congress has been at work, advanced
to fits last congressional stage when
Il came back to the, house from the
anal conference committee with the
unanimous Endorsement OF the Demo
cratic conferees.
The measure, OF course, has both its
rrieuds and enemies. According to
the administration, II carries out
four OF the party promises. Tariff re-
form, reduction in the high cost of
living, campaign against the trusts, In
that duties have been taken OF OF
many trust made article. and the In

The measure, consequently, has a
larger Importance than that Of a mere
tariff reform bill, and Its effect must
be widespread, both on business and
Industry. and also In connection with
politics. Democratic leaders are con-
ndent that business will suffer no un-
toward effect; that consumers will be
benefited.

So far as the taxable American is
concerned, the income tax law Is now
practically In force against him. While
the tariff law In which the law Is en-
bodied will not be signed until next
week, the first returns do not have to
be made to the internal revenue col
lectors before March /, 1914. But when
the returns are made they will COW
er the income OF citizens from March
l. 1918, to December 81. and the first
payment OF tax will be for money re-
ceived during this period.
Every single person (citizen or for.
eign resident) whose annual income
exceeds $4,000. and every married per-
son with en- income above $4,000, is
expected to report his or her re-
ceipts in detail to the government
agents March / OF each year
To Produce ss2,ooo,ooo.
The estimate completed indicates
that the income tax will produce $S2,.
5000 from the 425,000 persons taxed.
To this will be added the $35,OO0,000
or more produced by the present cor
poration tax. which is continued as
part of the law.
President Wilson, the federal judges
OF the Supreme court now holding of.
flee and employees "of a state or any
political subdivision thereof" are the
only persons specifically exempted
from the tax by the new law. The
president and judges now in office
were made exempt to escape any ques-
tons of the constitutionality OF the
law. and their successors in office will
be compelled to pay the tax.
First Burden Is on Citizen.
The general public is expected to
give close study to the new law in
:he next few months as the first bur-
den OF the tax payment rests with the
individual citizen, and his failure to
report his income Is punishable by a
fine.
1t is admitted that when first re-
turns are made many taxable persons
probably will escape payments, but
with each year the governments lists
OF persons with taxable incomes will
be made more nearly complete.
Methods Of Collecting Tax.
Two primary methods Of collecting
the tax are contained in the law. One
is that the individual return made by
the citizen; the other the returns by
corporations and other employers who
pay their employees taxes lat the
source" Under the law as 1t will be
signed by President Wilson next week,
every large company employing labor
will be compelled to report any regu-
lar salaries 1t pays In excess of the
$4,000 figures, and will pay the taxes
for its employees and deduct the tax
from, their pay envelopes.
This payment at the source" will
apply to salaries, rents, interests, roy
allies, partnership profits and some
other sources of income. and persons
receiving such incomes must be pre-
pared to show that the money has
paid it's tax at its source.
In figuring up his net income for
the taxpayer. the American business
man, after deducting $4,000 for HIM
self, or $4,000, II married. will have
the right to claim the following add
tional exemptions:
Necessary expense Of carrying on
business, not including personal. living
or family expenses.
Interest paid out OF indebtedness.
