that efforts in this direction would prove of no avail The federal court of appeals at San Francisco held the Arizona statutes did not provide for any such method"
 Mir. Zander said that notwithstanding this opinion the tax commission lis just as competent as ever and has ample authority to levy such a tax; neverthe- less, in recognition of the fact that the federal courts will be called upon to pass judgment upon the matter, there fore the commission has turned it's attention to the framing of a statute that would specifically direct the com mission to levy such a tax"
 "The statutes of Connecticut. New York and Rhode Island have such a statute which has been tested out and under which taxes are now being col lected," said MT. Zander, who added, that the commission would recommend that that tax on business for Arizona be determined by similar methods to those used in assessing private car lines in the state.
 "This method simply consists of de- termining the value of business in Ari- zona and then applying the general av- craze rate to that valuation and turn ing the collections over to the state treasurer. The commission has no idea as to what this tax will amount to, but there is no doubt it will run upward to $10O,00O annually and perhaps $20O,- 900. At the same time it is only fair an dust, as all these outside concerns compete with Arizona firms and cor porations.7

Mir. Zander declared that it should be turned over to the tax commission from the state treasurer's jurisdiction for the same reason that other tax matters are handled by the commits sion.
 'If it is logical to allow the treas urer to administer the inheritance tax, by the same line of reasoning the state auditor should administer the bank tax; the corporation commission the tax on corporations; the secretary of state the automobile tax, and for far greater reasons, the mine inspector the mine tax, and SO on with each department administering to some property, elim- mating the tax commission.''
 Mir. Zander said that the history of taxation in Arizona and a large num- Der of other states has demonstrated that this method of tax administration is confusion doubly confounded."

BY STUART r. WEST.

NEW YORK. February 2s.--The Wall
street market of the past week has
been the exact reverse of the market
bull movement in the first week in
November Precisely the same specu-
lative crowd that was then enthusias-
ticaiiy buying stocks and talking
about very much higher prices this
week has been lavishly selling short
and predicting panic. If it were pos
sible to analyZe the short account as
it now stands we should probably
find a pretty close parable! in volume,
in quality and in personnel to the long
account as it stood four months ago.
The analogy between the Specula-
tive buyers of November and the spec
ulative sellers of February is the
feature about the present stock mar
ket which perhaps appeals most to
men of experience. They admit that
they can see no immediate signs of
permanent turn for the better. They
recognize that there are serious prob
lens which remain to be settled. Yet
remembering what has happened in
the past. they do not lose sight of
the fact that a downward movement
cannot go on indefinitely: that at some
stage the most unfavora BILE surround
ings are discounted by the price level
and that long before the outside sit
uation clears up the market. moving
as it always does far ahead of events,
has measured the worst.
Significant Symptom.
Inasmuch as one of the unfailing
signs of the approach of this stage
is widespread exuberant specula-
tion on the bear side. the person of
experience cannot help feeling >that
the universal bearishness. which has
characterized the past week. and the
wholesale speculation on the short
side by people who rarely make
money in Wall street in the long
run. is a very significant symptom.

STOCKS IRREGULAR;
FIRM TO STRONG.
BY STUART r. WEST.
Special Correspondent Of The Star.

1
WALL STREET. n. Y. February
2s.-Today's market pursued much the
same irregular course as the market
of yesterday had done. The general
disposition was to do very little in
| the way of making new commitments
pending the definite approval by the
President of the new railroad measure
and also with the uncertainty of what
the FeIc..l Reserve Bank statements
to be issued after the close of Husi-
ness would show.
Railway shares were generally
strong. especially the low-priced is
sues. but even in them there was quite
disposition to take profits around
yesterdays high prices.
Oil shares were firm on the an
! the price of the product and the en-
phasIs laid freshly upon the scarcity
OF OIL. both present and prospective.
mere was also. some special demand
tor the equipment stocks on better
appreciation of the growth which has
since the first Of the year and which
is likely to continue rapidly after
the railroads are returned to private
hands.
Looking for Figures.
The American Locomotive figures for
the last six months of 1919, which
VIII be out next week. will be watched
with particular interest because of
the expectation in well informed
quarters that it will make wonder
full showing as compared with the
first six months of the year.
Desultory pressure was directed
| against some of the steel shares and
some OF the motors, but bearish oper-
atlons were not as confident as they
had been on other DAYS
Inc bear party was relying upon
another poor bank showing. and it
was pretty well conceded that if this
especially if the federal reserve
bank ratio should display an increase
OF consequence, a sharp reversal in
the stock market would be in order.
Copper Experts Views.
Despite the fact that several of the
forphyry Copper companies, in addi-
ton to showing a deficit for last year.
have cut their dividend, an expert
on the red metal situation has the
following to say: The surplus stocks
of copper held abroad have been com
| pletely cleared from the market and
there never was a time. except during
certain periods of the war. when for
elSh countries were completely bare
Of copper supplies. The English evil
dcntly have taken only the conner
this would influence the price Of COP
per IN the United States. consequently
| placing them in a position later to
make very heavy purchases at lower
prices.
1t is now evident that the large
producers plan to continue production
curtailment on the present basis until
demand is such that practically all
available copper is taken from the
market. 1t looks as though we would
soon reach hand-to-mouth position
IN the copper metal market wherein
consumption would more than eoual
production and any increase in pro-
ductlon would be met by CORE
spending or even larger increase in
consumption.
We look for deve Iopments in the
copper metal market that will bring
about condition that will keep all Of
our producers working to maximum
capacity by the middle Of the year to
meet demand
