planned to the Royal commission on in
come tax that his income derived from
property in the United States is so de-
preciated by double taxes, once in
America and once In Great Britain, that
he cannot continue to reside in this

Describing his situation and that of
his brother, Washington NJ G. Singer,
he said their incomes were reduced TO
about 20 to 80 per cent of what they
would have been If untaxed. America

should double the incomes we Actually
