Rich Should Pay More in Taxes, April 25, 1924

Tax Reduction

There are ways to keep the big incomes from evading taxes, and if Congress fails to apply them the inevitable inference is that the failure is studied and deliberate. Conceding that taxation’s object is to produce revenue, it is entirely rational to make people pay in proportion to their ability to pay. That is a fair test of obligations of the government.

From the Norlina Headlight, Friday, April 25, 1924
