According to Congressman Grosvenor,
who is close to the administration, the
new burdens imposed upon us by the war
will necessitate the raising annually
Of at least 500, C00,000 more of revenue
than We now get. This additional
amount must be raised by taxation
of some sort. Probably we can get no
more revenue from imports under our
present system. and the whole $50, 00n, 600
will have to come from internal taxation.
Probably nothing more can be got
out of beer and viii ky, and
the stamp taxes arc SO vexatious that to
extend them would be dangerous politi-
cally. New sources of revenue must tie
found, and If amo ng them Congress does
not look with fayoring eye or an income
tax we shall be very much surprised.
