RESENT STATEMENT
MEMBERS OF STATE TAN COM
MISSION CLAIM PROPOSED
AMENDMENT Is MIS-
UNDERSTOOD.

Pierre, July Members of the
state tax commission are far from
satisfied with a recent statement
sent out for publication in regard to
the proposed tax amendment to the
constitution which is to be submitted
to the voters of the state at the No
vember election. The statement is:
Those who have studied the pro-
posed amendment and who are like
ly to oppose it during the fall cam
paign claim that the adoption of the
amendment would virtually let down
the bars so there would be no limit
or prohibition upon the levy of taxes
in South Dakota, which il is alleged
would be subject to the whim and
caprice of the legislature" This.
members of the commission claim, is
an attempt to get the belief into the
minds of the people that the amend
ment attempts to take away a con-
stittuional limit on tax levies, and
leave the matter to the legislature
without limit. They say the real fact
is that the only place where there is
a tax levy limitation upon the legis-
lature, so far as it affects general
taxation. is upon the levies for state
purposes. the present limitation be
ing 4 mills, which the amendment re-
duces TO ? mills Any limitations as
TO county and local levies have been
a legislative limitation alone since
statehood. and remain so under the
proposed amendment. But the
amendment does take away the con
stitutional limitation now granted to
express company assessments, which
was introduced into the constitution
at the time il was framed under the
guise of equal taxation of all prop
erty." and under which the express
companies claim that the only tax
which can be assessed against them
is on their office fixtures and de
livery outfits, and none other. and
the amendment seeks to place them
and other corporations of like char
acter where an adequate tax can be
collected from them as we'll as from
the general property of individuals.
