Nv J.. G.. BASKERVILLE

Raleigh, Jan. 16.-The legislatures
joint committee on finance has made
more progress this week in shaping
the revenue bill than has ever been
accomplished 10y any similar group in
recent years, Commissioner of Rev.
enue A. J. Maxwell believes.
"The present finance committee is
way ahead of any which has function
ed here within my recollection" said
Mr.. Maxwell who has seen many leg
islative sessions, and who is more in
timately in contact with the finance
group than any other State official.
The committee began it's considera-
ton of the revenue measure Tuesday
afternoon and since then has met
every afternoon for several hours. It
has been noted that practically every
member has attended practically
every meeting of the committee and
that there has been no lost motion.
Taking up the proposed revenue bill
section by section, every member has
been given an opportunity to advance
any views he holds and to offer any
objections to the bill as drafted. In
the main there have been few chan
ges proposed. Particular attention has
been paid to every new section in
cluded in the bill.
Of course the chief controversial
features of the bill-its sales tax pro-
visions and the proposed new taxes
on intangible not been reached
and these may slow up the committee
more than a little, but as things now
stand the group is some three or four
weeks ahead of those of the last few
legislatures.
Representative Victor S. Bryant, of
Durham, is chairman of the House
Finance Committee, and Senator Err
nest v. Webb, Kinston, of the Senate
committee.
