Textiles N
OF INCOME
Questions About New Laws
Meaning Answered by
Legal Expert.
BY CHARLES A. eRODEk,

Member of the New York Bar Association
New York city.
VT has been estimated that the in
come tax law will directly affect
more than half million citizens
and aliens. Probably millions will
be indirectly affected in one way or
another by the provisions Of the law
for payment of the tax "at the source"
In addition to those directly and indi-
Iectly affected. there are many who
viii be concerned to know whether or
not they come within the provisions Of
the new law. In the light of more
than twenty years experience In han
ding tax questions from the legal
standpoint. l have sought to set down
the questions which would naturally
come to the mind of the inquiring citi-
zen and to set down briefly and in sim
pie language the answers to such ques-
tions.
Preliminary Questions.
Q.-when was this law passed? Acct.
:. 1913. and went into effect at once 1t
forms section 2 Of the tariff bill.
Q.-Does it affect any income l received
before the law was passed? Ayes: it
taxes income from March l. 1918
Q.-Why did the law fix March I. 1918.
rs the date from which income was to be
taxed? A.-Because the United States SUI
preme court had held some years ago that
the government had no constitutional
power to pass such law. and It was
therefore necessary to adopt a constitu-
tional amendment giving the government
power to tax incomes This constitutional
amendment went into effect the last part
Of February. 1918. and congress therefore
taxed incomes from the very earliest date
Q.-Has the government the power to
pass a law In October 1918. taxing income
which 1 received before that date? Alt
has been claimed that this provision of
the income tax law Is unconstitutional. be-
cause income received from March to Oc-
tober, 1918. had become part Of capital at
the time the income tax law was passed
It is unquestioned that the federal govern
ment has no power to tax a mans capital
directly. Whether this provision Of the
law IS unconstitutional is extremely doubt
full.
Q.-Have I the right to refrain from
paying the tax on income received before
the law passed until the courts have de-
termined whether this tax was valid? A.
No: You must pay the tax next June and
you cannot await any courts decision
Q.-Does that mean II this provision is
invalid ! win lose what l paid to the
government? A.-No. You should pay
that portion OF the tax which relates to
your income before October. 1913. under
protest. II this feature Of the law is held
to be invalid the government will then re-
pay to you this part Of the tax The gov
eminent has always been very fair in re-
funding taxes paid under any law found
to be invalid

to use Peruna, before he wrote the
above letter to The Peruna Co. So
that his apparent recovery could not
possibly have been temporary relief.
