“Your country and mine are not the only ones to work out a good system of income taxation, when you realize what is done in Russia,” said Mr E. J. Stimiman, an American engineer who has worked in Russia recently, in a lecture to Christchurch engineers on Thursday evening. “In Russia there was a desire by some sections of the community to secure a higher salary than the commonalty, but their high salaries
were reduced by a system of taxation which really ended in the balance of the salary reverting to the State after a certain maximum had been reached.”
