June 16.—The House ways and means committee today studied the treasury's pro posal for a supertax on personal income which would accomplish President Roosevelt’s objective of drastically limiting net earnings during the war. Under the recommendation sin gle persons would not be allowed more than $25,000 a year after payment of other federal taxes, while married couples would be allowed a maximum of $50,000. A tax of 100 per cent would be im posed on incomes above these amounts. In a special message to Con gress in April, Mr. Roosevelt had called for a flat limitation of $25,000 on all personal incomes. YIELD $184,000,000 Under the plan submitted by the treasury 11,000 single persons and married couples would have to pay the supertax, and about $184,000.- 000 in additional revenues would flow into the treasury yearly. In order to make its proposal more acceptable than the original one. the treasury specifically pro vided that 15 per cent of a per son’s income could be deducted for charitable contributions and an other 15 per cent for debt deduc tions. The treasury said that incomes from tax-exempt federal securi ties, however, would not be sub ject to the tax, because of the ne cessity for "respecting” the federal contract with purchasers of this type of securities. 13 Detroiters Take WAAC Quiz Tim** Staff CwmiNwtwt PORT CUSTER.
