WIPE M|LL-TAX
 |S VOTE EFFECT
tt'rom Thursdays DaiIy)

PHOENIX, March 29.-By adopt ing an amendment proposed by Sen ator Elliott to the financial code, the state yesterday voted to wipe off the statute books the university mill tax, a measure which was adopted by the last legislature as means of keep ing the university out of politics.
 The amendment is regarded as an attempt to continue a semblance of the mill tax system, in that it al- lows every legislature the privilege of determining what the rate shall be, but the mill tax of a definite amount providing a definite continu- ing appropriation is kicked into abli- vion.
 The surprising feature of the whole consideration of this matter was that not one senator saw fit to come to the defense of the university. Sen ator Stoddard of Maricopa took oc- casion to make bitter attack against the entire mill tax system, producing figures to show that, as he said, only two states in the union were supporting their educational in- stitutions in this manner Some of the states which had formerly been on the mill tax system had gone back to straight appropriation of a definite sum, and in support of these contentious he read a wire which he had just received from the federal bureau of education.
 The object of instituting the mill tax system for the university was to secure yearly appropriation of all amount which would meet the needs of the institution, and be in keeping with the degree of pros perity of the state as represented by the total assessed valuation. Such a plan, it was pointed out at the time, would make it no longer nec- essary for the university to send lobby to the legislature from Tue son, 10 come to Phoenix every two years, prepared to. trade their votes for any measure that the university might be kept going.

ROAD BOND VOTERS AND THEIR STATUS
 SHOWN IN OPINION
(From Wednesdays Daily) fJournal-Miner Capital BureaD


 PHOENIX, March 2S. - w. J Galbraith, attorney general, made public today an opinion respecting the qualifications of voters at road bond election. The opinion is in re. sponse to an inquiry from the Saf' ford Chamber of Commerce and the board of supervisors of Graham county, where a bond election is tc be held at an early date.
 In view of the number of such bond elections which will be held in other counties this year, the opinion is regarded as one of general interest
 Three inquiries were propounded as follows:
 q. At an election of the property taxpayers to determine whether bonds shall be issued for the purpose oi constructing or improving any pub lie highway, must the voter be tax payer on real estate, or on either real or personal property?
 "2. How recently should the voter have paid taxes?
 $. Can both husband and wife vote who own community property, standing the name of but ono of them?"
 After quoting the constitution and the law on the matter the attorney general concludes:
 First. That it is sufficient if the proposed voter be a taxpayer on either real estate or personal prop erty.
 Second. That the taxpayer should have paid taxes on property for the last year they were due and payable, or his name should appear up on the assessors books of such county for the current year.
 Third. That both husband and wife can vote at such highway bond election Gf otherwise qualifieD where either ono, at the time of the election, paid taxes on community property for the last year they were due, or when their name, or the name of either, appears upon the as sessor's books as being assessed for taxes upon real or personal com- munity property.
 Any married man or woman, otherwise qualified, whose wife or husband pays state and county taxes on community property owned by such husband and wife, is entitled to vote
 Community property is property acquired by either husband or wife during their marriage, otherwise than by gift, devise or descent, except that property earned by the wife and her minor children while she was living separate and apart from her husband, is the separate property of such wife.
 "In other words, community prop erty is property earned during the by the husband, or by the wife while living with her husband, or by both.
 If partnership pays taxes in its name on real or personal property, that will entitle each partner, being otherwise qualified to vote"

ELLIOTT HAS FINANCE CODE
 DAY AND NIGHT
From Wednesaay-p Daily)

II OA-NA~AJ hldi Sll 70. - OcNGlOp- ments in the legislature today were: Second reading of the financial code, requiring nearly all day and part of the night;
 Introduction in the senate of a bill requiring persons or corporations us- ing the public highways for profit to pay dividend equal to 20 percent of their total receipts;
 Passage of house bill 7l providing expenses of the legislative session for Is more days;
 Consideration by the house of the banking code
 In the highway tax bill introduced by Senator Wilkinson and Elliott is a provision requiring companies using the highways to pay monthly to the state treasurer 20 percent of their gross receipts. Revenue from this source would be divided between the state and counties, the state engineer to determine the distance the lines run over state highways and the dis tancc over county highways. The tax will be divided in that ratio. Penalties are provided for violations of the bills provisions.
 Elliott's Amendments
 When the financial code was taken up in the senate for second reading to finance code several amendments were presented by Senator Elliott in charge of the bill. These amend ments all related to clauses of the code affecting the public school fund the University of Arizona appropri- ation and the state highway depart mcnt, and are designed to meet ob- jections offered by those affected, and at the same time to preserve the structure of the code.
 The state teachers association 5 legislative committee demanded that the code contain continuing appro- priation of not less than $25 per capita for the state school fund MT. Elliott's amendment does not contain the appropriation, but authorizes the legislature to make such all annual appropriation. Another amendment makes similar provision for the an nual levy for the support of the university.
 Senator Elliott later presented amendments to paragraphs of the code relating to the state highway department. He said they were pre- pared after a conference with State Engineer Maddock, and were intend ed to overcome criticism which the state engineer had offered to the bill. Sections concerning new con struction work and the revolving fund were amended.
 Senator Lines today moved re- consideration of the vote by which house bill 10 repeating all act creat- ing the office of immigration com- missioner had been defeated. The motion was defeated by party vote.
 House bill 7l a substitute for house bill ,, the Kimball bill was in troduccd i'll the house and passed under suspension of the rules.
