lnriluco the nrcdetl rewnue 'without
Intiionliijr erf one clnsa n burden that Is
OIHTOUB.
May Be Readjustment.
It l argued by members of the Ways
nfil Mt'nnn Committee', for Instnncc,
that there nrojierly mny bo a rondjust-
ment of tho classes of Incomes that Is,
tl i Iiit mi Iho t-olntlvn Incnmci may be
'tloseil In" so that the man earning
ro.WVto fc!00f0 shall pay a certain tax
luntcntl of Inclnilliiff In one class all per
Kons who act between T20.000 and SJO.lW.
This rrnri-miacmrnt. would collier In
rcveiiiip nil down the 1 no. ,
Whllo certain Ucmocrnts doubt the ex-
jifdlrncy of surh leKlslntlon-Iooklnu at
the matter firm n Political land no ; n
fconnmic niniiiipiiini u in iiu,m.w- -..-.
the Income tax exemptions will also t
lowered. Tho exemptions at present
nro Jl.OOn for the married man or wo
innii, and tt.OOO lor tho unmarried taxce.
Tho new exemptions ore likely to be
J2.000 and 11.00 respect' vcly and a few
inlllloniTmay bo realised, by this change.
' "It Is not proper that I should talk
about probablo rates at this time," said
Mr. Hull today. "But It can to said
with rcasonablo certainty that the In
comn may be amended to produce from
W0.000.000 -to $100,290,000 additional with
out Imposing hardships upon any class.
Suggests General Revision.
"My suggestion Is that this shall be
accomplished by a general revision of
the Income tax law and possibly a re
adjustment of the classes as to the
n mount of Income that shall be paid by
men who receive Incomes between cer
tain figures. The decision of the Su
preme Court upholds the broad prin
ciple of the Income tax, and there is
nothing to prevent making it a pro
ducer of more revenue. While Increases
In tho surtaxes are planned. It Is er
roneous to believe that theso Increases
will be so burdensome thdt they will
cause just crltlcUm. It Is not proposed
that the Increases against the so-called
wealthier classes shall bo In the nature
of confiscatory legislation, although It
Is likely they will be appreciable, and
iiilte productive."
The ncome tax now turns Into the
TreasiV from JS3.000.000 to $100,000,000. If
It can be stretched and the partv lend
ers Intend to stretch It to brlntj In J200.
P01.000 tho revenue problem of the Demo
crats will practlvally be solved, and
there will be no resultant loud wall
from the ordinary taxpayer and "com
imon people."

Th" estimated cost of the now lloorlng
