Expresses Thanks
President clapp. in his closing
address, after expressing thanks
for the cooperation, support and
advice given him. remarked:
ut is my personal feeling that
a chamber of commerce can never
be universally popular. II Is only
human for people TO criticize. and
1t seems natural that when any,
thing goes wrong In Tacoma the
chamber of commerce should bear
the brunt of the blame this
condition can never be eliminated.
but 1t can be reduced. substan-
tial progress has been made in the
last year Efforts have been
made to convince residents OF
various outlying districts that
every citizen Is a welcome and
vital factor in the community.
Desirable Arrangement
THE chamber has members re-
siding in every district and vir-
tually every section of city and
county Is represented on its board
of directors. This has proven a
most desirable arrangement.
we feel that we have gone a
long way towards obtaining the
confidence of organized labor in
the community. We believe that
this great group realizes the pros
perity Of labor is dependent upon
the prosperity of business and that

try for big increase in revenue from
soft drink taxes, and plans to get not
less than 100000 annually.
Another pickup is looked for in
State income taxes on salaries of
Federal officials and emp Dyes, but,
of course, this will be possible only
if the Federal government finally
adopts the plan of taxing all state
sa aries and permits reciprocal levies
by the states. This seems quite
probable, however, and when Gf) it
comes to pass the State expects to
get something like $4,000 to $780,
600 in these income taxes
Then there's still another balanc-
ing factor which Senator Taylor did
not mention to his committee Friday,
but which does in fact, increase
money available to meet appropria-
tons. That's the transfer of $780,

a matching basis it seems obvious
that this transfer means lot more
than appears on the surface.
Briefly apitulating, it seems
that there are, on the face of the
record, revenue losses of 100000 a
year from building material exemp-
tions, and 100000 a year from the
ntangibles turned back to the local
government units.
On the other hand, there have been
pick-ups of $15O,OOO in estimated
revenue from slot machines, and $685.
600 annually from plugged loopholes
in income and other taxes.
The committee has yet to determine
how much re ief if any, will be given
the railroads. Few think. there is
any chance of more than five cent
reduction in the franchise tax on
the rails, which would cut revenue
about $4,000 Of course there would
be a similar loss for every additional
five-cent cut
All in all, it seems that the fellows
who are getting so worried by appa-
rent unIbalancing of the budget are
working themselves into lather all
for nothing. In due course of time
