members of the ways and means commit
,'toe. who " are framing the emergency
revenue bill to raise Iloo.Ofo.ftoO. it la
estimated that the proposed Income tax
changes Would produce IM.OOO.WiO annually.
In deciding on the Income tax Increases,
the committee considered the fact that
revenue from this source would not be
available until next July, but the opinion
waa general that the Increased revenue
from other sources would meet and deficit
until that time., Vnder the proposed
changea tha Income tax would be 1 Va
per Cent, on Income of single persona In
excess' of 12,060,000 and the same on mar
ried persona In excess of $3,000. in ad
dition the one-half per cent Increase would
be added pro rata In accordance with the
Increased aur taxea on Incomes in ex
cesa of 10,003.
The committee agreed also that Ihe In
creased tax on beer and malt liquors
should be 50 cent a, barrel, bringing In
SJt.OtQ.OuO. On domestic wines an extra tax
of SO oenta a gallon will raise IIO,c00,00.
Distilled aplrlta will escape an extra tax,
but It waa derided to tax rectified spirits
I cents gallon, realising S.'.OOO.Ooo.
Opponents of an Increased tax on whis
kies won their fight after three ballots
had been taken. Proponals to'levy an ad
ditional tax of 25 cents and 15 rent a gal
lon were defeated. On a proposal to make
the tax 10 cents a gallon there was a tie
vote. Finally, it waa agreed t make the
tax apply only to rectified spirits at i
cents).
The committee la aald also to have
agred tentatively on a tax on railroad
freight In lieu of a tax on railroad tick
eta. Burp a tax would be collected by the
railroad and euelly administered. The
rata proposed, It waa reported, was t per
cent.
At the conclusion of an all-day confer
ence It waa agreed not to tax tobacco
products, automobiles, gaaollne, amuse

"It wa a German officer who fit at told

Dr. Hold said the German announced
they Captured 125,O0 Russians In East

Belgium at all costs, while it Is believed
In the event of a German success France
will be made to pgy all the cost of the
war, aided by England, while Indemnity
