Tim has concluded that now he is about
ready to make final proof on that land
and since Martin is showing such a
wandering disposition, he will need
housekceper before long and this is
the first step. The reason for the two
seated rig instead of the single seat
preferred by his partner, is that Tim is
bashful and is going to break in by
taking the fair ones in parties of two or
three at the start. Girls, this is a

depc:it elsewhere. To meet constltE-
iioral objections, 'lc bill recommend
cd provides for the segregation oI
this aibiect of tax ton to the, State,
alone, forbidding its taxation b.
counties OF cities, and then imposes
only a nominal lax on behalf OF the
State. That little actual loss will be
suffered by either the State OF the
cities where the banks are located is
shown by the fact that of the Sl72,-

ihe recent efforts Of grand jurles,
however, to discover omitted taxes,
almost caused panic among small

pared by George Bryan, attorney for
the Virginia Bankers Association,
was read Chairman Echols stated
that it was desired to have an ~.
mediate and public expression Of
opinion from the committee as to the
general purpose of the bill, and af
ter discussion, the committee voted
unanimously in it's favor.
Mr.. Sands, chairman Of the taxation
committee of the Virginia Bankers
Association. explained the matter
very frankly.
"The old Auditors" he said, looked
at the spirit rather than the letter OF
the law, and never made any effort
to collect this tax. 1t has been on
the statute books for years, and we
never had any complaints, as no at
tempt was made to enforce it.
"The new auditor, Mr.. Moore, who
is Going a very effective work for
the state, evidently believes that the
best way to get bad law repealed is
to enforce it.
