AMUSEMENTS HEAVILY TAXED
BY THE NEW REVENUE BILL
Patrons of Theatres, Operas and Movies Must Pay Nearly
Twice the JFar Levy That Now Obtains Children
Alone Escape Increase
ARTICLE lit
Staff Correspondent ftrnlno Puolle Ledatr
Washington, Sept. 13.
In carrvJng out the general plan to tax
luxuries and seml-luxurlcs, wnr profits
and Inflated Incomes nnd leave neces
sities unburdened, the new war tax bill
lajs a heavy hand on amusements.
The tax on ndmlsilons to theatres,
movies and operas, and on club dues
and Initiations will be approximately
double the rates now In effect.
One, hundred million dollars will be
raised for war expenses from this source
during the year beginning November 1.
1918 when the new taxes on admissions
and dues go Into effect. It Is estimated
by the Treasury Department, compared
with J50.000.000 which this levy pro
duced for the last jear.
Children Escape Increase
If there Is a touch of tenderness in
the whole bill, nnd such a thing would
appear to bo out of place In a war tax
law, then It will be found In this sec
tion. For It piovldes that a tax of but
one cent shall be charged for admission
of children under twelve years of age
to amusements regardless of the nmount
paid for ndmlsslon This Is plainly a
generosity to the wage-earner who,
without an automobile or a taste for
opera and expensive plavs and lacking
membership In an exclusive club, takes
the wife and several children to the
"movies" almost nightly ns their only
amusement.
Soldiers, sailors and marines In United
States uniform are exempted from pav
ing admission taxes where they are ad
mitted free by the proprietor.
The new tax bill fixes tho levy on
amusement admissions at two cehts on
each ten cents or fraction thereof
charged for such admission. Tho present
rate Is one cent.
Admission to the five-cent movie and
rides on roller coasters, carousels, loop-the-loops,
dips, Ferris wheels, etc, nt
utdoor parks, and admlsBlon charged to
outdoor parks, the maximum charge for
which Is ten cents, which have "cajM
taxation heretofore, will now contribute
their share to the war expense by paying
one cent tax where tho charge Is seven
cents or less
ah r,rons evrent employes, munici
pal officers on business and children un
.. trlvi who for any renBon are ad
mitted free or at reduced rates to any
.-. .iimi.nt- must under tne new
mm no,, m rents tax for each ten
