If you wish to know how. tax conscious go up on the second floor of the Federal Building and | take a look into the office of Howard Wil- | son, the Key West income-tax man. With the deadline expiring next Mon- day, the rush is on, and, though Key West : is. crowded with busy men, ‘probably is. the busiest, Though the amounts’ paid’ on’ last year’s income have increased immensely, as compared with former years, yet the sums paid now are merely a foretaste of what is to come as the war goes on. As Kip- ling said in his ““Absent-Minded Beggar,” written 43 years or so ago, when the Boer War was at its height, it is a case of “pay, Pay, pay.” The tax in Britain in those days was « bagatelle compared with what it is today. Incidentally, what we are paying now, and what we likely will be paying, beginning on July 1, is far lower than what the English- man is paying. Meanwhile, the house ways and._means Mr. Wilson committee, after turning down the Carlton : | version of the Rum! pay-as-you-earn plan, is still undecided on what action to take to | bony the daxes to help Uncle Sam to take cafe/of the vast expetiditures for the war. Robert.L.. Doughton, chairman of the com- at tHe conclusion of Mon- day’s:session,‘ We'll sleep over it and pray over if. As The Citizen has declared several | | times, we who remain at home and pay taxes are really the fortunate ones in this war. We have minor inconveniences with | | which to contend, while our men at the ' front, in addition to shaking hands with | death, sometimes are glad to get hardtack and bully beef and glad, too, to have a chance to sleepin a trench, with mud water up to their chins. So, to use 4 version.of The Virginian’s warning, When you pay, smile! This column advises everybody to read | the Bible, Shakespeare and The Citizen. Everything in life has there were no lazy people in the world there would be no energetic individuals. Civilized persons might save time and morey by determining their disputes through the tossing of a coin or the roll of dice. This would be hard on attorneys at law but would save a lot of energy. The United States is the only nation that pays for territory it has conquered. We paid. $20,000,000 for the relinquishing of all a purpose.
