REVALUATION AS A MORAL
ISSUE
Fundamentally, the question of ro
.aluation of North Carol!aa proparty
in a unifoim and equal baaia of 100
per coat, la a moral iasua. The North
Carolina state conference of Social
service recognised this at tta session
ic Raleigh a year ago when it adopt
ed the following declaration:
"We congratulate the general as
sembly apon its evident purpose to
reform our present form of taxation.
Nobody like our eonfenaca. concern
ed with ties moral welfnro of oar
people can fall to note the moral me
nace to oar eltlsenship involved in tho
present system of taxation with Its
shameless inequalities and the atten
dant evasions and falsehoods, cor
rupting the civic life of our people
to a dangerous degree."
At n meeting in Goldsboro last
wash this conference, composed of
soma of tho moot earnest and public
spirited men and women from all
sections of the state, again went on
record concerning this asalter as fol
lows:
"This conference rejoices in the de
termined efforts now being mode to
destroy tho evil of inqualities of taxa
tion, and to eliminate the dodging of
taxoa, the competition among coun
ties and Individuals to reduce tax val
uations. and the falsities which our
i present system is responsible for, and
ws believe that do minor and Inci
dental mistake sf operation should
Wind our people to the fundamental
importance and lasting benefits of
the great general principle involved."
la thin sdrrlaration tho conference
reflects the opinion of tho great ma
jority of fair-minded and well in
formed people in the state. When an
honest man swears to list bis property
at its fall value, he wants other peo
ple compelled to do the some thing.—

I UK CHAUTAUQUA W
YESTERDAY—AND TODAY
Agon ago thn Roatu had Chau
taaquaa. Of coon* they wet* not call
ed "Chautauquas", bat the Idea and
spirit were the same then as they are
today. la those ancient days, prob
lem* of the empire, of science, litera
ture. art aad history ware diaenmed
in what wax known as the Forum— \
The Soman Forum This meeting,
place waa open to all. Throughout:
the land people came to hear this or.
that learned man expound his theories
or analyze and diatute some vital j
problem. Anyone could present a pro-;
blew or question providing it was of
suRelent Interest to the populace.
There were no portico, politics or fac
tion* in the Roman Forum. It was a
meeting ground—a Public Forum—
unbiased, free, a champion and friend
of all! That was the Roman “Chaa
tauqna."
Today, w« have the 1920 Public
Forum—the Community Chautauqua.
Instead of the. people journeying
many mlloa to the big tent—the big
tent journeys many miles to the peo
ple. It brings with it the great scien
tists, artists, orators and teacher* of
the times. In addition it btinga the
beat there U in musk and entertain
ment—bands, orchestras, concert
companies, opera companies, singers,
readers. Impersonators, actors, mas
ters ef magic, humorist* and last bnt
not least the ever popular Junior
Che utauqua.
Political cliques, sectarianism or
nodal factions am in no way connec
ted with the Community Chautauqua.
This inatitotioa stands unswerving,
open-minded, champions of sveno
thing that is good and clean and
worth while in entcttalnaeat and ed
ucation. It acta aa a helping hand In
the building ap of community spirit
and co-operation. It is a teacher of
the olden Rulo and of Americanism.
Tb i Community Chautauqua Is a
Public Forum—the Fonun of the
People. Under- the big brown tent
yon can hoar and understand the
world's problems—your problems.
Woven with the more serious side of
life is beautiful, inspiring mask and
wboUscmo entertainment. This is the
Chautauqua ef today
