A review of the income taxes col lected from 1922 to 1928 by 13 Amer ican slates which had such taxes in effect during that period showed an increase from $97,000,000 in the for- 1 mer year to $183,000,000 in the lat- ! ter. This was due, the board explain- ed, to increased population, increased incomes,'more efficient collections and in some cases, increased rates.
