TAX Bl'EEAl* BECOMING | A SERIOUS PROBLEM » The Tarboro Southerner has the fol ic win* to say in regard to »n edi torial in the Scotland Neck Com monwealth: • "The Southerner commends to its i lain ii the most careful peni-il of the following editorial taken from the Scotland Neck Commonwealth da tod December 9th. This editorial contain* ranch that wgl appeal to the aver age taxpayer right here in our own town and county, for instead of a I lowering of taxes or even keeping them where they are there is a grow- j ing tendency among some to raise . these taxes year by year in thr ian* cf prorress."
