Soule, George | July 17, 1948 issue

The article focuses on the book "Trouble Spots in Taxation," by Harold M. Groves, based on taxation policies. Taxation may legitimately be used to remedy inequalities; it has not yet gone very far in that direction, but it may even now curb incentive. It may be employed for other public purposes; the author in the book is for a "mixed economy" in which fiscal policy is used for stabilization. It has been viewed that some diversification is desirable, especially in obtaining revenue for state and local units.
