The San Francisco call., 1910-11-06

The following resolutions were
unanimously adopted by the
board of directors of the Mer-
chants Association, at a meeting
held Friday.
Whereas, Revenues necessary
to maintain the state of Califor-
MIA are about $8,000,000 per an
mum; and,
Whereas, The Commission on
Revenue and Taxation, in their
report issued in 1910, have esti-
mated the revenue that would
have been raised this year, if
Senate Constitutional Amend
1nent No. 1 had been in effect, at
the sum of 81 $7,999,645.87; and,
Whereas, In making said esti-
mates the commission has made
several mistakes, notable among
which are
First. That the commission
has not taken into account the
fact,that all corporations affected
by the constitutional amendment,
except banks, may deduct from
the taxes to be paid by them to
the state an amount equal to the
taxes paid by them to pay the
principal and interest of any
bonded Indebtedness created and
now outstanding by any city. city
and county, county, town, town
ship or district; and,
Second. That the commission
figures the assessed valuation of
franchises of all corporations
subject to have their franchises
taxed under the constituti onal
amendment at the sum of $685.
O98, 1873.
Whereas, Such franchises are
now only assessed at the sum of,
approximat tely, $20,O0O,0O0,
which means that if the revenues
anticipated are to be raised these
franchises must be assessed at
four times their present value,
which is an estimate that does
not appear at all likely of attain
ment; and,
Whereas, The public service
corporations alone in the city and
county of San Francisco and Los
Angeles only will be permitted
to deduct from their taxes to the
state the sum of approximately
