Stockholm correspondent gives
an interesting account Of the reorganr
ization of its entire military system
through special taxation Every
branch of the military. he says. In
spick and span; every regiment ID
equipped with the most modern weap-
ons and accoutrements and the entire
army Ii ready 10 take the field. This
has been made possible only through
an extra 100000 crowns approx
mately $28.250. 000) which has poured
into the Golfers of the state since the
world war began. Special taxes. laid
On the shoulders Of those best able to
bear the burden, have solved the
problem. The defense tax. voted in
1914, Is doing the work. in spite OF the
opposition from those who felt that
they were paying more than their
share OF the amount needed by the
state. For the tax has been assessed
only against individuals with an in
come to more than 5000 crowns zap
proximately sl.350) and property val
ued at more than 10000 crowns 49,
1907. There Is progressive rate to
be paid. which ascends from Is per
cent to II per cent The tax was
voted for the three years 1915, 1916
and 1917. The tax hits So 900 individ.
uals and 5000 corporations. Ameri-
cans may argue that a special tax
which hits incomes as low as $3.50
does not leave much room for exemp-
tions and provides rather a severe
burden for the great middle class.
Perhaps they do not know that the
regular Swedish income tax begins at
either an income of 500 crowns ts216)
or property holding OF 5000 crowns
t$1,620). and that it ascends for in
comes under 5000 crowns from A per
cent TO 20 per cent of the assessed
amount. Persons who have incomes
III excess Of $500 crowns are assessed
according to different scale and the
taxing percentage rises from 2,25 per
cent to per cent. which rate 1t at
tains at an assessed income of 104 500
crowns Approximately $2S.2i5). or
course, there are certain exemptions
and privileges. Sweden allows the
head Of family to deduct 100 crowns
$50 for every child. and allows GER
tain, amounts up to 800 crowns ($S1
to be deducted in localities where the
cost of living is abnormally high. But
there is little in the way of income
or property that escapes the eye of
the tax assessors In Sweden. In the
assessment of the tax against prop
erty 60 per cent Of the value of the
property Is added to the income and
the amount thus obtained forms the
assessed sum. 1t happens also that
dividends of limited liability compan'
les are taxed at least twice-tirst. in
the entire profits of the corporation.
and. secondly, as dividends distributed
to each shareholder The taxation OF
corporations Is graduated from rs per
cent UP to 5S5 per cent In case OF
profits of more than 100 per cent
Both the income and the property tax
are based on the taxpayers owl. dec.

Fate OF Annie Laurie.

The familiar song OF Annie Lau.
rte" says the London Chronicle. was
written by soldier In Flanders to
his ladyloye at home. The writer was
William Douglas. and Annie Laurie
was one of the three daughters of
Sir Robert Laurie OF Maxwelton. Sad
to relate. Annie did not marry her
ardent lover. Some say that Douglas
was killed In Flanders. but whether
or not that Is so, Annie was led to
the altar In 1909 by James Fergassor
OF Craiedarroch.
