THAT PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX


There should be chance when the
next Arkansas legislature meets to
have a situation-a chronic sore spot
cured.
For years past every time propo-
sition comes up to make public inn
provement thru the means of bond
issue. especially in the building of
roads, the great Directing cry has
been that personal property did not
pay anything-the entire burden be-
ing upon real estate.
And the answer always has been:
personal property cannot be
bonded for such purposes under the
existing state constitution"
All of which was true.
But there seems little reason at
this time for such condition to
much longer exist. Arkansas can, by
the coming Legislature, supported
later by the people at the ballot box,
be placed in the same situation as
many other states. An amendment
to the constitution may be adopted by
the legislature, and later ratified by
the people, to provide for the taxing
of personal as well as real property
for public improvements.
The Star knows of no good reason
why this should not be done.
If you want it done, make it your
business to so inform your represen-
tative- elect.
He wants to know.

LITTLE FRANCIS WARREN
TENDERLY LAID TO REST
hoolmates Acted as Pallbearers fer
Victim of Sundays Auto Accident
Many Flowers.

Within a stones throw of the spot
where he met tragic death Sunday
night, funeral services were held
Tuesday morning for Little George
Francis Warren. A little white cas-
ket, covered with flowers, rested at
the altar Of the church within whose
walls the boy had planned to attend
vesper services on the day of his I'M
timely end.
The pews of st. Agnes church were
filled with schoolmates Of Little Fran
els, together with friends and ac-
quaintances of the families that have
suffered most from the shocking acct
dent. OF the gathering that filled the
church to pay last tribute of respect
to the departed, none were more sin
cere than were the families of the two
young men who were in the fateful
auto at the time of Sunday nights
sad happening. Jesse Lauck and Ed
ward Leeper were both at the services.
Following the observance Of the i'm
pressive burial rites of the Catholic
faith, Father Gallagher spoke briefly
of the lessons to be learned from the
accident. His words brought comfort
to the sorrowing and help to those
who have either children or autos.
Six young lads, pupils of st. JOS
eph's Academy, acted as pallbearers.
They were Lambert Christian, Tony
Bigge, Roy Schneider, John Molter,
Gerald Callahan and Homer Ham
mond. Burial took place at the new
Catholic cemetery, adjoining White
Oak, where Father Gallagher per
formed the last rites for the dead boy.

What the Public Utilities
Mean to YOU and
Your Community

Did you stop to think what the
Public Utihties-the Electric, Telephone
Water, Gas and Railway Companes-mean to
you, your community, and your state?
Imagine the inconvenience the discomfort the
loss of pleasure time and money that would
ensue if by some calamity all the Public Utilities
in Arkansas should be compelled to suspend
service. Picture the result: No electricity
for lights and power no phoning for the doctor
to the grocer, or the neighbors pumping and
hauling water, and in the cities chopping knding
and totin' in wood and coal and either walking
miles 10 work or paying Doc or 81 for a taxicab
Without the public service companies it would
be impossible for Arkansas to enjoy the prosperity
them we have better cities and better state
comfort andpeasure it does today Because of
These Public Services can exist and continue
to serve satisfactorily only if they prosper
should they suffer you suffer with them Poor
fuDhc service means poor business for the
mdlvdual and the community.
The utilities of Arkansas are handicanned
and the community and state development
retarded by reason OF Inadequate revenues and
tendency IN some places to harass the comnanes

taxation This makes it difficult for the
companies to obtain funds needed for av+onsi
and requirements.

OHIO COUNTY RGLLS
UP GOOD MAJORITY
More Than 1000 Women
Assume Privilege Of
The Ballot

In the high vote for Presidential
Electors, Ohio County cast total Of
0,3O7, which does not include the
scattering votes for the Prohibition
and Socialist tickets, which will like
ly run the total we'll beyond the TO-
900 mark. Compared with the vote
of last falls election, taking the vote
for Black and Morrow as a basis, the
Tuesdays vote would indicate that
approximately 4,075 women voted
for the Tlerding and Cox tickets, as
that many more votes were cast than
we're pooled for Black and Morrow.
The Democrats increased the,: vote
il the County by 1852 over the fiack
vote. wh.ie the Republican candidate
for President received 2,212 IN re
votes than Governor Morrow pollcd
Assuming that it is fair to double
the 1919 vote of each party in order
to determine the total county vote, if
closely polled, that is, should the
Black Morrow vote be fair party
vote. which it was not, in our tudg-
ment. the Republicans should have
polled $50 sand the Democrats A.
2q4 votes last Tuesday. So If the
Morrcw-Black vote could be consid-
cred strict party register the Demo-
Gratis lost approximately 800 women
while the Republicans lost approx
mately 900, or in other words three
Republican women remained at home
while one Democrat did likewise BY
the comparison it may be seen that
the Republicans have around 900
votes in reserve while the Democrats
have 500, most all of whom will like
ly take past in the next general cleo
tion.
The Republican majority in the
county in 1916 was $50, when the
Democrats polled total vote of g.
I'll, Thus it will he seen that on a
general comparison, it was a great
day for Republicans in Ohio coun-
ty.
Republicans were almost unani-
mously agreed, that the stay-at-home
women in Tuesdays election would |
be very largely Republican. One fea-
ture operating to the advantage Of
the Democrats was that nearly all Of
the towns in the County contain con-
siderably more Democrats than Re-
publicans, therefore it was much ca
sier for large number Of the women
Democrats to reach polWg places |

Campaign Chairman, w. c. Blan-

Of the Womans' Organization, and
Mrs. Gilmore Keown, Secretary, and
number of men and women here
and elsewhere in the County, deserve
much credit and the thanks of all of
us for their untiring labor in or
ganization work. which, owing to
circumstances absolutely unavoidable
was begun too late. But few women
desired to vote, this was especially
true with the women out in the Coun-
ty, 1t required a lot of effort in
many places to induce them to vote
at all, simply because they did not
care to assume the esponsibilities
and desired that matters relating to
government be controlled and worked
out by their husbands, fathers and
sons.
