The above table gives the vilues for the coefficient 
of regression of the mean income on wealth. The correlation is very 
p 
high ( r is ,997 ) for the mean income values; for the mean square 
correlation of the grouped income data it is modest, r2= .25 in 
Holland. 
From the actual ^areto coefficient for wealth and the 
coefficient we can calculate the Pareto coefficiet for income 
.in accordance with equation (6>). In Holland we obtain 2.20, 
which compares with an actual Pareto coefficient (for income of 
wealth owners of 2.08. ( The coefficient for all incomes^including 
people with no taxable wealth, is not markedly different, which 
is rather surprising). 
Butch 
While the/results are not worse than could be expected^ 
the Swedish data are less straightforward. A peculiarity is here 
, . . . 
that married couples ( to some extent also children ) are jointly 
assessed for wealth tax so that their joint wealth and income is given 
in the data. This leads to a splitting up of the mas3 of wealth
