much more uniform than our DOS

proportion to their income; they do
not wear clothing in proportion
to their income; they do not use
taxed goods in proportion to their
incomes. AS all taxes must come
out of ones income, no matter
through what system levied or
collected they are, in effect, in

sumption are really graduated in

the smallest income and the
smallest per cent from those

should be given first considera-
