TO TAX SPIRIT MEETINGS
Government VIII Collect When ADJ
mission Fees Are Charged

Spiritualists, clairvoyants and medi-
inns who charge admission to their
seances must pay 10 per cent of their
proceeds TO the government just as
managers of theatres or concert halls,
according to Internal Revenue Collector
Lederer.
Mr.. Lederer said that an order had
been received from Washington re-
Gently charging him to collect these
taxes in the same manner as he has
been collecting other sales taxes right
along. 1t was supposed UP to this
time that spiritualists were beyond the
pale Of the prosaic law and in their
communication with higher spheres
they lifted themselves above the shoe
dealer and chewing gum maker who
must pay his taxes monthly.
