of over $4,000.
He declares that in trying to
evade this tax that the people
of this country Will become "a
nation Of liars"
This isn't very complimentary
to the p~ople OF the United
States, nor is the statement
correct.
1t has been figured chat not
more than two million people
in the United StateS draw an
income Of $1,000 or more per
annum. This is scarcely four
per cent Of the population and
if they all lied it would not make
this country Il nation OF liars,
but the vast ma l"rity Of the
number are probably honest men
and would no. seek to enVade
the slight tax on their incomes.
They have not done so in other
countries where the income tax
prevails. Besides, it has been
pointed out that men could not
we'll evade this law; that their
incomes could be more readily
ascertaineh than the value Of
their taxable property.
The income tax meas ures
would be a great revenue pro-
iucer and would put the expense
of the government where it be-
longs-ol the people able to
bear it.
The trouble with Mr.. Payne
and some Of the Republican
members Of congress is that many
Of their constituents would have
to cuntribut somewhat according
to their means to the expense Of
the government.
