CITIZENS RECOMMEND CHANGE IN TAXATION PLAN USED BY OHIO COLUMBUS, O., March 9. The citizens' taxation committee named by Governor Harry .1 Darts Tuesday formally presented Its unanimous report on taxation problems. The presentation was made in the presence of ihe Joint taxation committee of the

Ohio legislature, which was called to the executive chambers. As forecast, the report is a recommendation for a new constitutional amendment abolishing: the uniform rule of taxation that has existed for TO ypars. This is prefaced by a demand that, if the unifoi-m rule be retained, it tli 11 be enforced rigidly. This, the committee says, may be done only rhrough appointive state officials, and firtually is impossible under elective offlepr. This feature of the report is a tacit erdoraement of the Warnes set, that brought temporary political disaster to former Governor James M. Cox In 1914 and Is considered to be a belated vindication of his position. But as a departure from the forecasts in the schedule there Is leeway, without a vote of the public, to go beyond the 12 mill rate for rural taxing districts and the 15 mills fur urban dis

tricts. Overcome Limitations. Past bond issues are to be cared for outside these limitations. Although the "irreconcilables" opponents of change made no statement, immediate dissatisfaction with the terms tended to strengthen this faction. There is no final limitation of taxes to 15 mills, and this is to be seized upon to cause embarrassment to the new program. This feature, however, was defended in a statement made by the committee, in which it says : "1. It will make It possible to do away with the greater part of the state tax levy, thereby avoiding a source of

levies have been . completed, aa follows: - "1. Sinking fund levies for 1913 flood emergency bonds and other similar bonds. "2 Local road levies for state highway improvement contribution, so far as anticipated by outstanding bonds. "3 Voted levies; above referred to, including especially the soldiers' bonus levies, which will be necessary if that constitutional amendment is adopted."

In discussing its problems the committee says that the "vice of the present situation" is not entirely material, but that the "essence of the problem is found in a. state of mind revealing

an unwillingness to have the laws enforced." The "tax-dodger," the committee say, 'has no anxiety about moral issues." The committer- dismisses the uniform rule briefly in the statement: "The results have not been satisfactory: "Experience has demonstrated that the voters will not insist upon the enforcement of the uniform rule."

for a taxing system that can be enforced. "The schedule of the proposed amendment, which necessarily is phrased in technical language, has a double purpose: "First, to afford a period of adjustment to the new basis and permit new
