Are State Taxes
Excessive?

There is no subject more involved,
or about which more discussion has
centered than that Of taxation.
Some Of the discussion is intelli-
gent, while most OF it deals in
meaningless generalities.
There is no phase Of the financial
transactions of the State Of Arizona
about which there is any veil of
secrecy.
The laws Of the State provide for
adequate auditing and reports show
ing expenditures Of public funds,
and these are available for the study
Of the people of the State.
A great deal has been said and
printed, from time to time, about the
mounting burden of State taxes.
THIS CRITICISM DOES NOT HOLD
TRUE AS REGARDS THE STATE
OF ARIZONA.
With the money raised for State
purposes, the State maintains the
State university two teachers col
leges, the prison, the asylum, the
Industrial school, the pioneers home,
all State offices, boards and commits
sions and the State Highway de-
partment.
OF money raised by taxes in the
State of Arizona, only IT per cent
was actually spent for State pur-
poses in 1925. The percentage will
be less in 1926.
OF the II per cent of the money
raised for actual State purposes for
the year, 1925, 1879 per cent went
into permanent capital investment
for the purchase of land, the erec

that went into the construction or
roads and bridges.
The taxes for state purposes In
1926 will be less than they were in
1925.
The taxes OF the State Of Arizona
for 1925 were less than they were
in 1919, and over a million dollars
less than they were in 1921.
After allowing for the appro-
priation for permanent capital in
vestment, the increase in the levy
for common schools, due to the
5000 increase in the number OF chill
dren. the taxes for State purposes in
1925 were less than they were in the
fiscal year 1922.
Chart No. 9 shows a comparison
of the amounts raised by various
classes OF taxation from the years
1913 to 1925 inclusive. A study OF
the chart will verify the accuracy OF
the statements made in the previous
paragraphs.
Total Taxes Raised for State, Coun-
ty, City and District Purposes
for the Fiscal Year 1925-26.
Table No. / and Chart No. show
the aggregate, direct taxes raised
upon all the tax rolls Of all the
counties of the State for all general,
county, city, town, district and state
purposes.
The total amount aggregates $17.-
685, 1863 for the fiscal year commenc-
ing July 1, 1925, and ending June

OF this amount $4,99S,97S was

John J. Savage of Foley street Bristol, was fined $1O0 and costs and sentenced to jail for five days by Judge B. w.

ABUSE OF POWER"
Says Woods Action Abolish.

Aids independence Move.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MANILA, November 12.-The dis
pleasure of political opponents Of
Gov. Gen. Wood over his recent action
in abolishing the insular Board of
Control began cropping out today.
The governor generals move was
attacked in a statement by Manuel
Quezon. president of the Senate. in
which he declared the action would
pendence. 1t also criticized Gen. Wood
for awaiting adjournment Of the Legis-
lature before issuing the abolition
order.
The statement said. in part:
THE laws creating the Board of
Control are valid. and should be so re-
garded by every law-abiding citizen
until declared unconstitutional by the
courts.
IF the opinion of the judge advo-
cate general and the Attorney General
of the United States were sought for
the purpose Of correcting what was
considered defective legislation. Gov
Gen. Wood should have placed these
opinions before the Legislature prior
to it's adjournment together witt
recommendations. This would have al
lowed the Legislature to give the mat.
ter careful consideration. Instead, ths
governor general withheld this infor-
nation and issued an executive order
abolishing the board after adjourn
ment of the Legislature, notwith-
standing the fact the correspondence
inclosing the opinions was received
by him November I. two days before
adjournment.
Every abuse Of power committed
by the governor general only serves
to convince our people that independ-
ence alone would safeguard our
rights
