Who Want to Pay According to' Their
Worth and Ho More—Some Changes
aa to Listing this Year.
1 BY A. J. MAXWELL.
i The press of the State has a
large share of responsibility for the
1 unanimity with which the recent
General Assembly passed one of
the most thoroughgoing revalua
tion sots ever adopted in any
State. Its continuing co-operation
is essential to the success of the
work undertaken. It is my pur
pose to ask publication of a short
■ article once a week for several
weeks on some phase of the tax
problem, in as many papers as
1 will give space to it, as well as to
ask the continued generous co
operation of the press, on its own
initiative in keeping the matter
before the public and in fairly
' presenting the plans and purposes
of this great undertaking. Prop
erly understood it should have the
co-operation of every man who
wants to pay his equal share of
taxes and no more. Its success
depends upon the co-operation of
the public, and upon its success
depends in large measure the fu
ture progress of the State.
North Carolina is more distinct
ly a State, and 4esß a combination
of one hundred counties, since the
recent session of the General As
sembly. It broke new ground in
many lines, but all of its furrows
lead to the realization of ft more
compact State. In this respect
the recent session of the General
Assembly was epochal. In public
schools, public health, public
roads and in taxation its enact
. ments show more than a tendency
in this direction—they practically
establish State systems.
The Legislaturecaine to Raleigh
with a full realization that a com
plete revision of the tax system of
the State was the fundamental
reform—that not alone the State
agencies of helpfulness in all lines
were dependent upon it, but that
the counties, cities and towns had
reached the limit of endurance
and progress under the old system
and old methods.
A complete new order of things
was detnsnded not only to relieve
the unreasonable and steadi'y in
creasing tax rates, which will reach
a point of $3.75 this year in one of
the great cities of the State, arid
to give a more equitable result as
between individual taxpayers by
a more accurate valuation of prop
erty, but it became a necessary
prerequisite to the new policy of
State-wide dealing with other pub
lic questions.- If equal school fa
cilities are to be provided by the
State in all the counties of the
State, and if other great under
takings are to be handled in the
same way, the State must of neces
sity see to it that there is a uni
form system of taxation uniformly
administered in all the counties
of the State. If money if to be
drawn by the State from one coun
ty to maintain public schools and
build roads in another, as will be
done under legislation enacted at
this Hession, the State cannot es
cape responsibility for requiring
that the property in each county
shall be valued in the same way
and up to the same standard.
The Legislature also came to
Raleigh with a full realization that
an accurate valuation of all the
property of the State was a large
undertaking, requiring not only
adequate organization and means,
but time in which to make ade
quate investigations. The will to
do equity, without tho means, is
impotent. So its first definite con
clusion was that this work should
not be hurriedly done—that it
would not undertake to have real
estate revalued at all for use in
the year 1919, but that it would
give all the time possible for the
prosecution of this work by giv
ing a whole year more of time
than has ever before been giveu in
this State to a revaluation of prop
erty. The machinery for this re
valuation was Enacted iif a sepa
rate bill. Subsequent articles
will treat of different sections and
provisions of this act.
Tax UaUng tor IttlO.
„ The usual form of Machinery
act was re-enacted with some im
portant amendments, for the regu
lar listing of personal property
this year. The Hoard* of County
Commissioners iii the several conn
t e* will appoint, at their regular
meeting in April, town«hip list
takers for taking the lists of per
sonal property in the usual way
In the mouths of May and June,
and will bring forward tho old
valuation of real property.

cable to listing this year, does

Stock in banks by the '
[ ers. The tax in each case will
hereafter be charged against the
r bank instead of the shareholder,
■ and paid by the bank. This has
• been,the rule as to all inoorporat
" ed companies other than banks.
1 Banks are permitted, as hereto
fore, to deduct State bonds issued
since 1910 from surplus, and are
now permitted to deduot Federal
and State bonds to the extent of
25 per cent of capital and surplus
if held three months prior to date
of listing—May first—and can de
duct Federal bonds of the new
issue of Victory Bonds to be issued
in April, if paid for by April
30th. ;
IJit Income for Eight Month* Initead
ol Year.
For the year 1919 taxpayers will
be required to list their income
from salaries and fees for the
eight months from May 1,1918, to
January 1, 1919, instead of for a
full year. This change is made
for the purpose of having the
State income tax year conform to
the calendar year, or to the same
period as that used by the Fed
eral Government, and after this
year income will be reported to
the State for the full calendar
year. A slight change is also
made in the exemptions, favorable
to married men. The exemption
is reduced for single men from
$1,260 per year to SI,OOO, and for
married men or widows and
widowers having minor children
the exemption is increased from
$1,260 to $1,500. For the year
1910, in which the income report
ed is for eight months, the exemp
tion is prorated accordingly and
will be $666.66 and SI,OOO, re
spectively.
Don't Forget to KJat Your Dog,
The tax-lister in every township
in the State this year will want to
know if you own a dog, or if any
member of your family owns a
dog, and if you admit the insinua
tion the tax will be SI.OO for males
and $2.00 for female dogs, which
will go to the school fund of the
county.
These are the only material
changes respecting your tax list
for this year. The next article
will deal with some features of the
revaluation act.

BV ROBERT W. IdADRY.
Chapel Hill, Match 25—A unit
of the Reserve Officers Training
orps will be established at the
University of North Carolina with
in the next two or three weeks,
according to present plans. Major
M. Crawford has received appli
cations from 110 men desiring to
take the course —l4 more than the
necessary quota of 100, and has
made formal application to the
War Department for a unit to l>e
established here. The course will
require only three hours per week,
will be voluntary, and will not
conflict with other college duties.
The State University Summer
School will opon later this year
than usual due to the fact that
Commencement has been post
poned. Commencement day will
come on June 18th and the Sum
mer School will open one week
later, on June 24tli and will con
tinue through August Bth. Direc
tor N. W. Walker is daily receiv
ing many inquiries pertaining to
courses offered, rooms, and so on,
and according to present indica
tions, he sees no reason why the
forthcoming session should not be
the most successful in the history
of the institution. Many noted
out-of-State teachers, speakers,
and lecturers have already been
secured.
The Summer Jaw School will
open on Monday, June 9th, which
Is earlier thhn usual, and close on
Friday, August 15tli, extending
through 10 weeks, ending just be
fore the bar examinations held by
tire Supreme Court in Raleigh on
August 18th. Opening as it does
on the 9th of June, before the last
quarter of the University ends on
June 18th, the summer term will
not conflict with the work of the
regular term. The main purpo-o
of the summer course is to offer a
review, as complete as the limited
time will permit, of the course re
quired by the Supreme Court for
the bar examination.
That members of University
faculty made large and notable
contributions to tho educational
arid literary life of the State and
nation during the past year In
clearly-shown in the recant report
of the chairman of the faculty. A
total of "275 lectures and addresses
were delivered before audiences
outside of Chapel Hill by Uni
versity professors. Sixty-four
literary contributions in tho form
of special articles, bulletins, leaf
lets, reports, and pamphlets ap
peared in the leading journals of
the State and nation and in Uni
versity publications. Fifty-five
distinct contributions were made
to leading technical journals.
Twenty-five addressee were made
before learned societies. Many
books and publications were edit
ed by faculty members.
With the opening game of the
baseball season for the University
only one we- k distant, the Caro
lina squad is being rapidly whip
ped into shape. The first game is
scheduled for March 28, probably
with Oak Ridge. The team as a
whole is showing up well and may
be expected to be a winner. How
ever, the bitting percentage is not
very high at prctent and the out
fielders show need of improve
ment. The showing thus far made
by battery candidates is especially
pleasing. Captain Jack Powell
and Joyner, members of last year's
pitching staff, are better than
ever, while others are fast round
ing into varsity material.

Let me live the years of my stay
npon earttf, 'way oat in the coun
try, close to nature and to na
ture's God.
I want to feel the touch of the
seasobs as they come and go, mak
ing up the years.
I want to feel the chill of Winter
in my frame, not too severe, but
enough to mako the blood tingle.
I want to feel the gentle warmth
of Spring, as with her touch of
magic, she wakens new life in
things dead.
I want to feel the heat of Sum
mer, as the golden sunshine ripens
the harvest and matures the fruit
and flowers.
Lastly, I want to catch the cool
breath of Autumn coming to fan
away the beat and lethargy of
summer.
I want to hear the cry of the
whippoorwill as the twilight set
tles o'er the hill and hollow.
I want to be near whore Bob
White is calling to his mate, when
tho fields of ripening wheat wave
gently to the passing breeze.
Then when old Jack Frost
passes by, with his toUch of white,
I want to wander down the old
rail fence and on to where the
muscadines hang in rich profu
sion; and there for a time feast
and forget.
Yes, let mo live out the years
of my stay upon the earth in the
fullness of the country, and then,
dying, let me rest in tho quiet

and mother sloep—where the sun
beams play in the summer, and
the snow drifts high in winter.
