The recompmendations, embodied in is to be made the basis of a referen- dum vote of organizations affiliated with the chamber, touch upon ad- ministrative as well as rate provisions of the law and are, broadly, in agree- | ment with the proposals of Secretary | Mellon. They includ® “revision of the nor- |mal and sur-tax rates on individual incomes to an extent equal in its re- sults on revenues to a large part of the surplus anticipated at the end of the fiscal year,” a “reasonable differ- entiation between earned income and | other income™ and repeal of war ex- | cise taxes confined to particular busi- nesses, As amendment to the constftution “permitting non-discriminatory taxa- tion reciprocally between the federal government and the states of income | derived from future issues of securi- |ties made by or under the authority of federal and state governments” also is suggested and establishment, “independently of the bureau of in- ternal revenue” of a board of tax ap- peals is favored. The commissioner of internal rev- enue, it says, “should be freed of all duties with respect to the prohibition act and the narcotic act, and should be directed “to decentralize adminis- ( |tration as rapidly and as far as pos- | sible.”” 1t also recommends that con- gress authorize the filing of a tenta- tive return on the present due rate { with & right to file a final return not more than three months later and |that a joint committee, with mem- |bers from both houses of congress |and representatives of the public be created “to make a thorough study of federal taxes, simplification of the law for the income tax, and improve- ment in administration.” | | Positively fresh eggs 66c doz.

London, Jan. 18—Miners” Federa- tion headquarters here made public today the figures of the recent ballot | taken throughout the coal fields. They | show that the vote was 510,803 for the termination of the national wages agreement and 114,658 against thfi termination., 1 As three months' notice must be given by the miners’ executives to the owners, announcing the termina- tion of the agreement, there is ample time for negotiation as to reconsider- ation of the miners’ demands for more money before there is a resort to the strike weapon. It is pointed out, however, that the 5 to 1 ballot in favor of terminating the agreement indicates that a great amount of dis- satisfaction exists among the miners who have been striving for a year to wring a concession from the owners.
