AT, WYy 8-,3 HIGHER TAX ON | MINES'INCOMES IN HOUSE BILL Primary Law Repeal, Mine Income Tax, Probate Costs, Up in House (Continuea rrom Page One) the latest passed, is in the section aling with levies on mining op- erations. Almost Doubles Rates The new rates proposed by Mr. Johnson virtually double the exist- ing schedules on net incomes from ‘mining operations. Under the pres- ent revenue act, a one per cent levy is assessed against net incomes from $10,000 to $500,000; one and one-half per cent on incomes be- tween $500,000 and $1,000,000; and on all net incomes in excess of $1,00000 one and three-quarters | per cent. 1 Mr. Johnston’s bill revised this | section entirely, creating one new | classification and raising rates in each one except the first. Under it, on net incomes from $10,000 to| $100,000, the rate would be onel per cent; from $100,000 to $500,000, two per cent, which i 100 per cent | higher than the present levy; be-! tween $500,000 and $1,000,000, two | and one-half per cent, a raise of 66 2/3 per cent; and over $1,000,000, | three per cent, an increase of | slightly more than 71 per cent. Wipe Out Primary Laws Mr. Boyle's two measures would wipe off the statute books all laws relating to party elections. One of them seeks to repeal all existing laws relating to primaries, and the cther repeals the statute which| prescribes the manner and method of electing national committeemen for the Republican and Democratic | parties, and of party delegates to national conventions. Nothing is set up in the bills to replace the old primary system. A | Tepeal of the laws would leave bcmi parties free to conduct party elec-| tions or conventions as each deem- | ed best for party interests. | Lists Many Fees Representative McCutcheon, Sew- ard, is the author of the two meas- ures relating to probate courts and fees therein.

Generally. according to attorneys in the House, the fees so listed are higher than those now prevailing It is also provided in the bill that “other documents may be| charged for at the same valuation so paid to the Judge of Probate “shall constitute a part of the| attorney’s fees authorized by law, and must be accounted for by the executor or administrator as such.” Fixes Attorney’s Fees A second measure by Mr. Me- Cutcheon defines what fees for legal services may be incurred by the administrators or executors of estates. The maximum for at- torney's services is set at 50 per cent of the fees allowed the admin- istrator or executor and provides further, that no attorney’s fees shall be allowed “when the ad- ministrator or executor is himself an attorney,” except by advance permission of the court and the principal heirs or beneficiaries.
