HALF MILLION REFUND
FOR STATE TAXPAYERS

About 100000 of the $2S.122, 500
which will be refunded to payers of
federal taxes in all parts Of the coun-
try, will go to residents of Wisconsin,
it was estimated Wednesday. Presi-
dent Harding Tuesday asked congress
for an appropriation of S2S,122,50O out
of which to refund taxes collected il
legally during the fiscal year ended
June 80, 1921. While George Resi-
mer, chief office secretary in the Mil
waukee internal revenue office, would
not estimate the amount that would
go to Wisconsin taxpayers, he said
that the income tax, the principal tax
collected in this state during the ifs
cal year of 1921, was S57,131,042. The
tax for the entire country was So
22S.137.673. On this basis, Wiscon-
sins share of the refund ought to be
about 100000.

commission. However, the commits
sion held that the responsibility
