REVENUE PLAN IN FINAL FORM DECIDED UPON Excess Profits Tax From 30 to 80 Percent cn Net Incomes. WASHINGTON. July 27. The graduated excess profits tax of from 30 to 80 per cent on net income beyond exemptions practically was adopted Friday In a final form by the House wayn and means committee, thereby ratifying the tentative agreement reached Thursday. The committee also decided upon the same specific exemption of $2,000, plus 10 per cent on the amount of Invested capital, as tentatively decided yesterday. Adjournment was taken by the committies until Monday, when taxation of luxuries, estimated by the treasury as capable of raising 12,000,000,000 will be considered. Compjaints of inequalities to the treasuryand to the committee are ex pected to be remedied by the committee's action today In repealing a sec tion of the present revenue law. The effect will be that the excess profits tax under the pending bill will not apply to Individuals and partnerships, but only to corporations. Individuals and partnerships are amply reached through the normal and surtax provisions of the Income tax law. The committee decided to retain substantially the same text of "capi tal invested, and other definitions as are in the present law. Not Above 60 Per Cent. While not definitely deciding the matter a majority of the committee was favorable to a provision that in no case should the excess profits tax exceed 60 per cent of the net income nor be less than 10 per cent of the net Income in the case of corporations with a capital exceeding $200,000 Common carriers and public utility corporations whose rates are subject to regulations by Federal state or municipal government, were excepted from the 10 per cent minimum, because the committee regarded such rates as already regulated to a low income basis. 'Treasury experts reported that the excess profits plan adopted would produce approximately $500,000,000 more revenue than derived from the same sources under the present law Computations were submitted showing that If the revenue from excess profits under the present law yields $1,200,000,000, It. would raise under the proposed plan $1,690,000,000, or If the present law raises only $1,000,000,000 from exress profits, considered by some of the rommittee members as more nearly correct, the revenue under the proposed plan would be correspondingly less. Flat Tax Considered. Several members of the committee wero disposed to favor a flat tax of 80 percent, the maximum proposed in the finally adopted plan, but the committee rejected the proposal as one that would discourage initiative in Industry and business. The committee disregarded altogether all pre-war comparisons for taxation. There is atill a discrepancy of almost $2,000,000,000 between the revenue estimated (o be yielded by the excess profits ind income taxes, as proposed, and the $6,000,000,000 sought from those sources under the $8,000,noo.ooo revenue program on which the committee is working. So far, however, no new source of tax has been considered, but new taxable sources may be found when luxuries are considered. Treasury experts have advised the committee that by doubling the present tax on liquors, tobacco, soft drinks, admissions to amusements, transportation, 'lub dues and excise tax on such articles as automobiles and perfumes, the present reveune from those sources of $961,000,000 can be doubled.
