Yet we are have fierce discussion of two propo: which are positively certain to discou or destroy such sentiment, if put thru Abolish the “nuisance taxes.” What are they but taxation of luxuries? Taxes upon yachts, jewelry, cosmetics, benzoate of soda syrups, admission to prizefights and other shows, etc. What else are such than taxation upon luxuries and upon show-going people, 75 per cent at least of whom pay no other sort of direct tax? To label such “nuisances” is simply a bid : for support of the unreasoning and unpa- triotic. The second proposition is that to raise the exemption granted unmarried folks. Why any special consideration for those who support themselves only, if there is + any justice at all in the claim that the burden should fall upon those best able to carry it? Raise the exemption of single folks to $2,000, and what do we have? Millions more of those getting $8 to $12 per day added to the millions with such incomes already avoiding all taxation. Verily, the present proposed policy seems to aim at “going easy” on both the very big and the smaller potential tax- j payers. It is the in-betweens who com- + pose the mass and who’carry the bulk of the burden in proportion to capacity prop ig to A self-made man is like a self-made cigaret—a little Bull very poorly covered up, but quite a neces ‘ sity, SIMPLY WONDERFUL ECRETARY MELLON reports that every one of his revenue agents is opposed to income tax publicity.
