Fiscal Experts

Tax Reduction
40% Levy With 80
On Excess Profits
Reported Proposed

Ry the Associated Press.
Reduction of corporation taxes
In the new revenue bill to a COM
bined rate of 40 per cent on nor
NAL and surtax income and so
per cent on excess profits was re-
ported today to have been sug-
gested to the Senate Finance
Committee by congressional fiscal
experts.
Colin F. STAN, chief of the staff
of the Joint Committee on Internal
Revenue, was said by Finance Com
mittee members to have opposed
Treasury recommendations for in
creases which would raise the
House-approved rates of As per cent
on normal and surtax brackets tc
SIS per cent and retain the 80 pei
cent excess profits levy now in
the bill.
Rebate Proposals Omitted.
The Treasury suggested COM
bined debt deduction and postwar
rebate Of IL per cent of the actual
taxes corporations would pay, but
Mr.. STAINS suggestion was reported
to have omitted rebate proposals
altogether.
Members said Mr.. STAN told the
committee the congressional staff
believed the rates suggested by the
Treasury were too high to be borne
by business.
Similar sentiments previously had
been expressed by committee men,
bers, including Senator Byrd, Demo-
crat, of Virginia, who launched a
move to reduce the use-approved
rates.
Senator Byrd told reporters he
believed the Treasury was getting
too complicated" in its suggestion
for upward revisions of corporation
rates and at the same time propos-
ing various relief provisions calling
for rebates after the war.
ut seems to me-" Senator Byrd
said, that it would be far better to
lower corporation rates than to have
business firms pay into the Treasury
q lot Of money that will have to be
returned after the war. think most
OF them would rather keep the
money in the first instance"
Special Fund Proposed.
Treasury fiscal experts also pro-
posed that corporations be di-
rected to pay into a special Treas
TRY fund Is per cent of net taxable
income which would be held in
trust for later disbursement to the
companies to meet deferred main
tenance costs, inventory losses and
other specific expenditures.
Senator Byrd said the Treasury
would receive about $4,000, 900, 900
yearly for such a fund which it
could use to finance war outlays
without paying interest costs. It
would lose the tax that would have
been paid on that amount of ne,
income, but would boost its imme-
diate receipts by upwards of 81 ,0O0,-
100000.
Chairman George said the COM
mittee hoped to settle the question
OF corporation rates before it turned
to consideration of personal income
taxes.
Meanwhile, advocates OF a sales
tax said they had decided to wait
until work on the corporate and in
uivldual sections of the bill had
been completed before seeking a
showdown.

Bill Would Authorize
Army and Navy Bus
Ey the Associated Press,

Ey the Associated Press.
Chairman Walsh of the Senate
Naval Committee drafted legislation
today to authorize the War and
Navy Departments and the Mari
time Commission to operate buses
for transportation of war workers.
Senator Walsh said the measure
would tend to remove the difii-
culties encountered by Government
employees engaged in making war
materials from the rationing provi-
sions of gasoline and rubber"

At 7S.3-Cent Average

Washington, D. C. (ILNS).-Hourly

1873 cents in January, Secretary of
Labor Perkins reports.
Wages of men averaged 81 cents

The report is based on a mail ques-
tionnaire by the Bureau of Labor Sta

ment of new minimum wage. The
study covered about 1000 firms.
Hourly earnings varied from less

Of whom there are still quite a
number
Most of whom, also, know more
about corporations stocks than farm

Garden farms, operated with trac-

Beet sugar farms, corn farms, wheat

Where hand labor has almost dis
appeared
Where mechanics do almost every
thing, from blowing to milking COWS
These furnish the great streams of

But they are owned and operated,

they do employ, farm lobbies-

Biggest Job
BY TALBOT LAKE

MRS. MAURICE T. MOORE. OF
AVA New York and Weston Conn.
has been named director of all
Women'S activities for the United
Service Organizations. This is not
a new job, but a greatly enlarged
one, for there are now $50 U.SO
clubs in operation here and ID over
seas, which require the help of lot
of women.
Much Of the U.S.O work is done
for and by women. Many wives of
the soldiers and their mothers have
TO be taken care Of accommodated
and entertained. Also, there is the
problem Of the women who are en-
ployed IN the army camps and wo-
men who work in defense indus
tries. These women also are taken
care of by Mrs. Moore's division OF
the U.S.O.
Mrs. MOOre'S experience In this
sort of work has been vast. Recent
ly she was with the United China
Relief, of which she was chairman
OF the New York Women's Division
In 1888, she was chairman of the
Y.W.C.A. foreign division and su-
pervlSed its work in SO countries. In
doing that work she established 43
branches In England to take care
OF women munition workers there
This interchangeable worker was
born In Shantung, China, the
daughter of the late Rev. Henry w
Luce, Presbyterian missionary in
the unified Christian College move
ment. She is the sister of Henry 7
Luce, noted publisher. She lived in
China until she was Is, when she
came home TO complete her educa-
ton at Wellesley. She is still on the
Wellesley Yenching Committee for
China colleges and is a member of
the Wellesley Alumnae Council.
When her brother founded
Time" magazine, she did some
work on 1t, but gave it up when she
married Mr. Moore, lawyer. They
have two sons. Michael and Thomp-

Mrs Moore has tackled many
Jobs, as her record shows, but she
regards U.SO work the most try
ing and the most important.
THE sum total of work in these
U.S.O. clubs is excellent" Mrs.
Moore said. Their purpose, as
President Roosevelt defined it, is to
serve soldiers, sailors, and defense
workers in ways that will make
daily life. and in particular leisure

1t is wrong for a child to lie to
anyone, but that Wallace would lie
to her, his own mother. the parent
found particularly upsetting.
Whenever she fused with him in
this VEN, the boy plainly was mis-
cradle. He loved his mother and
wished to remain on good terms
with her. He didn't know why he
had lied. he would say.
Wallace'S mother, and parents in
general, might do we'll to become
acquainted with what is common
cause of lying-fear of telling the
truth. Suppose child is in trouble
at school, or has done something
which he knows TO be wrong out
side. You can be sure he is trying
not TO think about it; that he even
may be deluding himself that 1t
isn't SO.
But whether a child actually will
m a e ia lSe statements when
brought-to trial depends upon who
the judge is. If he is the kind of a
person who is inclined TO be over
bearing, or to nag or worry unnec-
eSSarily, the child won't be able to
tell him the truth for fear Of the
consequences. But when a parent
is tolerant and fair, where he is
known to be willing to hear the
child'S side too and deal with him
Understandings, he cannot help
but inspire confidence and trust.
II your child tells lies, don't take
offenSe and don't blame him. IN
derstand that it isn't intended as
mark of disreSpect. Look rather to
your own attitude toward him as
likely place to find the cause and
then take proper steps to remove it.
