Washington, Juno 15. Urging a 2
per cent tnx on the net Income of cor
porations and tho ndoptton. of an
amendment to tho Constitution pro
viding mi Income tax without mi ap
portionment among the several states,
President Tnft to-day sent to Congress
a message embodying his views on
the subject.
The President speaks of tho niv
patent Inability of Congress to ngreo
to nn Inheritance tax, nud, us regards
an Income tax, ho refers to the deci
sion of the Supremo Court In tho case
of Pollol: vs. the Farmers' Loan and
Trust Company, In which tho Court
held the tux to be unconstitutional,
unless apportioned according to not-
illation, "it Is." says thu President,
iiiiiloubtedly a power width tho (lov
eminent ought to lmvo. It might bo
indispensable to thu Nation's life In u
gieat cilsls."
An amendment to the tin Iff bill

associations or an excise tux ot 2 ih.t
cent on the net Income or said corpora

The President, points out that an
other iuo.rlt 10 the tnx on eoiporatlons
Is the l'Vderul supervision, which will
give to tho Covcinmuiit, the stock
holders nnd thu public knowledge or
the real business transacted.
The message was brought Into the
Senate while. Senator Hiirton was
speaking. Senator Root being In tho
cliuli, oidered the leading or tho docu
ment as Minn as tho Ohio Senator
teused speaking.
When the purpoit or Iho measure
was made known, both Ronubllcuns

slon, makes It npproprlate for me to
submit to Congress certain additional
recommendations.
"The decision or the Supreme Court
In tho income tux cases deprives the
national (lovernincnt or a power which,
by reason or previous decision of the
Court, It vvns generally supposed the
Ooveinment had. It Is undoubtedly a
power that the national Government
ought to have. It might ho Imllspcns
nblo to the N'ntlon's life In n great
crisis. Although I have not consldci
ed a constitutional amendment as
necessary to tho exercise of certain
phases of this power, n mature con
siuerntiou has satisfied me that mi
amendment Is tho only proper course
for Itg establishment to Its full extent,
Recommends Amendment.
"I therefore recommend to tho Con,
gross that both houses, by a twokhlrds
voto, shall propose nn amendment to
the Constitution conferring the power
to levy an Income tax upon the Na
tional Government without apportion
ment among the Stntes In proportion
to population,
This course Is ranch to he preferred
to tho one proposed, of re-enacting a
law once Judicially declared to be un
constitutional. For Congress to ns-
Biimo thai tho court will reverse It
self, and lo enact legislation on such
ussumptlon, will not strengthen pop
tilar confidence In tho stability of the
Judicial construction ot the Constitu
tion, It Is much wider policy to ac
cept tho Constitution and lemedy the
dcrcct In duo nnd regular course.
Would Retent Delay.
"Again It Is clear that by the enact
ment or the proposed law the Congress
will not bo bringing nionov Into tho
treasury lo meet tho piesent dellelen
cy, but by pulling on the statute book
11 law already there nnd never repeal-
ed. will simply be suggesting to the
executive olllcers or Ihe Government
their postdblo duty to Invoke litigation
U the couit should maintain Its former
view, no tax would bo collected nt all.
it 11 slinitM ultimately, reverse Itself
utlll no laves would lne been collect
ed until liter protuicrt delay.
"It Is said the dllT.culty ami delay
In securing tint anpioval or three
fourths of the Stntes will destroy all
chance of adopting the amendment.
Or course, no 0110 van speak with cer
tainty iiHin this point, but I liuve be
come convinced that a great majority
or tho people or Ihls country are In
favor or vesting- the National Govern
ment with powxm- to lov an Income
tnx.
"Second, the declplon In the Pollock
caso left power In the National Gov
eminent to l;ty an excise lax which
accomplishes 'the same purpose as a
corporation Jueoino tax. and Is fiec
from certain.' objections urged to Iho
proposed Income tax mensiuc.

"I therefore leconiniend nn amend
ment to tl'o tmirr hill Ininoslnir nnon
nil coiporotlons und Joint stock coin-
p.inles foj pioflt. except national banki
(olhcrvvlso taxed), savings banks and

"The decision of tho Supiemo Couit
In tho casu or Iho Spieckels Sugar Re
fining Company against MeClalii,
teems clearly to establish tho ract
that such, 11 tax us Ibis is nu excise
tax upon pilvllego nnd not a direct tax
on ptopeiiy and Is within the Federal
power without apportionment nccord
lug to population. Tho tax on net In.
(omo Is pi credible to oiiu pioportlou.

Another merit of this tax Is the

which may prevent 11 further abuse of

"I recommend then, fiist, tho adop

of both bouses, proposing to Iho stntes
an amendment to tho Constitution
granting tho Federal Government tho
right to levy hnd collect an Income tnx

"WILLIAM H. TAFT
"The White House, Juno 1G, 1509,"
Washington, Juno 10. The fight for
nn Income tnx. will be continued. Five
progressive Republican Senators,
Messrs. Horah, Hrlstow,, Cummins, Ln
Follette nnd Clapp, coiiferred tonight
to determine what their attitude Is to
he In relation to the Income tnx
amendment to the tariff bill In the face
or President Tart's special inessago
to Conrgcss today rnvorlng the sub
mission of Ihe question to the Stntes
for constitutional amendment nnd the
enactment of n law taxing the net
earnings of corporations.
They decided that Iho President's
plan Is not Inconsistent with their de
mands for tho adoption of tho amend
ment taxing Incomes mid that both
may be adopted In harmony. They as
sume thn: the President's plan. In
dorsed by lending Republicans on the
Finance Commltteo Is destined lo
"chloroform" the Income tnx amend
ment, but nevertheless, nnuounce that
they will continue to light for Its ndoi
tlon. The small nttendanro nl Iho con
ference. It Is asserted, docs, not augur
n lack of sympathy with the Income
tnx proposition, but Is explained by the
fact that tho meeting was not called
until niter tho President's messnge
was received and ninny Senators hnd
engagements which they could not
brenk.
What will bo Ihe position of the
Senate Democrats when President
Tnft's programme Is submitted for 11
