The following legislative procedure
as to finances is suggested:
: Especial effort should be made to
secure a strong and well-balanced
committee on finance In both senate
and assembly. These committees
should effect a Joint organization for a
study Of the financial situation and
should provide for a b-committee OF
about three. or possibly five, to pre-
pare budget. This committee should
carefully investigate all budgets sub
mitted by the various officers, COM
missions, board and institutions, and
where such estimates are excessive,
make reasonable reductions. This
work should begin early.
ia bill providing for an honorary
tax commission should be passed with
the following provisions:
1.-The commission should serve
without compensation.
2-The commission should be
authorized to employ expert ac-
countants to install a modern and
efficient system Of accounting In
the various state offices and insti-
tutions. .-
3-The commission should be
authorized to make an investigation
Of our whole financial system, to
require reports from various state,
county and city officers and to en-
ploy expert assistance where needed.
4-The commission should be
authorized to publish a report not
later than August 1, 1914. This re-
port should include findings Of fact
and recommendations for legisla-
ton.
5-The commission should have

There are many matters which
should be investigated carefully by
commission such a. u proposed. be-
fore legislative action Ia taken. Tho
brief period Of legislative session u
all to short for any serious investiga-
ton. oven II the members charged with
this responsibility were freed from all
other duties. The lack OF continuity OF
the membership Of the legislature dis
courages serious effort Of q persistent
character. By the time a man be-
gins to understand the subject. he II
displaced by another beginner.
The financial legislation Of the state
during it's entire history has been
characterized by much that n futile
and at Cross purposes with itself. Sim
gle features, commendable In them
selves, have been engrafted upon the
system in such q way as to make a
misfit. Other features have been in
effective for various reasons. Frequent
ly 1t has required three acts in success
sion to accomplish what was the mani
fest purpose Of the first act.
Statistical TabIes-ExpIanatory Notes
These tables should be made out for
biennial periods, but on account OF lack
Of time, have presented, In the case
Of expenditures, only the odd numbered
years. Excepting for the expenses of
the legislature, the cost Of new build
ings and improvements and repairs.
there is ordinarily no great difference
between the expenses Of any odd and
OF the succeeding even numbered year.
In the case Of new buildings, the main
cost is apt to come in either year.
These figures do not always agree
with the figures under similar titles
in the report of the controller, show
ing receipts and expenses by years.
(See report OF 1911, pages 34-39). For
instance, under the title "Miscella-
neous Receipts" the controller includes
corporation fees, interest on land con-
tracts, liquor licenses and payments on
bonds. have omitted the last entire
ly, as I wish to show the income
rather than receipts, and have dis
played the other items separately. I
have also reclassified expenditures to
certain extent. In the reclassifica-
ton Of expenditures have been in
fluenced in considerable measure by the
classifications proposed by Professor
Carl G. Plehn in his volume on Public
and took other items out Of the ''mis-
cellaneous" column and put them in
the appropriate column, according tc
their purpose. A great deal can be
covered under title such as "miscel.

corresponding expansion took place In
county, city and school expenditures.
Salaries were raised, additional offices
were created, improvements were en-
tered upon, all Of which have had the
effect Of raising. as q rule, the rate
Of local taxation.
How Shall We Proeoed2
In view Of the shortness Of the legis-
lative session and the great number Of
things demanding the attention Of the
legislators, 1t is obvious that a care
full inquiry into this subject made in
advance would be of material assist
ance. .r.
The question. then. was as to how
to present to the governor and the
legislature some organized form Of
public action upon the subject. With
reference to this I not only consulted
Acting President Levers and Prof.
Adams, but prominent men and Of
ficials Of all parties, including among
the latter Governor Oddie, Lieutenant
Governor Ross and the members of
the railroad commission. AS q result of
these conferences, q conclusion was
reached, which was approved by Gov
ernor Oddie and Lieutenant Governor
Ross. that the best method Of pro-
ceeding would be to ask the Reno
Commercial club to initiate an organ
ization composed of representatives of
the various commercial clubs and
boards Of trade in Nevada. as well as
other representative bodies, such as the
Board Of County Commissioners, the
Cattle and Sheep Growers associations,
the Mining association and the Bar
association. which. with the aid of
experts, would ascertain the facts re-
garding retrenchment, the facts regard
Ing loss of revenue, the facts regard
ing the proper equalization of assess
ments and suggest legislative action
thereon.
The question was considered as to
whether the governor, and lieutenant
governor and certain members of the
legislature, representing the various
parties, should be invited to act as q
part of this organized committee, but
IL was thought best not to do this
so that the governor, the lieutenant
governor and the legislature could
exercise their functions Of approving
rejecting or modifying any suggestion
that might be made, without being
committed beforehand to its approval
or acceptance. However. this may be
a matter OF consideration hereafter
when the organization Is effected, II
might be well to give such a commit
tee, not only the power to avail itself
OF expert advice, but to organize such
subcommittee or subcommittee az Il
may deem advisable and to add tc
their number such Of the public Of.
ficials In either the executive or legis.
latiVe departments as they may deem
| advisable.
Pursuant, therefore, to the sentiment
ABOVE expressed. I have the honor t.
lay before the Commercial Club of Reno
this recommendation, with accompany.
ing papers. for such action as it may
deem advisable.
Very respectfully yours,
FRANCIS g. NEWLANDS.
