Taylor Secretary Agricultural Legislative Committee Blazing new revenue trails, California starts, this week, to put into practical operation the first of a series of revolutionary tax changes which amount to almost a complete reversal of its basic theories of taxation. The paramount change of the new tax deal is the overthrow of the age-old principle that property should be the chief guide to the individual's tax bill. Replacing this theory is the new policy of making buying power and income important factors in determining tax payments. Here, in brief, are the high points of the new order: 1. A 2½ per cent sales tax (to be reduced to 2 per cent in 1935), estimated to raise from $80,000,000 to $100,000,000 during the coming two years. Practically no exemptions. 2. A state income tax, ranging from 1 per cent in the lower brackets to 5 per cent in the high, expected to yield from $10,000,000 to $14,000,000 during the ensuing biennium. This may be vetoed by Governor Rolph, however. 3. An increased inheritance tax to bring in $1,500,000 additional. 4. Repeal of the ad valorem, or state property tax. This also is in danger of veto by the governor. Leading up to the new and far-reaching tax measures were two factors: First, a bankrupt state treasury, with present and impending deficits amounting to from $40,000,000 to $50,-000,000. Second, adoption of the Riley-Stewart tax relief plan at the special election, relieving the counties of raising $76,000,000 per biennium in school costs and transferring this load to the state. Formerly obtained by a tax on homes, farms and common property generally, this money will now be derived largely from the sales tax. The victorious fight for adoption of an income tax was led by farm and labor groups who cited the fact that History of Anaheim Officially Recorded In Minutes of Anaheim Water Company, Which are Copyrighted, 1932, by Anaheim Gazette, and Printed In Weekly Installments April 20, 1872. The meeting called to order by Vice President Dietrich Strodthoff. All members present. The treasurer reports cash receipts of $45.07 and $335.25. Zanjero reports that the water broke out on the river, the repair being completed, and the water in Anaheim on Friday morning. The new ditch now in good running order, but not fit to pass a stream to be divided here in two currents. Bills to workmen, $78.50, whereof $65.50 above D. Kremer. Committee service of D. Strodthoff, $2. Advertising in Southern Californian $4.00. Zanjero declared himself incapable to do all the work himself, because being obliged to spend most of his time on the river, he would not be present to turn on the water in proper time. The water having failed so often, the motion made and carried not to sell any water tonight, and the zanjero ordered to distribute according to order all back water. Then the board adjourned. A. Heyermann, Secretary. April 20, 1872. Regular general meeting. Their being a full quorum present, the vice president, Dietrich Strodthoff, called the meeting to order. No business of importance on hand, the committee, Henry Kroeger and Rudolph Luedke, appointed to revise the books of treasurer and secretary. The election of a board of trustees for May 4, 1872. All members present. The president, Rudolph Luedke, called the meeting to order, the minutes were read and accepted. The inside zanjero reports that most every day in the week the water gives out from 5 to 13 hours, and that there is no water tonight since 5 o'clock inside Anaheim. The zanjero, H. Knapke, reports that the ditch near the river is very bad, all along down in pretty fair order except above D. Kremer, which is full of sand, and there it needs still more work. A suggestion made by him that if this ditch be lengthened about 2000 yards more, or up, a well regulated stream could easy be brought in. Treasurer reports due $141.82. Bills of inside zanjero to him and workmen, $43.12; zanjero's workmen on river $52.12, all above D. Kremer. Mr. A. Langenberger spoke in behalf of William Higgins, and after debating for some time resolved, Mr. Higgins to open Santa Ana street, bridge the ditch all on his own expenses, whatever is needed, in part consideration where-of him to use the willow trees for firewood. Privilege of water bought by: William Higgins, 45 acres in No. 12; David Davis, 46 acres in No. 40; Bell Swaney, 40 acres in No. 23 and portion No. 25. Resolved, to give two hours the water for $1. Resolved, the board of trustees to act as committee to go tomorrow to the river, see into the suggestion made by zanjero and act accordingly. Resolved, to divide sand brought in on divide of north and resolved, the ditch on south side of H-1, until the corner is and be declared a company's ditch, on account of Bell Swaney hav- First, a statement sale treasury, with present and impending deficits amounting to from $40,000,000 to $50,-000,000. Second, adoption of the Riley-Stewart tax relief plan at the special election, relieving the counties of raising $76,000,000 per biennium in school costs and transferring this load to the state. Formerly obtained by a tax on homes, farms and common property generally, this money will now be derived largely from the sales tax. The victorious fight for adoption of an income tax was led by farm and labor groups who cited the fact that two-thirds of the sales tax will be paid by men and women of small income and demanded that the income levy be enacted to catch "the big fellows" and offset this inequality. The income tax bill rates are as follows: First $4,000 of net income 1 per cent; next $4,000 net income. 2 per cent; third $4,000 net income. 3 per cent; next $38,000 net income. 4 per cent; all net income in excess of $50,-000. 5 per cent. The same exemptions are allowed as in the federal act. Even though Governor Rolph should veto the income tax, which is not improbable, present trends strongly indicate that he will merely postpone the inevitable. Two years hence, when utility property is returned to the counties for local taxation, in accord with another provision of the Riley-Stewart plan, the state will again be forced to forage for new revenues and an income tax seems a practical certainty at that time, regardless of present action. From the farmer's standpoint, the start toward abandonment of the property tax as the main source of governmental revenue is a big move in the right direction, even though the new tax measures are admittedly experimental and far from a perfect tax program. Agriculture yielded to the sales tax, realizing that it bears most heavily on the wage earner an dthe man of small income, but realizing also that there was no other means available to raise necessary revenues. And it sought to balance the inequalities of the sales levy by driving through the income tax on the man of wealth. How the new tax measures will work out in practical operation only time can tell, but it is to be hoped that they will relieve at least some of the inequalities of the old property tax system.

We got out of our berths at a quarter after eight, shaved that was required of us. We were up and dressed and would be ready for business when the train pulled in at a little before ten. But this man of whom nothing was actually required, was doing far more. I thought to myself as we passed on to our leisurely breakfast, "That explains him; now I understand Hughes."

Where will a man ever get, you ask, if he delivers twice as much as he is paid to deliver? The answer is that unless he's a fool he will probably get to and stay at the top. I remember once traveling from Chicago to New York on the Twentieth Century Limited. We were due in the Grand Central Station of nine-forty, a nice leisure hour, and three of us who were traveling together decided to make a comfortable morning of it. We got out of our berths at a quarter after eight, shaved and dressed and half an hour later were making our way back to the dining-car. A door to one of the drawing-rooms was open, and as we walked by we could hardly keep from looking in. The bed in the room had been made up long since; a table stood between the windows, and at the table, buried in work, was a man whose face the newspapers have made familiar to everyone. He had been Governor of New York, a Justice of the Supreme Court, a candidate for the Presidency of the United States, and was—at the time—practising law and reputed to be earning as much more than a hundred thousand dollars a year. My companions and I were young men; he was well along in middle life. We were poor and unknown; he was rich and famous. We were doing all that was required of us. We were up and dressed and would be ready for business when the train pulled in at a little before ten. But this man of whom nothing was actually required, was doing far more. I thought to myself as we passed on to our leisurely breakfast, "That explains him; now I understand Hughes." I have several times been in the offices of J. P. Morgan and Company after six o'clock in the evening. I remember vividly the mental picture which I once had of what such a private banking house must be—the partners coming down in limousines at eleven and leaving at three, after having given their nonchalant approval to a million dollar deal. But on the occasion of one of the visits to which I refer the offices were closed. The clerks, and assistants—and even the elevator men had gone, leaving only night-watchmen. Night-watchmen, and some of the partners. There seems to be always lights in the partners' offices no matter what the hour. Of the office force it is required that they travel the one mile which lies between nine o'clock in the morning and five o'clock at night. But the partners travel the second mile; have always traveled it all their lives; and are partners because they have. Sprayers Adopt Tentative Code George Bettin of Glendora was named president, B. H. Prentiss of Anaheim vice president, and Ray Carter of Charter Oaks, secretary-treasurer, of the 250 sprayers of Southern California who met in Anaheim Monday afternoon to formulate a code of fair competition. The sprayers voted favorably on a proposed code which establishes minimum wages, maximum hours of labor, and a minimum price for contract work. This code must be approved by counsel and referred back to the association's board of directors. Jobless President Asks Reconsideration President Charles Eaton of the Anaheim Co-operative Workers, Inc., Tuesday night by letter requested the city council to reconsider its decision to discontinue financial assistance to the jobless organization. The council previously had been forced by state law to decline further assistance after August 1, because of written protests by Carroll C. Stowett and Martin Englehart. The law specifically prohibits contributions of any kind to any incorporated group. "Anaheim Water Company, Gazette, and Events May 4, 1872. The present.

Raymond Cato, chief of the California highway patrol, declared in an interview in which he blamed speed as the most potent factor in fatal motor accidents. Pointing to tests made by the Society of Automobile Engineers, Cato said a car traveling at the legal rate of speed of 45 miles an hour actually travels 66 feet per second. But increase that speed to 55 miles an hour and the car travels at the rate of 80.7 feet per second while the person traveling 65 miles an hour moves his car at the rate of 95.3 feet per second. With four wheel brakes in perfect condition it requires 217 feet to stop a car going at 65 miles an hour! "It takes most drivers at least a second to react to danger before he makes a move," said Cato. "If he is doing 65 an hour that means he travels nearly 100 feet before his foot even touches the brake. Then he will travel 217 feet more before he will stop." Thus it will be seen just how important is the split second. "The moral is to drive at the legal rate of speed and avoid situations so full of danger." Three Hitch-hikers Granted Probation Hitch-hikers Clara Miller, Pearl Miller and F. W. Underwood, involved in the theft of an automobile and $44 cash from Balboa's Bob Allen in July, were granted probation for three years by Judge G. K.

Followers of tennis confidently expected to see the American Davis Cup team return to the United States from overseas with the Davis Cup. Instead the United States was defeated by England and didn't even get to play France. That certainly is a beautiful race in the American League. The New York Yankees are in the lead one day and the Washington Senators the next. Volmapi Iso-Hollo, the young Finnish runner and Olympic steeplechase champion, broke the world record for four miles the other day at Viborg, Finland. In an athletic meet, covering the distance in 19 minutes and one second. The other day at Phoenixville, Pa., a woodpecker landed on a baseball umpire's head during a ball game. Would give three cents to know what the bird was thinking about. For the second time in succeeding months Matt Jarvinen of Finland has broken the world's record for throwing the javelin. The Olympic champion competing in an athletic meet at Vaasa, Finland, made a throw of 74.61 meters, approximately 244 feet. A terrific double duel of tackles is in prospect for the Century of Progress all-star football game the night of August 24, in Chicago, with Dal Marvil and Jack Riley, Northwestern 1931 behemoths, aligned against Southern California's great 1932 pair of Ernie Smith and Tay Brown.

Mrs. Helen Wills Moody, many times winner, will seek to regain championship honors. Miss Alice Marble, of California, will bear watching in this tournament. She is a coming champion. It is proposed to shift the franchise of the St. Louis Browns to Montreal. Baseball, boxing, golf, horse shows, polo, racing, tennis, yachting—these are all offered to the visitors to New York these days. The sports season is at its height. Mrs. Oliver C. Grinnell, of New York, for twenty hours, from shortly after 9 o'clock one Thursday morning until just after 5 o'clock Friday morning battled a 450-pound broadbill swordfish. Mrs. Grinnell turned her rod over to the Captain, Wally Baker, after ten hours of battling. The fish was landed at the end of 20 hours. And all almost within shouting distance of New York. There is agitation in the east to have two minute rest periods between rounds of boxing.
