ESTABLISH ANNUAL STATE
 TAX ON TOWNS
Is Instrumentation of Special Com
 mission on State Taxation.

The special state commission on tax ation appointed in 1915 and made up of Simeon E. Baldwin. Frank H. Stadtmueller and Guy P. Miller made it report in pamphlet form to the gen. eraI assembly Tuesday. Its general conclusions are that it is safe to say principle well adapted to the nature of our people, and their occupations in life. They need some amendments" says the commission, ito make them work more smoothly and more eff1- ciently.''
 The commission recommends for enactment among other bills which it has prepared the following: Increas- ing the powers of the state board of equaliza ton; requiring town asses sors to revalue all real estate every five years; relinQuiShing to the town the interest of the state in fees for liquor licenses: establishing an annual state tax on towns; eXempting public securities from taxation; exempting testamentary gifts to charitable cor pOrationS from succession taxes; in creasing the exemptions from taxa tions on certain articles of household or personal use; allowing taxation of securities registered with the state treasurer, based on their real, if less than their face value; limiting the time for presenting claims for back taxes against estates of deceased per sons; for notice to town assessors of the registration of motor vehicles; imposing a uniform franchise tax on all insurance companies of the state, and concerning taxation of bank de- posits:
 From the general conclusions Mir. Miller dissents saying: T am of the opinion that law incapable of any thing like fair administration should either be amended so that they may be fairly administered or should be abolished altogether. I believe in the substitution of an income tax for the present property tax on intangible personal praperty and such items of tangible personal property as cannot be reached by the present property tax"
 The commission believes that the tax laws of 1915 both in number and imuortance made more changes than ever before at any single session. It recommends that the exemption of wearing apparel be extended to in- clude watches and jewelry kept solely for the personal use of the owner or his family. It recommends that the exemption on furniture used in keep ing house be increased to $750.
