BANK FOR FARM COOPERATIES HAS BIG JOB “One hundred. and fifty million dollars worth of financing has flowed through the portals of the Berkeley Bank for Cooperatives to farmers’ cooperative marketing and purchasing associations in (California, Utah, and Nevada during the past ten years. Coming on our tenth anniversary, we are proud of this substantial showing,’ E. A. Stokdyi, cooperative bank president, stated. “We are especially proud of the fact that we have been able to aid materially in the development and expansion of cooperative endeavor in these four states of our Farm Credit District.” The Berkeley Bank for Cooperatives was organized and chartered on August 29, 1933 unders the Farm Credit Act of that year, and its first loan to a cooperative organization was made on September 23 of the game year. The bank was designed to provide all types of credit needed by incorporated cooperative asso¢iations owned and controlled by farmer-members, and to furnish operating, commodity, or facility Toans to them. Since the bank’s establishment, it has furnished financial aid to 226 cooperative associations, fifty two of which were formed since the bank was organized. : On August 31, 1943, repayments of these loans reached $141,476,793 and the oustanding balance on that date was $8,468,089. . . prove, says Vandeberg, that the itragedy of absenteeism can have a ‘happy ending. STATE'S TOTAL TAXBILLIS TWO BILLIONS SAIN FRAINCISCO, Sept. 20.— California’s annual tax bill—Federal.,. state, and local—has for the first time in history passed the two billion dollar mark, according to a istudy of tax collections, just completled by the. Tax Department of the (California State Chamber of Com‘ merce. Total collections for the fiscal year 1942-43 amounted to $2,226,925,000. Of this total, Federal collections were $1,411,327,000. State taxes amounted to $490,598,000; and local property taxes, collected by counties, cities, school districts and special districts, weré $32'5,000,000. The study reveals an increase in total tax collections of $720,000,000 over the preceding year, the greater part of which represented increased taxes paid to the Federal government. Of this increase, Federal taxes accounted for $655,000,000, and state tax collections accounted for an increase of $62,827,000. Tax collections by local units of govefnment showed only a slight gain. The largest source of revenue ‘to the Federal government from California came from corporation income and excess profit taxes, which last year amounted to $535,665,000; or $329,000,000 more than the 1941-42 total. The personal income tax which during the last fiscal year yielded $480,381,000, showed an increase of $222,178,000 over the . preceding year. , “While this tax burden is unprecedented in history,’’ Sidney M. Ehrman, of San Francisco, chairman of the Chamber ’s Statewide Tax Com’ ‘RIGHT Now is a good time to check up on the gas heating devices in your home. If repair is needed— do it at once.

The largest source of revenue ‘to the Federal government from California came from corporation income and excess profit taxes, which last year amounted to $535,665,000; or $329,000,000 more than the 1941-42 total. The personal income tax which during the last fiscal year yielded $480,381,000, showed an increase of $222,178,000 over the . preceding year. , “While this tax burden is unprecedented in history,’’ Sidney M.
