The collections from all sources , now amount to 13,250,000, every dol lar of which is needed to carry on the business of the stat .government. The " necessity for more money by reason of the six months school bill which will surely become a law this year and the deficit which is now confronting the state, have moved Chairmen Cook and Williams and their members to exert their best endeavors. 1 The plan calls for raising revenue from Incomes, inheritances and fran chises, three sources of revenue that have escaped their just proportion of government ln past years. The state now collects approximately $40,000 a year from incomes, whereas it ought to get $100,000 at a low estimate. The revenue and machinery act proposes to get this much and more. The in heritance tax, which has been a dead letter, raises only $5000 a year, where as it ought to place in the state treas ury at least $100,000.' The franchise tax has netted only $51,000, but It will be made to yield at least $150,000. There are numerous other legiti mate ways of making weajth pay its just proportion and the machinery has been placed ln the bill to do this. It Is believed with the checks and bal ances proposed, the machinery, for reaching the corporations and Indi viduals, that at least $350,000 will be collected.
