NEXED QUESTION or TAXATION

The question Of taxation has been
coming before the people and their
representatives in official circles for
years, and so far there has been no
remedy applied for the many evils
that exist in the system under which
we are working. This question of
taxation in South Carolina is one
among several that will have to be
hammered at continually without
wcarying in the good work until
finally the remedy is applied that will
give relief.
The most hopeful sign at the pres
cnt is the fact that the state itself
Is realizing that not only are the
honest taxpayers being unnccessa-
rily burdcned with heavy taxes bv
our lax methods, but the state itself
is suffering from a lack OF funds. due
to the fact that the state is getting
smaller every year from the peculiar
situation that permits Of great
shrlnkaSc In land acreage as well AS
land values. 1t is particularly strik-
ing to the thinking person that such
condition should exist at this time.
when, as matter OF fact, every foot
Of land within the borders OF South
Carolina bears some increase in value
each year. And yet the owners OF
this land not only decrease its value
when they return it for taxation. but
in many instances drop it from the
tax books entirely
We are glad that the Comptroller
General is tax King an active interest
in the matter, and Is endeavoring to
have the situation cleared up as to
the loss Of this valuable property
from the tax records Of the State.
Some very interesting statements are
contained in the report Of Comp
trollcr General Jones to the General
Assembly, from which we take the
following:
