Tax on Bachelors in Italy May be Doubled
Times Cable , Received 9 a.m. LONDON, Monday. FtE Rome correspondent of “The Times” states that in connection with a Bill doubling the tax on bachelors, which is now before the Senate, Signor Mussolini complains that even in Italy the number of marriages is diminishing, in spite of the Government’s various ' social and moral inducements to marriage. He says he does not expect that the new Bill will make bachelors terminate their state of isolation; but it will at least make them financially assist the Government’s social policy. Only unmarriageables, those permanently unable to work, and inmates of poor-houses and hospitals are exempt from the tax.
