The B. A. Thomas Hog Powder has

Editor Leader Enterprise,
Fitzgerald, Ga.
Dear Sir: Your editorial notes on
my letter regarding the school tax bill
are not fair editorial notes unless the
editor knew more about the provis-
ions OF the bill in question. The bill
as drawn is an unfair tax bill to the
people OF the state. Not especially
Ben Hill county, because we people
in Ben Hill are satisfied as the law
now stands, without change, but if
is Tor the interest of other counties in
the state that this proposed bill needs
amending, and that is why it is being
held up. However, while we people
IN Ben Hill are satisfied and getting

bill passes as originally drawn it will
change our system in Ben Hill and
that is the reason | am protesting, be-
cause here is the wording of the bill
that will place our county in the same
position as those counties that do not

Judgment, if passed without certain
amendments. cause confusion in cities
and counties in the state And no city

are variances ON taxation or any other
proposition.
