Income Tax Law Crude and Obscure

By STUART H. PATTERSON.

H. PATTERSON. Income Tax Expert

THE income tax fa w has arrived, and I think it has come to stay in one form on another. BUT THE PRESENT LAW WILL HAVE TO BE CHANGED. I criticise the law. but in. a general way defend the treasury department for the efforts it has made to make the law workable. IN OLDEN TIMES THE GREAT INJUSTICE WAS THAT THE FEW POWERFUL RICH UNJUSTLY TAXED THE MANY POOR. UNDER OUP i MODERN AND ENLIGHTENED CIVILIZATION THE MANY IN PC W ER ARE ATTEMPTING UNJUSTLY TO TAX THE FEW RICH, AND ONE CONDITION IS AS UNJUST AS THE OTHER.
