Taylor Secretary Agricultural Legislative Committee California's tangled financial and taxation problem, paramount issue of the 1933 state legislature, both in its relation to agriculture and the welfare of the state generally, is still far from solution. With the lawmakers back in their home districts for the 30-day intermission between sessions, the legislative box score for the first month tallies about as follows: On Economy Issues Refusal to submit emergency measures to the people to curtail school costs or other "fixed charges." Refusal to accept the Rolph budget for the coming two years, due largely to its provisions for shifting certain costs back to the counties and local government. Failure, at the first session, to submit a substitute budget. Recommendations, through the Bush economy committee, for many drastic and far-reaching reductions in the cost of general government. The work of this committee constituted the only positive action of the session toward effecting economy. On Taxation Issues Many programs, but no action. The chief characteristic of the legislative mind on tax questions, during the open-session, was indecisiveness. This was due, in part, to a wide divergence of opinion on the part of general taxpayers and public bodies on means of equipping the tax load. Introduction of measures to increase taxes on public utilities, especially phone and power companies. Submission, during the last day of the session, of a plan for sweeping vision of the state and county structure. This program, the comprehensive and revolutionary submitted, was drafted by State controller Ray L. Riley and introduced Senators Jerrold Seawell, Placer County Will Sharkey, Contra Costa county Edward H. Tickle, Monterey county L. Pierovich, Amador county; Brad S. Crittenden, San Joaquin county; Bert B. Snyder, Santa Cruz county; Joe Riley, Inyo county, and Leonard Difani, Riverside county. Casting up the ledger on the first session, the chief danger to the tax seems to lie in the indecisiveness of legislature—the possibility that it is to "get together" on a program thwart solution of the problem, terminate in the imposition of a valorem, or state property tax. Most reassuring, however, in indicating that the legislators are seeking way out of the financial wilderness the growing recognition that a property tax would be ruinous to culture and business alike and something must be done to lighter oppressive burden on owners of property. The far-reaching Riley plan, which is yet to be weighed and tested, demonstrates a commendable determination to cope with the problem. In brief, this plan would cut into present taxes on farm and other property, limiting to 50 per cent amount of county and state revenue that could be raised from taxes on Bill of $60.00, zanjero's salary for August, plus $1.00 labor, allowed. Zanjero reported everything in satisfactory condition. Written communication from P. Hammes, stating that water he was to have on Sunday evening; August 21st, failed to reach him, but was used on the lots of Keller and Rust, Mr. Schmidt and Schnelder would testify to that fact. Mr. Hammes demanded $25.00 damages, resulting from the condition inasmuch as neither the accused or the witnesses were present, letter was tabled. The request from Mr. Rehm for a gate at the east end of Stappenbeck's lot to prevent the water from always flooding street, was referred to general meeting. Water sales for $9.00, reported.

Anaheim, Calif., Feb. 9, 1933 and personal property and improvements. It would also return all public utility corporation property to the counties for taxation, junking the present state gross receipts tax, and providing, as a substitute, for the levying of a low percentage gross income tax on every person and business in the state to raise revenues for both counties and state above the 50 per cent collected through real estate taxes. While there are objectionable features to a gross income tax, due to the fact that it pyramids through a tax on each turnover, Controller Riley contends that this is partially offset by a huge tax base which would permit an exceedingly light tax, estimated at not more than 1 per cent. The program is revolutionary in scope and will require thorough study before California farmers render their verdict. But, regardless of the merit or lack of merit in the plan itself, it is an attempt to solve the problem.
