In Nurp1y's announces
ment, among other equally
false inanuatiuns. he says,
Il will not vote to put an
income tax on everybody
else ii the country and then
vote TO exempt my own sala~
ry as a Congressman"
This is not only false but
an insult to every member Of
Congress in both branches.
It is especially an insult to
Senator Simmons and Rep
rtsentativo Kitchen who had
charge # the framing of the
income tax bill in their re-
Specfivo branches of Com
gress. After this report was
published in the papers the
Treasury Department in~
eestigated the matter and
decided that the bill idclud~
ed the salaries Of tie menu
hrrs Of Congress and they
have paid up as promptly as
airy others liable to the tax.
The chances are Murphy
knew this when he made his
ugly announcement. Who
is stirring up strife? Is there
ATTY thing a professional
politician will not stoop to?
When he says an income was
put on "everytody else in
the country" he deliherate-
ly makes another miss state~
ment of facts, He knows
that all under a $4,000 in>
come are exempted. A man
who makes such rash state
ments must be a weakling
or thinks the people are a
bunch of idiots.
