Il seems To be as epidemic rs the grip

many women, even those with children

nIsronv on rnn INcoMn TAX.

IL was first proposed to levy tax on
incomes derived from investments aud
to exempt those incomes that were de-
rived from industry. But by majority
Of one this proposition was lost in the
house committee, and it was voted to
levy the tax on all incomes. Then the
supreme court held by vote of to 2
that the tax on investments was uncon-
stitutional. The court was, however,
evenly divided on the question of the
constitutionality OF the tax on industry.
SO for a time the tax remained ON in
dustry, but it was removed from wealth.
But later the court held that the en-
tire tax was unconstitutional. Thus
those who have not paid their income
tax need not, those who paid under pro-
test have claim for their money, and
those who paid without protest must
wait for congress to take action for the
refunding of the tax.
Concerning the justice or injustice of
the income tax, this is neither the time
nor place to speak. But one word as to
taxes in general namely, if there is to
lie any discrimination in the imposition
of taxes, it she uld be in the direction of
correcting inequalities, not in increas-
ing them.
