can appropriate the proceeds of the
military commutation tax (or any other
than military purposes, it is mistahen.
Towusare not obliged to collect. and
taxpayers are not compelled to pay, a
commutation tax unless the money is
to be used in commutation of military
service. Therefore, if the military er-
peusosoi the state do not exceed 875;
000 the state cannot collect more than
that amount from commutation taxes
Moreover if the revenue iron) commu-
tation taxes is diverted from military
purposes, the larger towns will refuse to
pay their commutation tax. '
“The state now collects about $150.-
000 annually from commutation taxes.
1t spends a trifle less than that amount
on the National Guard. 80, if they
reduce the expenses of the National
Guard. they must reduce the commu-
tation tax. It is not constitutional to
oollectatux for a specific purpose and
then expend the money for some other
purpose.
- "The idea at omitting the annual en- .
campmeut is one that used to prevail
before the war. It has not, however,
prevailed since the war, and since mo-
ple have come to have an intelligent
idea of the value of the National Guard.
The omission of the encampment would
not help the state finances. but it would
have a very serious client on the National
Guard.“
