CROKER AGAINST AN INCOME TAX.
Meant 10 burden the Rich It Adds Another
burden 10 ths Poor.

Meant 20 Aurdsu the RIeh It Adds Another
Burdsn 10 ths Poor.
Richard Croker put himself on record yester-
day as opposed to the income tax proposed By
the Wilson Committee on Ways and Means
1T may seem TO its trainers very equitable
measure" said he. They probably thought
only TO tax the rich or those who can afford to
pay. They do not know that this measure is
two edged sword which cuts the poor as well
as the rich. and inriets a heavier blow on the
poor than on the rich. Ths rich will find
means OF avoiding the burden. The poor
cannot Look ct the thousands Of poor tenAnts
In this city. The rent they pay 10 the rich land
lords income. Does any one suppose though
that tha landlords will ray this tax win not
the tenants be called on to bear the burden
The tax means simply an increase OF rentals.
" favor q sensible tArin law. but an income
tax such as that which has been proposed
consider an outrageous imposition"
Mr.. Croker said that he desired that HIS re-
marks should be taken only as an individual
expression OF opinion and that he should not
be considered as talking for the Tsmmany
Hall organization.
