"But the power io tax incomes should not be granted in such terms as to subject 10 federal taxation the incomes de-ri i from bon is issued by the state itself, or those issued by municipal governments organized under tho state's authority. To place the borrowing capacity of the state and of its governmental agencies at the mercy of the federal taxing power would be an impairment of the essential rights of the state which, as its officers, we are bound to defend." After reviewing tho legal aspects of this question the governor declares: "Wo cannot suppose that Congress i i 1 not sfek io tax incomes derived from securities issued by the and its municipalities.

It has repeatedly endeavored to lay such taxes and its efforts have been defeated only by implied constitutional restriction, which this amendment threatens to destroy. While we may desire that the federal government may be equipped with all necessary national powers in order that it may its national function, we must In; equally solicitous lo secure the essential bases of state government. therefore, deem it my duty, as governor of the state, to recommend thin this proposed amendment should not be ratified."
