Sir, -- If "An Income Tax Payer" will again refer to the Act he quotes, and read also section 41 of the same Act, and the marginal note to, as well as the whole of, section 45, he will find that the extract hit has made from the proviso to this latter section only refers to the manner in which the wife's profits are to be assessed. The profits are still the wife's, if her separate estate, and she, I submit, would not be debarred from claiming exemption or abatement if the amount of her income from all sources, irrespectively of that of her husband's, entitled, her to do so. The Married Woman's Property Acts extend the doctrine of separate estate, and take away from the husband profits and property which but foe these Acts would be legally his own, and for "which he would be liable to pay income tax personally and not as a trustee for his wife.
Yours truly,
