Stunning that the number Of places

sum of s43,350 In view Of the reams
of statistics which were published on
the subject of revenue which this
particular gambling bill would bring,
one wonders If the proponents of the

COOP WELLS PRODUCE
OIL FOR COOP REFINERY

N. KANSAS CITY, Mo.-Seven Co
op oil wells are now supplying crude
oil for the Coop refinery at Phillips
burg, Kansas, according to Howard
A. Cowden, president of the Consum-
ers Cooperative Association which
serves 484 local cooperative associa-
lions in nine midwestern states.
The sixth well drilled by the Co-ops
came in January 26 and has a po-
tential production of 2,576 barrels OF
crude oil per day. One well was al
ready in operation when the Co-ops
bought a substantial interest in the
Beardmore lease near Laton, Kan, In
September.
In spite of the fact that the refinery
had been in operation only half of It's
first fiscal year which closed July 81,
1910, it ended the year in the black
and dividend checks aggregating $13,-
600 were mailed to almost 1000 CO.

made direct investment in 1t.

HOUSE ROLL
CALL VOTE ON
eleven BILLS

Editors Note: The purposes and
provisions of all bills but three OF
those on which the votes have been
tabulated below in this issue, have
been detailed in previous issues of
The Voice. The purposes Of the three
bills not heretofore carried, are re-
corded below:
H.B. 337-This was bill which was
supposed to take the place and to
some limited extent accomplish the
purposes of H. B. SO, which would
have authorized municipalities and
counties to raise adequate funds for
the continuation of sponsorship of w.
p. A. projects. AS passed, 1t includes
amendments by the senate which
seem to make it entirely useless. The
vote recorded is on the concurrence
with the senate amendments.
n. 3. 394-This measure was an
emergency" bill introduced after the
regular period for introduction OF
bills 1t provided an appropriation of
$4,000 which will all finally accrue
to the insurance companies of the
state. The insurance story, including
the story of an investigation will be
covered in later issues of The Voice.
This roll call is the way in which
the house members voted on what
practically amounts to a subsidy of
the insurance companies
H. B. 1o2-This is a measure appro-
priating $4,000 for advertising the
state In the East to attract tourists.
This bill is covered in an article else
where in this issue.

Income Tax

would place an unreasonable burden
upon those least able to carry it."
The law was put into effect in In
diana when schools were being closed
and chaos reigned in the states fl
nances. During the past year in ex-
cess of $20,000,000 was raised with
| the gross income tax and the state
| has been able to lower property tax
approximately 80 percent.
One party stated while speaking in
opposition to the proposed tax that
Indiana is at the present time trying
to amend its law for the retailers.
This matter was taken into account in
drawing up the bill and the tax called
for was the same as that proposed
by the change so that the total
amount to only one-fourth of one per-
cent, thereby placing burden on no
one
While the gross income tax does
not place the burden upon those who
are unable to bear it, it also differs
from sales tax measures due to the
fact that 1t does not cost large per-
cent of the income for the collection
and is an easy means of figuring the
amount due so that it does not make
a lot of extra bookkeeping for bust
ness houses, manufacturers. profess
sional people orr workers.
| contend that the gross income tax
is a step in the right direction and
sooner or later Montana must take up
a different tax method or property
owners will find it much cheaper to
rent than to own their own homes.
Farm and labor groups as well as the
various business organizations would
do well to make study of this tax
ing method during the next two years
so that the measure could be given
sound study at the next session of the
legislature and not be confused with
sales tax.
