OTHER FEATURES
 OF MEASURE YET
 TO BE AGREED ON
Franchise Assessment Pro- vision One of Most Inn portant Feature, sof Bill. Replaces Amendments
RxHuGH w. ROBERTS

Montgomery, September 4.-(Spe. ciaI.)-That the conference committee appointed to adjust differences be. tween the house and senate relative to the revenue and license bill, has agreed to fix the franchise assessment against foreign corporations on a flat basis of about 55 cents per 5000, was learned here tonight. As is known, the bill as passed by the senate fixed this assessment at 75 cents per s1ooo.
 With the exception of the provisions oi the two bills relating to exemptions and the board of equalization. no feature of the measures has created as much in. terest generally as the franchise tax of foreign corporations.
 The general license bill, as proposed by the recess committee on finance and tax ation, and as passed by the house fixed this tax on a graduated scale, ranging from $l down to 10 cents according tc the amount of capital employed.
 The senate committee on finance and taxation amended the section so as to make the assessment $1 for every $100C of capital stock. Immediately a storm of protest went up from the larger cor porations many of which would have had to pay, on that basis. from two to f1ve times as much as under the provisions of a graduated scale of assessments.
