Miss Kellems has refused to pay income taxes for three years, claiming instead that the government owes her more than 183,000. Exemptions granted married taxpayers for their dependents are unconstitutional unless somehow offset by a tax break for single men and women, the taid.

Failure to show similar ex- emptions to single taxpayers, ihe said, violates the 14th and 16th amendments.
