The treasury head withheld his recommendation on specific in- come tax rates. The budget must be completed, he indicated, before the rate is named. At the same time, how- ever, he approved the principle of the committee’s plan which sug- gested that instead of the present four percent on the first $4,000 net income, and eight percent on the balance, there will be a single four percent, a ad Increased surtaxes will be levied on larger“incomes, 58 CHILE OK’S SUBWAY TO SOLVE TRAFFIC SNARLS IN CAPITAL (By Associated Press) SANTIAGO, Chile, Dee. 15.— Chile’s first subway has been au- thorized by the government, It will be “the Metropolitan Subterranean Railroad,” and will run from the Alameda or South- ern Railroad station at the west end of the Boulevard, across the | city under the boulevard for three miles to the Plaza Italia, where the east side suburbs begin. Preliminary authorization stipu- lates that the engineer and orig- inator of the project, Luis Lagar- rigue, must present final plans within six months. Unless these plans are satisfactory, construc- tion cannot be started. Tentative plans call for the or- ganization of a company with $5,- 060,000 capital to build and op- erate the subway. Should the scheme prove feas- ible, the government will permit a north-south subway and perbaps a belt line to serve the suburbs, it is announced by officials. Subways are becoming a neces- sity in Santiago, because of in- crease in street traffic following rapid growth of the capital.
