TACKLING THE TAX PROBLEM
It remains for North Carolina, where the first De
claration of Independence was issued, to set foot a
movement that may go far toward solving taxation
problems. The Tarheel state is just now busy with a sur
vey of its State, County and Municipal ofifces with a
view to the abolition of all offices not deemed necessary,
and a general slash in the salaries paid to public offic
ials. On March 31 a conference of representatives from
100 counties was held for the purpose of considering
tax relief. Among the matters coming before the con
ference was that of calling a special session of the
State Legislature for the purpose of considering tax
relief legislation. It has been found that the greatest
burden falls upon the farmers in the form of property
tax. and the question of substituting some other form
of taxation is now being debated by the leading jurists
of the State.
There is no denying that the steady encroachment
of laws, and the increase of public offices, both county
and state, have had a tremendous effect in creating tax
burdens, and at a time when the nation is deprived of
some half billion dollars in revenue for liquors that are
now dispensed by bootleggers and purchased oy v. n vc
cable citizens.
If tile Federal government will take a tip from the
Tarheels it will drop some 400,000 political employs
as represented in the band of legalized thugs making a
pretense of enforcing the law while at the same time
creating one of the most powerful political macnmcs in
the nation.
Experience is a costly teacher, and well have the
American people paid for theirs in this day when taxa
tion takes the lion’s share of a poor man’s revenue, and
what is left over after feeding the babies goes to the in
come tax collector.
