The cry for low assessment In the
State is very natural one, but the real
wisdom Of the situation IS 20 assess pro-
perry at its true value, then call a con-
stitutional convention 10 reduce expenses.
shut off extravaganza, and lower and
equalize taxation.
We want about three fourths OF the
Offices In Virginia abolished and work
enough allotted to each officer TO earn his
salary. There are too many slnecures.-
Louisa News.
This briefly sums up the situation. 1t
Is folly 10 depreciate our property values
as means of reducing the burden OF
taxation where there are other better
means Of accomplishing the same thing
The true remedy is TO remove the cause
OF the burdensOme taxation by wedding
out some OF the useless offices and re-
ducing the cost OF government TO an
economical basis Many Of our state eX-
penditures are wise and should not be
curtailed at all. but other items could
and should be altogether abolished.
Let us take warning, however, by the
excuses OF the North Carolina Legisla
ture. and not duplicate its follies.
