THE CbNCORft TIMfeS INCOMtTTAN FACTS. Number Seven. Thousands of persons derive their income almost wholly f*oin salaries or wages. Salaries paid by a SfaK* or political subdivision thereof ns a city, town, county, dr hqnilet, however, are not taxable. The reason is that tlie Federal Government does not ta x the instrumentalities of a State. In this connection many persons have the mis taken Irt'liof that all school teachers are exempt from payment of the in come tax. Teachers are not exempt because engaged in educational work, hut only when employed by a State or political subdivision thereof'. Public school teachers in the Dis trict of Columbia, Alaska, and Hawaii are not in the exempt class for the reason that they tire not State em ployee's, and their salaries, or part thereof, are paid by the Federal Gov ernment. Tlie salaries of all Federal ofliflicers and employees arc subject to tha tax except that a Federal in come ttix can not be levied on the salary of the President of the l nited States nor a Federal judge which would diminish tlie salary that was in effect tit Hu 1 time they took office. The special exemption of s•'>..»oo for persons in active military or naval service allowed under the revenue act of 191 Nno longer is allowed. Sol diers and sailors in making returns ol income for tin* year 1922 are allowed only the personal exemptions and credits' granted a civilian. A Georgia Verdict. Charlotte < tbserver. That North Carolina le.sds the south ern states in normal and healthy growth, and is rapidly forging ahead of many other states in the Fnion in return to prosperity, is the assertion of C. E. Shepard, of Atlanta, district sales manader of tin* Gulf Relining Company, hero to attend a two-day meeting of tin* company's agents end ing yesterday. About 40 representa tives* of the Gulf Retiming Company were'here as guests of Kelly A. Grice, manager of the Charlotte branch. A R. Wilbv, assistant distrist sales man ager at Atlanta headquarters, and C. E. Wate.r.s of the same office, also were here. North Carolina's prosperity, accord ing to Mr. Shepard, is due to the di versity of her industries. “South Carolina Georgia and Flori tural interests similar in many respects to North Carolina’s, are not so fortu nate'. as the Old North State. Georgia and South Carolina have been hit by the boll weevil with considerable force during the past few years and have not fully recovered, hut they are on the. way to recovery. If they had the diversified industries that North Caro lina has tliev rould not have been so hard hit. ( * “Everywhere I go I hear about the prosperity of North Carolina. Os course, 1 have been more or less fa miliar with it for many years hut its prosperity and progress has become so marked during the past few years that it lias become a matter of com ment everywhere”. i Mr. J.
