does not contemplate the Imposition of an additional tax bnt a substitute /or a helplessly bad irstem, that It Is not adranced as a means of raising additioixal rerenue for state purposes but rather to equalize local burdens. Again it is abranced because of all the man yreforms and new methods of taxation adopted in other states of the Union and In foreign countries, it seems to promise the closest ap¬ proximation to the ideals of eauity and equality. 'It doeH this by taxing each man In accordance witb his ability to contribute to tbe support of the government which protects him, hia property and the soolal structure of which he Is a part."
THE PROBLEM OF TAXATION.
The report of the joint legislative committee, appointed to Investigate the subject of taxation, Just trans¬ mitted to the Legislature is a valu¬ able public document. It is In twelve parts with thirty-one chapters, nu¬ merous appendices and an income tax bill which the committee offers as the best solution of the problem of more evenly distributing the burden of tax¬ ation.
This committee was appointed hy the Legislature of 191.5 to investigate generally the subject of taxation with particular regard to the best methods of equitably and effectually reaching all property which should be sub¬ jected to taxation on the same prop¬ erty; and to prepare the needed legis¬ lation to carry such methods Into ef¬ fect. Senator Ogden L. Mills is chair¬ man.
Air numerous hearings in New York. City and in other cities ot the State, leading authorities on taxation ap¬ peared before the committee as wit¬ nesses, and the taxation methods of other States and of other countries were studied carefully.
In the introduction to the report It Is stated that the committee does not understand that It was appointed with a view to developing new sources of revenue but rather to in¬ vestigate the relative burden borne today by different classes of property with a view to doing away with such inequalities aa exist, particularly in relation to the personal property tax. The report points ot that the pres- The report points out that the pres- erty, both of individuals and corpora¬ tions, Is a failure, that the great hulk of personal property escapes taxation with the result that real estate is bearing an unjust propor¬ tion of the whole burden of taxation. The percentage of personal property to the total asaessment has been de¬ creasing steadily since 1866, when it constituted 25..') per cent, of the total of asseseable property, until now when it Is only 3.77 per cent, in 1911, In two cities in the state the pro¬ portion which personal property as¬ sessment bore to the total assessment was less than one per cent., in flve cities, between one and three per cent.; and in only one city was it more than 21 per cent. At the pres¬ ent time the tax rate throughout the entire state is too high to permit the sccesusful taxation of personal prop¬ erty at the general property rate and there is no llkehood of the reduction of this rate to a point at which taxa¬ tion will be possible.
The plan of Prof. Sellgman, chair¬ man of the executive committee of the New York apecial committee on taxation, for an ability, or presumpt¬ ive Income, tax Is discussed at length in the report but Is not recommended as it is primarily an urban tax and not an accurate measure of taxpaying ablUty in the rural districts.
The Wisconsin income tax more nearly meets the views of the com¬ mittee both as an equitable measure and a revenue producer. The report of the Wisconsin Tax Commission for 1914 shows that merchants and Job¬ bers paid 20.01 per cent, of the total Income tax, manufacturers 16.01 per cent., bankers and capitalists 8 per cent, brokers, real estate men, etc., 7.8 per cent, mechanics and trades¬ men 5.10 per cent, farmers 3.87 per cent., and so on down to laborers who paid .18 of one per cent.
The oonolusions of the committee are that th© end sought for will be accomplished best by: (1) the aboli¬ tion of the present tax on personal property; (2) the withdrawal of gen- I'eral business corporations from the 'provisions of section lk2 ot the tax law; and (3) the imposition of an In- ^,,eome tax on individuals and corpora¬ tions, including manufacturing cor- ' lioratlons. On this point the report L.fays: f "Wa emphasise tbat aucb a bill
POLITICAL COMMENT.
Assesublyman Knight believes that the standard of work in the Legisla¬ ture will be improved if the members are paid their actual and necessary expenses whiie attending legislative sessions, said expenses to be limited to $500 a session and to be paid by the Comptroller on itemized vouchers. He flnds that in hie own case half of his salary of |1,500 is spent in travel¬ ing and living expensee while in Al¬ bany for an ordinary twenty-weeks session. Membera coming from more remote parts of the state spend even more while niembers from Albany and nearby points spend little or nothing' and would not be entitled to much in the way of expense.s. His plan would give to each legislator 11,500 for hie work at Albany which many of them do not receive hy reason of the fact that they have to spend a large part of it for travel, hoard and lodging.

Congress
President
In 1888
in I88«j a Oemocratic passed and a Democratic signed the Mills tariff bill, the voters of the country retired the Democratic administration, and the Republican administration that auc¬ ceeded it enacted the McKinley tariff law. In 1893 a Democratic Congress passed and a Democratic President aigned the Wllaon tariff bill and, at the next presidential election, was as¬ sisted out of offlce by a tremendous majority. The leason taught the country by the enactment of the Wll¬ aon tariff law led the people to keep the party responsible for that law out of power for sixteen years. In 1913 a Democratic Congress passed and a Democratic President aigned the Un- derwood-Slmmona free trade tariff bill. The voters will have an oppor¬ tunity to pass Judgment on that law next November. ,^
HEMPSTEAD LOSES
Second Straight Defeat at Hands of Brooklyn Separates.
Last Saturday night the Hemp¬ .stead team suffered its aecond etraight defeat at the hands of the fast Brook¬ lyn Separates, score 42-'23. This de¬ feat was partly due to the poor play¬ ing on the part of the Henipstead team. They were outplayed in all stages of the game, and the visitors lead was never in danger of being ov¬ ercome. The good team work of the visitore waa largely responaible for their victory. This team defeated Hempstead earlier In the season.
Next Saturday night the visiting team will be the Lawrence-Cedai- hurst Fire Department. This leam, like Hempstead, is composed ot local men, and has defeated some of the same team, whirh Hempatead has beaten. According to the Brooklyn Eagle of Feb. 14, the Lawrence-Ced- arhurst team will challenge Rock¬ ville Centre for the championship ot Naasau county If they defeat Hemp¬ stead this Saturday night, so this fame, li'ithout a doubt, should be one which will be nip and tuck through- otit and greatly contested. The vis¬ itors will bring their rooters with them.

I The State Agricultural School at j Farmingdale will set an example In ! opening, hy beginning its work at the I time when all agricultural work nat¬ urally doea begin—March 1. Instead of starting their work at a time when i farm work is being brought to a con- ' elusion the classes at Farmingdale will begin when they have the con- istant Inspiration of an increasing instead of a declining year.

While the Legislature is investigat¬ ing the Rockefeller Institute eduea¬ tional methods, it ought at the same time look into tbe Carnegie Historical Trust. Both of these trusts have laid their paralyzing arms on the educa¬ tional Institutions, the tormer operat¬ ing from New York, and the other from Washingrton.

Members of Mott Post Attend Lincoln Day Exercises.
Half a dozen of the members of the Mott Poat, G. A. R., visited the Co¬ lumbus avenue school last Friday af¬ ternoon. The principal, Miss Titsu, had Invited the veterans to attend the exercises of Lincoln Day, which tho children are always anxious to cele¬ brate, and to take such part as they pleased.
The children did exceedingly well In singing the national airs, and gave "Tenting on the Old Camp Ground" with flne feeling, as well as patriotic recitations. One little colored girl, of about eight years of age, read her own composition on the "Life of Lincoln," which called forth the hearty com¬ mendation of both veterans and teachers. It showed careful historic reading and accuracy lu detail, as well as touches of literarj etyle and feeling unusual In one of her age and experience.
The flne corps of teachera were very kind and cordial In the reception of the visitors, doing all In their power to make the visit a pleasant one in which they fully succeeded. The vet¬ erans were shown over the ftne. new building where everything seemed In perfect order and harmony. Other sehools wlll be visited at later dates.
