INCOME TAX IS
HEAVIEST EVER
KNOWN IN WORLD
Never before in the history of the.
world has any country put such a tax
on wealth as is levied by the recently
passed war tax bill. While the tax on i
small incomes has not been great, the!
additions when one gets into large fig-;
ures becomes immense. The untaxable,
income has been reduced from $3,000;
a year as heretofore, to $1,000, and for!
j married men from $4,000 to $2,000. j
| Otherwise there is no change in the
percentage of income taxes until the
annual income of $5,000 a year is
reached. One per cent is added to the
amount of the former tax on the :
amount in excess of $5,000 and under 1
$7,500: between $7,500 and $10,000, 2
I per cent; $10,000 to $12,500, 3 per

Corporation Taxes
But not only are the incomes of in
dividuals hit hard, but those of cor
porations do not get by lightly, The
tax on corporations, which was 1 pci
cent, on the net income before 1916,
was raised to 2 per cent of the income
last year. Now' 4 per cent has been
added to this, making the total tax on
corporation incomes 6 per cent or just
six times as high as it was before the
war.
In addition to this tax there has
been levied an excess profit tax on in
comes. This permits a corporation to
make a profit of $3,000 and 7 per cent
of the capital used in the business
without additional tax.
If it is shown that before the war
the corporation w'as making 9 per cent
profit or more it is permitted to make
that now' in addition to $3,000 without
excessive income taxes applying. How
ever, a company making a profit in ex
cess of 9 per cent and $3,000 must
pay 20 per cent on the excess up to
15 per cent of the invested capital. An
income in excess of 15 per cent and
under 20 per cent must pay 25 per
cent; in excess of 20 per cent and un
der 25 per cent pays 35 per cent; ir
excess of 25 per cent and under 33 per
cent pays 45 per cent; in excess of 3M
per cent profit the tax is 60 per cent
of the total income.

AMSTERDAM, Oct. 29.—American control or super
vision of the Balkans is advocated by the Bulgarian news
paper MIR, in a long editorial which says in part.
“Of all the belligerents the Americans alone are in a
position to form a true appreciation of the situation in the
Balkans. They are disinterested and well acquainted with
local conditions, and are in a position to give everybody
his due. Having such a knowledge of the Balkan penin
sula, they ought to have the moral will to exert their au

“We do not ask that America should take our side and
that she should protect us. We desire that she should take
the defense of oppressed rights in our countries, and that
she should become an impartial judge between us and her
allies. We desire that she should create a situation in the
Balkans which will be in agreement with the principle of
national unification, international justice, and true de
mocracy. WTe would like to see the United States exerting
their moral influence not only where their material inter
ests are affected but also where moral truth and sacred
justice call out to them. Devastated Macedonia cries for
justice to all the world. Can America remain a silent wit
ness when other countries are endeavoring to subjugate -
Macedonia?" .....iXZs.
