The revenue under this paragraph to be ralsed during the war will not be appreciable, The State of Connecticut, through its manufacturers, has no complaint to make against equitable taxation. With her sister States, she has borne udgingly her share in the rais- ing of revenue for war purposes. The figures in the office of the Collector of Internal Revenue show this. In 1915 the total internal revenue re- ceipts from the State were $3,222 249.6 In 1916 the total receipts werc 295,874.32. On April 6, 1917, the Government formally deciared to exlst the of war thrust upon it by the Imperial German Government. | From April 1, 1917, to June 30, 1918, | there collected in Connecticut under internal revenue laws the sum of $84,522,102.74. Of this amount $15,926,778.98 represented. the total ordinary and war revenue receipts, except income and excess-profits tax, or more than three times the receipts | for 1916. and the remainder, or $68,- 595 represented income and receipts. In short, in war and inter- nal-revenue taxes from April, 1817, to June, 1918, more than fifteen times its total payments in 1916. | Ter record is her reason for insist- ing on equity in the pending bill, The industries of the State have been brought to their present high development through the genius of‘ their founders and the energy and | aggressiveness of their subsequent | manager Whether one considers the ma- chine shops of Hartford, New Haven, { New Brit Waterbury, and Bridge- | port, employing thousands of skilled | workmen; the munition plants Hartford, New Haven, Meriden, and Bridgeport; the brass-rolling mills of Eristol, Waterbury, Torrington, sonia and throughout the Naugatuck Valley; the mills of the eastern sec- tion of the State; the foundries in all large cities, and the large estab- lishments for producing products for | domestic use throughout the whole | State, one is impressed by the spirit of the men responsible for such suc- cess. Far removed from the sourc of supply for their raw material; dis- tant from the coal fields, without which power is impossible; handi- capped by inadequate transportation and forced to compete with industries more happily favored by nature, Connecticut plants, thanks to the ability, integrity, and courage of both owners and operators, not only estab- lished themselves high in our nation- al life, but occupied such a position at the outbreak of the war that the State at once became the arsenal of the land. Those already making munitions of war readily expanded; those occupied in domestic trade took ps at once, wherever possi- ble, to transform all work to essen- tial war work. Connecticut often called the | land of steady habits. Not the least of these is its habit of success. | | { GET $515 FOR MORTGAGE 014 Paper is Auctioned Off and Then state was excess-profits Connecticut paid tax its i Sold—Talmud Torah Celebration is Held.
