KILLED THE BILL

Some overzealous gentlemen, men,
bers of the South Carolina General
Assembly got busy last week and at
; tempted to rush through bill, which
would provide for the levying of a
tax upon all Building ard Loan as
sociations in the State.
Our idea of these associations is
that they are cooperative, mutual or
ganizations whose main object is the
promotion of home building and as
sisting poor men in building and
owning their homes. There is no
mistaking the great benefits derived
by community through building and
loan associations throughout the
country. South Carolina is no excep-
ton, for thousands of her citizens
have become property owners through
the mutual cooperative plans of such
associations, at least such is the case
in Kingstree where we have had in
operation a building and loan asso-
ciatioh for the past twelve or fifteen
years.
In view of the object or principles
of these associations We see no
ground for imposing tax, and we
believe such law would be unjust
inasmuch as it would not only tax
the association collectively but would
also tax the property of the individ-
ual members acquiring homes
through the association thereby col
lecting twofold tax.
When the bill was brought up for
consideration last week in Columbia
wires were kept busy informing the
officers of the various associations in
this section Messages were received
in Kingstree and at Georgetown
where there are four such coopera-
tive organizations. Prominent citizens
were asked to advise their represen-
tatives in the General Assembly to
oppose such a measure. Whether this
has been done or not we are not pre-
pared to say, but it is generally hop
ed that the representatives from Will
liamsburg and Georgetown counties
will use their vote against any meas
ure that Would impose a double tax
on building and loan associations.
on building and loan associations.
In fact the State government should
follow the example of the Federal
government in encouraging, as far as
possible, in their operations.

JUST CAUSE FOR COMPLAINT

There was considerable grumbling,
and justly so, heard by the editor of
this newspaper at Lane one day last
week because of a very unusual and
uncalled for custom of holding up
for hours at Lane the passenger train
on the Seaboard Air Line railroad
between that place and Georgetown
in order that few men from the
North, purely on pleasure bent,
might not suffer the inconvenience of
waiting over upon their arrival there
on the A. C. L. road, for the next
train to Georgetown. On Friday the
little train on the Seaboard road
which is supposed to leave Lane about
noon, was held for four hours to
await the arrival of Mr.. Baruch, Mr..
McAdoo and several other gentlemen
of means and leisure who were run
ming down from Washington to hunt
birds and shoot ducks. They were
travelling in a special car attached to
A. c. L. train No. SO which was sew
eral hours behind its scheduled time.
The weather was cold and disagree
oble, the, little Seaboard train was
uncomfortable, and to add to the
discomfort of its passengers it had
to lay there in waiting for Mr.. Ba-
ruch and Mr.. McAdoo, ct ais, were
coming down to take a hunt, travel
ing in a special car, doubtless pal
ace on a small scale, where every
luxury was provided and could have
remained there on the tracks until
the departure of the regular evening
train on the Seaboard road without
its occupants knowing an uncomfort-
able moment; the birds and the ducks
and the citizens of Georgetown, too,
could have awaited there delayed ar
rival without serious inconvenience.
But no, the order was to hold the lit
tie train and let the women and chill
dren, business men and commercial
travellers wait.
On Saturday it was the same, only
the little train was held but an hour
and half; and for what-two dough-
faced sports with half dozen finely
incased guns, and other luggage
enough to make a Korean donkey
look pale and droopy under the pack.
In these good old United States,
the rule has long been, and should be
still, that what is good for the goose
should be good for the gander, and if
a train can be held up by the rail-
road administration, at Lane for a
few high "mucksademucks" who want
to get into Georgetown county to
hunt birds and kill ducks, it should
also be held for the commercial trav7
elers OF business man on belated A.
C. L. trains, enroute to Georgetown.
On Saturday, the conductor in
charge of the little Seaboard train
was no less disgusted than his pas
sengers, when after waiting with his
train an hour and a half, "only two
bird hunters" proved to be the cause
of his hold up.
