may escape moro severe 'punishment

makes his release harmlosa.

FAVORS INCOME TA&
..Expert Report Issued by the Indue-
. trial Commission.
Syrflips-McRae Press Ass'n.
Washlncjton March 20 The Indus-
trial commission has made public c.
report upon the taxation of rorpora-!
tlons prepared by its expert agent
Mr. George Clapperton Tbe report
make) a volume of 17k pages. Tho
greater part of It is devoted to a sum-
mary of the tax system of the states of
Massachusets Connecticut Ohio In-
diana. New Jersey Pennsylvania
New York Michigan. Illinois Wiscon-
sin Iowa and Texnt.
Mr. Clappertoti says that he found
the general property tax system pre-
vailing In all the states but tnat U.ere
cro distinctive features in the various
states which are especially marked In
the taxation of corporate property. Ha
does not Indorse tho system of levy-
ing a fixed rate upon net earnings
which is In voguo in Delaware anil Vlr-
glnla. finding Hint whUe tho Bystthirfclty ui.lch jftcftft'-sueh n herme for
is theoretically satisfactory. It does
not niootf tho varied buslnoss develop-
ments of corporations."
He also finds the general 'property
tax" satisfactory. On this point ho
says:
"It is clear that under this system
there are numerous forms of wealth
that do not and cannot be made to
bear a Just share of the public burdens
escape taxation ami some forms
which when reac bed at all under the
prevailing general proprty tax are
not equally and uniformly but un-
justly and disproportionately taxed as
compared with othei property. The
Inevitable result Is that real estate
and some forms of personalty are un-
duly burdened with taxation."
Upon the whole Mr. Clapperton con-
cludes that tin income tax is the most
equitable saying:
"Thoro is a growing class pf oltl-
zuns who recolve Inrge Incomes: qr sal-
aries nnd onjoy all tho advantage!) of
socloty nnd good government whe
I though possessed of abundant ability
to pay taxes nre under oxlstlng sys-
tem practically oxempt from taxntlon
or Inadequately taxed. This class Is
receiving and must continue to rocolvo
especial attention in the revision or
reformation of taxing systems In the
several states. While a tax on income
Is conceded to bo Juct and equitable In
principle It has been received with dls
favor n(l regRra0d as ImpracUcal In
u OIerBton jt u apparent however.
to the areful student of common-
wealth taxation that because of Its
Justice and the Incn-aHing efficiency
of state administrative methods that
are being evolved the Idea of a lim
ited suplementary state Income tax Is
growing in favor and coming to be
more generally regarded as a practi-
cal measure under state supervision."
