The operation <>f the slate income tax in the fourteen states having income tax laws Is described in. a bulletin prepared by the Indiana university bureau of business rescar h. released today. According to the report a state which,, under present conditions, attempts to raise more than 5 or 10 percent of its total taxes by the income tax route i| in danger of driving bmii;-t-s from the state and discour rg is new business from locating there.

Edie and CharIles R Metzger, show that the bulk’ t of the income tax is paid by the urban industries but. in most states.’the per eentage of taxes paid under the income i tax law is so small a part of the total taxes that the income tax doe; not I shift any large proportion of the total tax burden from country to city. •Farmers Urged To Tie 1 Cows At Home Oct. 25 Tie your cows October 25.
