Quite a good many cases of influenza
are to He found in Union. People
are not terrified of it now as they
were u few years ago. This goes to
prove that we can get used to almost
anything, even a scourge like inflates.
Christmas is ulmost here. Five more |
days, one of them Sunday, aiul the
glad day will bo here. It is a time
of great joy, of the g.ving of gifts
and the exchange of visits. It is a
fine time to exercise the spirit of forgiveness.:
It will be a great day in
the life of everyone who can wipe
the slate clean and stait over. Most
of us need to wipe out much that i: I
upon the slate. The spirit of an unforgiving
mind is perhaps the blackest
mark that the most of us will have
to wipe out.
South Carolina apparently this year
will collect only about one-fourth of
the amount actually due from the
State income tax, according to tigures
just icceived from the Federal government
by A. F. McKissick, member
. f the house of representatives from
Greenville county, and given by him
to The Piedmont today. Wide variance
seemingly exists between the estimates
of the State lax Commission
and the Collector of Internal Revenue
for this State on the one hand and
those of the United States Commissioner
of Internal Revenue on the
other.
The Federal income tax really accrued
during the calendar year 1921
for the district of South Carolina i
fc ' HJwS&Ai'W'lillPr '
temal Revenue to Congressman J. J.
McSwain, who secured this information
at the request of Mr. McKissick,
who has been investigating this mattor
for some time. _
Using Commissioner Blair's figures '
is a basis for computation, the State
of South Carolina for the calendar
year 1921 should collect as the total ?
State income tax $3,891,921.97, which ^
is one-third of the sum collectible by
the Federal government, but, accord
ing to a statement published last week
by W. R. Bradley, officer of the Stall
Tax Commission in charge of collection
of the State income tax, the State
will collect for the year "around $1,000,000."
In support of his estimate.
Mr. Bradley aiso published a letter T~
|f (
from Maj. John J. Jones, collector
of Internal Revenue for South Carolina,
in which he said that "the ap.
proximate amount of income taxes for
the year 1921 collected by this office
will run very little in excess of $3,- ,
000,000 based on actual returns and <
assessments for the year 1921." 1
Mr. Bradley'.; statement was called \
forth by an interview given by Senator
Proctor A. Bonham of Greenville \\
county to the Greenville Piedmont In | i
wnicn ne said that he had been in- !l
formed that less than $1,000,000 had
been collected under the State income Mil
tax. whereas, he contended, between I
$8,000,000 and $1,000,000 should have d
been collected, basing the estimate on
the sum collected by the Federal gov
ernment on income. "The government "?f l
has collected in income taxes this year tfl
in the State something over $12,000,000
ard the State income tax law pro- ,v()j
vides that the sum collected for the oi
State shall be a third of the income s"
tax paid the government. It will be
r?.
seen, therefore, that the State has
fallen far short of obtaining a third Ct
of this figure," said Cenator Bonham.
For a long period Mr. McKissick 1
we
has been looking into the apparently pr
wide variance between the estimates Joi
and figures of the State Tax Commis
WE 1
aion and those of the office of the
tw
United States Commissioner of Inter- ^
nal Revenue. Upon his return to Su;
Greenville Sunday he found the fol
KOR
lowing letter awaiting him, it having
mo
been written in response to his re- <j?el
quest to Congressman McSwain that Vir
he obtain the information it contains:
I nsi
Commissioner Blair's Letter.
"December 12, 1922. A er
"Hon. John J. McSwain, fy j
'House of Represenati es.
' Washington, D. C.
"My Dear Mr. McSwain:
"With reference to your inquiry b]
telephone for the amount of Federa
income taxes- accrued in the district o
South Carolina during the calendu
vear 1921, you are respectfully ad
vised thnt assessments were mad<
from returns f.led with the Collecto
of Internal Revenue during the calen
dar year 1921 in the amount of $11,
*>84,765.93.
"In arriving at this net figure th
amount of office assessments made b;
the Commissioner of Internal Rev
cnue representing additional taxc
has been eliminated. This ftgur*
therefore, represents the income ta
really accrued during the calenda
year 1921 for the district of Sout
Carolina.
"I trust this gives you the infomm
Hon desired.
"Sincerely yours,
"D. H. Blair,
"Commissioner."
