The attempts to “equalize*' the tax by state boards only serve to Intensify the Injustices and inequality. Moreover, the tax Is ft. veritable “school for perjury.” This language has become familiar. It has been used by a. dozen commis­ sions in aB many Btates, The California commission favors complete separation of state from iq-, cai taxation. It vtould give counties and cities the exclusive right to tax real and personal property, or' real property alone, and reserve for the state corporations and franchise taxes. Minor suggestions are added, and all are ably defended.. "*A tax commission' was named by the Massachusetts legislature to con­ sider reforms Immediately practicable rather than ‘profound, and fundamental changes in the system, of taxation. The legislature- believes that It 3 is desir­ able to make .Improvements In the present system which shall prove stepping- stones to more radical changes. The report recommends a number of new taxes' and of modifications that are calculated to render.the state and the counties more independent of each other in taxation. Home rule is recog­ nized as thp Ideal to work* for, and Independence is to be made complete In the future. Among the specific-rec­ ommendations are these; The taxation of billboards’ the extension of the in- , heritance-tax to direct." successions; I the Imposition* of a franchise .tar on" " express companies; a graded tax on automobiles; a tax on stock transfers Similar to that which has proved so .successful in New York; and, finally, the retention by the state-of all fran­ chisettaxes on railroad, telegraph and telephone companies. The commission estimates that the, state Will gain over |'d,000,000 annually from these new sources of revenue, and such, gain wity enable it to abolish the direct.tax on real and personal property,’ except for local purposes.—* Indianapolis Star. * r. 32X0UJRSXO2f TO fl.SO Bound Tnp, Sunday 2S, Leaves CedatvIUe 7:60 a. m* 1 FEDERALAND STATE TAXES * i. , &yw. jm - hays , ■ TJ.

In Its cariy days, the country belpg small and jeopardized by external foes, the general government reserved the right to levy Indirect taxes, as on Imports, on ajephol and on tobacco. Tho state* and lesser political division*, on the other hand, raise their revenues by mere direct taxation, as on personal property, on incomes pf corporations --f ------- u„ jnheris- anceB.. It so happens that since the federal government .apd thq state were a! lowed these source* of Income vast economic change* have taken place, placing the federal government great­ ly at' an advantage as compared with all the states combined In securing taxes, "With the enormous develpp. ment of manufactured products and the' increased power of the people to purchase them, and with tho greatly cheapened. transportation resulting from the circulation of vastly greater quahtmes1’ of commodities, the rev- enues obtained, by the federal govern­ ment have enormously increased. The states, on the other hand, find It Im practicable to secure such large amounts of public revenue from the more direct form? or taxation. This Is dearly illustrated hy the fact that the federal government thus secures Jn taxes revenues amounting annually to $800,000,000. This Is $10 per capita, or nearly $50 per family. The states, on the other band, annually bring into their state treasuries only $2 to $3 per capita, or about $ 200 ,Q 00 ,- 000.- It should be observed that .rev­ enues derived by cities,counties, townships,'arid other political bodies make the state and local taxes prg siimably somewhat larger than the federat revenue. The fact that the (state legislator is often chosen' under pledge to keep down gtsto, expenses,, while the federal legislator is expect­ ed to', secure all he can get for' hts state from federal appropriations, has net-a little to do with the relatively larger growth of .the federal budget.

OSCAR YOUNG, 7 East Main Street, Springfield, Ohio A PERMANENT TAX COMMISSION. $ The sentiment In’ favor of a per­ manent tax commission grows strong­ er. The tax committees have found the need for authentic and exhaustive information pa. the various plans of taxation, and'many members have-de­ clared that the legislature should enact very' few tax lawn until a com­ petent commission has had an oppor­ tunity to investigate the results of HbchiJaws- -1 n-othernstatea?-=Mlnueap*' oil* (Minn.)‘ Tribune, ..
