TAX COMMISSION SPLIT IN OPINION Miller Dissents From Report oiI Baldwin and Stadtmuller Hartford, Jan. 23.—The commis- sion on taxation appointed in 1915 ; and made up of Simeon E. Baldwin, Frank Stadtmuller and. Guy Miller made its report in pamphlet form to the general assembly today. Its gen- cral gonclusions are that it is safe, to say that ‘‘our system of tax laws is in principle well adapted to the nature of our people and their oc- cupations in life. They need some amendments to make them work more smoothly and more efficiently.” The commission recommends. for enactment among other bills which it has prepared the following: Increas- ing the powers of the state board of equalization; requiring town ass rs to revalue all real estate every five vears; relinquishing to the towns the interest of the states in fees for li- quor licenses; establishing an annual state tax on towns; exempting public securities from taxation; exempting testamentary gifts to charitable cor- porations from succession taxes, in- creasing the exemptions from taxa- tions on certain articles of household or personal use; allowing taxation of securities registered with the state treasure based on their real face value, limiting the time for putting claims for back taxes against es- tates of deceased persons; for notice to town assessors of the registration of motor vehicles; imposing a uni- form franchise tax on all insurance ' companies of the state and concern- ing taxation of bank deposits. Miller Dissents. From the general conclusions of the commission Mr. Miller dissents, say- ing: “I am of the opinion that laws incapable of anything like fair admin- istration should be either changed so that they may be fairly administered or should be abalished altogether. I believe in the substitution of an in- come tax for the present property tax on intangible personal property and such items of tangible personal prop- erty as cannot be reached by the pres- ent property tax.” The commissian believes that the 1917, STRAIN TUU GREAT | Hundreds of New Britain Readers Find Daily Toil a Burden.

COURT’S SENTENCE Indignant at Workhouse Term for | » Birth Control Advocate New York, Jan. 23.—Women inter- ested in the spreading of birth control propaganda expressed surprise and indignation yesterday at the sen- tencing of Mrs. Ethel Byrne, sister of ! Mrs. Margaret Sanger, to thirty days in the workhouse for breaking the law. Mrs, Byrne has been assisting her sister in the birth control clinic at No. 46 Amboy street, Brooklyn. Sentence was imposed by Justices Garvin, O’Keefe and. Herrman. One hundred women, many of them of social and political prominence, have banded together to help in the birth control movement. They have organized a committee, vith Mrs. Amos R. E, Pinchot, of No. 9 East Eighty-first street, as chairman recently they held a meeting to de- cide what to do in the event of the arrest or sentencing of Mrs. Byrne. The committee, which keeps its meet- ings secret, has been organized to support this movement as far as it can. It is composed of women of wealth, and there is every reason to believe that when money is needed to further the cause or assist its sup- porters funds will te forthcoming. Characterizing the action of the Brooklyn Court of Special Sessions as an outrage, Dr. Mary Halton said vesterday: ‘“We are the only country in the civilized world that has a law THEY WERE RUNDOWN How often we hear it said of a man or woman that “they were rundown in health” which accountsfortheirpresent sickness.

No woman wants a child a year, and ' if - men were not hypocrites they would acknowledge that they do not, either. It's ruinous to the wife to, give birth to a child every twelve- | month, ruinous both mentally and all women of means know how to avoid child bearing. It's the tion, and she is deprived of it by law. That such a law exists is a terrible indictment of our country, and that the justices should have sent Mrs. Byrne to the workhouse for thirty days is an outrage. . Women Are Helpless, “But what can we do? Even when ! We organize to forward the birth con- trol movement we are practically helpless bocause of this law making it a criminal offense to give out the nec- essary information to wives. The only thing we can do, besides helping have helped by supporting the clinics and giving other aid, is ta work along faithfully until we women get the franchise and can have the law re- “If Mrs. Byrne is fined we women who stand for birth controi would gladly help pay it. And we must wipe out this hypocrisy which tries to malke us think it is shameful to tell the' truth. Of course, Mrs. Byrne's case | will be appealed. And we women Will stand by her.” Mrs. William L. Colt said that as a’ member of the Committee of One Hundred she felt the greatest indigna- tion at the sentence imposed upon “She and her sister are an excellent work, but, of course, it is considered illegal under the law. The only way we can help such women and promote the birth movement is by constantly breakingz this law until people see and realize how foolish it is. “I consider Mrs. Sanger a pioneer and her sister one also. I have lived on the east side and I know what it means te a poverty stricken family to ha\e many children. They can't af- rd it and they shculd be taught how to regulate the size of their families. Personally T shall be glad to help Mrs. Byrne in any way that a woman can. | Women interested in the birth con trol movement are organizing in vari- ous groups, each of which is taking hold of one feature of the work. There will be a big rally in Carnegie hall on January 29 under the auspices of birth control leaders, with prominent wom- en as speakers.
