AN ExAMPLT FOR OTHER SAEs
!; A GOOD EXAMPLE.

In neither New York or New Jer
sey are taxes collected on personal
property by the state The money
necessary for tht support CT the gov
eminent is derived from otner
sources. New Jersey, as is will
known, is the mother of trusts an
more big corporations doing an in
terstate business, are. incorporated
there than any other state, and a
tax is collected from these corpora
tons which principally supports the
state government. In Sew York an
Inheritance tax and other like taxes
which bear principally on the rich,
supply most of the money TO run
the state government, and the i'm
position of taxes on personal prop
erty is unnecessary.
Why shouldn't all the, other states
adopt similar plans? Taxes on per
sonal property were all right when
wealth was more evenly distribu-
ted but now when there are so many
great fortunes some other method of
taxation is in justice required to
make a more equitable distribution
of the tax burdens.
