Senator Couzens is advocating tin exemption of all incomes under $5.00( which will appeal to most of th< people of the country and its fine unless a lot of the senators and congressmen don't oppose it because the Michigan senator is for it. He i.‘ also advocating a general rcductioi of the tax and his arguments seem: very good. We have already licket the big war debt to an extent whirl would permit the reduction of taxes and those who have been panting sot breath for several years, will surely appreciate it.
