Grows Acute
Committee Rejects
Proposals

Washington, June PUP The
administration and House tax
leaders today are in acute dis
agreement over the tax load that
should be imposed upon the Amer
lean people this year to help II.
nance the war.
The Ways and Means Commit
tee. near the end OF writing the
1912 tax bill has rejected virtual
ly all suggestions made by the
Treasury and the White House.
Perhaps the most serious issue
now lies in the difference between
the amount of money the com
mittee's income taxes will raise
and the amount proposed by the
administration.
Apparently assuming that the
committee will adopt at least ST.
900. 900, 900 in new and increased
excise taxes, Secretary of the
Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr.,
estimated that the committees
bill may wind up 100000 900
short of the Treasury's proposed
goal of $500. 900, 900. He told re
porters he felt that a sufficient
share Of the burden already has
been imposed on the low income
groups in the program tentatively
adopted by the committee and
that the difference should be made
up by revising upward the com
mittee's rates for corporations
and large income individuals.
The committee, on the other
hand, is generally of the opinion
that the $4,000, 900, 900, II raised al
all, should come from sales tax
an impost vigorously opposed By
the administration.
The administration chances Of
fighting the Ways and Means Com
mittee to a successful finish in
the House are slim. But the
Treasury may gain considerable
ground in the Senate
Up to now the committee has
tentatively voted to increase cor
poration income taxes by $2.500,-
600, 900 compared with the Treas
urys proposal for $3,200,000,000.
The Treasury recommended in
creased individual income taxes
that would raise more than $4,000
100000. the committee has voted
for rates and schedules that will
produce only $2.65O,O00.0Oe.
President Roosevelts suggestion
that no individual be permitted to
retain more than $4,000 a year
for himself after paying his taxes
has been ignored by the commit
tee, along with his companion pro-
posal that corporations be taxed
100 per cent OF their war profits
over a fixed exemption.

Of
Crop Control
Questionable
Case Reargument
Ordered

Washington, June 2-INS- The
Supreme Courts action in ordering
reargument in the Accent wheat
penalty case today cast a cloud over
constitutionality Of some of the
legislation enacted to control pro-
duction Of farm products.
The high court, which will ad-
journ for the summer on next Mon
day, found itself unable TO reach a
decision in the case. Secretary of
Agriculture Wickard appealed after
a lower court enjoined collection Of
a penalty of 49 cents a bushel on
marketing over-quota wheat.
In ordering reargument next Oct.
II, the court limited it TO the ques.
ton of restrictions in the AAA act
Of 1898 on use OF wheat on the farm.
While the high court in severa.
cases has ruled that the federal
government has extensive power to
control movement of farm products
in interstate commerce, foes OF ahe
act contend that the AAA act goes
down to controlling use of product
by the farmer on his own farm.
And since it is estimated that 81
per cent of all wheat produced
never leaves the farm-but is used
for seed and fed for livestock-the
courts decision may affect the en-
tire crop control scheme.
Many other crops, especially corn,
also are largely used on the farm.
Should the high court rule that
Congress cannot regulate what a
farmer does with what he raises on
his farm, AAA experts say. il may
be difficult TO effectively control
profuctfon.
