But it i» very closely checked by an veg arn tga of the returns from property ownership and busi From the records of appraisals of estates in a number of States and from the researches of statisticians we know that more than two-thirds of the Property of the nation is owned by Pergons with incomes of more than $3,000, who should be in- come tax payers. It is probable that the proportion should be more nearly three-fourths, but it is absolutely certain, as was shown by the report of the commission on industrial relations, Tee GnUe TOTES Te, OF THE ADULT POPULA. “THI OF ALL TH UNITED STATES. sft art scala On the basi#, therefore, that two-thirds of the Income from prop- erty goes to persons who should pay income tax, we have $20,066,000,000 from this source. The income tax law permits the deduction of an allowance for the depreciation of property and for taxes. Depreciation is, of course. chargeable only upon property subject to wear and tear. The depre clable property owned by, persons who should be subject to the income tax amounts to aboug $66,000,000,000. At the rate of 5 per cent the depreciation charge $3,200,000,000.

The other federal taxes (customs, excise and stamp taxes) are taxes upon consumption and are distributed over the whole population At the outside, income tax payers, who make up less than 2 per cent of the population, do not pay more than 10 per cent of such indi rect taxes. Of the state, county and municipal taxes, which are chiefly prop: lerty taxes, we may assume that the income tax payers pay in propor. tion to their holdings of property, that is two-thirds of the total, altho it is a notorious fact that even in the} case of local taxes the most widespread evasion is among the wealthy We have, therefore, as the amounts of the taxea paid by income tax payers the following figures: FEDERAL TAXES— +++% 80,000,000 (1-10 pald by Income taxpayers) .. 60,000,000 “I Want to Be a 9 140,000,000 Soldier Just to Be State, County and Municipal Taxes— Among the Men” Two-thirds paid by income taxpayers....... 976,000,000 Total ....... $1,116,000,000 Can you Imagine it? | Just one of the big song hits, all original, being sung by the GORMAN DUO It’s a Big Show and a Good One—Don't Mise it HILDA SPONG “DIVORCE” Is Big Sensation The income tax law allows a deduction for interest paid upon in debtedness, but no deduction for this item need be made in these caleu lations, because in making up the eum of the national income no iccome derived from interest was included, on the theory that it was a self canceling item. That is, if we include the income derived from interest jon a mortgage, we must deduct the same amount from the Income of a | farmer as part of his fixed charges.
