State Must Raise
Revenue 10 Meet
Excise Tax Loss
Despite Excellent Condition
of Finances Now, Travis
Sees Problem Ahead
When Liquor Returns Fail

ALBANY, Dec. 21.-A reduction OF
$7,0l9,965 in the net state debt, an m
crease of $692l ,965 in the sinking fund
and gain of $2,6i2 50S in the receipts
over cXpcnditures-th this, in brief, tells
the story Of Controller Travis's report
to be submitted soon to the Legislature
Despite this excellent condition in the
states finances, the Controller pointed
out day that, owing TO the expected
loss Of nearly $4,000, 900 from excise
revenues and the unsettled conditions
in tho roadlustmclt Of the states fiscal
affairs following the close of the war,
NeN YorN 5 confronted with the prob
lem OF how to increase its revenues.
Governmental costs, like those Of
conducting private and corporate al
fairs, have of late years been steadily
increasing" he explained. "This stu
alton is largely due to the demands
made by the people under the Legisla-
lures for new activities on the part Of
the state.
at would seem, therefore, that the
present revenue laws have reached the
limit where they can be expected to
produce all Of the revenue necessary to
meet she budget requirements. Conse-
quently. new laws must be found, un-
less the direct state tax on general
property is to be materially increased.

A o TRIBUTE

The following tribute to the mem
DRY of the late James l.. Jarvis is Civ
en- TO the Register by the Rev. w. a.
Mast, pastor of the First ~Presbyteri-
an church, of which Mr.. Jarvis was
an officer and worker for many years:
I'm the passing of this man the
zens. He was a public spirited man.
ready always to support every worthy
movement and to help on every good
cause. Comparatively few men have
had the rare faculty he possessed of
winning friends. He o them to
himself because of his fine personal
ity and his cordial greeting.
"He was an officer in the Presby-
terrain church for a great many years
and he was effective. He did full
duty and more. He was always ready
to do whatever there was for him to
do and to do 1t to the best of his abil-
ity. The deepest concern of his life
was the progress Of the Kingdom of
God. This to him was more import
ant than business, more important
than all else beside. Yet he was not
an extremist in any sense Of the
word. He was well balanced in his
mental make up. He thought serious
ly about life but with are good sense
he gave things their rightful place.
First things first seemed to him to
be the end and aim Of life.
He was a teacher in the Sabbath
school and it was here that his gen.
uine worth was revealed. His class
was large and through the years con-
tinued to grow in size and interest.
He had no theory about the gospel
of Jesus Christ he only knew the fact
of Jesus Christ. He was clear in his
conviction but in no way tried to force
his opinions on others. He believed
that the reasonableness of the gospel
must ultimately appeal to men and
women. Christianity to him was not
a creed nor a ritual but a life. Not
what men profess to believe but what
they believe that makes an impress
sion on life-this to him was Chris
tianity. Not what do you think but
how does what you think effect your
life
Mr.. Jarvis was a rare and eXcep-
'tional man in his home. He was at
