WASHINGTON. April 29.-CoIlec5ors

Later Information from collectors Is
70 the effect that q large percentage OF
The heavier tax payers have failed TO
make any returns whatever. IN SEINE
instances the reason tor the Iailur IS
undoubtedly carelessness, as is shown
oy the large number OF persons who

been deliberate The percentage OF
this latter class Is estimated as high
as one-fourth Of the whole in soma

country a conservative estimate : -
