INCOME TAX
LAW NOT UP TO
EXPECTATIONS
Figures Show That Re-
duction in L e v y.
Amounted to Only a
Little Over 2 Million
WASHINGTON. July TIL—(AP).
The present tax law. designed to re-
duce the levy on the public by
$400,000,000. has effected a reduc—
tion by only a. little more than half
tllut amount. it is indicated in
treasury internal revenue figures for
the fiscal year 1025. giving the total
tax receipts as 32.584.010.847.
The total for the fiscal year 1924
was 32.796.179.256 and the reduc-
tion of $212,168,409 Shown for the
six months of 1925 during which the
lower tax rates were operative leads
treasury ofliciais to believe the new
law will fall to reduce the tax bur-
den by the sum originally contem-
plated.
Tile figures give indication. also.
that, tax reduction efforts to be
made in the next Congress will have
as a goal at least s200.000.000. and
Senator Watson of Indiana, mem-
ber of the Senate Finance Commit-
tee. announced last night that he
would favor cutting that sum from
the tax load. He beliéved the com-
bined normal and surtax on incomes
should not exceed 25 per cent but
he had reached no conclusions as to
how the levy should be divided.
Maximum burtaxes ranging from
13 to 25 per cent have been advo-
cated by other prominent figures,
the higher one being sponsored by
Chairman Smoot of the Senate Fin-
ance Committee and Chairman
Green of the House Ways and
Means Committee. Senator L'nder-
wood of Alabama. has suggested a
13 per cent maximum surtax and
Frank \V. Mandel]. retiring mem-
ber of the War Finance Corpora-
tion. has favored a. 15 per cent lim—
it.
Of the total internal revenue for
1925, 51.761.681.641 was from in-
come taxes. representing a reduc-
tion from 1924 of only $80,077,675,
and this indicated to treasury ex-
ports that still lower in rates are
possible without seriously impairing
the government's revenue. The re-
duced levies. they believe. have
opened up new employment for
large incomes which were held out
of business by the former high sur-
‘axes. and that new low rates would
“hrk for a correspondingly increas-
t~l rmenue.
