SPECIAL MESSAGE OF GOVERNOR CRAIG THE STATE EXECUTIVE BENDB MESSAGE TO THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. IS CLEAR IN EXPRESSION Says That Policy of Blindly Appropri ating Money When There la None In Treasury and None In Bight Will Not Do. "The policy of blindly appropria ng money when there Is no money tn the treasury and none In sight will not do," declared Governor Craig In i special message to the general as »embly In advocacy of a reas tessment of taxable property in order to equalize the burden. If real and personal property were assessed at Its approximate true value, the governor lays, there would be on the tax books 12,000,000,000 instead of $750,000,000 worth of property and the rate of taxation reduced fifty per cent. In the course of the message the governor refers lo tLe reason under lying the undervaluation and conceal ment of property. Every land owner knows that some other land owner Is gofng, to Insist on a low valuation and ■or mat reason property is not given in foi* anything like its true value. It is equally well known that solvent credits In large amounts will be list ed. He asks for the removal of the causes that produced this wrong. The message Is vigorous and clear in expression, forceful In purpose, and rings with conviction. It Is as fol lows! Has Accomplished Much. To the General Assembly of the State of North Carolina: This general assembly has already accomplished a great work. The wel fare of the state has been remember ed, and the people wUI support it. No law that has been enacted will be more earnestly endorsed than the law providing for a six months' school. This act of humanity and Justice cre ates an additional demand upon the state treasury for $400,000 a year. Must Have Money. We must provide the money to meet these large but necessary appropria tions. Two Ways. Two methods for providing for In creased demands have been sug gested; One method is by a higher tax rate | on the present assessment of taxable property. The other method is by a low tax rate on a reassessment of property. Unjust and Inequitable. Everybody knows that the present assessment is an unjust and an in equitable assessment. We know that the property that has been placed up on the tax books has beeu assessed at values ridiculously low, and we know that the great bulk of the per sonal wealth of the state has not been placed upon the tax books at all, and that it pays, no tax whatever. The present assessment operates unjustly against the average citizen who pays hIH taxes; his property Is upon the tux book; his farm and his farmstock cannot be concealed. The raising of the revenue for the six months' school alone requires an additional tax of from five to twenty-five cents on the SIOO.OO wor#i of property in all tha counties, towns and special tax dis tricts of the state. We know that many do not 011 the present assess ment pax taxes in proportion to their ability, and the. proposition to place upon the people these additional bur dens according to the existing inequi table appropriation ought not to be done if we can possibly avoid It. Be sides the validity of an act of the leg islature authorizing a county to levy a tax for general expenses in excess of the constitutional limit of 66 2-3 cents on the SIOO.OO worth of proper ty might be seriously questioned. The constitution. Article 6, section 7, provides: "Every act of the general assembly levying a tax shall state the special object to which It is to be applied, and it shall be applied to no other purpose." Would be a Calamity. It might with plausibility fee argued that if the general assembly can ap propriate 48 cents or 60 cents of the general levy for general state pur poses, and authorize ihe counties to levy 4 cents or 25 cents in excess of the constitutional limit for general state purposes and autuorize the coun ties to levy any per cent that might seem proper to any general assem bly. If this general assembly should provide no other way for the mainte nance of the public schools except by the Increase of th« tax rate beyond the constitutional limit, and if the su preme court on the petition of any citizen of this state should declare that this general assembly had no con stitutional power to authorise such a tax, the state would suffer a great calamity. THs Proposition. Let us consider the proposition for the reassessment of property. There U now $760,000,004 worth of prop erty upon the tax books. If ths prop ertjr. of tbe state, m land personal, were assessed at approximately a proper value there la too doubt that we could easily have $2,000,000,000 upon tbe tax books. The rate of tax ation could be reduced fifty per cent. There la reason for the undervalu ation and concealment of property. Each land owntr knowa that other lands will be undervalued and he hnows that solvent credits In large amounts will not be listed. On the other hand, the owner of aoivent cred its knowa that real estate In and around the citiea and yielding large revenues and increasing in val ue, and that farm lands will be greatjy undervalued, that his securities can not be undervalued but if listed must go at their real value. For this reason they are concealed and escape taxa tion. When the present assessment wag made all tbe people were aware that the tax rate would be high; in some instances almost confiscatory, this was another strong temptation for concealment and undervaluation. Remove the Causes. Let us remove, as far as possible the causes that produced this wrong. Let us have a Just reassessment, pro vide machinery that will work with courage and intelligence and with the determination to place the prop erty upon th tax books; the proper ty is here; we know It. There is a vast amount of wealth in this state, amounting to many millions of dol lars, represented by stocks and bond* In foreign corporations. I am in formed th&t only one citizen of this state pays tax upon such securities Let us provide for a just assessment, and let it be understood from thlb general issembly, and from this ad ministration, that the man who will suffer will not be the man who comes forward with his property, but the man who tries to escape. Let it be known that men must bear their burdens In proportion to their abill t.v. Why Property Is Kept Off. Perhaps the most potent reason for keeping property off our tax book* is our high rate of taxation. If we reduce this rate '0 per cent in every county, towu, city und special tax for concealment and undervaluation will be removed. We can accomplish but litttle to wards placing the vast personal books until there is an assurance that the rate will be low. We can not have a low rato without a reas sessment. A Just reassessment would not burt the average man who now pays bis taxes, but it would doubtless re duce his taxes. It would increase the value of bis property, but would lower the rate of taxation. The low rate would not frighten property out of the state and into conceal ment. Mutt Have Revenue. We must raise a certain amount off revenue. The question is ahall we raise this revenue by a high tax on a low assessment of part of the property, or shall we raise it by a low from the rich and the poor alike. Get Money Justly. I would that the difficulty were not here, but to have the Bchoola and roads and health and great inatltu tions and make and admlnißtei law and be a great state, we must have money; let us get it Justly Cuatom Should Not Count. The fact that ever since the wai our assessments have been In period* of four years should not deter us The property of North Carolina ha* increased in value more in the lasl two years than It did In twenty years after the war, and no one de nies that the present assessment if flagrantly wrong. Why tolerate this wrong for two years longer? We could appeal to the people with al' confidence to sustain an act of Jus tice. We could say 10 them we did this In discharge of the trust that you reposed In us. as wisely as wt could. It) obedience to your de mandß, your multitudinous petition! from farmers' farmers, from Junloi Orders, from the people in all the walks of life, we provided for the education of your children, for the preservation of your health, for th higher education of young men anl your young women. We remem bered In mercy, which is the highest justice, the insane and the dead and the dumb and the blind an! the alck and the feeble-minded; we have built roada Into your community; we have taken North Carolina out of the list of the most ignorant states and giver her the rank In the procession of the states that she occupied in the dayt that we boast about. She Is no longei a pauper state. We nave taken hei from the affected raga of pauperlan and shown her to the world a£ ahe li —a great progressive atate of wealth and commerce and schools and publk roads. We have done this by an act of justice—by an act requiring hei people to bear the burdens of govern ment In proportion to their strength Would Bring In Property. From a low rate or taxation, prop erty will come here to engage ii enterprise and development. Thii general assembly can say that typm (ear we did not, like the servant ot old, hide the' talent in a napklr and bring it back increased -to t hard master, but that it improve* its trust for the welfare of all th people and for the progress ot th« state. I feel sure that this general assem bly will rightly solve the questlor In the exercise ot Its patriotism sac wisdom.

Reports from American consular of ficers in Genoa and Leghorn, prepared in response to inquiries from the Unit ed Sates as to the market In Italy for a remedy for malaria, show that the prevalence of malaria In that king dom has steadily declined in recent years, matnly due. It is stated, to the energetic measures of the Italian gov ernment. Quinine prepared at the State Military Pharmacy at Turin Is said by ConMl General James A. Smith to fc i on sale at all government tobacco shops at four cents a gram and is distributed gratis to poor patients. Consul Prank Deedmeyer writes that in 1911 the number of deaths In Italy caused by malaria was estimated at 3,500 in a total population of over 33.000.000. —Dally Consular and Trade Reports.
