The revaluation act was under way when Bickett reduced the state tax from 27 cents to ". His administration abolished fur tht time being the stati tax. None whatever was leiied last year. Governor Morrison means to keep it abolished and Stnte Tax Commissioner A. J. Maxwell was working even ahead of him. But, at that, nobody has risen to explain how property is to be reduced 50 per cent in the eouiities ami the taxe raised. The horizontal cut in many eouiities will tend strongly toward equalization and undoubtedly will reduce the jiroper ty to a level sulistantiallv nearer truth than the high valuations now have it. That is ns much a juirpose of revaluation as raising the rates to the jiroper height.

GASTON MINISTERS HOLD INTERESTING MEETING. Hearty Vote o'f Thanks Extended Gas tonia Retail Merchants Ladies Of First Baptist Church Serve Excellent Dinner. More than thirty Gaston county minis tesr enjoyed a bountiful repast served by the ladies of the First Bajitist chuTch in the Long Avenue room of the Armory, Moonday at noon. The ministers were j'tbe guests of the Gastonia Retail Mer chants Committee of the chamber of Commerce on the occasion of the second quarterly meeting of the Gaston County Ministerial Alliance. Mr. F. M. Allen, secretary of the Gas tonia chandler of commerce represented the merchants at dinner and told the ministers what a real pleasure it wan to welcome them in their behalf. While delivering- the welcome ,Mr. Allen took oc casion to say that the jirojier function ing of the Jiresent day chamber of com meree was to make a city, town, village and county fit to live in and the object of the organization to cause people to think and think in, the right direction. By a rising vote of thanks the ministers expressed their sincere and heartfelt thanks for the courtesy and generosity of the merchants in providing the din ner and their recognition of the honor of 1 being the guests of such a fine body of I 'Christian men. Rev. H. H. Jordan, presiding elder of the Methodist district, delivered a force ful and splendid address on, "Why.

For that reason he in in hearty sympathy with the recent legislu five act which seeks to get nctniil valua tions. Xor docs he interpret either the special session of IPL'0 or the late reguar legislature to have "repudiated the priu eiple underlying revaluation -the prin ciple of making the tax books speak the truth.

There is no way of suppnssing high and low disturbances. Atmospheric pressure is boss of iis own whims. The groundhog is not nearly so accurate a prophet as a little vane at the od?e of tho sea.

Special eort is being made to export cotton, through the aid of the war finance corporation. A million bales sent across the wafer might revive the price a bit, although with Unit there is nn prospect of the nice reaching cost of production. While exportation is desir able, every little will help and a begin ning may open the nay fur better things, a danger to be guarded right now is that with even a slight rise in price and better prospect of a market at the open ing of the planting seosrm, the determi nation to cut acreage at least oO per cent may vanish. The only sure prospect for any sort of a worth while price for cotton is an unusually small crop this year. Every farmer knnvw that experi ence has demonstrated that the smaller the crop the higher the price. Mr. Wilson Mi-Lain, a Robeson county business man and farmer, who has lioen and is yet connected with Ihe war finance corporation, stated on a visit home a few days ago, that the prospect for cot ton is very gloomy; that while cotton if needed abroad, depreciated currency and lack of security renders the people un able to buy. With the big surplus on hand, if any considerable cotton crop is raised this year Mr. McLain fears and many others feel the same way that cotton may go to five cents.
