ESTABLISHED 1868. Manning Charges Thev Are Worst Tax Croakers In North Carolina. FIRST VICTORY IN FOUR APPEALS Short Line Routes at Same Time Declare Need Of Higher Rates. RALEIGH, June 10 North Car olina counties must wait on the collection of $775,578 in disputed taxes until final disposition nf the railroads tax suit before the United States supreme court, according to the deceston tonight of Federal Judges Waddell . and Conner awarding the five roads suing the state their first victory since they instituted proceedings. Whether an order shall be Issued staying the. collection of $209,081 In franchise taxes, due the state, until the supreme court derision will be left with Judge James E. Boyd; of Greensboro. Judges Wad dell and Conner, having disagreed on this point. Judge Boyd argued with the views of his colleagues, will prepare an opinion on this Issue within the next week and Judges Waddell and Conner are expected to abide b.v his decision. In today's hearing Judge Waddell favored an order staying the col lection of franchise taxes, while Judge Conner thought the state should collect taxes due. Order Is First Victory In Four Appeals. In four nppealsj to the federal court, three to the district courts and one to the supreme court. The order staying the collection of threequarters of a million dol lars in taxes by the railroads. Is their first victory since instituting the proceedings against the state last October. With four trunk line railroads before a federal court w-lth the three Judges sitting and three short-line railroads before the cor poration commission, common car riers were "at law" In wholesale lots. The short-line railroads were pleading their poverty and conse quent inability to make ends meet as rates which the North Carolina Traffic association, complainants in the hearing before the corpora tion commission. Insists would be just and In accorda-nce with trunkijVas learned last night. Mr. line tariff levels. Circuit Judge Waddell and District Judges Boyd and Conner twice previously have refused to grant the same restrain-; ing order for which the third ap peal was made. The United-States supreme court once has refused to grant this order. But the roads believe In trying again. 1 Manning nays Roads Are ' Biggest Tax Croakers. State s . Attorney-General Man ning charged the roads with being the biggest tax croakers in North Carolina, In starring as the state's spokesman during the hearing In federal court. Judge Manning let It be known that he frankly is tired ot the road dilly-dallying around and trying to escape paying taxes when they are reaping ueh rich rewards from North Carolina com merce. If individual citizens and tax payers had the same attitude to wards their obligations to the gov ernment as the railroads the state would be forced to close down its asylums, hospitals, schools and In stitutions of higher learning. Judge Manning charged. ----- - - - He answered the railroads' kick of having to pay more tax In 1921 than in 1920 by declaring that all other property owners in the state had to do likewise, and that both the roads and the people would have to continue to pay more as long as more and better schools, highways and charitable institu tions were demanded of the state. He ridiculed this complaint fur ther with the declaration that the railroads paid $300,000 Jess It) 1920 than they did in 1919, adding that it was time they were paying more. Judge Manning called a spade a snnde end snared no words in tell ing the federal Judges Just what he thought of all the legal techni calities the railroads are resorting to in an effort to hold up the pay ment of their obligations to the state. The supreme court has announc ed It will make final disposition of the tax suit next November and the carriers want to hold up pay ment ot .'the taxes 'involved in the suit until an opinion from that tribunal. The trunk line roads are the Southern, Norfolk Southern, Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard, with the Atlantic and Yadkin also a party to the suit. Short IiiH- Hum Inning As Woll .Saturday. This hearing took place In the federal building and down at thf C?tPDnTn i of ' FWtt.v lie street other end of ''V' stlL ; short line roads were pledging their ins inahititv to do bus nqss at lower inanniiy iu u "" I rates. The principal witness in th,s hearing today was A. Vt. McLean, of Lumberton, president of the Virginia Carolina Southern, who spent an hour or so reciting the history of this road how it had been organized not as a money maker but as a "city builder' for the town of Lumberton. He, his brother-in-law. and the nines r,f Robeson financed its con struction In 1906 and It has never paid. It was built because Lum berton was being killed by high rates owing to the Seaboard's monopoly In that territory, he said. After vears of struggle, a deal was made 'whereby the Atlantic Coast i.ine should assume an equitable Interest, In the road. It purchased all the stock nut .li snares. Al beit, the Coast Line does not con trol the road -and a directorate composed of Lumberton business men with Mr. WcLean as oresi- dent. decides all its policies. The trafflo association claimed the Virginia Carolina Southern Is a tributary of the Coast Line and consequently, should have the same freight rates as the trunk lines. , .

Lord Treacher, of Atlanta, aie completed, an effort will bs made to raise the balance of Ashe ville's aunta for the new hotel. It.

It was learned last night that final details for the purchase of the property on Haywood street from Dr. H. H. Briggs, have not been completed and an option- is still In effect. It is believed that the formal purchase ot the prop erty will be made when the $350. 000 quota, Ashevilles part In the project, has been subscribed. It was stated several days ago that a sufficient part of this quota has been raised to assure success of the new hotel, provided business men of the city, who have not yet stated definitely how much of the stock they will subscribe for, will support the new project with the same liberality they have taken stock in other projects of vital importance to the future growth of Asheville. The Foundation company, It Is stated, will have their quota In bonds, which will be in the nature of a mortgage on the building. The property under option and to be purchased for the new hotel has a frontage of 100 feet on Hay wood street. Whether the hotel will be fur nished and leased or furnished by the lessee, Mr. Dinkle, of Atlan ta, has not been announced, but It is understood that it will be fur nished and ready for occupancy when taken over by the lessee. While It has not been stated when work on the hotel, If all de tails are successfully completed, will start, it is understood that it the $350,000 In stock is sold In Ashevlll, the foundation may be started within the next four months and about 10 months will be required to complete the build ing.
