community to which they go by help
ing In the SUNDAY school work and in
the enlargement and enrichment Of
the life OF the community in all its

a transport home that was loaded

he went with the marines to their
camp at Quantico.
There he found himself full

Quantico had authority to transfer
him and it looked like Friedman was

Finally. however. he was allowed
liberty to go to Washington and pre-
sent his case to army officers. Last

HARMONIOUS AND
SUCCESSFUL ONE
Agree to Appointment
Of Commission to
Study Taxes
TO REPORT AT
NEXT SESSION

Governor Larrazolo calls attention
to an unintentional mistake In the
New Mexican Of yesterday in re.as
ing the proceedings had at the meet
ing of the representatives OF the min
ing interests Of the state with the
governor and members Of the legs.
~lature present, upon the question oil
the tax laws of the state as appllca'
BILE to such mining interests. The
reporter for the New Mexican who
is responsible for the article, unfors-
unately made a mistake" said the
governor, which, however, / feel
confident was, as stated, simply a
mistake by mi~sinformation and was
not in any sense, in my opinion, in
te~ntionally done. For Instance, the
article in question says this: In
stead of getting together on revis-
ion Of the mine taxation problem the
meeting broke up in a tense dist
greement.' That is an error; on the
contrary, the meeting ended in q
most harmonious way, all parties
present feeling that everybody con-
cerned was actuated by the best mo-
tives and every one was well dis
posed to do his duty in the matter
of taxation. There were some dill
ferences OF opinion expressed, as is
natural in any question under investi-
cation and discussion, but all those
differences were expressed in the
best of feeling and all the discussic 4
was characterized by sincerity and
candor and by a desire apparent all
through the discussion to arrive at
a. wise and just solution Of the quss-I
ton under investigation. 1t was
agreed by all parties present that
such an intricate and complex qu'sa-
tion as that of taxing the mining in
terests could not possibly be adj
visedly solved in a few moments Of
consideration, but that on the other
hand that was a problem that requir-
ed the careful consideration of z
body of men whose time should be
exclusively devated to the study of
said problem for a long period Il
time, and to that END 1t was agreed
by all parties concerned that 1t was
desirable that the present Legislature
should provide by law for the az.
pointment Of a commission to study
this question thoroughly and to re-
port its conclusions to the Legislature
at its next session, recommending
such legislation on the subject as il
their opinion would do justice to all
parties concerned. This was the res
suit of the conference, and I repeat,
everything went on very harmonious
ly and good feeling wa expressed
and was manifest on all sides.

last, appointed to a second term by
President Wilson. His name went into
the senate with a long list Of nomina-
tions for various vacancies which had
occurred during the absence Of the

Charles M. Sanford TO succeed him
self at Hagerman, Louis l.. Burkhead
to succeed himself at Columbus,
George Hoffman to succeed himself at
Belen, and George U. McCrary for a
second term at Artesia.
The general tfe-up of business in
the senate which resulted in the fail
ure Of a large mass of major legisla
ton also prevented any action on the
list of appointees nominated by the
president all of which died at noon
March 4, and wiIl have to be re-made

man, however, though unconfirmed for
