Mr.. A. ]. Quinn of Glover, who is
collecting tax executions in Kings
Mountain township, said recently that
never before had he heard Of 80 many
people moving to North Carolina from
this section in so short time as had
been the case this year. Where a
party has left the state no effort Is
made to collect taxes due from that
party and therefore there are many
who will pay no tax for the past year.
Most of those who have left the state
in time to get out Of paying their tax
es are small farmers-mostly croppers
who lived in York county when they
made their return and who, during the
past several months have moved to
Cleveland, CASTOR or Mecklenburg
| counties.
