the $4,000 to $4,000 levels,
which include the largest number
of income taxpayers. In 1880,
the latest available date, a total
of 1,070,239 of the country's s.
707,5 income taxpayers in that
year reported incomes between
$4,000 and $4,000. A total of
9O9,155 reported incomes between
$1,000 and $4,000, while 550,997
reported incomes between $4,000

ity of "white collar" workers and
most of the wage earners were in
cluded in these classes.
Even after the recent increases
in income taxes which the admin

has not found the tax burden too
heavy in many cases and is pay
