TAXATION CHANGES
Governor Harris favors Recommend
atiOns to Be Made by The { hio
Tax Commission.

The report OF the Tax Commission
Of Ohio which Is to be submitted to
the legislature by Governor Harris is
about completed. A few days ago
Governor Harris and members Of the
taxation committees Of the two houses
Of the legislature met with the Tax
Commission and considered the whole
subject Of taxation.
Immediately following this Joint
meeting 1t was announced that there
was a surprising unanimity of opinion
among all the conferees as to recon-
mendations for legislative action.
There is no doubt but that Cover
nor Harris now wants a constitutional
amendment permitting classification
of property for taxation. II is said
the governor told the. Tax Commits
sion that when he appointed FIVE law.
yers to serve on that body, he did II
with the idea that they would be able
to find some way to reform the tax
laws without constitutional amend
ment, but that he was satisfied now
the only remedy was a constitutional
amendment
II canes from the executive offices
that Governor Harris is in favor Of
constitutional amendment and that he
will recommend such action to the
legislature.
The Tax Commission in its report
will recommend constitutional
amendment; an appraisal Of real es-
tate oftener than once in ten years
the abolishment Of the 20 different
state boards that appraise and equal
lie taxation returns. and the appoint.
ment of one taxing commission there
fer; the passage of graduated in
heritance tax; the extension OF TIE
Nichols law to all corporations, unless
under the proposed amendment some
better plan may be found, and separa-
ton OF state and local taxes.
Governor Harris is in he arty sym.
rathy with the whole program and
with the support promised him in the
legislature there is no doubt but that
his plans will go through.
