The flare-up in the house over the
tax commission bill Monday after.
noon presages stormy weather for
tax legislation at this session of the
legislature.
AS stated, House Bill No. 8. the
Mann act creating a state tax com.
mission with full powers, and which
is identical with the tax commission
bill originally introduced in the SEN
ate by Senator Clark, was made a
special order for Wednesday after
noon, to be considered by the house
as a committee of the whole. Opin-
ions, learned and otherwise, on tax
alton matters will be then let loose.
Present conditions indicate that
there is little likelihood of the crea-
ton of a tax commission with auto
cratic powers. II sucha commission
is established, it probably will be lit
tie more than a board Of equalization.
Many outside influences now are
making themselves felt IN connec-
ton with proposed tax legislation.
1t is stated by some of the Republi-
can leaders that there are already no
less than sixty applicants for posi-
tons as tax commissioners.
That the plan of a central tax COM
mission with autocratic powers has
not been received favorably by the
coal and other powerful interests OF
the state is admitted. These inter.
ests would rather take a chance
with local assessors and county
boards Of equalization.

A movement is gathering strength
over the country, promoted largely
by American citizens, nav
ing for its object the prohibition by
act of congress of further exporta-
ton of war materials by citizens of
the United States to any belligerent
nation. A bill of this tenor is now
before congress.
The argument against enacting
such a law and setting such a dan
gerous precedent, is briefly and
clearly summarized in a letter from
e~x-president Taft to a Harvard pro-
fessor who sought his endorsement
of the proposed act of prohibition
The letter follows:
II have yours of January "a.
cannot write to a neutrality meeting
such a letter as you would wish. |
think that to interdict the supply of
ammunition and arms from this
country to the belligerents in the
war would be to adopt a policy that
would seriously interfere with our
wi welfare, should we ever be
drawn into a war against our will by
the unjust invasion of some power
who was fully prepared, and who
would always find US unprepared.
Such a policy as that you indicate
would mean that the power who is
armed cap-a-pie would always have
at a disadvantage those countries
that were not in such a state of
preparation. | would, therefore,
lead to even greater pressure upon
all the countries of the world than
that we have cen in the last two de.
cades, to increase their ornaments,
a result which we would all deplore,
For this reason, ! cannot think
that il would be wise to pass a Law
changing all the rules Of information.
al laws heretofore prevailing with
respect TO the sale Of ammunition
and arms to belligerents by neutral
countries.
Nor do | think that in the pres
ent exigency it would be an act OF
neutrality to do so, because it would
inure only to the benefit of one OF
the belligerents.
