Washington.-An income tax is now
Cne of the provisions of the constitu-
tion of the United States.
Wyoming's ratification of the in
come tax amendment-the sixteenth
change In the constitution and the
first since the reconstructiOn-com.
pleted a list of thirty-six states-three
fourths of the Union-which have ap-
proved the provision.
Congress now will enact law to
levy the tax, and it probably will be-
come effective during the extraordi-
nary session to be called by Presi-
dent-elect Wilson in March.
The tax itself, its provisions and its
limitations, are left to Congress
The new law probably would super
sede the corporation tax and provide
for tax on all incomes above $4,000,
although there has been some senti-
ment in favor of making the limit as
low as $4,000. Congressional leaders
who have been preparing for the final
ratification by the states each year,
estimate an income tax would bring
in about s1O0,oOO,oO0 a year to the
government
Now that the tax is provided by the
constitution, the proposed excise tax,
framed by the Democratic leaders in
1912 to meet the Supreme Courts de-
cision which held former income tax
unconstitutional, will be dropped and
some of it's provisions may be in
cluded in the new law.
West Virginia ratified the amend
ment few days ago. One house In
New Jersey and one in New Mexico
have approved it.
Wyoming's ratification was wholly
unexpected at this time.
The provision authorizing an in.
come tax as now made part of the
federal constitution will be known as
the sixteenth amendment, and reads
as follows:
Article XVI-The Congress shall
have power to lay and collect taxes
on incomes, from whatever source de-
rived, without apportionment among
the states adm without regard to any
census or enumeration.

Denver-The House unanimously

Under its provisions, If it passes the
Senate, Congress will be asked to en-
act laws to eliminate all traces of the
M ormon practice. Representative
Mann was prompted to introduce the
measure. it is said, after Joseph
Smith, leader of the Mormon faith in
Utah, had made it known to him that
more than eleven hundred Mormon
women had been married in 1912 to
men who already had from two to five
wives. The Mormon leader declared
that despite the decree of the church
that the practice must be stopped.
many were clinging to the old custom
and that unless Congress passed laws
prohibiting plural marriages the evil
would never be overcome.
