Say Friendly Relations Are Impossible Since Byrnes Is In. "For sixteen years this association maintained friendly relations with the State Board of Tax Commissioners In spile of many differences of opinion," continues the circular, "The personnel of the hoard has changed entirely witlilu the pust three years, and since Thomas F. Byrnes became chairman it has been impossible for us to eoutiune our previous friendly relations." The circular then divides Its complaints against the Tax Board Into the following sub-heads: First, the proposed revision of the tax law under the direction of the State Board of Tax Commissioners, which is declared to be "a highly dangerous proposition, because the appropriated for tiie puymc-ut of counsel and experts will be entirely under the control of tee State Board, which has shown a reactionary attitude," and, second, the increases In the appropriations asked for by the board, showing tin increase from $118,0311 for 11M1 ntui for to for 1013, without any changes In the law, calling fur increased work by the board. Then follow detailed objections to the manner in which public tax money, which ougltt to be held sacred, has been appropriated for the Board of Tax Commissioners. The circular points out that the "assistant secretary and law clerk" of the board, Charles J.

Tobin, whose salary lias been raised from $.1,000 to $4,000 since 1 11)11, also has a Job as a clerk to aid Senator Krawley, who Is chairman of the rWnate Finance committee, which has charge of appropriation matters. "It seems incongruous, to say the least," continues the circular, "for an employe of a State department to be employed also by a committee, of the Legislature In charge of appropriations, but this dual employment may perhaps explain the amount and nature of suiue uf the increases." In respect to the appropriation of $6,500 tor the traveling expenses of the State Tax Commissioners the circular points out that It Is against the policy of the State to appropriate a llxed amount for Bueh expenses lnstend of paying bills for actual expenditures by officials while in performance of their duties. The chairman of the commission. Mr. Byrnes, Is to gl $2,500, while his fellow commissioners will get the flat sum of each per year for travel expenses.

The entire appropriation for 1911 before the present members of the board took office was but $2,500, as compared w-ltn Jfi.5110 lor the present year. The appropriation bill now before the Governor, which the Tax Reform Association wants vetoed, also provides for Increase of the number of "special agents" from fourteen to twenty-four, at an increased expense of $24,400. A. third item in the appropriation bill provides $2,000 for copies of the proceedings of the State Conference on Taxation to be held at Buffalo In connection with the National Tax Conference.
