Question Of Auto ,
Assessment Reviewed
Continued from page j.

Another suggestion was that
"the automobiles be divided into
three classes; and the 1st class as
sessed at 800; the second class at
5000 and the third class at $30O.
This would make the owner OF a
5000 machine pay IS year school
tax on it while one who owned a
$4,000 car would only pay So on
his. This was not considered an
equitable division of the school tax.
The State law requires the
Board to make up the assessment
list of the crates of persons - and
of the crates of personal proper
ty." and Of the "clear rental value
Of all the assessable real estate.
The Board has been trying to
carry out the requirements OF the
law and have the amount to be
raised apportioned among the tax
payers in as equal a manner as pre-
scribed under the law. The Board
has been criticized for not assess
ing pianos and other personal
property but the Boards attorney
advised that household goods could
not be assessed for school purposes.
Yours truly,
Joel S. Gilfillan.

WE SAY DELMARVIA

For an editor born and reared
within few miles Of the Harri-
sons Nurseries to attempt to de-
scribe the visit Of last week-well
in the first place we couldn't do it
justice and again, rural New Cas-
tie would hold us accountable for
violation Of the rules of newspaper
truth if we were to tell what We
really saw.
Realizing this, our report in an
other column was written by a
stranger in that locality. He says,
after that dinner, he was too full
for utterance and words describing
the visit failed him too.
Just as the recent editors dinner
was the beginning of a closer re-
lationship and heartier co-opera-
ton between the different sections
of the tri-State peninsula, this visit
to Berlin will mark another red
letter day in this campaign of de-
velopment and better things.
The Chamber of Commerce did
themselves proud and those in
charge are to be congratulated for
the success of the special train,
loaded with Delmarvia enthusiasts.
And the hosts,-well for a royal
entertainment and hospitality with
out stint and ostentatiOn, Berlin,
Harrisons and Maryland-all
mean about the same thing-they
can't be excelled.
But aside from the enthusiasm,
aside from the social intercourse,
the results of which cannot be
reckoned, the meeting afforded a
striking lesson of the possibilities
of agricultural and fruit growing
on this peninsula.
The saying that this is the Gar
den spot of the world is true but
by constant repetition has become
more or less trite. We fail to grasp
the significance Of its truth. The
realization of this vital faith, by
the whole people, is the responsible
ity of the Chamber Of Commerce
through its publicity department.
We are glad to say, they seem to
sense the duty well and unforeseen
results are predicted. 1t is suffice
to say that the visit was revela-
ton to many of the guests. Will
mington realizes better than ever
before that there is rural penin-
sula worth of her pride and atten-
ton and that her Acres OF Dla-
monds" as usual, lies at her very
door.
Those who did not attend
should make it duty to visit Har-
rison's nurseries. There evary
farmer can be taught lesson well
worth while. 1t is a striking ex-
ample Of what can be accomplish
ed by "work, scientific treatment
of the soil, commonsense, nlgger
and the mule. 1"
We are in receipt Of fine basket
of peaches this morning with the
