urse state Aid for Good Roads.

There were built in the state In 1919
ten miles of roads OF the first class.
concrete; 165 miles of road of the sec
third class road, gravel macadam; ID
miles of roads of the fourth class,
shale surfaced, and 225 miles of road
OF the fifth class, graded but not
surfaced, making a total construction
under the new law for it's first year of
operation of 472 miles of road, accord
ing to the first biennial report of the
Wisconsin highway commissioner.
The report calls attention to the IN
favorable character of the summer OF
1912 for road work, because of the
excessive amount of rain, while the
work was still further delayed by the
insufficiency of the labor available.
The latter may be remedied by effect
i've organization of road building
forces by each county and arrange
ments to have the men sleep and eat
in tents on the work
One of the significant features Of
the report is that the first objection
noted to the new law is the scattering
of effort by some counties on so many
roads that residents complain an or
binary lifetime will not witness the
completion of any one road The com
mission suggests, as a remedy, concen-
tration of effort upon the main lines
Of travel, placing a minimum of $500
for any one piece Of work. and that
share of the expense of improving the
principal roads be borne by automo
bile owners who demand such roads
and who benefit greatly by them. The
commission recommends that automo-
bile license fees should be expended
in the maintenance and construction
IF these routes, the license fees to be
based either on horsepower or weight,
rather than the fiat rate imposed by
the present law.
The commission deals with the sub
ject of maintenance in detail and
points out that travel on a city street
is so spread over the entire surface
Of the street as to really cause lesG
wear and tear than the traffic on
country road, where each team trav-
els in the same track. The concrete
road, as built in Milwaukee county, is
pointed to as the solution of the heav~
iyl travelled road problem of the
state
During 1913 the commission intends
to experiment with oil and cement
mixtures for surfacing sand roads in
the state, a problem of the greatest
importance in a number of the coun-
ties.
The deficiency between the amount
asked for in the aid for 1913, proba-
bly, 1920, 900, and the amount available
for distribution under the terms of
the law $37S,0O0, is $422,000 If the
applications of all the towns are to be
met in full This means that towns
which voted $1,000 for a certain i'm
provement will find instead of the
$4,000 as expected with the county's
share and the states share, only
S21S4 available.

Changes Proposed in Income Tax Law.

Changes Proposed In Income Tax Law
The state tax commission in its BIZ
ennia1 report to the legi -lature will
recommend some minor changes in
the income tax law The most impor-
tant of these proposed changes have
to do with corporations.
The legislature will be asked to
graduate the corporate income rate on
basis double the rate upon individu-
al incomes, until maximum of six
per cent. is reached.
Another change to be recommended
is that corporations be not held re-
sponsible for the bondholders' tax
The provisions of the law as it now
stands holds the corporations liable
for the tax upon the income from the
bonds of the corporation. The trainers
of the law in Incorporating that pro-
vision contemplated the danger OF
many corporations being bonded heav-
lily for the express purpose of eyading
the income tax demand. That danger
seems now so remote that the COM
mission does not think 1t necessary or
lust to continue the protection.
Another change proposed is to have
the family considered as unit in esti-
mating its income. A man. the head
of family, may have no income, but
his wife may have an ample one. The
change would make the wife's income
the husbands for purposes of taxa
ton
It is indicative of the high regard in
which the present income tax law is
held tnat the governor Of Massachu-
setts recently recommended to the
legislature of his state the enactment
of an income tax law framed upon the
lines of the Wisconsin measure.
1t is not anticipated either by the
tax commission or by others specially
interested in the income tax law that
there will in the future be any serf
Gus organized effort to secure the re-
peal of the law somewhat cursory
examination of the objections made to
the law seems to indicate that the OPP
position to the measure lay against
the more or less inquisitoria1 methods
OF it's administration or enforcement
rather than against the principle un,

In Macedonia have found the refugees
from the fringe of the late Greek con-
quests in pitiabe state of misery. The
worst state of things is found just south
of this city which is crowded with refu-
gees. who are still pouring in from the
new Greek territory in Macedonia.
Efforts are being made to repatriate
them, but without much success, as they
still are in a state of panic. In Samokov
and Nubrutza the refugees are finding
shelter in schoolhouses, stables and other
outhouses. All of them are destitute,
without clothes. and many are in a
wretched condition of health. The peo-
pie of these places naturally are anx-
ious to see their unsought guests repa-
triated. as the best the Bulgarian govern
ment can do for them is to provide bread.
However an agent sent to their former
villages reports deplorable condition of
affairs there. Practically all of the vii
lagos have been burned and the rehousng
of the refugees before winter sets in is
impossible.
The Greeks in the vicinity of Drama,
burned, are doing admirable work in
feeding the people, many of whom are
lodged in converts. Fifteen thousand
refugees are said to be in the vicinity of
Drama. When the cold weather sets in
shortly there is certain to be terrible
suffering.
