TO ABOLISH FEES FOR

present session is the belief of
well-informed members of the
house and senate.
In the house yesterday, on a
test vote to disagree to the ad-
verse report of the constitutional
amendments committee rs votes
were cast for the bill and only 6
against it,
This vote alone was sufficient
to have passed the bill, had it
been on its passage, notwith-
standing the fact that as a con-
stitutional amendment it requires
two-thirds of the whole house
which is 126, and notwithstand-

with the fact that the better the
railroad facilities, and the better
the public highways the greater
will be the number Of people COM
ing into town.
Merchants should be the first
class of people to realize the
great value of good roads but this
is not the case in Waycross. Even
the ladies of the city have grasp
ed the importance of the situation
and have already organized for
the purpose OF improving and
identifying the Dixie Highway
throughout Ware county, and to
carry on campaign of good
roads education.

LOOKS LIKE A HOPELESS
TASK

The efforts that have been
made by a few to impress upon
the masses the importance Of the
Dixie Highway seem to meet with
little success, Our efforts in mat
tiers on public nature that effect
the individual only in a casual
way have taught us the difficulty
Of arousing enthusiasm over such
in the individual but as Mr.. Y. L.
Stanton of the chamber Of COM
merce says, we have never seen
a case where the merchants, who
are to receive the greatest bene-
fit, the hardest to enthuse.
SO far as The Journal-l4erdd
has been able to observe there
has been little interest upon the
part Of Waycross merchants in
connection with the good roads
movement, and absolutely no en-
thusiasm.
1t would seem that any mer-
chant who would think twice
could not help but be impressed
with the fact that the retail mer-
camille business Of any town or

TAX ACT TO BE SPECIAL
ORDER IN THE HOUSE

Atlanta, July 15.-The bill to
repeal the tax equalization law
Will come before the house of rep
resentatives again Monday as a
result OF a renewal of the fight by
ITS advocates in the house yester-
day.
The tax equalization act, which
was one of the administration
measures of Governor John M.
Slaton, has compelled the return
for taxation of thousands of acres
OF land on which the owners had
never paid any taxes before, and
has assessed other thousands of
acres at their market value
where previously they had been
returned" by the owners at
merely nominal values.
For the state to return to the
old laws, according to opponents
OF the repeal, will result in a de-
hc1t IN the state treasury which
nothing can overcome but a bond
issue. Already the treasury is
barely able to pay the appropri-
ations made by the legislature
notwithstanding the large in
crease in tax values resulting
from the enforcement of the
equalization law.
Should the law be repealed,
values are certain to shrink, and
the state will then be compelled
to raise the tax rate to the maxi
mum limit allowed by the Con
stltution, with the prospect of
still being short of funds with
which to pay appropriations.

Grnndstand managers nre pretty well
agreed that Fielder Jones' Brownies
lack that run-making essential--a
punch. Sixty.four games of the one
run margin variety. 81 of these defeats,
are pointed to rs evidence that the
club Is deficient in batting effective
ness, writes Ed Wray in st. Louis Post
Dispatch.
It Is also agreed by the amateur
managers that Fielder Jones Is maxi
ing mistake in sitting tight with his
present outfit and In planning to con-
tinue his 1917 campaign with the same
punchless cast. s.
But there is the large "on-the-other-
hand" to his argument, one that can
be backed up by figures. Batting Is fur
from being everything In the life of
a successful team; and that the injec-
ton of little more timeliness into the
swatting of our Brownies, plus the
teams great superiority in speed, may
vet vindicate the clubs manager.
The answer to this view will, Of
