Several Cities Win Take Advantage
OF The New State Exemp-
tion Law.

business men probably will ask coun-
ell, at it's February meeting, to enact
an ordinance conforming to the pro-
visions of Act IA, Chapter 146, Acts of
1910, relative to exempting new en-
terprises from taxation.
The act not only exempts such man
ufactories as may be located In the
state from taxation for period OF ten
wears. but confers upon each and every
municipality of the state the same
mower. AS the question of taxation
always enters largely into the con
sideration of locating new industry
it is believed nearly every municipali

avail itself of this power.
While the plant and all equipment
is exempt from taxation by the state
taxes must be paid on the land, pu
since the land is but small item ina
will not be hindrance.
Several other cities, notably Natcne
and Hattiesburg, have been discussinl
this matter. Meridian will also fal
into line, as will vicksburg, Greer
