In the coast matches.
The failure of Hackett and Pell in the
Eastern championship doubles at Long
wood last week will probably mark the
passing of Hackett as n championship
factor. 1t has been considered a seven
days wonder that Hackett has been able
TO last 50 long at the top of the doubles
players, and only when he has been in
close training for hard play has he been
able 10 bear through long matches in the
last few seasons. On paper Hackett and
Pell looked to be easily the best OF the
teams entered for the doubles at Long
wood. yet they were beaten In the semi
finals by Williams and Washburn. who
are not considered to be a very power
full combination.
The champion Is a poor doubles
player at best. His method, very sue
cessful In singles. is poorly adapted TO
the other game. For modern doubles a
very close net position Is required for
the volley. Williams hangs back dan
gerously far In volleying always and
has a tendency to get the ball at his feet.
even resorting TO the half volley at times
because he IL caught out OF position.
The very essence Of good play in
doubles requires the players to crowd
very close 10 the net and volley az
gressively at all times. This position
naturally opens the player to attack
from the lob overhead. which may be so
well timed and well placed sometimes
as TO catch the man at the net so close
in that he cannot get back In time to
volley the ball, and must let It drop.
This Invariably turns the attack over to
the opposite side, so the lob Is more often
used as an attacking stroke in good
doubles than In singles.
With Hackett and Peli eliminated
from the championship lists for the
doubles the chances for an Eastern
team In the challenge round have grown
INNER Church and Mathey seem
now to b. the only pair whose chances
can be considered very seriously to beat
Johnson and Griffin at Chicago In the
intersectional playon. They had an
easy path through the Northwestern
championship sectional tournament at
Lake Minnetonka last week and quail
fed easily for the Chicago finals.
The Western for doubles
conflicts this season with Seabriyht, and
this is likely to take some OF the best
players away from tho popular meeting
on the Jersey coast Mclaughlin has
promised to enter this event and Bundy
and many of the best Eastern stars are

now taxed at all is of itself pretty
conclusive answer to this charge.
1t is also urged against the propos-
ed act that the appointment of state
tax commission by the governor is to
invest that official with too much
power. Having always urged that the
power and authority of the governor
should be increased rather than di-
minished, to The Herald this is
most Illogical objection. The COVER
nor is the responsible head of the
state, elected for a fixed term. With
out power and authority he cannot ef-
fectively and properly administer the
great affairs of the state.
Two years ago The Herald bitterly
fought the proposal to establish a
state tax commission because, under
the bill then pending, the appointing
power was vested in the legislature,
and to our mind was an unwarranteo
infringement upon the powers of the
executive. This defect has been rem,
edied in the pending bills. There is
no use having officials unless they
are given power to achieve results.
If these powers are abused the people
have a remedy.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1915-04-23
BUSINESS PROSPECTS.

If the republicans are expecting to
win next years contest on the cry of
hard times they are likely to be dis
appointed 1t is probable that had
the election been held during the first
six months of the European war the
democrats would have lost the presi-
dency The party in power always
suffers for business depression, how
ever unjust and unfounded the charge
may be that it is responsible for I'M
toward conditions.
There is now every prospect of an
unprecedented business revival The
increased trading in the stocks and
bonds Of the country, the apprecia-
tion in value of all railroad and indus
trial stocks, the upward tendency of
the market for cattle, hogs and cot
ton, in fact, of practically all Of the
products of the farm, afford the most
abundant evidence of prosperity
Business in all lines is expanding.
In many lines mills are running over
time to supply the rush of orders.
The balance of trade in favor of the
United States will be not less than
billion dollars this year. In every f.
nancial center Of this country con-
ditions are absolutely normal. Prac-
tically all of the emergency curren-
cy issued at the beginning of the war
has been retired from circulation. In
terest rates are lower than they have
been in years. There is abundance
Of capital for all new enterprises.
The banks almost everywhere have
funds largely in excess Of the legal
reserve requirements.
The man who takes anything but
an encouraging view Of the business
outlook is indeed a hopeless pessi-
mist. The condition of his mind is
alone responsible If he fails to see a
decided rift in the industrial and f.
nancial clouds that have lowered
since the beginning Of the European
catastrophe.

and give some of their time and at
tention to matters pertaining to the
general welfare of the community
Every meeting of the Board of Trade
should be as we'll attended and as en-
thusiastic as that on Tuesday night.
If this should be the case for a year
we would reap a handsome reward in
this section. We need more commu.
nifty spirit, more of zeal for things
that pertain to the general interests
of all. Too many of US are inclined
to be bit selfish; we get so absorbed
in our own immediate affairs that we
neglect the larger things which really
make for the advancement and uplift
of the community. We have too much
the habit Of looking at every PROPOSE
tion from the purely selfish stand
point. We will ask the question.
How is 1t to help me-" And herein we
forget too often that whatever con.
tributes to the general good Ia al

to have privately owned but publicly
controlled highways than It is to have
the roads owned and operated by the
public. From the experience that
Maury county has had in recent
years, that Williamson county has
had and is having, in regulating and
controlling private owners of high
ways we must confess that we doubt
II there is much force in the argu.
ment Of this minority The people OF
this county have not yet seen the ad-
vantages Of public regulation" 1t
has not regulated and does not seem
in any fair way to effectively regu.
late. The only solution is the pur-
chase at fair and reasonable valua-
ton of the ten per cent OF the roads
that are privately owned.

TAX REFORM.

Although Only fifteen days remain
Of the legislative session very little
Roadway has been made in the very
important matter of tax reform. Prac.
tically no consideration has been Civ.
en- by the members to the recommen-
dations and bills prepared by the tax
commission after a month of consci.
entious and painstaking effort.
This is one of the biggest questions
confronting the legislature. A failure
to reform our tax laws will be a dis
tinct breach of the faith with the
people. All political parties repre-
scented in the membership of the leg
islature are pledged to reform the ex-
listing system. In every speech that
he made Gov Rye inveighed against
the back tax laws as now written
upon the statute books. Criticism OF
those laws has been general and Sc
we're for several years and much, if
not all, of 1t has been merited.
There is now and has been for a
long time an insistent demand that
some finality be given to a tax re.
ceipt. While the law has not been
abused in every back tax proceeding
the fact that abuse is permitted at all
II constant menace to the welfare
Of the state.
No one denies that the system of
tax assessments is unfair and inequit-
able. The, statement that only a
fractional portion of the personal
property Of Tennessee ever gets upon
the assessment rolls is admitted by
all, Under the present system there
is no hope for improvement. The
taxation of personal property at pre-
vailing rates of taxation would be
tantamount to confiscation Small
wonder therefore that most of this
species of property is concealed.
1t is probably too early yet to seri-
ously consider the abolition of the
general property tax, which has little
TO commend it except that we have
always had the system, but assuredly
the recommendation of the tax com
mission that certain forms of person.
al property be taxed upon an income
basis is entitled to the most serious
and favorable consideration.
The idea, so industriously eircu-
lated, that the prime object of the
tar bills prepared by the commission
is to increase the tax burden upon
the lands Of the state is altogether a |
mistaken one. The fact that an ef- |
fort is made to reach property not
