SUGGESTS ON NET WORTH OF ALL INDIVIDUALS Baeharach Says One Per Cent Would Raise Billisn a Year. A tax of 1 per cent on the net worth of Individuals waa suggested by Representative Btchtrach, of New Jersey, a Republican member of the House Ways and Means Committee. yesterday, as a possible substitute for present objectionable taxes. Mr. Bacharach.

who is an advocate of a general sales or turnover tax. said that he contemplated introducing such a bill as an alternative for the sales tax in case that Ways and Means Committee. Mr. Bacharach said that he believed that a 1 per cent tax on. the net worth of an Individual would raise at least $1,000,000,000 a year.

Under his plan there would be an exemption of $10,000 for each person. Would Cat Transportatloa Tax. Mr. Bacharach criticised Secretary Mellon's recommendations for tax revision. He said that he was in harmony with Mr.

Mellon on the proposition of repealing the excess profits tax and so-called nuisance taxes, but that he would go further in the elimination of other special excise taxes and the tax on transportation. Mr. Bacharach said that in his opinion. Secretary Mellon's suggestions did not insure sufficient funds for all the probable needa ot the government, including soldiers' bonus. -As I view the situation." said Mr Bacharach.

"there must be a very heavy increase in appropriations for taking care of our maimed and disabled soldiers, and the indications are that a bonus bill of some a cash bonus or life insurance as I originally be passed by Congress. funds for which will have to be raised by taxation, no matter if payment of the bonus does not take place for a year or mors hence, or is stretched over a period of several years. More Millions deeded. "In addition, the outlook Is that the social welfare legislation suggested by the President in his message to Congress will soon be on our statute books, and this means the expenditure of several hundred million dollars. Secretary Mellon makes no mention of these additional expenditures, the money for which is not now available and I personally do not see how this additional money ran be raised under the plan of taxation suggested by him."
