State to Face Dire Disaster
 Unless Tax Problem Is Righted

Jerome, Ariz. Sept. 16 = Startling figures on state and county taxation compiled by Harry Fennemore of Phoenix, one of the leading tax au- thorities of the southwest, featured the meeting of the Arizona chapter of the American Mining congress held in Jerome, and attended by a ma jority of the leading men of the state. Robert E. Tally of the United Verde Mining company. was in the chair when the meeting was ca''ed to order and in his opening address welcoming the delgates to the Verde district, stated briefly the objects of the meet ing and outlined the needs of the min ing industry if its is to recover from the present depression and if the mines and smelters of the state are to resume operations.
 Reasons For Condition
 He said that the suspension of op- erations from which the entire state and particularly this district has been suffering, was due to the absence of a demand for the metal, to excessive taxation, to largely increased freight charges and to excessive fuel costs He added that while wages had risen to an unreasonable height during the war days, there should be no further reductions in this item of expense at this time He believed, however, that frieght. taxes and fuel can come down and must come down before it will be possible to resume profitable op- eration.
 Fennemore Speaks
 He hinted that steps have been taken already to effect a lowering of these items of cost and that con siderable progress has been made with corresponding probability of such measure of success as will enable fairly early reopening of the states mines He introduced Attorney liar ry Fenr emore of Phoenix as one of the leading tax experts of the state and announced the subject of his ad- dress as Mine Taxation Problems" ;"
 Condition is Acute
 MT Fennemore launched at once into the discussion, stating only that he intended to cover the general field of taxation without special reference to the mines, as the problems of all the taxpayers of the state are sub stantiallS similar and what affects the farmer. the business man and L00 cdILl6HdU, dneCIS diSO anu III equal measure, the mine operators. He said:
 "The tax pro'7Ienn i'7 Arizona is

 mand an immediate. remedy. The
 title given my address is some
 w1ae misleading. as l do not pro-

the other basic industries of the

the other basic industries of the
 state."
 After a brief reference to the theorical valuation of property in this state at it's full cash value and a statement that this ideal had not been reached by any manner of means, some kinds of property be- ing grossly over-assessed and others escaping their fair share of the gen eral burden, he called attention to the fact that all state and county tax es have risen to an incredible height and that such taxes, if continued for a few more years at the same rate of increase, will spell nothing less than complete confiscation within two de- cades.
 '.The cost of the state and county governments he said, ''has risen un- conscionably. The gross state ex- pense from 1912 to 1916 was approxi- mately $1,S0O,0o0 yearly; today it is over S6.000,O00 In the period men toned, the population of Arizona has increased only 60 per cent and the taxes have increased an average of 300 per cent.''
 He presented the following state ment covering the valuation and tax es since 1911:
 The gross valuation of the state for tax purposes in that year was | S9S, 100000 and the tax rate was 65 cents per s100
 | In 1912 the valuation had risen to $40, 100000; in 1913 it was $375, ,000,-
 900. and in 1914 it had increased to
 s407 ,0OO, ,000 and the rate was 441s {, cents.
 l In 1915 the assessed valuation was l $42O, 100000 and the rate was in {, creased to 54 cents. In 1916 the valuation was s4S6, 100000 and the l rate 40 cents In 1917 the valuation increased to s697, 100000 and the rate l 531s cents. ln 1918 the valuation ] was $S34 100000 and the rate 3! ! cents In 1919 the correspondinf | figures were $SS5, 900, 900 and 60 cents while in 1920 they were sSS4,000,0e' l and 471a cents.
 Schools and Roads 1 The speaker declared that the tw' most important factors in the exist l ing situation are the school and roa' levies. the amount raised by the stat for these purpose being S1,30C,C
 and s1,125. 900 respectively. He de clared that the school tax system i fundamentally wrong and that it de

mands immediate revision from top to bottom. He explained that there is absolutely no control possible over the school boards. The county sup erintendent has no authority and can but transmit to the supervisors the figures furnished by the school dis trict trustees-and the supervisors can not after these figures, but must make the tax levy required. The state superintendent of education is in exactly the same position and there is nobody to control or regulate such expenditures
 He assailed the silly "schooI
 census plan and claimed that the average daily attendance is the
 only sane basis on which to es-
 tabIish the tax levy.
 He advocated the building of neces- sary roads, but declared that the state is spending more than it can afford on this department.
 County Taxes
 The speaker made his auditors gasp when he presented figures proving that county tax rates have risen from ] 50 percent, in some counties, to 900 i percent in others and that the ayor- i age for the entire state is 600 per ! cent increase.
 1 He added that, from 1912 to 1915 there were practically no county bond issues and that such issues today to- tai more than $24.O0O,0o
 Confirms Statements
 Following the delivery Of k enne mores address, W. s. Boyd read 8 paper on the same topic, prepared by l.. 5. Gates, who was called east ' Ch h mess and could not attend the meeting.
 There was an almost uncanny sim ilarity in the figures adduced by MT Gates and those presented by tht Phoenix tax expert
 The general manager Of the Utah Copper company made his chief point that while the popu- 1, lation has increased but 62 per cent in ten years and the assessed
 valuation of property has in-
 creased 300 per cent in the same period, the actual Ievies for tax ation have increased more than 70 per cent in the face of the :, greater VaIuations-an increase out of all reasonable proportion.
 He cited the fact that New Mexico with population greater by 27,00 than that of Arizona. has a tax rat of S3.51 per capita as againe levy of S15.2S in this state. It shoul be mentioned here that the table ( comparative state levies printed i these columns was taken from MI Gates paper.
 |, Like MT. Fennemore. Mir Gates al solved Governor Campbell from rt sponsibility for the excessive burdens He showed that there has been positive reduction in the administr; tive expenses of the state and thf the average distribution of each do lar of taxes is 12 cents for municips purposes. 26 cents for state purpose and 61 cents for county Ievies.
 Chairmans Comment
 Robert Tally, commenting on tn Fennemore and Gates papers declare both had hit the nail squarely on tn | head and that the facts presente warranted immediate action by ever taxpayers in the state. He said tn; Governor Campbell is aware of til had conditions existing and that flu ther substantial reductions in stat expenditures may be looked for, tE governor being determined to effe, such savings, even if it becomes II cessary to call a special session of u legislature.

COURT DEGREES STUDENT
 MUST BE REINSTATED

Tucson, Oct 11-Declaring that Whereas it Cmanifestly appears to this court by the verified complaint of Joseph Conway, that . the de- fendants acting as president and fac ulty of the University of Arizona, have wrongfully refused to permit the said Joseph Conway to enter the University of Arizona as student therein" a writ of mandamus order ing the reinstatement of Conway or demanding a showing of cause to the contrary was issued in the su- perior court here today by order of Judge Fred L. Ingraham.
 Conway, who last spring was elected president of the student body of the institution for this coming college year, alleges that he was denied right to register for the last year of his law course. because of his alleged failure to render an accounting of his man ageship of "The Desert" the unlver- sity annual, promptly upon being ask ed for it last summer by the admin istration committee of the institution. Conway claims he later presented ms report to President von KleinSmld' who refused to consider it.
 The hearing on the writ has been set for October IT.

AMERICA FEEDS RUSSIA

America this winter will feed and clothe hundreds of thousands of Rus sian bolshevists and keep them from starving or freezing to death
 Russia has had just as good crop seasons as America, but America has not been undergoing the theories of revolution led by wild or corrupt fana- tics.
 America has not been trying to put crazy economic theories into prac- tice.
 America has been working, and has food for herself and to spare.
 Some things need adjusting in this country, to be sure, but we have not yet deemed it wise to burn the barn down in order to kill the rats.
 The Russians should think about these things while they are eating our bread this winter.
