But in the legal sense— w e cannot evade— we cannot cheat— we cannot underestimate this tax. The collectors, clever and sly, who computed here, have gone far beyond our power to add and subtract. “ Our creditors w ill little note nor long remember what we pay here, but the Bureau o f Internal Revenue can never forget what we report here. It is for us, the taxpayers, rather to be devoted here to the tax return, which the government has thus far so nobly spent. “ It is rather for us to be dedicated to the great task remaining before us, that from these vanishing dollars we take increased devotion to the few remaining that we here highly resolve that next year w ill not find us in a higher income tax bracket. “ That this taxpayer, underpaid, shall figure out more deductions and that taxation of the people, by the congress, for the government, shall not cause our sol vency to perish.”— A.
