FEDERAL TAXES ARE
EvADED BY INTERESTS
Income Compared With Earn
ings Indicates Profits are
Concealed.

New York-A nationwide scandal
may result from the manner in which
the corporation tax Law has worked
out. With the official announcement
by the treasury department at Wash
ington that the total amount paid in
as result of the tax is only a trifle
more than s27 900. 900, Wall street fin
anciers are convinced that an ex-
tremely clever job in hiding profits
has been carried out by somebody.
This Federal tax is / per cent OF
the net yearly incomes of all corpor-
ations from all sources over and above
$4,000. exclusive of all amounts re-
ceived as dividends on the stock of
other corporations subject to the tax
The two biggest concerns in the
country. the Standard Oil company
and the United States Steel corpora
ton, have paid into the government
more than $1,000. or about one-thir-
tenth OF the entire tax.
The big railroads alone should have
paid in as much as the total tax re-
ceipts amounted to, in the opinion OF
financial experts, and there is wonder.
ment as to why the receipts from this
source should be so small The gen
eral belief is that the big fry" corpor.
ations have so formulated their earn.
ings as to show an apparent deficit
for tax purposes.
