Backed in principle at least by the
administration, the majority leaders of
the House ways and means committee,
it was learned yesterday, have already
decided that the largest contributions
must, come from the pockets of the rich.
On the general assumption that, aside
from any bond issue floated, the sum
of at least $500,000,000 has got to be
. i...
raised during tiie coming nscai ycai o.v
taxation for purposes of the war, the
f il,a r.mmiftie are
Besides electing the city clerk and clt7 1 fijruring on raising this sum by a gradu
easurer, the Democrats won '22 seats , aten jCTy t,,)on the net incomes of indi
viduals and corporations.
For the present the plan is to exempt
in t j.. it inn nf individuals all small in
comes, below $1,500 a year, but from that
rate upward the scale of taxation will
steadilv increase until in the case of in
comes in excess of $100,000 the levy
upon the excess lx-comcs practically con
fiscatory. Thus, the tentative scale now
being considered runs about as lollows:
On incomes from $1,500 to $5,000, 2's
per cent; from $5,000 to $25,000, 5 per
from $25,000 to $50,000, 10 per
cent; from $50,000,000 to $100,000, 25 per
cent; ami on incomes in excess oi $in,
rum ..nt loss than 50 ner cent. This would
apply, of course, to individual earnings.
.Several members oi me commm
strongly favor putting the tax on the
excess of incomes above $100,000, a rate
as high as 75 per cent or more. On
the other hand, there is some sentiment
in favor of reducing the exemption to
the $1,000 figure.
With regard to levies against the in
comes of corporation the p,Jln is to
follow the scheme that has been adopt
ed in Great Britain and other bellig
erent countries of making the industries
receiving most of the gross revenue from
the production of war supplies pay the
heaviest premium, thus insuring the
country against undue protits. for the
munition makers.
All other corporation incomes in ex
cess of per eeut, are to he taxed also,
according to the proposed plan, on a
graduated wale, the effect of which
would be practically to confiscate in
crements of net revenue in excess of 10
per cent. .
The suggestion of the president in his
message that all the expense of the war,
so far as active participation of the
United States goes, is to be paid out ot
taxation levied Un the present genera
(, i not. mectinz with favor among
either Democrat or Republicans. House
Minoritv U-ader Mann wants the whole
expense' paid out of a bond issue, and
member of the president's cabinet have
'tronglv urged the same course upon
him. At least one of the cabinet olhcers
lis known to have contended that the
'government could issue bonds to the
extent of $10,000,000,000 at par and at a
irate of interest not in excess of a's to 4
i per cent. The prevailing opinion among
Ithe Democratic leaders favors dividing
the expense between direct taxes and a
I bond issue.

Tumulty was in the Senate gallery
listening to the war speeches when he
was reac hed with the news. He was en
thusiastic in approval of the course.

Citv Clerk dames Mn.kay and G. K. Var-
rium also spoke in high appreciation oi
the companv. Just before Mr. Newcomb
was introduced. Sec. 11. P. Hinman of the
Granite Manufacturers' association de
scribed the plans for the annual banquet
and ball of the Board of Trade to lie held
April 12.
Mr. Newcomb's Talk.
Mr. Xewcomb. at the outset of hi re
marks, likened a railroad to any other
manufacturing concern; tor instance, to
a shoe factory or to a granite quarrying
concern, ami said that a railroad makes
transportation just as a shoe factory
makes shoes, dust as a puir of shoes i
the unit production of the shoe factory,
so is the freight tons per mile and the
passenger tons per mile the unit ol the
railroad's manufacture. If the product
cannot lie turned out at a profit, then the
business does not pay. A railroad must
have the greatest amount of freight in
the longest hauls possible in order to
make the business pay. The manager
of an ordinary business is tree to use
i.:. v.r iu.loment: the manufactur
er can shut down" or curtail production if
1vaa ia ail rtVOT-Mll iidIv. or he can in
crease production and he can raise the
prices as lie sees m.
Not so with me raiirono, i...-
Tim railroad is a public service corpora
tion and has it limitations, n must,
first of all, furnish the oest service o-
ible. Auain it must meet certain great
problems of transportation. Still again
it must meet the needs of the occasional
traveler. .Moreover, there sre 48 public
service commissions in as many states
who exercise authority over me ran-
roads; and over them all is tne lnierstavp
commerce commission. The Boston &
Maine railroad, for its P. laus umirr

problem of selling the railroad s product
is different because mere -.'
things to be overcome." m
"But the embarrassing complications,
he warned, "always come back on the
public in one way or another."
Continuing the subject of regulation.
Mr. Newcomb described the widely vary
ing demands made by different and con
tiguous states-how one state says that
a railroad must have cuspidors in parlor
cars while the next state says that cus
pidors are unhealthy and shall not be
used how one state wis " i
on windows shall be used and the next j
state savs thev shall not lie used.
A solution of the problem n for the,
centralization of authority to be vested ;
in the hands of the interstate commerce j
commission, or the federal government, ;
to the end that purely interstate traffic ;
mav be regulated by some standard rules. ,
lle'referred to the action of the president j
in seeking to have the authority of the,
interstate commerce commission extend- ;
ed and to permit the railroads to have a j
little wider latitude of rates. In end- j
in" that I-art of the discussion, the;
-a tiooe that instead of.
havin2 40 masters can find one mas
ter, the interstate commerce commis

the cold weather handicaps of railroad
ing.
r.. ns,r roliof the railroads went to
the interstate commerce commission and
aked that body to make rules to relieve
the congestion and the car shortage.
There are 2,500,000 freight cars on tne
railroads, and yet there has not been in
the past year a shortage greater than
P25.OO0. As the reeult of the rules laid
down bv the interstate commerce com
mission the shortage is much decrease,!.
"The car situation to-day is not good,
he said, "but you, if you are fair, know
that it. is better than six months ago.

new ruins largely, is delivering 50) more

of the war." Summing up, the speaker
said the solution was smgle heactea su
pervision. Referring to the piling up deficit ot
the Boston & Maine, Mr. Newcomb told
of a black uotlook, since the Adamson
law makes the road pay ?1 .5O0.""' more
a year to the workmen; coal at the mines
costs two times more than it did two
years ago: the cost of transporting that
coal has been increased many fold: and
on top of that there are rigidly fixed
ratos. "We've asked for increased rates,"
he said, ' and I hope we get them."
On the other hand, there was the bright
er side of the Boston & Maine's outlook,
and the speaker went on to explain how
efforts to bring people into New Kngland
were bearing results; and he urged Ver
mont to build more hotels in order to
accommodate the vast increase of pas
senger travel which might be expected.
Himself a summer resident of Town
shend. where he and his cousin own "a
tent and two houses," he could testify to
the charms of Vermont; and he knew of
no more attractive chance for tramping
than over the "Umj Trail" of the Green
mountains. "The Boston & Maine stands
for New Kngland." he concluded, "anil I
am ready to spend three weeks and come
up herf-nnd in conjunction with yon let
the world know what you and I know of
Vermont."
The speaker was given hearty approv-
