amended by J. Davis Reed so as to limit
the appropriation to $4,000. Mr.. Reed,
n judge OF property values. held that
the property was not worth moro than
that figure and that 1T might be bought
for even less.
Other measures passed in the House
were those to make it a misdemeanor
for husband to desert his wife or a
parent TO desert or neglect n child; to
amend the revenue act; to amend the
act creating q commission to consider
compensation OF county officials; to
amend the act regulating sanitation

TAX INCREASE MEASURES
WILL COME UT TO-DAY
When the tax measures come up this
morning, ]. Davis Reed. the taxation
student of the General Assembly. will
submit an amendment asking that tax
alton on intangiblcs be fixed at 80
cents and that all of it be paid to the
State. Mr.. Reed would have 40 cents
of this go to defraying expenses of
the State government. The other 40
cents would be paid to the school fund.
Mr.. Reed figures that this will pro-
duce about the same revenue for these
purposes as the West 50-45 bill.
through which the State is to derive
so cents and incorporated communities
As cents from properties affected BY
that bill.
1t is probable that the Senate com
promise measure, designed to levy spe-
cial taxes of cents for roads, 3 cents
for schools and cents for Catawba,
will also be discussed when the other
tax bills come up for consideration
this morning. There is strong SEN
timent among the Delegates to support
the bill presented by the House
Finance Committec-thati is, the cents
levy for schools-but there are many
among them who are favorable to the
measure submitted by the Senate. The
West bill. with whatever amendments
s~ly be submitted will probably not
be passed by the House. for the reason
that it seems to thoroughly upset the
system upon which appropriations and
other taxation measures have been
based.
