Recalling that the corporation
.
ta'x amendment was tacked on the
I Payne-Aldrich bill . for the admit .
ted purpose . of . defeating . , inherit-
' -
anceior : 'j iacome legislation , Rep-
resentative" ' Gilbert M. . Hitchcock
of Nebraska , in . a speeclr on the
I fktar.oLtbe House , which evoked
. . .gxeat/applause on the democratic
f
side , charged that - now that the
corporation , tax . had . . "achieved its
' ' ] pQrposetne - plan ls- to emasculate
-.and Destroy the efficiency of the
- . . . roy . .
-Jlaw itself.
: ; Within > half an hour after Mr.
Hitchcock : . had concluded his
speech , his statement was to all
. -practical ends verified when the
" republicans passed an amendment
'to corporation tax law restrict-
i
I , . - ing the operation of its publicity
! _ feature. As passed the corpora-
' a
I tion bill provided that the returns
" : shall be open to inspection only ; ,
- : upon the order of the president. J
As President Taft himself declared i , '
that the publicity feature pf the
corporation'tax was its best asset ,
.the usefulness of the measure has i i
N been greatly impaired , to say the !
least. And in the meantime the j
ceuntry has been cheated out of
income tax legislation.
"The defeat of the inheritance I
: " 'ta.x , " i ' - said tJitchcock : , _ " ancl. the
' . abandonment of the income tax
was : , in' , ' ' . my opinion , a great nation- ,

recei -jproper.ti ! : which others
( have earned and saved. It tends
in a slight way to check the cen-
. + , ' . .
tralization of wealth. There'is no
doubt ? as to its constitutionality.
"An income tax also falls upon
wealth and not upon poverty .No
valid argument hasev r been
made , or can be , against the in-
come ' . tax. , It appeals , to . our . . reason
' and our sense of justice. ] It' not
only taxes men in proportion to
their ability to pay , but also in
' iproportion to the benefits they re-
ceive in , living under , " a govern-
ment of law and order.
. " . I fear , Mr ' : Speaker . , we do
not realize . the injustice . of our
. ' present ' systerauof : national taxa
tion. Our tariff taxes , by which
we raise several hundre.d million
dollars % and ' ' internal
a year ; , our
revenue , system . . by which the re
mainder of our national revenue
is raised , are both a tax on the
things that people use or consume.
.
"They increase the cost of liv-
ing. They fall heavily upon the
the poor , although. hardly felt by
the well-to-do. The poor man
with a .large . family . often pays
more national taxes than the rich
bachelor with no family , because
the poor man and his family con
sume more. , The poor man on . a
salary , the 'tvorking girlsor the
working woman feels the national
taxes in the shape of an increased
cost of living. These taxes in-
crease the cost of food , drink ,
clothes , houses , hardware , furni-
ture , carpets , shoes , glass , paints ,
and a thousand other things , in-
cluding rent.
. '
"This system of raising money
to support an army , navy and
government has always seemed to I
me unjust , because it is like taxing
the people of the countrymen ,
women and children - so much per
person , regardless of the benefits
they receive from the government
and rngardleFS of their ajbility to
pay.
k'The income tax offered one
means of remedying this evil.
Every democrat in congress and
j
many progressive republicans
were ready to insert an income
tax provision in the tariff law. In
the senate the democrats and pro
gressive republicans developed an ,
outspoken and admitted majority
in favor of an income tax. It be-
came evident that such a provision
would be incorporated in the tariff
law unless extraordinary measures
were taken to prevent" it. These
extraordinary measures were taken .
by President Taft. :

special message from the presi-
I
dent to congress on June 16 , of '
last year , recommending against
incorporating an income tax in the
tariff act , but instead to incorpor-
ate a small tax on the net incomes '
of corporations. As a specia.1
reason . 'fo . : , the passage of this act , '
president . Taft urged that it
would enable not only the govern-
ment , but the public , to get an an-
nual report 4-rom , ! . " each ' * corporation
* * v *
and thus , secure'tull . r knowledge of .
. .
' .ir
the real 5 \ ; bp.sin-ess. transactions ,
gains , and . " "profitsof every cor- '
* < *
* * i
po ration , inj-the ; country. This , he
said , would be a valuable step to I
ward the super vision . . . and . control .
J . ' " ' " "J01
of . the corporations. , ' i "T"
" The subterfuge was * effective.
The friends of the inc' me .tax' in
the senate found that enough
votes had been won , 'by -the
president's 'recommendation to
make it ! impossible for . them , ' to . - - in- .
* -
corporate 3 . the income tax clause .r * in
the tariff act , and it was in that
way defeated. By this same sub-
terfuge also the inheritance tax'
which had been adopted' : { by the
house at the president's reccom- . . .
mendation , was eliminated. That
was less than one year ago. " Wha't ,
now ; 'has : become of this i. device Jf ? 1
which , was used to defeat not only
the inheritance tax but also the in-
" -
come Itax ?
The first thing that happened
to it was that it was attacked in
court , and within a few weeks we
shall know whether the tax it im
poses is constitutional or not.
' . . "The next thing is this attack
on its publicity provision. The ,
proposed amendment < will lock up
the information given by the cor-
porations so it shall only Be made"
public upon order of the president
himself. The president is given
exclusive information about cor
porations , which he can use , if de
sired , for political purposes.
"I am not , moreover , ready by
killing the publicity clause to help
this administration out of a hole.
It has used its corporation tax
law , and especially the publicity
provision , as a weapon to kill the
income tax and the inheritance tax.
I am not ready now to help emascu-
late the corporation law by taking
aut of it the vital essential of pub
licity which the president at that
time advised the house of repre-
sentatives and the senate was the
important consideration for its . :
