A method of avoiding the new Portu-

tax varies from TO 10 per cent on all
incomes exceeding 5000 escudos, that
IS to say about $40 (S200). Journal
lists and men of letters are exempted
from the tax. The number of Portu-
gnese journals and of books of verse
and prose issued yearly is already
formidable, but in future il is expected
that even the busiest merchants and
