Lu cey. Of N6W Britain, Connecticut, a public spirited <clt!r,en who volunteered to be the "guinea pig" for the experiment. Mr. I^acey is president ol a hardware und tool manufacturing couipa ny which has 1,100 stockholders audi 800 employes. His salary is $27,<000 a year. In addition to being one /of the 2,000,000 citizens who pay a per-j sonal Federal income tax, he. is one of the 3.5 per ceut of that group who earn over $10,000 a year and who pay 86 per cent of the total income tax. He is typical of that group of business men who keep the wheels turning in industry to employ the bulk of the nation s inuuStiiai caiuoio. Here is the way Life pictures him paying his principal annual taxes: Personal Federal income tax $2,086. Tax on his home, $665, On each ?f 1,825 packs of cigarettes, a Federal tax of 6 cents a pack, $110. Liquor for business entertaining, though temperate himself, 58 cents a quart Fed* eral tax, $174. One-cent a gallon Federal tax on gas, $26. Theatre adr missions tax, $45. Club dues tax, Toilet preparations tax, $30. ( | In the fiscal year 1937, his company earned $170,000 taxable income; paid $58,000 in direct Federal taxes, and local and state taxes of $29,000, or a total of $87,000. While his company's sales rose 26 per cent over 1936, Its taxes rose 88 per cent. I Life further pictured where some of Mr. Lacey's tax money went: Government employes got $387 of it; WPA reliefers, $567; war veterans. $185; social security, $30, which Mr. Uue.v pays on himself, and an additional $32 for social security deficit; public works, $283; Federal road funds, $90; national defense. $308. He paid $142 into the $450,000,000 pot for the farmers. The public debt has increased Tcr such a ~p(TTnr=*3?,00tt7~ 000.000?that Mr. Lacey pays $300 for interest alone on it. It would look like the government and all the people had a very direct interest in encouraging industry ill the nation, both large and small, if for no other reason than to have sources able to pay the staggering tax burdens of government todayMonroe Enquirer.
