Revenue Burden Has Already
Stopped Commercial De
velopment, Says Banker
URGES NEW SALES TAX
Financial Authority Claims
Consumer Is Bearing the
Brunt of Taxation
WASHINGTON'. Dee. 21 Establish
ment of a sales tax. "repeal of the tax
on excess profits, reduction of the
higher rates on income surtaxes, up
ward revision of the tariff and the
levying of a flat tat on net profits of
corporations, were advocated before
the house ways and means commit
tee today by Otto H. Kan. New York
banker. !n a comprehensive discussion
of tax revision legislation.
Kahn.' one of the few witnesses in
vited by the committee to appear he
fore it. dwelt at length on the ques
tion of sales tax, partly in response
to indications in the committee that
this sort of tax is gaining ;p. favor.
Chairman Fordney, before Kahn was
called, said he and several other mem
bers believed some sort of sales tax
would eventuate, but were seeking
methods by which the tax would ot
Je multiplied and the consumer un
justly taxed in the final purchase.
As a result of the chairman's state
ment Kahn discussed that phase of
the problem, advocating legislative
provisions which would require the
tax to be made known in each sale aud
added to the selling price as a sepa
rate item. Such an arrangement, he
said, in his opinion, would check "the
profiteering which has resulted" from
the excess profits tax.
Discusses Situation
Tn his discussion of the need for a
revised taxation program. Kahn de
clared that American business could
not experience a healthy growth if the
government continued "on a road of
excessive taxation nd continued to
absorb the life h'or.rt or business
throuab concent rp Hon f taxes on iu
crmes and capital." He n dried that
the "tax burden" alrenriv had actually
Ftovued commercial development. .
"What has haDcned !n the nast "
he continued, "can reasonably bf ex
pected to haonen asa'n n the future.
We have seen the end of this tax and
).ian and have seen its disastrous re
sults. It has forced every business
house to run to banks for credit to
conduct business, but fina'lv the
banks ran out and the federal reserve
boa ni had to call a halt.
"After this came the collapse jn
markets which hit the farmers first,
but none have been. spared and all
business has felt the effects. The re
tailer has not been struck to the ex
tent that I fear he will. He can see
from that what will happen unless the
principle is changed."
One of the means suggested by
Kahn for lifting the present tax bur
den was a funding of the Victory
notes and war savings securities. He
urged payment out of taxes of the
treasury certificates of indebtedness,
however, saying It appeared this, could
be done without inconvenience before
they fall due. , ' '
Discussing the sales tax. Kahn said
he had "wavered and wobbled" on'the
proposition for some months, not feel
ing sure that he had a right to sug-
rOtt ttJ 11S
"l think a man ought to lean back
wards." the witness continued, "when
he proposes an ararngement by which
he w.Tl benefit, as I will benefit by
the sales tax. Nevertheless, I believe
sincerely that the consumers in the
final analysis will not suffer the bur
den under a sales tax that they now
suffer under the excess profits tax.
Consumer Paying All
"Every manufacturer and every
business man ha3 added more to the
prices of his commodities in anticipa
tion of the profits tax than he has had
a right to add. It has started at the
verv beginning of the li.fe of a manu
factured article and. continued on
through to the ertailer. The con
sumer paid it all. I submit the sales
tax would be a lighter burdr. at least."
The witness said he was not pre
pared to say a sales tax would be a
success. He said, however, at that,
he believed it would work success
fully but because it was in the nature
of an experiment he would propose a
low tax rate for the initial test. He
suggested a rate of one-third of one
per cent, estimating that such n levy
would produce approximately $650,
000.000 a year. This yield. Kahn said,
was based on the assumntion that
conditions wou'd be normal when the
tax would become effective.
Kahn also pronoscd a tax of 1" per
cent on net profit cf corporations, a
tax would be a lighter burden at least.'
v.-cvld produce at least $1.000.00.000.
The tariff revision which he pro
posed, the witness said, ought to add

I
SAVE A LIFE !
Every reader of The Review realizes the difficulty, the work and
the expense entailed in the personal solicitation of funds for any worthy
purpose. This applies to every campaign that has as its object the se
curing of money. As a consequence the decision of the local chair
man, Arthur Notman. of the Cochise County Central European Relief
Council, headed, nationally by Herbert Hoover, to urge every man and
woman' to go to their bank and buy a "Save a Life Certificate" should
meet with the approval of every one and with commensurate success.
The purchase of a flO certificate will save the life of an invisible
little guest until harvest time!
The purchase of a $5 certificate will save the life of an invisible
little guest for five months!
The purchase of n Jl certificate will save the life of an invisible
little guest for one month!
Can life be cheaper than this?
Every bank in the Warren District will supply certificates, in any
denomination, tft their customers.
Apply the, Christmas Spirit in this instmice as you would have it
in case the situation were reversed.
