Collector Lowry Breaks Record In
crease Of 81. 1862, ,9l3.

When Collector NJ. X. Lowry, OF
the Second Virginia District. u. S.
Revenue office closed books Fri
day marking the end of the fiscal
year, June 80, he saw by the total
receipts that all records for in
creases in annual receipts had been
broken.
There was approximately an in
crease Of 33 per cent, in the re-
ceipts for the fiscal year just ended
over the preceding fiscal year. To
be exact the increase In receipts was
$1.S62. 2.913.61. The total receipts
we're s6,8S5.S36.79 while the receipt
OF the preceding fiscal year were $5.
022, ,923.18.
This enormous gain was due large
ly to the increase In the sale of to-
bacco. cigars and cigarettes.
Corporation taxes figured largely
also in the increase OF receipts and
during the year just closed these
taxes alone amounted to the large
sum OF $2S7.52O.3S. When the Of
flee closed SO per cent OF the cor
porations having a gross income of
more than $1,000 a year had paid
their taxes.
