No nation can now live to it self alone, says Gov. T. W. Bick ett. The discoveries of science and the advance of civilization have made nations as well as in dividuals their brothers' keepers. The nation that dreams that it can live in security and peace while half the world welters in blood or anarchy is living in a fool's paradise. The League of Nations is a frank recognition of this funda mental truth. Moreover the league guarantees to this nation precisely what we fought for a world forever free from the men ace of militarism. Repudiate the league, and our dead will have died in vain. The league ad vances rather than abandons the Monroe Doctrine Thirteen oth er nations come into a world court and solemnly swear to maintain this doctrine. The hearts of the people are in favor of the league. In North Carolina all classes of people re gardless of politics, religion. race, color, or previous condition j that of servitude, believe that the league is the surest guarantee to the future peace of the ninety and nine.

Within the past few days slightly over one billion dollars has been paid into the offices of the various collectors of internal revenue throughout the country in income and profits taxes, rep resenting the first 25 per cent in stallment of these taxes. As gi gantic as this sum seems, it will bring into the treasury only about $200,000,000 net at this time, since $800,000,000 is required to pay certificates of indebtedness maturing in March. The two collection districts in North Car olina turned in something over twelve million dollars, indicating that this State will pay this year nearly fifty millions in Federal income and profit taxes. property mu3t be valued for taxes at its true value. It places the responsi bility upon our commission to see that this is done and it must and shall be done. It is the purpose of the General Assembly upon a proper valuation be ing made, to lower the tax rate, and it will meet after the property ha3 been assessed for that nurnose. sn that the burden upon the taxpay ers will not necessarily be in creased. This is assured to us as a Commission and we in turn desire to assure the taxpayers of the State that a full valuation of their property ' will not mean greatly increased amount of taxes. The Act under which this assessment is made provides that the State, no County or municipality shall collect in excess of ten per cent, more taxes after this revaluation is male than is being collected in 1919 under the present valuation. I call upon the people of the State to assist the Commission in the selection of a splendid business man in each County as County Tax Assessor. He should be a man of fine judgment, good business ability, having a good knowl edge of values both in town and coun try, and one in whom the public l ai confidence as to his honesty and integ rity. It is not a political office but one by disbursing o facials of a "true copy" of discharge certificates. Heretofore the original certificates were required but it was found many soldiers refused to part with the papers, preferring ta lose the bonus rather than risk the loss of official evidence of their honorable release from the army. All copies submitted under the amend ment authorized must be certified by the army recruiting officer nearest the soldiers' residence. Gen.
