REALTY OWNERS
PROTEST TAXES
Local Dealers See Justice in Res
oIutiOn Asking Equalization,
Presents Delicate Situation.

Local real estate agents who have
long contended that land bears an un-
usually heavy burden in taxation will
be interested to learn that a definite
movement has been made Of late IA
various sections of the country to
correct this seeming irregularity. No
table in this connection were resolu-
tiOns passed by the National Pro-
gressive County Committee in New
York. whether as a matter of simple
justice or political capital the realty
men care little.
II viii be recalled that Alderman
John f. McClelland recently proposed
TO increase Atlanta realty assess
ments This aroused a storm OF pro-
test, since II was declared that the
real estate business would be sadly
crippled and industries frightened
away, and II was further cOntended
that If anything should be done it
should be in the nature Of inCrea sed
rates and not increased assessments.
Fulton County already pays about
oue-dfth of the States taxes. and a
movement has been started TO correct
this alleged abuse.
Resolutions Adopted.
The resolutions referred TO above
are as follows:
Whereas "A commission to recon-
mend new sources of tax revenue APP

city of New York, has. il appears

day in the Heating day" game with
the Yankees. After finishing their
laundering the Sox enjoyed a perfect
day off, as the murky weather in which
they landed here cleared off cool and
made 1t perfectly comfortable to play
the national indoor game all day.
The fuke defeat of Saturday left lit
tie gloom in the Callahan camp. as IL
merely was a case of taking a chance
to get the bigmoney. The Sox and their
pilot are elated over thes howing made
by Ed Walsh and by the fact they got
through the muddy task without serious
injury to any of the players.
The Big Reel pitched the best game

the worst possible conditions His arm
appeared to have remaintd most of it's
strength. He had fast ball and a
good breaking splitter during the
earlier innings. He lost control of the
damp ball, and that fact combined
with a perfectly excusable slip by Buck
