Albuquerque morning journal. [volume] (Albuquerque, N.M.) 1903-1926, 1921-12-11

Mr., Asplund's paper is a fair
and comprehensive resume Of the
activities of the association since
It's organization There is little
that I can add TO il except to
more fully explain the motives
which as I conceive them have
mainly controlled our activities
1t is impracticable in any great
degree to separate the activities
and policies of the association
during the past two years from
those of the special revenue COM
mission appointed in 1920. For
most of that period the associa-
tion's resources were largely de-
voted to the work of the COM
mission. This was done with the
full approval of the directors of
the association. The policies de-
cided upon by the commission
were in the main similar to pol
icies which have all along been
advocated by the association. The
commission staff was in the main
the association staff. Much of the
data in the commissions report
was available because Of the ASSOC
cations prior research, It Is right
that these two bodies should in
public esteem stand or fall to-
gether. This is said with full
appreciation of the cordial CO.
operation of all the members of
the revenue commission.
OF the objects of the associa-
ton, as stated in its articles of
association, the first may be said
to have had a controlling mo-
tive in both the association and
commission activities. This was:
I. To aid, encourage. and pro-
mote the observance of economy
in administration of public bust
ness, in the state of New Mexico,
and in the counties, cities and
other political subdivisions there
of.
know that we have been
sometimes criticised for dwelling
too much upon the matter of
economy in the administration Of
public affairs, and that 1t has
been thought that this idea OF
economy has in our minds too
greatly overshadowed other con-
siderations to the exclusion OF
any well rounded conception or
governmental functions. This crit
icism has, however, been in no
unfriendly spirit, and is prob
ably due to the misconception OF
our idea of what the term econ1
omy, as related to public affairs
means. I submit that there Is no
other single phrase so safe to tie
to as expressive of what we are
looking for in connection with
government in this state. 1t is
quite conceivable that in a mar
row sense the term economy may
imply niggardliness and metric
iency, but in a broader sense Its
use in connection with general
government involves much more
than mere conception of care
full expenditure Of public monies.
II involves ideas as to the equit-
able assessment of property Tor
taxation, fair tax levies, efficient
tax collections, necessary legisla-
