CARRIED ON IN
MOSCOW, CLAIM
Reds, It Is Believed,
Planned to Use Worthless
Money to Finance Radical
Movements in the u. S.

Antwerp, Nov 25-Attempts Of
bolsheviki agents to get through to
America with counterfeit money,
made In Moscow. which 1t is be-
lieved they planned to use in fl
nancing radical Red movements in
the United States, have been dis
covered and. perhaps, thwarted by
American government agents in
central Europe.
In connection with what officials
believe to be very carefully or
ganized scheme to encourage
strikes, unrest and promote boil
shevism in the United states di-
rected from Moscow evidence has
been secured OF n plan to send to
the United States bogus paper cur
rency of several European nations,
to be changed there into valid
bank notes or securities.
-Four men. coming direct from
Moscow, who sought to go to Amer
lea. were known to have had in
their possession counterfeit French
banknotes representing more than
100000.
The Moscow scheme. according
to these officials, is quite simple;
the changing in one country of the
false counterfeit money of another,
OH the theory that bankers are not
particularly familiar with the APP
pearance of foreign currency.
A considerable amount Of this
bogus money is believed to have
been passed successfully in Amer
lea, as recently 4 number of Polish
bolshevik agitators, returning to
Poland from America for the pur-
pose, it is believed, OF promoting
bolshevism behind the lines of the
Polish army which was fighting
the Reds, have Lad in their pos
session thousands of dollars in
american currency, thought to have
been secured in exchange for
bogus foreign bank notes in Amer
lea.
This Moscow counterfeiting
sc heme is an exceedingly ingenious,
double acting ONE said one police
official who has been following it.
THE Kremlin theory is that this
queer stuff when changed. pro-
vides good money for holshevik
uses, and. at the same time. by
flooding the world with bad money,
sends prices up, creates unrest and
makes things ripper for the big rev.
olution Lenine is looking for"

Concerning future construction, the
commissioners say:
ut is quite out of the range or
possibilities that there will be any
material increase in railway con
stuction within the state for many
years, Some short lines may Do
built but since the value has drop
ped out of the best railway securt-
ties, funds for construction Will
certainly not be easily available.
There is nothing TO indicate that
there will be any material increase
in assessed values in this state
from railways for many years.
About the only possible source
of brand new revenue for govern
ment, not touched upon, is, we
i think, new oil discoveries. so far,
there have been no pay oil discov-
cries and until there is, that can
not be counted upon as a new
source of re- snue.
This resume of the situation as
/ to existing conditions will, we be-
lyieVe, demonstrate that any budget
program based upon material
and regular increase in the value
| of taN-paying property in the state
Is quite unwarranted and UNI
sound"
! The Introduction also takes up
the conflict Of laws in New Mexico
and shows that actual values are
supposed TO be assessed in tangible
property, while the law only spec
flies one-third of actual value OF
intangibles as n basis for assess
ment. The general practice seems
to be to tax the entire bulk OF
property at the same rate, but a
new taxation code is sorely needed
and this the commission promises
to suggest to the legislature.

five-year period ending with 1918 =
According 10 Il table in the re-
port the total expenses for state,
state institutions, counties and mu-
inequalities has increased from
to $l0,550,697.72 In
the five-year period, or 81 per cent.
II is pointed out that by tar the
greater portion of such revenue
comes from direct taxation, the
amount raised by direct taxes haS-
ing more than doubled in the five
year period.
Showing the increase in the
weight of taxation, the report says
The state levy in 1915 was $3.50
per 81 .00O of assessed valuation
and in 1919 1915" The latter
figure includes the so-called ROAD
tax of three mills to meet tederal
aid, but the increase is ia per
cent. Tables by counties are pre-
scented which show an increase
during the past five years OF from
l42 per cent in Mckinleyero 40 pei
cent in Sandoval and Sierra coun-
ties.
County and State Rate Doubled
Commenting, the report says; III
the constantly increasing near APP
proach to full valuation be taken
account OF, it may be said that the
state and county tax rate has more
than doubled in the five-year
period. To the state and county
tax rate must be added the levles
for cities. towns and villages and
tho special school district levies In
some of the cities. towns and VII
lagos, the tax rates for all purposes
approach and even exceed n total
OF per cent on approximately iuli
valuation"
Considering the causes of the m
creased costs of government. the
commission hol~s that much OF the
Increase is justified because OF the
need for better roads, better
schools, better health conditions
and improved government service
l. continues:
Granting this, there are items
OF expenditures that are not JUST
fled. While schools and roads are
mainly responsible for the great
advance in the cost of government
careful analysis of the situation
does not justify the conclusion that
the greatly augmented burden Is
due to these factors alone. nor can
the suggestion that the Increased
cost of state government is prop
erly chargeable in any large meas,
urc to the change from a territorial
to state form of government DE
maintained"
After pointing out that further
| Increases in certain departments
may be expected. the report states
that "even when the utmost care
is exercised in public expenditures
there will still be need of addiuona
revenue to the end that certain
classes of property shall not be toe
heavily burdened. 1t Is for THESE
reasons that we recommend bet
ter and moro efficient administra-
ton, an income tax to bring intan,
gible wealth under the burden 81
