FARMING COMMITTEE
 |S MADE PERMANENT
Will Continue Spreading Gospel of DiverSificatiOn for Arkan-
 SaS Crops.

Little Rock, Jan. 2.-The Arkansas profitable farming campaign commit tee was made a permanent organiza- tion at a meeting at the Union Trust streets. Little change was made in the personnel and several new names were added to the roll
 That the committee be made per manent was suggested by H. F. Au- ten, chairman, but he declined to ac- cept the position of chairman on ac- count of pressing business. E. J.. Bodman, assistant secretary of the Union Trust Company, was elected chairman to succeed MT. Auten. The publicity committee, of which Fred Heiskell is the chairman, was reap pointed.
 The object of the committee will be to continue the work started by the profitable farming campaign. Numerous requests for further in. formation are being received daily and the necessity of follow-up work is apparent
 The requests will be attended to by the committee and information will be furnished through agricultur- al experts on all subjects desired. A number of requests have come from different localities asking that meet ings be again held and that agricul- tural experts address the farmers of the respective vicinities along the lines of the crops most adapted to that vicinity.
 H. S. Mobley, president of the Arkansas Farmers Union, was chair man of the meeting, and D. c. Welty, agricultural commissioner of the Mis- souri Pacific-Iron Mountain railroad, came from St. Louis to attend. Plans for marketing the crops of the farm CTS were discussed.
 The committee will meet again next Wednesday at the chamber of commerce. Subcommittees will be appointed and reports on follow-up plans will be given. This meeting will also be attended by MT. Welty.
 The new members elected are J. E. Lightle of Searcy, E. T. Tobey, c. J. Griffith, Mayor Charles E. Taylor, E. c. Johnston and c. O. Carpenter

WOULD INCREASE TAX.
Martineau Will Ask Legislature to
 Revise Franchise Act.

Little Rock, Dec 3O.-State Tax Commissioner A. c. Martineau will recommend that the coming legisla- ture thoroughly revise the present law governing the levy of an annual franchise tax against corporations, according to announcement made by him here.
 "We collect annually only about $1S5, 900 from the corporations of Arkansas" said Commissioner Mar tineau, when we ought to collect at least S500,00O annually. We are far behind other states in this regard, as Wisconsin collects $3,000,000 and H. linois $4,000,OO0 or more from this source.
 q shall recommend law radical ly revising the present franchise act, and asking for an increase of the tax from one-fifteenth of one per cent of the capital stock employed in the state to one-tenth of one per cent. This will apply to all except public service corporations. The latter class should pay a tax on their gross re- ceipts or gross earnings.
 ''I shall also ask for graduated scale of tax, dependent upon the class of the corporation. Any corporation that has a monopoly or near mo- nopoly by it's very nature should pay higher tax than corporations of other classes. We ought to raise at least $35O,OO0 more annually by the franchise tax than is now done, and I shall urge the passage of such a measure as will accomplish this end. J
