add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the annual report of John Garner of Texas, who has questioned the Treasury tax refunds. He disclosed first that in making up his total of receipts, he had included not merely the income, excess-profits, and estate taxes, on which virtually all refunds apply, but also had included the war-time "nuisance taxes," such as those on theater and baseball admissions, automobiles and accessories, tennis rackets, liquor and tobacco, toilet articles, cosmetics, chewing gum, and candy. Actually, the amount of income, excess-profits, and estate taxes collected in that period was less than $33,000,000,000.
