CLAIM ID BE RECORD
 REVENUE PRODUCER

Exception is taken by different de- partments of the state to the state ment contained in the seventh annual report of the Arizona corporation com mission that the commission is the largest revenue producing department in the state. According to the report, for the year ending June 30, 1919, the statement is made and attention is called to the fact that S152,7S9 was collected during the year.
 The author of the report evidently overlooked the fact that the state land department is still doing business and through the state land commissioners office collected and turned over to the state treasurer during the time covered by the corporation commissions re- port $771,774.67 or little more than five times the amount collected by the corporation commission" said Ben Clark, deputy land commissioner, yes terday.
