State tax commissioner, william
H. Hackett, Is among those expect
ed to attend, as one Of the impor-
tant questions to be discussed will
be in connection with a tax law
adopted by the 1885 general assem-
bly,. This law concerns the ques.
ton Of taxes on boats and yachts

hoped it will be made clear that
there Is no tax whatsoever on such
craft.

builders, repair and service yards,
