As in the Wisconsin law, the income and per- sonal property taxes run concurrent- ly, so that the income tax.can be paid with personal property tax receipts, If the personal property tax is great- er than the income tax, the taxpayer will not be required to pay an income ax. The bill provides for the following income exemptions: “The proceeds of life insurance pol- icies paid to individual beneficiaries upon the death of the insured; the amount received by the insured as ‘a return of,any premium or premiums paid by him under life ‘insurance, en- dowment or annuity contract, either during the term or at maturity of the term mentioned in the contract, or upon the surrender of the contract, the value of any property acquired by gift, bequest, or descent; (but the income trom a]l the above enumer- ated preperty shall be taxable) in- terest upon the obligations of the United States or its possesions; se- curities issued under the provisions of the Federal Farm Loan act of July 17th, 1916, and amendments thereto; and the compensation of all officers and employes’ of the United States, such part thereof as may be In computing the vance is made for uch as the Hy paid ift car ig on any busi- or trade, nét including personal, family expenses; ull inter paid within the year ‘on tax-payer's taxes paid within the edi by the authority-of the States; los actually paid ring the year, in ‘ed in ‘busi- or trade, or arising from casu- losses actually sustained in ttions entéred into for profit, tothe tax ‘payer actually ascertained to be worthless reasonable allowance of the exhaus- tion, wear ‘and tear, and the obsql- escence of property, and all income from sources without the state.
