ARTICLE XIII. ~,
The few preceding articles dealt with
the calculation Of the tax. In this con-
nection we became familiar with the
computation Of exemptions and credits
We saw that some credits related to the
normal tax and some to normal tax and
surtax. We must now become familiar
with Section 222 of the act This sec-
tion provides that citizens shall be en-
titled to- credit for the ''full amount Of
any income, war profits and excess prof
its taxes paid during the taxable year
to any foreign country Or to, any pos
session of the United States" In other
words such taxes paid to foreign couti-
tries and United States possessions are
considered. for practical purposes. as
having been paid to the United States.
A similar credit is allowed to residents
OF the United States (non-citizens), hut
only with respect to the takes paid by
such residents 10 possessions OF the
United States.
A somewhat similar credit is allowed
alien residents of the United States who
are eitlzens OF foreign countries. Such
alien residents are permitted to reduce
their tax liability to the United States
by the amount of income and profits
taxes paid to those foreign countries,
provided a similar credit is allowed by
such foreign countries to citizens there
In OF the United States. -
Paragraph 4 of Section 222 reads as
follows:
20 In the case Of any such indi-
vidual who is a member of partnership
or beneflc y of an estate or trust,
his proportiouate share of such taxes
OF the partnership or estate or trust
paid during the taxable year to for
elgn country or to any possession. of
