SEEKS
FEE ABOLITION
To AID REVENUE
Coffee County Legislator Would
Put All Public Officials on
Straight Salary Basis,

Representative Charles E. Stewart.
Of Coffee County, new member of
the House, will undertake to abolish
the fee system of compromising coun-
ty officials in Georgia. and substitute
in its stead a fiat salary system.
He believes that the State can ma
terially increase its revenues by do
ing this and he feels that the pro-
posal should prove popular with the
Legislature, for the reason that this
year tax reform appears to be very
much In order.
Just Passing of Hat.
Discussing the bill he will intro
duce along the line stated. Mr. Stew
art says:
THE Comptroller General has said
that the present system is nothing
more nor less than passing around
the hat for a contribution from the
taxpayers
"The chairman of the Railroad
Commission says: 1t is based upon
voluntary returns and hence its in
equalities
There is no doubt we need our
system of gathering taxes revised, bu-
as see it. this is not the only thing
we need along that line / think what
we need now Is not only something
to increase our revenue. but some
thing to protect and conserve our
present revenue of the State and
counties.
Check Present Waste.
Instead Of legislating to inCreas Sc
our revenues, we should first legis-
late to check the present waste OF our
revenues, and I feel sure that we VIII
not only have sufficient funds to meet
all demands, but will have enough left
to double our old soldiers pay, in
crease our public school funds and
present based upon our present tax
values.
Legislation Of this sort would not
only conserve our revenue which is
now being wasted at the rate Of a
million and a half dollars each year
but in turning this great waste In the
direction of our old soldiers and
teachers we would protect the honor
and dignity Of our great State.
THE Legislature and the people oG
Georgia can abolish the abomiual fee
system. the useless County Treasurer
and Tax Receivers offices, and save
one million and half euch year, BY
local taxation we can turn this waste
toward the support Of our Confederat
soldiers and public schools which viii
provide a county pension Of the same
or possibly more than the state nos
/ pays, and also a good amount in
/ crease in our local school funds"

President of WeatherhoIt Piano
Co, Arranges to Hold Open
Lists for 100 Applicants.

Because many lovers of music were
too late in applying for membership
in the Weatherholt player piano cluD
of 400 members. which was completed
Saturday night, T. z. Weatherholt,
president Of the Weatherholt Piano
Company, has arranged for a small
extension to take care of those who
were disappointed
He has arranged for another CO.
operative extension of 100 members,
and has secured advices from the fac
tory that this number of club players
can be shipped Immediately.
Mr.. Weatherholt says the campaign
just closed for the 400 club has been
one of the most successful ever con
Quoted in the country, and that 1t
demonstrates that the day of tile or
binary piano is rapidly drawing to a
close.
He says many letters and kilograms
were received after the last one Of
the 400 memberships was taken, and
for that reason he hurriedly arranged
by wire for an extension club of 100
members. The number of late appli-
cants win take up a good part of these
extension memberships. he says, and
the indications are that all of them
win be gone before the fifteen-d day
time limit has expired.
The same attractive free features
will apply to the extension offer which
made the 400 club so popular.
