LOCOMOTIVE ENGINEER WRITES
Over work and worry cause kidney
trouble. When the kidneys are not
working properly, poisons accumulate
in the system, resulting in backaches,
sore muscles, stiff joints, rheumatic
pains, constantly tired feeling and
other distressing symptoms. George

COURT HOUES FOR PUBLIC
Washington, Aug. 16. —An eight
per cent exemption, in addition to a
specific $3,000 exemption on the ex
cess profits of corporations with a
tax of 40 per cent on all excess profits
between eight per cent and twenty
per cent and a tax of 60 per cent on
all profits exceeding 20 per cent was
agreed upon today by the house ways
and means committee. The commit
tee, in writing this amendment into
the $8,000,000,000 revenue bill, also
supported the treasury’s alternative
plan for a flat 80 per cent tax on war
profits.
The committee agreed to three clas
sifications of business for purposes of
deducting from the war profits tax.
The deduction for pre-war earnings
is: Financial and transportation cor
porations, eight per cent; manufactur
ing farming and general business, ten
per cent, and mining and kindred haz
ardous businesses, 12 per cent. Nine
ty per cent of business corporations,
it is estimated, will be affected by the
war profits tax and the remainder by
the excess profits tax.
Estimates show excess and war
profits taxes will yield a total of
$3,000,000,000, which would bring
the total of the bill much nearer the
$8,000,000,000 goal.
Chairman Kitchin, of the committ
tee, said today that the treasury ex
pected to submit tomorrow some fur
ther suggestions regarding the income
tax. He said unless there is something
to change the situation the normal in
come tax rate will begin with five per
cent on the first $4,000 and ten per
cent on all incomes between $4,000
and $5,000, the sur tax beginning at
$5,000.
The sur tax schedule, Chairman
Kitchin said, probably would stand as
agreed to, with the following percent
ages: $5,000 to $7,500, 3 per cent;
$7,000 to SIO,OOO, 6 per cent; $lO,-
000 to $15,000, 10 per cent; $15,000
to $20,000, 15 per cent; $20,000 to
$30,000, 20 per cent; $30,000 to
$40,000, 25 percent; $40,000 t0550,-
000, 30 per cent; $50,000 to $60,000,
40 per cent; S6O to $70,000, 45 per
cent; $70,000 to SBO,OOO, 47 per cent;
SBO,OOO to $90,000, 48 per cent; $90,-
000 to SIOO,OOO, 49 per cent; SIOO,-
000 to $200,000, 50 per cent; $200,-
000 to $300,000, 65 per cent; $300,-
000 to $500,000, 60 per cent; $500,-
to $1,000,000, 65 per cent, and sl,-
000,000 to $5,000,000, 70 per cent.
All incomes over $5,000,000 would
pay a war tax of of 75 per cent,
which would make such incomes tax
able to the extent of 85 per cent.
Chairmran Kitchin made this state
ment tonight:
“We changed the plan for payment
of the taxes by installments, at the
suggestion and request of the treas
ury department, so that one-third will
be due when the taxpayer makes his
returns, another third within two
months thereafter, and the remaining
third tvso months later. The commit
tee decided against a rebate for each
payment of taxes.
“The committee agreed to a pro
posal by Representative Rainey of Il
linois that names of every person ma
king returns under the income tax
law be posted in county court houses
in order that the public may know
j who have not made returns. The
I amounts will not be posted.”
