On the other hand a Koodly proportion of the bills In which rural representatives are evincing the greatest interest are yet to come before the house or senate for consideration. Three measures of great concern to labor child labor, underground miners' work-day- , nnd militia controlhave passed the house. Only one of interest to farmers the homestead tax exemption bill, and Its benefit to farmers Is questionable has won final approval In the lower branch. And the last received unanimous support practically Many agriculturists however the child labor resolution, hut labor delegates held it The agriculturists have benefited by some minor bnlms In jmssiige by the house of such bills as those providing for labeling if ingredients In commercial feedstnffs, flol and erosion control encouragement, regulation of commercial fertilizers, and irrigation stock redemptions. The senate has recognized the farmers by enactment of the bill enabling the federal government to buy lands for flood and erosion control. Of more importance was Its passage of the homestead tax exemption act. Neither has It done much thnt labor wants excepting passage of the child lalor resolution, originating In the upper house. It did pass the underground miners' bill, but with an amendment which the mine workers declare destroys the measure's effectiveness. The bill in which labor Is most vitally Interested II .

The average legislator can readily visualize the kickback from his constituency. Some of these same legislators, however, are proposing to increase the three per cent sales tax, which from during the was levied on the milling industry of this state, for during that decade, state and local taxes ou Hah mines, amounted to 3 cents for each dollar of gross value of ores produced. One proposal would increase this tax to 12 ier cent of gross sales. How many of these legislators could face their constituents at the close of the session, if they iaisise such a confiscatory tax on their neighbors as they now propose to levy upon the mines. The recommendation of the committee of nine in this regard was that the taxation of metal mines should lie changed from the present base of three times the annual net proceeds, to three limes the average or the annual net proceeds tor tin preceding three years. It seems that is nlmut all the burden that should be Imposed at this time upon this industry except is fair share of Hah's participation In the national program for social security, which is just recovering from the most critical period in 'is history. .
