pany bill providing that a State COM
mission for the settlement and collec-
ton of taxes, recommended by the

Ihe proposition is to make the cor
porauon report years uniform. Now
the capital stock report must be made
out Tor the year ending November |
and there are different periods for re-
ports on corporate loans and gross re-
ceipts. One of the suggestions is that
corporations be required to report for
the calendar year and that they be
given sixty days in which to file their
reports without being considered de-
linquent Now corporations are show
erinS in their reports, special reports
being required by the State for periods
not covered by anything else.

mission has been mooted for several
years. 1t would put the settlement of
the fifteen or sixteen millions of State
taxes from corporations in the hands
of three men instead of the Auditor

would be selected by the Attorney
