Larger Amount

The net result would be a larger
amount of tax per $1,000 on The
combined income than formerly
was demanded.
Government officials have eSti-
mated that Sl.14s.300 900 add
tional revenue would result from
the use of the proposed surtaA
rates and the mandatory JOINT in
come return.
OF this amount $500. 900 00C
would be directly attributable tC
the Joint return feature.
IT seems reasonable 10 assume
that very heavy real burden
would fall on married couples in
urban centers. if the compulsory
joint return proposal is adopted
this because standards Of living
and living costs have neceSsitated
both marriage partners cOntribut-
ing TO the family income If such

Double Increase

These people would be actually

by the necessity of filing a joint

There are, moreover, other re-
'verberations resulting from such
compulsory joint return proposals.
There is the effect upon the tax
payers in the So-called COM

Al present in these states

The latest blow TO this un-

struck by a railway locomotive at
the Livernois crossing OF the
Wabash Railroad, Friday night.

First OF tho tragedies Of the
Mohr family came in 1892, when
Frank Mohr. the father. a sign

in a holdup in which an S-year-old
boy was killed.
The fact Mohr himself had no
gun made no difference TO the
law. As participant in the
holdup killing he was. in the eye,
of the law, equally guilty with the
actual gunman and therefore was
sentenced TO life Imprisonment.
Mrs. Augusta Mohr struggled

Joint Returns in NelD Tax
Bill TO Hit Hard

The following table indicates the
relative volume of federal tax
burden on joint incomes earned by
working married couples as II now
exists Under the current rates with
the present legal privilege of filing
separate returns for husband and
wife. and as il will exist under the
proposed new rates If husbands
and wives are compelled 10 file
Joint returns as contemplated in
the pending tax bill. The figures
show that the total tax 10 be paid

to conform 10 preconceived no
tionS.
This particular segment OF the
population, whose income is AL
ready greatly depleted by the ne
ceSsities of life, would feel very
sharply any increase in taxes.
While il is obvious that married
couples, partners OF which each
earn, let us say, in excess OF Sl0,-
900. would be the victims OF a
greater tax increase in actual
monetary terms. the relative real
burden would be greater on lower
middle-income groups.

The proposed feature Would

separate returns or Joint returns.
When based on the proposed tax
rates, their combined tax would be
S275 if filed by separate returns,
but sos if filed jointly
In other words, the JOINT return
tax based on proposed rates would
constitute an increase of Il per
cent over the separate returns tax
and an increase OF $50 per cent
over the separate returns tax
based on present rates.
If the two married people each
were earning $1,000. the increase
resulting from the new proposals
would be 1872 per cent over the
present rate. and if they were
earning 81 900 each. the resulting
increase would be 226 per cent.
