Members of the House were loath to
express an opinion as to the possibil-
in of the ratification of 1111 amendment
permitting the federal government to
lay a tax on incomes. in fact there
seemed a general and deep-seated
ignoranCe as to what the whole trouble
was about. From Speaker Banks

say anytbiuk’at all on the subject
mixed up the 1111101111- tnx amendment
to the United states conltitution with
the corporation tax amendment to the
tariff bill. Here are some of the ex
pressions which. while they throw no
