
Discussing the supertax, Mr.. Pau
