“He has something there,” is the
comment heard from a11 those to
whom L. H. Hazard has outlined his
idea of what a .simplified federal in­
come tax report might be.
The idea is for individual income
taxpayers only, but if it was enacted
into law it would save many a head­
ache.
Mr. Hazard’s plan would be for the
individual, after he had figured his
annual income and assembled all his
deductible expenses, and other items if
any, to forward the figures to the in­
ternal revenue office of his district,
where the office clerks, who are sup­
posed to know how to figure such
things, could quickly arrive at the
taxpayers income tax and so notify
him. The clubs and office personnel
have to figure the report out anyway
and, aside from the little effort re­
quired to notify the taxpayer what
his tax amounted to, there would be
nothing in addition to the clerk’s reg­
ular ditties.
We recommend this idea to Con­
gressman Harris Ellsworth with the
