Repeal of Tax
Exemption for
Bonds Sought
Davenport Committee Says
Legal Evasion Of Pay
ments Of Levy on Inter-
est Decreases Rcvc nue.
Big Incomes Reap Profit
Difficult TO Dispose of Sc
curities Not Included in
the List, Reads Report
from a STAFF Correspondent


ALBANY, April 2-Recommcndation
for state and Federal Legislation to re-
peal laws which exempt interest derived
from national, state and municipal
securities from personal income taxes
are made by the Davenport Joint lcgis-
latlvo committee on taxation and re-
trenchment. The tax exempt features
Of these securities, the committee re-
ports, have led to legal evasion of
tax payments resulting in decrease
or revenue that has made itself felt.
Another disadvantage which, in the
opinion Of the committee. arises out Of
this arrangement is the difficulty OK
perienced by private borrowers in find
ing markets for non-tax exempt securi-
ties.
Persons subject to high surfaces"
says the report, receive incomes on
which they do not pay, either In tax, in
reduced interest or higher price, the
equivalent of what they should pay
under the scale of the progressive in
come tax. Thus they in real truth
evade the tax-legnlly, of course, but
nevertheless actually.
This is precisely what has happened
in this country on a large scale. The
market has been flooded with tax-ex-
empt government bonds until the satu-
ration point has been reached not
merely among those in the highest sur
tax groups but among those who arc
subject to only moderate rates. 1t ia
now paying proposition for men Of
relatively small incomes to invest in
government tax exempt bonds. 1t is
the worth Of these bonds to these small
men which determines the market
price.
"The men Of large incom reap for
their own profit the differences be-
tween the price they now have to pay
to them, burdcncd as they are with
their high surtaX rates. Thus tax ex-
empt securities hatten out the pro-
gressive scale of income tax rates and
provide an open door for evasion and
avoidment"
To overcome these conditions the
committee suggests the following
concentrations:
"flrst-That each governmental au-
thority pay the current competitive
rate of interest on its borrowings and
TAX interest under an income tax ire
spective Of it's source
"Second-That these authorities be
allowed to apportion their taxes as pre-
ciscly as possible according to tax-pay-
ing ability without being exposed to the
dangers Of having progressive income
tax rates nulli6ed by the issuance of
tax exempt bonds by some other gov
er'mental auth ority"
In respect to the state income tax
law, the committee repeats it's recon-
mendation that a minimum income tax
Of 81 be imposed upon persons more
than twenty one years old and whose
incomes fall within the limit of ex-
emption now granted under the state
law. 1t opposes vigorously proposals
to make state income tax exemption
schedules parallel with those Of the
Federal government and discloses that
to do this would mean an annual reve-
nue. loss of about ST. 600 900

any one than too much sweet food

Then those two little Bears quar-

But by and by their stomachs

had paid for it, but it was worth the
price
