It should be so extended not only as an economy | meaaurj In the interest of the tax I payers but also as a matter of fair ness and justice. "The members of your honorable body are pledged to a program of tax I reduction which can be achieved only I by the reduction of the expenses of government. You have made an earn est effort to reduce the cost of state government and to reduce state taxes, | which represent only 10 per cent of the tax load on property.
