It appeared to be almost , the unan imous ouinion that future issues of 'such securities must be subject to taxation. jOtherse all federal sources of revenue will dry up, bus iness and industry will suffer acute lv andm-actically the, entire" burden of taxation will be shifted to incomes from labor and to real estate Conserative estimates place the amount of outstanding tax exempt securities at $10,000,000,000. Many reliable authorities say the amount ' is louble this. Newtax exempt se curities in the sum of $1,000,000 were issued in 1921. Evil of Tax Exempt Sscuritiet The evils of tax "exempt securities issued by states, counties and muni cipalities are many. They may be ; briefly be set forth as follows: 1st:. The exemption of such prop ertv from taxation shifts the bur den of all taxation to real estate and to incomes from other sources, most ly income from labor. 2nd. The ease with which these securities can be issued and market ed is a constant ajid irrectible temp tation for extravagance upon the ppart of municipal, county and state authorities. Srd. The fact that capital can in ' vest in such securities and obtain a tax-free Income of from three to five !pr cent prevent its being Invested "in industries, commerce, public util ities and other enterprises th , in come from which is taxed. 4th.

Mr. Willet has leased some of the Han cock land near town and expects to raise lettuce, beets, celery and pos sibly other crops. He thinks the cli mate and lands around here well ad apted for these crops. -----The outlook now is that a large crop of potatoes will be planted this year. The farmers have been getting their lands ready arid just as soon as the rains stop long' enough for the ground to dry "out tKey will begin planting.

It was in session twelve weeks, and ' within that period it entered into eight' treat ies, agreed to ten resolutions and gave utterance to ten declarations of na tional policy. Some of these decla rations were issued jointly by the powers in attendance and others were issued by single pow.ers. , . , ; By the major treaties of the con ference the five greatest powers of the world agreed to radical . limita tion of naval armament and pledged themselves to a naval holiday, agreed to abolish the use of poison gas and other chemical warefare, and to ob serve, the rules of international law regarding the use of submarines Four of these great powers enter ed into a treaty guaranteeing peace in the Pacific Ocean region by an agreement to submit all differences in the future to a discussion of the representatives . of the powers con cerned before taking any. steps look ing toward actual hostilities.

The purpose is to-rehabilia- te those who have lost their sight after maturity, and make' them inde pendent, citizens. - , t ' - The class has no connection with the County Home. It is quartered there because of the excellent acco modations furnished to the - blind people. The men live and are taught in a modern, steam heated ' brick building, The county is paid for the use of the room and the board of the men by the State Department The class is domg splendid work. The men who have already enrolled are very happy and .contented and making excellent progress As most of the instruction is necessarily indi-vidualr-only a small number of men can. be accomodated, however, there is still room for a few more men. This is an exceptional opportunity for those unfortuhate residents of our state who have, lost their sight and because of their misfortune are unable to earn a livelihood. Those desiring further information -regard, ing the school or wishing to enter shoud inform any County Superinten dent of Public Welfare or Mr II. L Stanton, the State Supervisor of In dustrial Rehabilitation at Raleigh. Vocational training for the blind is but one phase of the State Rehab ilitation work. Men, women and children of employable age, handicap ped by various types of ' disability resulting from accident, disease, or of cements! nature,, are being aid ed in their struggle to become inde pendent, self supporting, and self respecting citixens, by this Department MOREHEAD CITY NEWS.
