Culver Wants Special Study Of Tax Problem And
 Report
STATE CAPITAL BUREAUl
 THE AGE-HERALD ! Mont gOmery. Ala. Aug. 20

The house committee on ways, means and appropriations will pass upon the resolution of Representa- tive C. S. Culver of Etowah provid- ing for an investigation of the state s tax system by joint legislative com mittee and for action on the com mittee's recommendations at another adjourned session or a special ses- sion next year.
 The resolution, which was offered Tuesday afternoon, was returned to the house by the rules committee Wednesday and referred to the ways, means and appropriations committee. MT. Culver offered it as a result of semi official information that assess ments of property for taxation have shown a great decrease during the past year which will reduce funds available for education, Confederate pension and general activities
 Mir. Culvers resolution follows:
 Whereas, the revenue bill as now enacted into law is recognized as be- ing probably inadequate to raise suf- ttcient funds to meet the nt essary expense of the state, county and city governments of this state; and,
 Whereas it Is desirable that an adequate bill should be drawn and enacted into law as soon as practi- cable, if said enacted revenue bill is found in the judgment of the gover- nor to be inadequate to meet such necessary expenses: therefore, be it.
 Resolved by the house of representatives, the senate concuring, That the governor be and is hereby empowered to appoint a commission, consisting of three mem bers of the house and two members of the senate, who shall act together with the chairman of the state tax commission to investigate the ques- tion of taxation in this state and who shall formulate as early as practi- cable a system of taxation which in their Judgment shall be adequate to meet such necessary expenses; which system, so formulated, may be con- sidered at an adjourned session of the legislature should there be an ad- Journed session and, if ther is no adjourned session, then spe- cial session of the legislature, to be called by the governor at any time, within his discretion. Such commission is hereby empowered to employ such experts as it may deem desirable in making such investiga, tion and formulating such system"
