Four different courses are open to the government, One is the abolition of the 58.165 tax which since its incep- tion has been a source of annoyan- ce to the collector as well as the tax payers; another is the restora- tion of penny postage the benefit from which would be shared by every citizen of the dominion, then there is the income tax on which some reduction would ‘be welcom- Steals $40,000 But Drops Dead In Taxi IPHILADELPHIA, ‘Dec 22—Deat'n from heart disease in a taxicab Sunday ended the flight of Edward F‘.
