THE decision of the Supreme Court declaring the income tax unconsti- tutional widens the breach between plutocracy and the people and greatly intensifes existing social conditions. An income tax may be unconstitutional, but it is right in principle. If we don't tax the rich, who else can we tax but the poor? And since wealth receives the greater benefits and protection from the Government, it should be made to bear it's just proportion of the cost of the same In view of the decision of the Supreme Court now let an amend ment be made to the Federal Consti- tuition embodying an income tax.
