INTERNAL REVENUE DECIsIoN.- Com
missioner of Internal Revenue has decided
that when the municipal authorities asses.
tax for the grading and paving of streets
and its payment is made compulsory, per-
sons assessed with this tax may deduct the
amount paid from their incomes. Property
holders are frequently unaware that any-
thing of the kind has been done until they
are presented with heavy bills, or the
amounts are entered as liens against their
property. The same principle says the
Philadelphia Ledger, which permits the de-
ductiOn of grading or paving assessments
from incomes, should also exempt all com
pulsory charges for culvcrts and sewers.
They are in the same category precisely as
the payments demanded for grading and
paving, and the exemption holding good
in one case should be equally valid in the
other. 81 tlFA i
