Sheffield, England, April 1S.-The
collection of income tax from wage
earners is causing many heartburn
ings in the prosperous industrial dis
trict around Sheffield lnvestiga
tions of the income tax man there
have shown many incomes almost IA
bulous when compared with peace
time wages.
After allowance are made for chill
dren, insurance, expenditure for nee
essary tolls, and other deduction, it
is found that individual workmen are
paying taxes on incomes ranging up
to $4,000 a year, the highest figures
being reached by the so-called ton
mage men," who are paid on the pro-
iuction of material.
A list of filters in one Sheffield
factory shows incomes ranging from
S2,4OO to $4,000 a year, while other
crafts receive cores sponding wages.
Many of the best paid workers are
Swedes and Dutchmen, who work the
to the limit and are not
trammeld by any rules or regulations
as to amount of output.
