There is loud call for rcforu In taxation

Tho tax-roforme1s Of New York propose to adopt
tho system Of Indirect taxation. They point to
Pennsylvania, which collects most Of its royonuo
by tax On corporation dividends, which ia
paid at tho corporation Offices, and to
Massachusetts, which levios eight-nintls OF
its revenue in tho sa1no way. Massachusetts
is not, however, quito satisfied with Aor

chance that 1t will report in favor Of hIr. David

that aa general rulo men pay rcnts
