Sufficient unto the day is the pre
titration therefor", declared Dr. It. B.
von KleinSmid, president of the
University of Arizona in an address
on "The Rural School House as
Social Center'"-" before the members
t f the Arizona Federation of Wo
men's Clubs and their guests at the
Wohian's Club last evening.
With keen logical argument and
ready wit, Dr. von KleinSmid out
lined the methods of making the
tountry school the social center.
A brilliant and magnetic speaker,
he did not lose his audience's at
tention for one moment throughout
his scintillating lecture. He first
touched upon the influence of in
heritance and environment, compar
ing and contrasting the city and
the country boy. The problem of
livelihood faces them both, but if
the boy of the farm does make
a success it is a sacrifice a social
(lie according to Dr. von Klein
Smid. "The desertion of the - farm is
rot a matter of caprice, the drifting
of young folk to the city is out
growth of conditions. The things
that are attractive to youth are the
moving pictures, the bands, thy
theaters for not all of them get
poetry out of running brooks. The
city boy lives in ready access of
all those things that need not be
cut out of the life of the country
boy whore there is a school house.
There is mi reprenlinn in u-nrk thei-.e
days; there is not the enjoyment in
labor today there was half a cen
tury ago, the fun of life has been
separated from the real livelihood
of life" said the speaker as he cited
examples of toil where pleasure
played no part.
"Those who advance the social cott
er movement can not look to the
hurch for the social center and sn
ial development" he continued. "It
must be the school and the features
that attract in the city must lie
brought to it. There is not" any
single thing so good or so had its
moving picture shows. Parents
hould attend and "superintend arid
endeavor to give the best. Motion
pictures are here to stay and if the
district schools combine they can
secure the best at an inconsiderable
expense. Then there's music it
should be the best and if not first
hand through a victrola and I'm not
an advertising agent." he added. Amid
the laughter that frequently inter
rupted his talk.
"Another delight that city boys
crave is the dance and the instill'!
for rythmic response is just as strong
in the country boy. I had long ex
perience of Methodist training and
still have a German right foot!"
Dr. von KleinSmid in stating that
the nature of boyhood and girlhood
demanded the theater, scored the
cheap play but advocated the play I
or worth. The normally dramatic in
stinct he said could be satisfied ny
the amateur play. He recalled the
three weeks circus of circus in every
rural district after a Barnum an 1
Bailey performance.
"The school must be character
building in its nature or it is a
failure. If the schools do not re
quire a high morality, then it is
better to teach the young folk at
home for they are worthy of the
best you can secure for them. Like.
Abraham Lincoln, I believe that we
look to the country for our men
of the future."
Dr. von KleinSmid was introduced
by Mrs. Henry D. Ross, president of
the federation, who expressed the
pleasure felt by all Its members 1,1
the co-operation that existed be
tween it and the state university.
Preceding the address Miss Claire
Canom gave a recital .which de
lighted the audience. This splendid
artiste appears to improve at every
hearing. Her numbers were well
chosen- anil were played with su
perb technique and brilliancy of
tone that was remarkable.

Miller said: "No man can tell what is
' under the ground, a few inches below
the surface. If the two commissioners
I can do this they will become the richest
' men in the world." The constitution of
the state, said Mr. Miller, recognized
; that mines could not be assessed in the
same manner as other property; it
recognized classes of property in the
expression: "All taxes shall be uniform
' in the same classes." Railroads and
public utility companies, said the
speaker are not taxed on their cash
value, because they cannot be so as
sessed. They are assessed on their
earning power and that is what he pro
I posed for the assessment of mining
companies. He referred to the bill he.
had prepared previously for mine tax
ation. Mr. Mille believed that the assess
ment should not be on the gross output
or any part of it but on the net. In no
niniTT nil I n in olner WaV could there be an eualiza
RuSKr! null pi oh linn of assessment upon property of
UHUItL I UnLL I LHU I this class. He read from the tabulated
statement of Chairman Howe, recently
printed in The Republican and said
that while it might be correct, as to
the amount of the assessment of the
mining companies for the current year,
it had not told the whole truth. There

and
pecially real estate and town property
for taxable purposes. The reduction
in the volume of all kinds of property,
he said, would be relatively the same.
Reverting to his plan for the taxa
tion of mines, Mr. Miller said that he
would not include mines whose net
production was less than $25,000 an
nually; he would not assess non-productive
mines; he would not penalize
reduction plants and other works but
would so calculate the assessment upon
the net as to cover that item. In de
termining the net he would deduct all
development work and cost of produc
tion. Mining companies are not doing
such work for fun but for an earnest
purpose. Gne year such work might
greatly reduce the net but the next
year, the net would be increased by
that work having been done.
Mr. Miller said that he was speaking
as an owner of real estate. He was in
terested in no mine and had never been
interested; all his holdings were of
farm lands in the Yuma valley. He
believed that farm lands had suffered
great depreciation in this state because
of the depression of the mining indus
try and believed that with the revival
of that industry there would follow im
mediately a revival of real estate
values.
At the conclusion of his remarks.
Senator Webb asked why one could not
arrive at the full cash value of all
kinds of property. Mr. Miller replied
that no way had yet been discovered
to do that in the case of any kind of
property. To do so was futile and was
recognized to be by the National Tax
association which advocated the taxa
tion of all kinds of property upon its
earning power.
C'hairm;.n Bacon asked if mines
should not be required to pay some
thing on the gross output. Mr. Miller
replied that in justice to the mines
whose gross was procured at a loss that
should not be done.
Chairman Graham inquired if the
commission had ever agreed upon a
percentage the mines should bear of the
whole burden of taxation. The com
mission had made no such determina
tion, said Mr. Miller.
The next speaker was G. W. Dowell
representing the Copper Queen Con
solidated who said that he appeared in
the absence of the chairman of the
legislative committee of the Arizona
chapter of the American Mining con
gress. He f'.st referred to the pub
lished statement of chairman Howe of
the tax commission and read from the
bulletin of the United States Geological
Survey showing that the statement
with reference to the decreased pro
duction of 16 per cent was susceptible
of easy explanation. The same bulle
tin showed that the gold production of
Arizona had increased 14 per cent and
the production of silver, 13 per cent
The decrease in the production of cop
per had been about 20,000,000 pounds
or five per cent. The decrease of 16
per cent to which Chairman Howe had
leferred was not of poduction but of
the value of the production. But said
Mr. Dowell, It is not proposed under
the pending mine tax bill to use the
prices of copper for 1914 but the ten
year average price which is 15 1-10
cents. At that price, he said, reports
from fifteen mines which had furnished
98 per cent of the production for tax
able purposes last year showed that the
value of the product this year for pur
poses of taxation would be J60.165.606;
the cost of production would be $36,
650,000 leaving a net of $24,159,106.
Four times the net to which should be
added 12 1-12 per cent of the gross and
the value of the plants and the mines
not Included in the reports of the fif
teen companies, would bring the total
assessment value of the mines to $140,
240,445 as against something more than
$146,000,000 last year, a decrease of
4 4--0 per cent. It would not reduce
the mines' share of the total taxation, .
in the opinion of Mr. Dowell more than
2 per cent.
In concluding Mr. Dowell said that
a definite proposition for taxation,
but he said the tax commis
sion had had nothing to offer. Re
plying to a question by Chairman Howe
of the commission, as to whether in the
figures he had presented he had made
a deduction of the cost of production
in arriving at the net; that is, if he
had deducted the items permitted in
the pending bill but which were not
allowed in the former law. Mr. Dowell
replied that all those items were in
cluded in the cost which had been giv
en at $36,650,000.
Chairman Paeon desired to continue
the hearing in the afternoon or at an
J evening session. Some of the members
said that they had other engagements
so that the meeting was continued un
til today at the usual hour after the
morning recess. Another meeting will
be held this afternoon or this evening.
It Is the desire of both the house aifd
senate committees to conclude the con
sideration of this bill at the earliest
moment.
