Max Gardner. Coupled with that reduction in the property tax bill for the state is the significant fact that the cost of the ; operation of the departments and in , stitutions of North Carolina has been reduced from $8,658,000 in 192 V to $6,- 176,000 for the current year, or a net reduction of 29 per cent in the cost of operating |he government, it was s shown in the governor's statement. Getting down to a specific analysis of the governmental costs, it was shown that by reason of the action taken in the last General Assembly | the total tax bill in Mecklenburg County, for instance, was reduced the grand sunt of $750,000, and Gaston county was able to slash off $449,000 from its total property tax bill. Ihe total reduction throughout all i North Carolina of 20.4 per cent of the property tax constitute sthe larg est tax reduction ever achieved in the history of the state? it was pointed out. Figures just completed by the Tax Commission show a total property tax levy of $59,911,000 in 1930 and a drop to $47,684,000 in 1931—the first year to have the benefit of the 1931 school and road legislation, and of the legis lative and administrative ecoitomies put into effect in local government. The analysis shows the remarkable reduction in county levies of $10,055,- 000, in district levies of $1,704,000, and in municipal levies of $469,000. This means, the surwey points out, that tlie businesses and industries of North j I arolina were called upon to pay only four-fifths as much property taxes in J 1931 as they were called upon to pay in 1930. In other words, these governmental left just exactly $12,250,006 more money iu the pockets of the tax payers of North Carolina that might easily have been taken under the nor mal and regular appropriations for the support of the government. This is generally regarded iu ad ministration circles as the biggest re duction ever brought about in a single year by any state in the union. More important than any of these reductions, in the minds of some, is! the fact that the administration was' able to shave off the impressive sum! of $2,7*0,000 front the salaries of state officials in the ,pasl' year. That hand some sawing in salaries alone is regard ed as a very Haltering contrast to the increase in salaries shown iu the fed eral government. ' nership of Bamhill Brothers, com posed of J. T.
