The Income Tax
And Marriage.
0~. I..
Auburn, Maine.

Washington, Nov. 11.-Among the
troublesome questions that came up,
today, fer consideration by the income
tax experts of the treasury depart
nent vas this one:
is the income tax going to put a
premium on single blessedness
Advocates of the law contend it
would put a premium on marriage. but
itn interpreters now have found the
pare graph affecting married persons
not SO easy of comprehension after ell.
The law reads There shall be de-
Quoted from the amount of the net in
come OF each of said persons tmeaning
taxable perscnst the sum of $4,000 plus
$1,000 additional if the jiers N making
the return be n married tlan with wife
living with him. or pit tie sum of
$1,000 addition if the person making the
return be married woman with a hus-
band living with her; but IN no event
shall this additional exemption OF
$1,000 ne deducted by both a husband
and wife.
provided that only one deduction
Of $4,000 shall be made from the aggre-
gate income Of both husband and wife
when living together"
That looks simple enough, but the
experts don't think it is. For instance
they have to rule on whether two mar
-ied persons living together. each OF
~hem has an income of just $4,000, must
paw the tax. As individuals each would
be exempt. Does marriage make them
with an aggregate income of $4,000 SUBJ
ject to the tax
| Another question that does not par
t:cularly concern the treasury bu'
which will interest husbands and wives
is who is to pay the tax in case a JOINT
income is taxable. Is ii 10 be rropor-
TONED according To the income of the
indixiJl,als or the husband to pay II

One thing seems certain to the OIL
efals. The tax is going to prove an
Interesting index tn mar ages Tor mon
eV. Although many a meFcenary MAI
who took the step into matfimony may
be allowed by his wealthy wife TO pay
the income tax, the chances are gooe
that much Of her income is from IN
yestments that require the l per cent
normal tax to be withheld at the source
and a comparison of incomes wonie

however, over such q prospect because
the returns are to be kept secret any
how and only a few collectors ahe
treasury officials will know these de-
tails.

change today; at meeting of the

that a man of so ought to have forty

What if you have seen sixty. or

OF sleep will guard your health.
