SMALL BUSINESS TO BE PROTECTED IN TAX MEASURE Exemption of $2000 Probably Will Remain; Increase in Postal Rate Improbable. WASHINGTON, Aug. 6 (By Universal -Repeal of the $2000 exemption allowed corporations net incomes, which recommended as part of Secre: tary program, will not. be favored by the ways and means committee, Chairman Fordney indicated today. The committee has been flooded with protests from small business concerns declaring repeal of the exemption would be ruinous to them, Mr.

Fordney said. that The committee today decided it would steer clear of any provision in the new bill that might work hardship upon the small business man. If the final estimates of revenues under taxes to be continued and readjusted show that the exemption need not be repealed to provide the $4.000.000,000 the committee aims to raise, the exemption will not be repealed. Fordney said he fully expected there will be no necessity for the repeal. If it is repealed, however, some other way to protect the small corporations will be found, Fordney asserted.

PERSONAL SERVICE Incomes of personal service corportions will be brought under the corporation tax provisions of the bill, said. Special legislation designed to make the taking of incomes of personal service corporbe written into bill, ations proof in the courtaded. These corporations escaped taxation under the present law through a decision of the supreme court. The committe worked today on administrative features of the tax revision measure.

Beginning Monday the committee down to work on the tax schedules. "It today as we might be through with our work. a and rethe bill to the House in ten said Fordney: That is, of course, if we strike no snags, and I do not see any now." DEMOCRATS EXCLUDED. The Republican the committee. are.

drafting. the bill, Democratic members being excluded from the committee hearings. The first of the week the committee will decide when the proposed repeal of some of the existing taxes will become effective. These include 50 per cent of the freight and passenger transportation taxes, the excess profit, tax, the higher brackets of income surtaxes and the soda and-ice cream tax. The ways and means committee is ignoring many of the made by Secretary of the Treasury Mellon writing the new tax bill.

Increase in the rate of first class postage to 3 cents and to 2 cents. on postcards and a tax of 2. cents on bank checks are among the recommendations which committee members say they are SO strongly opposed to that they are not being considered. Under the budget system, the appropriations committee estimates, not more than $4,000,000,000 will be required as compared with 000,000 estimated by Secretary Mellon.
