The Western Hemisphere Trade Corporation, Edward C. Blank, Ii

Vanderbilt Law Review

The existing complexity involved in the taxation of corporate income derived from sources without the United States has motivated Congress to undertake an extensive review of our governmental policy pertaining to this area of taxation.
