Tho State of California i? nov/ ■wrestling With the taxation question, X-commission authorized ,to stud/ taxation laws and schemes lias only recently ■completed a Comprehensive report. Page after page could he taken from that report and with the change of the word "CalUorala" to "Ohio” he made timely crltism ol our. own system. Many of the rec­ ommendations for'changes in the Cali- focilja constitution and laws could h 0 . arplled. with eaual force to Ohio, These excerpts from the report of the CaliforniaCommission on Revenue *r,d Taxation are particularly applic­ able to the Ohio situation; “In . general the present Bystem of taxation does not meet the demands made upon it. It is antiquated, * . Ing been adopted 50 years ago, and has not been revised, to keep pace with modem conditions. ‘Tfc is full of Inequalities which im­ pose a handicap upon the growth of the state, a handicap which only* the vigor and inexhaustible energy of our people can carry. - “These inequalities' twist and dis­ tort oiir industries and prohibit a symetrlCal development at our to * souffceS, JThfey place an undue bur­ den upon agriculture especially! the foundation of out wealth, the one in­ dustry which most fully exploits the great natural resources of the state. “Our chief tax, called a general property tax, has in fact become X real estate tax. Only from 15 per ce’nfc to 16 per cent!of the entire .taxes arc ieviow on personal .property, ■ “Monies and credits escape taxation almost entirely. Our laws In regard to the taxation of this class of prop­ erty are full of ahsurilitips and utter­ ly Unenforelble, It Is unwise to re­ tain these provisions on the statute hooks, “The present system takes the rev­ enue derivable by taxation from largo general organisations, like the rail­ roads, which revenue belongs by right to the people of the state at large, and distributes it most inequitably among the local divisions of the state which have no proper claim to it whatsoever. * “Our present system is a 'school for perjury,’ puts a penalty m honesty and pays high premium# for dis­ honesty, , “Our present system Is so embodied in our constitution that it. cannot ho bettered without a constitutional amendment,” NELSOM W. EVANS of Portsmouth, ■ion, t liaVo possessed any aottl In fear and trampling, for tho reason that I have jseett that there has been an Intimation that It will report some kind of a tax Jaw. Now, I wish to say In tho presOnco of this distinguished body that I think, if the commission Undertakes to malm any tax code, or any tax system, under our present constitution, It will make a great mistake. But I want to nay to tho taemhOrs of the commission that if, when they come tor the end of their de­ liberations, they coins .<0 tho conclusion that tb© only remedy I# to have a con­ stitutional .amendment that Will repeat Section 2 of Article XII, they will cover themselves with glory and distinguished honor, and they Will deserve the thanks of every cltfcen of this state. Now, that is my idea about it. I do not think, gentlemen, that Wo ought to live by the last will and testa­ ment of the men of 1851 any longer. 1 really believe that under that constitu­ tion we have the right to havo a separate ruleVs to money, a separate rule as 'to credits, a separate rule ns to ntOcks and a separate rule as to bonds, I bellove that that would TA a jemt and fair con­ struction of tho constitution. I hellovi it is tho construction Which ought to havo been made In tho, first instance, and Was not made; hut at tho Same timo, 1 would be sorry to see our Tax C mbjjj IS- slon recommend it. because it would be like tho man in tho Scriptures who built hid Otrtietuto on a sandy 'foundation .and when the rains and the ‘floods Mme it crumbled down, Tho only remedy, gen­ tlemen, is to amend tho constitution.
