FAVORS THE
INCOME TAX

WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Dlscuss-
ing his resolution TO provide for an in
come tax amendment TO the Federal
Constitution, Senator Brown, (Repub-
lican, Nebraska.) IN the Senate this
afternoon. said that there was diff
ference of opinion among the greatest
minds Of the country and the greatest
judges. as 20 the validity of an income
tax law. and had been since the con-
stitutional convention when Madison
and Hamilton led differing factions.
AS a result OF this conflict OF opin-
ion. the courts had at different times
given conflicting decisions
lie favored the passage of an in
come tax law. and also his resolution
so that provision could be made to in
sure the stability of such a law. There
was no assurance that because the
personnel OF the supreme court had
changed, that the decision Of 1895 de-
claring an income tax law unconsti-
tutional, would be reversed. And il
the present court did sustain such "a
law. another court, no said, might
render a contrary decision. 1t was
important that Congress have unQues-
toned authorit yto enforce an income
tax, because in time OF war, customs
duties would shrink, and the revenue
from incomes might be necessary to
save the life of the nation. Mr.. Brown
expressed confidence that the people
OF the country favored the passage OF
an income tax law, and would cheer
fully approve the proposed amend .
ment to the Constitution.
