Tax Plan
The continuance; 01 business pros-

fdrpcndvnt upon the reduction of the
prcsu-nt high taxes. and the sooner
the drag and burden of war taxes
are removed from industry the better

icully. states the current issue 0! the

5—Make certain changes lending

and the dcduction of interest, paid.
and preventing the division of tax

crly.
B~Make changes generally/o look-
ing to the simplification and better
enforcement of the tax law.
The Mellon plan will greatly bene-
fit the person with a moderate in-
comc. Of the total reductions in
taxes of. $323,000,000 which the
Secretary has recommended.- 8100.-
100.000 comes under the head of
taxes on telegrams. telephone calls.
leased wires. theatre admissions and
smeailed nuisance taxes, which leaves
$222,900,000 to be cut from the yield
of income taxes. or this sum. the
reduction of yearly income taxes on
incomes up to $6.000 will amount to
s92.775o,000. 0n incomes from
$6,000 up to $10,000 the reduction
s.
will aggregate $53.100.000. This
makcs a total of $144,850,000 out of
the total reductions of $222,900.000.
In other words. about 65 per cent
of the reductions under the proposed
plan will be on incomes of 810,000
or loss. This shows the fallacy of
the charge that too much will be
taken off the incomes of the rich
and too little oft incomes of pcoplc
or moderate means.
Tile proposal to tax incomes from
“rages. salaries. and professional ser-
vices at a. lower late than income

seems to be sound and is in accord-
