TMEM T. STATE INCOME TAX IS PROPOSED IN SENATE BILL Senator C. J. Thielen of Platte Coun ty Plans to Redraft Wisconsin Law For Nebraska. Senator C. J. Thitlen of Platte county has prepared a second bill for an income tax. His first which pro vided for an exposure of the secrets of the federal income tax by requir ing an affidavit from citizens show ing the amount paid to the federal government contrary to the federal law which preserves the secrecy of the federal income tax. The second bill prepared by Sena tor Thielen is modeled after the Wis consin law which provides an elabo rate machinery for enforcement. Mr. Thielen would retaia the general principles of the Wisconsin law, but hopes to simplify the machinery somewhat by placing the state tax e ut uy y,Ui: lu V1" commissioner at tne neaa or me aa- ministrative department with power to projde the necessary blank forms and to make county treasurers depu O' tax collectors. All these officials are to perform their duties under the income tax law without additional compensation. Reports when made out by prop erty owners and those having in comes must be filed with the county I the tax and treasurer. That official must collect remit the income tax the t c- n m no li same as he now remits all property taxes. The county attorney and sher- 111 are requireu iu juu iue siam lax &iven power, with the county treas urers, to investigate over or under assessments. Counties are made sep- . arate taxing districts for income pur J poses. ! The new bill prepared by Senator Thielen contains the provision of the Wisconsin law relating tn Pxpnintinn of certain funds from Income and peruijts a deduction of all property taj. from the income tax. The Wis- consin law doe3 not permit an offset fo axeg Qn reaj pToperty Included in exemptions from in come estimates are pensions, life in surance money, dividends received fro .11 state and national banks, sav ings banks, and trust companies sub ject to taxation by the state, also in comes of banks, trust companies and building and loan associations, all inheritances, incomes received from the. Lnited States, and an exemption of 5100 to theeatt or HmiljrTor 1. On the first $1,000 of the final net income or any part thereof, the sum of one-half of one per cent of said final net income. 2. On the next $2,000 or any part 3. On the next $2,000, one and one-half of one per cent of the amount by which the final net in come exceeds $3,900 and does not exceed $5,000. 4. And on all such amounts of said final net income two per cent of the amount by which the said final net i income exceeds $5,000. The tax in all cases is to be com i puted by adding together the ' amounts payable under each of said classes. i An offset for personal and real i irtie iina iiaiu 10 cnuniy or rny treasurers is then allowed against the amount of the state income tax. If the legislature shnnlrl orp tn ahnl- I --a - - I ish a personal or all property tax it could raise the rate in this bill. Governor Bryan in his message to the legislature recommended the j Wisconsin income tax law with its 'graduated state income, discriminate ( j ing in favor of earned incomes and , using tne federal income tax returns as a basis of statement.

You know Witty Witch was so named because in the first place she was a witch and in the second place she was very funny and witty. Then, too, she ilked that name b cause she said it was the kind of a name which would perhaps tell peo ple that she wasn't an awful creature at all, but some one who loved fun and jokes. And she wanted people to know that she liked children and animals, too, and wouldn't hurt anyone ever I "Yes, Billie Brownie," said Witty Witch, "I want to hear about your trip." "I saw so many creatures," said Billie Brownie." that it is hard to know ; . , . . all. "Let me see, let me see," and Billie Brownie leaned back and thought about all he had seen. "There were some lovely birds," he becan. "Yes, there were beautiful birds. "You should have seen the gor geous Birds of Paradise, but vrhat funny sounds they did make!
