GOV. Wesley ON THE PROPOSED INCOME
TAX AMENDMENT

Gov. Wesley is taking vacation and
visiting Washington. Asked for his
opiniOn Of the Income tax amendment
which congress has submitted to the
people for ratification, he gave out the
following interview:
II am heartily in favor of the in
come TAX, not only as an emergency
measure, but as regular system of
taxation. In my next message to the
South Dakota legislature, l sh ali APP
peal for an immediate Endorsement OF
this amendment and in any speeches
may De required to make upon pol
itlcsl subjects. | will commend this
amendment to the best OF my ability.
II believe in the income tax because
II will force The men Of wealth TO pay
their reasonable share OF taxation.
just because OF their money, they
are often able to pass their taxes on to
Others who do not have so much money
For example, the landlord figures his
taxes into the rent. The money len
der, If forced to pay taxes, which is
unusual, will insist on adding the
amount Of them 70 the interest he re-
ceives, The manufacturer will in
clude the sum of his taxes in the
prices Of his products. The rich
New Yorker will swear himself out OF
his personal taxes by declaring he Ia
not resident Of the state. All these
classes, consisting OF wealthy men,
will hud 1t impossible TO avoid an IL
come tax. Those who say it would
encourage perjury can as consistently
claim. amy TAX encourages perjury, fol
there 10 no form VI taxation that y
property owner cannot, ia whole or in
part, escape by resorting to false
hoods. Fundamentally, am 10 favor
Of the income tax because 1t taxes the
rich instead Of the POOR"

As Soon As Possible--De-
yelopments al Linden.

IS A party of gentlemen representing
the bankers and moneyed interests
cama to Perth Amboy yesterday In
a touring car, by the way of Staten
Island, to look over the proposed
trolley route from Elizabeth to Rah-
way, Carteret, Chrome, Port Read

opment Com pany; Robert B. Muir
ray, j. A. Hodge, of New York; and
j. A. McClary, OF Railway.
A stop was made at the Packer
House to meet some of Amboy's
leading business men to learn the
sentiment of the people of this city.
An informal talk was had with
Mayor Bollschweiler, who expressed
himself as being greatly in favor of
the project. He said that, from the
views expressed to him by a number
of citizens, the new line would have
every possible encouragement and
assistance.
Construction of the new line will
begin at the earliest possible date,
probably within sixty days. but first
there will be com plete survey by
the engineers to determine the ac-
tual route, grades, crossings. road
bed, overhead construction, cars and
location and cost of power house, In
order to determine the cost Of the
undertaking.
1t is said that the new Standard
OIL plant near Linden will employ
14,000 men, when their new works
are completed, there being now en-
ployed about 5000, all of which
have the most meagre means of
transportation.
The East Linden Development
Company, controlling about 1900
acres between the great Standard
Oil Company's works and the Rah-
way river. are actively engaged In
the developm ent of their property.
Streets and avenues have been open
ed and graded, and contracts have
been awarded for the erection OF
100 houses, number OF which have
already been built.
Richard NJ, Montgomery, a big
real estate operator OF New York, Is
president of this company and is one
of the men much Interested in the
new trolley line.
Roosevelt and Chrome, with all OF
their manufacturing interests. and
which have the poorest transporta
tion facilities of any towns in this
state, will be particularly benefited
by the new trolley.
The roadbed will be built OF heavy
steel, and the cars will be of vesti
bnled 2O0-horsepower type. They
will run under fifteen minute
headway, if the traffic will warrant
1t.

is THE COMPLAINANT
1t Is Probable That a New
Case Will Be Brought for
! Alleged Violation.

On account of an error in the word
ing of the complaint the case OF the
Board Of Health against John B. Han
son, plumber, was dismissed by Re-
corder Pickersgill yesterday afternoon
after City Attorney Hommann and
John w. Beekman, the latter being
counsel for the defendant, had argued
the matter for thirty minutes.
The case was to have been tried sew
|eral months ago but postponement
after postponment resulted ON account
of the inability Of the lawyers to ap-
pear. The charge against Mr.. Hanson
was that he had violated section ID of
plumber to file plans with the Board
Of Health before plumbing is installed
in house. Mr.. Hanson put in the
plumbing in a house on Lawton place
and after the work WAS all finished,
fled plans with the health department.
After making an investigation COM
plaint, at the request of Inspector Sam
uel T. Frost, was made against Mr..
Hanson.
