WHO WILL PAY THE RENT?

Senator MacWiIliams, the man who
has voted on more state appropria-
tons than any man in the state, who
has served longer in the Florida leg
islature than any other man in the
state, who understands the needs,
ETC., of the state as none others,
says; "The appropriations asked for
will amount to $5,0O0,O0O. 1t will
take Is mill tax to raise this amount
under present amount of ASSESS
ments"
| put these questions to you:
Who is going TO pay these appro-
priations?
Will the present legislature amend
our. tax laws so that the hundreds of
millions of wealth in this state will
pay their full and Just share of taxes
or permit them to escape further tax
alton, or must the burdens be borne
by those who have paid the tax bill
heretofore?
Will the legislature permit one
county to assess its property at TWEEN,
ty cents on the dollar and another at
seventy cents on the dollar?
VIII the legislature permit the
small and weak counties to pay from
two to three and half times as
much state taxes ON like wealth as
the big and strong counties?
Will the legislature permit the in
tangible property of this state to es,
cape taxation?
VIII the legislature permit one as,

VIII the legislature permit the tax
assessor of HiIlsborough county to
assess the capital stock, the surplus
and undivided profits of the thirteen
banks in Hillsborough county at thir-
teen different assessments, and the
assessments of the Ave different
banks in Marion, no two on the same
valuation?
This bank wealth is taxable as

Why pass tax laws if our governor

state?
