They offer a haven with no sales tax, no inheritance tax, no nuisance taxes, no corporate income tax—and unrivaled in its appeal; no personal income tax. The Promised Land of little or no taxation is the State of Nevada. All a Californian needs to do, according to the come-hither ads, is cross the border, leaving his oppressive tax burdens behind. Reports submitted at the Senate Revenue and Taxation hearings at Sacramento show that Californians with sustantial means are doing just “At one time California attracted people of large means ~who brought their wealth here with them and poured it into ous ie ne every channel of business and industry,’’ reported C. A. Rogers, Santa Barbara supervisor. “But that situation has been According to further facts presented at the hearings, not fortunes out of the state, but tax increases on California businew severance taxes on natural resources, increased gas taxes and higher bank and corporation franchise taxes—are rais‘ing the tax load on California industry for above that of other states and setting heavy handicaps on California competition Nevada's new advertising campaign refers to that state Significantly enough, it is launched at a time when Califoornia is confront-ed with hundreds of plans for new levies to meet a record budget of over half a billion dollars.

No financial provision has been made as yet, however, for laterals and ditches to take water from the project's main canals to farm lands of the valleys. In view of that fact,farmers in the southern San Joaquin Valley and in other areas are rightly concerned over proposals to seek funds from Washington for a steam plant and other power development features not contemplated in the original program. California has an adequate power supply, but it still lacks an adequate, controlled water supply. And the state needs protection for its crops far more than it needs TVA experimentation.—Contributed.
