In dun time, these will bear irult In the shape of bills to be presented to tho Legisla ture. If there Is to bo a special ses sion, the commission will make recom mendations which will embody whnt will have been accomplished along the llfte of Investigation up to that time. However, this wilt simply he a paving of the way for tho principal recom mendations to bo mado to the next Legislature. The whole work of thu commission will be to show tho Inconsistency and Inaccuracy of tho present system of taxation as not embodjing features that )lcld Just results. Mr. Emneluth, chairman of the commission, had the following to say this morning as to the work before that body: "My personal opinion Is that tho taxation system can be greatly str-ipli-fled by eliminating to a great extent, if not altogether, tho matter of sworn statements and porsonal returns. "Tho rock on which tho Income tax tax will strand Is Its application to corporation interests. For my part. I do not believe In an Income tax. but. If 0110 Is to bo maintained, tho only logical proposition would bo a straight land value tax coupled with an Incomo tax.
