Washington. May 2e.-The amount
of gold flowing into the treasury these
days from ordinary sources OF taxa
ton has eclipsed all previous records.
For the first "a days Of May has ag-
gregated s59,o57.267. bringing the to-
tai for the fiscal year up to $794, $751;
337. or approximately s2o0,000.0 900
more than a year ago which then
showed a new high record. The chief
source Of revenue thus far in May has
been the income tax which has yield
ed s19 100000 against about $4,000
900 for the corresponding period last
year.
The tremendous increase is at
tributed to the patriotism of the tax
payers, who believing the government
needs the money, are making their
payments month earlier this year
than formerly.
Officials estimate that the income
tax will yield approximately $685., 5,000,-
900 this year. which is more than
$6O.0O0.000 in excess of the sum esti-
mated last fall when the amendment
