SEGREGATION PLAN
NAJOR|TY'S CHOICE
Permanent Commission
Idea Seems to Meet With
Little Support
HEAR DELEGATIONS.
II Commission is to be Had Judge
Williams Wants Decentralized
Body of Men Selected.
HEAR DELEGATIONS.

Richmond, Jan, 6-The Finance
Committee of the House of Delegates
met this morning at 10 o'clock, one
week in advance of the convening OF
the extra session of the General AS
semhly, for the purpose of consider
ing the question of the revision OF
the tax laws of Virginia.
The committee had before it the
report of the special State Tax Com
mission embodying two plans OF
taxation, the bill prepared by Sena-
tor John Lesner, Norfolk; bill.
prepared by Judge Martin Williams,
of Giles County, and number of
other ideas in more or less concrete
form.
The basis of the real fight in the
Legislature which conveneS next
Wednesday will be on the two plans
proposed by the Special Tax Com
mission. The majority report of this
commission proposes practically the
re-adoption of the present tax laws
together with salaried, centralized
commission, to attempt the enforce
ment of those laws. The minority re-
bort proposes a radical departure
from the present system, advocating
a plan of partial segregation.
- Some of the members. of the House
Finance, Committed reached Rich
mond last night and others this
morning. From what was gathered
it appears that the majority report
of the Special Tax Commission, ad-
yocatins permanent State Tax
Commission. has little chance OF ad-
option. The segregation plan seems
TO DO favored by the majority of the
members of the House Of Delegates
and by an influential minority If not
nv = majority of the senator's. Just
now il seems safe prediction that
tho General Assembly will either
adopt the modified segregation plan
or will do nothing.
That a salariea, centralized COM
mission sitting in Richmond to super
wise, and practically make the tax
Jaws of Virginia, will prove accept
able to the majority of the members
Of the Legislature, is believed now
bv practically no one conversant with
the situation.
A delegation from the Alexandra
chamber of Commerce which: favors
the segregation plan, appeared be-
fore the Finance committee.
