the people what the Canadian reel
procity treaty Is about. They fnd
that there is vast amount OF misin-
formation and lack OF information on
this subject. The treaty will be pass

to defeat the treaty But before II is
passed they will show in what respect
the arrangement favors the United
States trusts and makes It impossible
for the common citizen to secure any
of the benefits in the way OF reduced
cost OF living from the Canadian reci-

INCOME TAX AMENDMENT
TO FEDERAL LAW MAY FAIL
Maine Legislature Votes to Reject
Taft's Suggestion, Making Twe'ftn
' State to oppose IL.

AUGUSTA. Maine. March 3l.-un-
less some of the states that are on
record in opposition reconsider, ana
change their attitude, the proposed
income tax amendment to the federal
constitution Is dead.
The final blow came today when
the Maine legislature, which has ap'
proved an income tax for state
revenue purposes, voted to reject the
suggestion of President Taft as en-
bodied by the resolution passed py lne
United States senate, July D, lSo9'
and by the house three days later
Maine was the twelfth state TO vote
against the proposed amendment Dut
IL is likely that New YORK, Whicn
killed the resolution a year ago, VIII
reverse Its position before the pres
ent legislative session ends. The Ied-
eral constitution provides that q
three-fourths vote of the states IL
necessary to ratify a constitutional
amendment. .......
The states on record as opposing
the resolution are:
Louisiana, Massachusetts, New
York. Rhode Island, Virginia, Arkan
cas-. New Hampshire, Utah, Vermont
West Virginia, New Jersey and Maine
Twelve states have failed to act or
the matter while 22 have formally
annroyed the aTrsndment. The states
that have failed to act are:
Connecticut. Delaware, Florida
Minnesota, Nevada. North Carolina
North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Tennes
