Col. A. D. Watts makes denial of the report that a recent, order had J been made by the state board of : equalization restoring the 1920 valua- tions of real estate in counties which made reductions in 1921 was contain ed in a statement issued by Revenue Commissioner Watts, prompted by the publication of the report in at least on state newspaper. Declaring the report is .entirely without foundation, Colonel Watts ex plain the revaluation status submit ting an opinion of Attorney General Manning and having the following to say on the subject r The Law in the Case. 4"The facts are that a large num ber of county officials had written asking if the law permitted fcrther general reductions in the assessments "bf real estate to "be 'made bv the county commissioners this year. The commissioner, was oHhe opinion that the ' provisions of the machinery act of 1921 providing for general reduc tion' by the three methods herein set forth-horizontal reductions, revalua tions and reductions in individual cases, under one of which all counties ha"d acted were limited to the year 1921, and that the assessments finally made for that year would stand until the general assembly provided for an other assessment of real estate. At torney General Manning agreed with the commission in a written opinion, which opinion, together with the let- commissioner, have been clerks of the boards of county commissioners. "Of course, the provisions of the law for increasing the assessments where buildings have been erected since the assessments were made last year, and for reductions where bedd ings have been destroyed, apply to all years. Reduced Values Stand. The state board of equalization ap proved all the general 'reductions made in 1921 in all the counties of the state. The feduced' values stand Until the I eaaJMcu. rtgularrcourse will be done at its next session. "For the past 15 or 20 years there nave been two sections in the ma ! chinery act, to-wit: 77 and 78, which 1 tu l i r t.. constitute the board ux cuuiiiy missioners tne board ot equalization . . . . ... . revolt the'for tne counties and it is provided . . . . 4, ,.

These clothes will be shipped abroad at an early dale to the relief worker in the field who will distribute -them in the fall to people who would other wise have none. The winters in the countries of the Near East are more severe than ours, and it is easy to im agine how children, and even erown- ups with only a single garment would suffer from the keen winds of that coastal plateau. Last vear the dpo- ple from all sections of Randolph coun ty sent in liberal supplies of good clothing that their families had out grown and cast away. These things will save lives. Wont you get up a bundle, get your neighbor to contrib ute, and send it to your county chair man? The last two weeks of May have been set aside in Randolph for this work, and people are urged to send their bundles to The Courier of fice in Asheboro as earlv next week las possible. . Your co-operation will be greatly appreciated.. MRS. H. W. WALKER, Chairman.
