Many of the ministers of the Ameri-

the party going by special sleeper
Monday night.
DR.. Bascom Anthony of First Meth
odist church breaches today the final
sermon of the conference year. That
he will be returned to this church
for another year is the unanimous
wish of the people of Americus.
And the same good wishes attend
the appointment Of Rev. Hamp Stew

bored here faithfully and is very gem
orally beloved in Americus.
DR.. Anthony was visitor in Savaa-
nah, his former home, the past week,
and is thus quoted by the Press:
No Change Is Anticipated.
Mr. Anthony does not believe the
question Of doing away with the time
limit on the services of Methodist
minister at any one point will be
brought up at the coming session of
the South Georgia Conference at
Waynesboro.
And if it is brought up he be-
lieves it will be defeated, as was the
case during the session of the Nor.h
Georgia Conference, just closed
He doesn't think there will be any
unusual developments at the confer
ence, He expects to see very help
full and profitable gathering there on
this occasion. One of the principal
things will be the election of dele
gates to the general conference, which
is to elect several bishops next May.

SOME TAX LAW SUGGESTIONS

EDITOR STAR: l have read your
comments on the proposed changes in
the mercantile license law, together
with the amendments as proposed, as
published in the legislative proceed
ings in your valued paper. But think
you do not go far enough. While the
laws of the United States are intend
ed to prevent combinations in restraint
of trade, and almost daily the cables
report heavy fines for violations, is it
wise or proper for our Legislature to
lend its aid by enacting laws tending
to restrict free competition in the
selling Of goods? The amendments as
proposed tend solely to this end, are
certainly discriminating, and I be-
lieve unconstitutional, and if passed
would not produce any revenue. They
are full of imperfections, unjust and
unwise. Under the proposed amend
ment a dealer with a $4,000 stock
would be taxed $3.50 for license while

one with $4,000 stock would pay only

to $4,000 is not broker. Suppose the
broker does not carry a stock, do the
people of Hawaii lose by his charging
only five per cent commission? He
sells to dealers only (the small ones
generality They might import and
save it. Does not the merchant carry
his stock by choice, and make his 10
to 10 per cent? Has the Legislature
the right to legislate some out of bust
ness to throw the trade in the hands
of few? The proposed law expressly
exempts the dealer in Interstate COM
merce. Why? Because the legisla-
ton is discriminating, and the United
States laws will not stand for it. Let
all be taxed, or none. A law treating
all alike, a tax of like amount
