M. -VARBER ■ T " Wed- 1 liber ' y Thursday' 1 ' Friday, W The State’s Next Great Problem is Taxation (From the Chapel Hill Weekly) It becomes more apparent every day that the next great problem for North Carolina to solve is taxation. Here is a political question, in the sense that the final decision must be made by the political leaders; but it is one in which every household in the state has ! a deep concern and which, there fore, will inspire a livelier and ! steadier attention than the peo ple bestow upon other questions that the legislature is called up- I on to settle. There is much talk of the j state’s need for a longer school ‘ term, and the better training of teachers; for the improvement of the accommodations in hospi tals, asylums, and prisons; for the continued expansion of the University and other public in stitutions ; for this, that, and an other improvement or reform. But in the background, always, looms the spectre of taxation. The voice'of the commonwealth arises in the plaintive query: “But where is the money com ing from?” That the enlightened element in North Carolina is swinging into line for larger, much larger, expenditures for public educa tion, cannot be doubted. Re cently we commented upon the statement of E. B. Jeffress, may or of Greensboro, that North Carolina must set about read justing its system of taxation in order to provide adequate funds. And now we cite three utter ances, published within the last bearing in the same direc tion. “The wonderful progress of the state is on every tongue,” says Charity and Children, “and we are thankful that old North (Carolina has forged to the front, but there is a deep feeling of un rest on account of the unequal distribution of our taxes. The wealth of the state is not bear ing its just proportion of the burden. People of slender means and especially land own ers, are lifting more than their share of the load. So far the victims of this injustice have only grumbled, but as Mr. Jeffress - says, they will not stand it forever. The * next fight, he predicts, will be over the subject of taxation and it will be a fight for fair. Our cit izens are patient and long suf fering but when their patience is exhausted they can fight like fury. We do not know what means will be employed to right this great wrong, but some means will be found. The prog ress of the state will not be halted; having put our hands to the plow we will not look back; but our system of taxation must be put on a just basis. A large element of our people are under crushing burdens, and these peo ple must find relief. Mr. Jeffress has struck the highest note that has been sounded so far and it will ring throughout North Car olina. Our taxes must bear more equally on all our people. In a speech in Salisbury on (’“The 'Dollar versus the Child,” ; A. T. Allen, state superintend | ent of public instruction, advo | cated the lengthening of the le gal term to eight months. “The demand for the eight-months term,” he said, “is not based on sentimental grounds, but up on what I believe to be sound | educational and economic rea sons.” Alluding to the men who led the campaign for education a quarter of a century ago, R. R. Clark, in the Greensboro News of last Friday, said: “These evangels of education al opportunity literally wrung from political leadership, gener ally speaking, the educational ad vances we have made. . . . The demand was created, and the people, not the political leader ship made the advance. That is in evidence today. The politi ' Icians, generally speaking, are dodging the issue of tax adjust ment that will give the children in the weaker counties the same educational advantages as the wealthy counties are able to provide for their own The inequality will be remedied^when the people are aroused to the in justice of the situation. . . “If we build safely, if our foundation is to endure, then the moral, spiritual, and intellectual progress must keep pace with the material. . . . The children in the weaker counties must have the same educational opportuni ties as the stronger'counties are able to give their children. . .. Some of the politicians are de nouncing any criticism of our educational progress and boast ing that we have made a won derful advance. We have made progress, comparatively. But these people who insist that criticism is unjust know that the conditions are unjust—that the burdens are unequal and the op portunities unequal. But they lack the courage to meet the is sue and propose a remedy. They . will come in when they are j driven.” The agitation for a readjust ment of the taxation system is ■ now in an early stage. Today ■ we are hearing the premonitory • rumblings of a storm that is ! sure to break. is that the state, 1 faced with an irresistible de ■ | mand for more liberal appropri -1 j ations, will adopt some ill-con • structed, patchwork plan for ' raising the necessary revenue. : Perhaps at this coming session, ■ since the time is short, tax measures of an emergency char : acter will be forced upon the leg islature. But before North Car l olina commits itself to a definite L taxation policy, should it not 1 have the most expert advice that ■ the nation is able to afford? Taxation is a stupendously diffi -5 cult problem. There are men ■ (we think of Mr. Seligman of ! New York, and there are others of like renown) who have de ■ voted their lives to studying it. We should like to see North Car ; olina employ some of the coun -1 try’s leading taxation experts to i come into the state, make a j thorough survey of our politico i economic structure, and present their recommendations for a well-rounded revenue - raising revenue system. Even though ' the experts had their different ; theories, and offered conflicting : solutions, this would do no harm. ; They would perform an invalu : able service in giving informa -1 tion about politics that had been ' tried out in other states and in 1 foreign lands, in placing before 1 the people concrete proposals to : discuss. There is nothing most ; people know less about, and ; nothing they need to know more about, than taxation. Such an inquiry as is here suggested, we believe, would lead the way to at least a reasonably intelligent so lution. TOO MUCH SO Dorothy—Why don’t you invite Vi vian to yoyr bridge whist parties? I understand she plays remarkably well. Estelle —Yes; she does play remark ably well. That is tfce reason we don’t want her. 666 is a Prescription for Colds, Grippe, Flu, Dengue, Bilious Fever and Malaria. It kills the germs.
