when he learned the truth. The girl
lacked the nerve, the police say, and
Smith wrote, It is charged, that he

CONSTRUCTION OF
REVENUE LAW
COMPTROLLER DI5RELL WRITES
LETTER TO CLERKS OF VA
RIoUs COUNTY COURTS.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, June lin
view Of the fact that Comptroller
Frank Dibrell has been receiving OF
late innumerable inquiries from coun-
~ court clerks all over the state re-
garding the construction of the re-
Gently enacted state revenue laws. re-
garding the privileges charged TO
small merchants, that ofhcial has
deemed it expedient TO make an in
terpretation of the law that will leave
no room for mistakes. This letter
has been written and sent to all coun-
t. clerks in Tennessee and is as fol
lows:
Il beg to call your attention TO the
last paragraph Of section 8 on page
4 of the new revenue act, a copy OF
which was sent you a few days ago,
which reads as follows:
Provided, further. that when the
stock is less than $500 the privilege
shall be fixed at $3.50 per annum, and
that no ad valorem shall be taxed"
81 have construed this section to
mean that when a merchant has less
than $500 stock you shall collect from
him a privilege tax of $3.50 per an
mum for state purposes, all of which
shall be seat to this office.
This does not mean that the coun-
ty cannot collect an additional priv
ilege tax for under our law they are
allowed to assess a privilege tax in
this case Of as much as $3.50.
You will understand that in this
case since the ad valorem tax feature
has been eliminated, that you are au-
thorized to issue this license by the
quarter, if it is desired, just like any
other fat privilege"

NEWSPAPER WANTS
WHITE RETAINED

PARIS, June 1.-THE Tempts pub
fishes an editorial of an extraordinary
nature, 1t being plea to the United
States government to retain Henry
White as ambassador to France. The
paper semi-apologetically defends
what might be taken as an unjusti-
fable intrusion in another country's
affairs, saying that between the two
democracies openness is doubly ac'
ceptable and freedom of speech more
possible, because Mr.. Whites de.
parture is yet only an unconhrmed
report. The Tempts is of the opin'
ion that the United States is too sin
cerely democratic not to take Frances
wish into account.
