Telling of the work of the Stat. Chamber, and contemplated taxation effecting all people of Pennsylvania, be said in part: "There is no doubt but that the" tax commission will renew its efforts raise additional Items or revenue proposing a state tax on incomes. To accomplish this, an amendment to the Constitution will be necessary so ac to give the legislatures the right to lay graded taxation. Other suggestions will be presented for keeping the direct Inheritance tax at two per cent, but make it only applicable to estates of $3,000 and upwards; to maintain the collateral inheritance tax at ten per cent; recommendations for the exemption of tax on real estate of certain classes, such as churches and public utilities and to reduce the tax. on char itable bequests to two per cent." Tax Collection Methods With regard to local taxation, he said: "Data gathered by the tax law revision commission in 1921 showed one township collector, near a large city, received $14,000 in fees for collecting taxes, 97 per cent of which was paid in two checks by two cor porations.

Coal township in North uuberland county with a population of 17,574 paid a local tax collector the borough of Throop in Lackawai.na county with a popula tion between 7,000 and 8,000, paid $15,000 in fees for local tax collections; Hanover township in Luzerne county with a population of 12,000 paid the collector of school taxes $9,800.

The same political power which creates a tax appraiser or tax collector also creates the member of the legislature. They are Jointly members of the same political family and the political parent, sometimes called the boss, will not tolerate any fraction among hia children. The only way In which this condi tion of affairs can be remedied is to create local sentiment for the general proposal and arouse this to such a pitch that the member of the Legislature will have to yield to the demands of his constituency and vote for a change. The power to arouse this' sentiment lies with you. If you will make your voice sufficiently strong, the Legislator will listen.

You can do more with the Legislator than I for with your request for his acquiescence is coupled the fact that you are a voter in his district, whereas I am not and generally 'speaking the r.verage member of the Legislature will be found going with the preponderance of sentiment in his district.

His last utterance from the altar of St. Peter's Cathedral, which he had so long adorned, was a plea to the members of his congregation to bs generous in their subscriptions to the annual drive so successfully completed last Monday.

At the meetings of this board the wisdom of his counsel and the liberality of his attitude towards all the thirty four institutions which are the bene ficiaries of community bounty marked him as a man of broad mind whose sympathy comprehended every element of our polyglot population.
