GEORG|A'S TAX BURDENS g
MUST NOT Be INCREASED
N HOLDER

Atlanta, June 29.-Speaker John N.
Holder Of the House Of Representa-
tives, candidate for governor in the
coming democratic primary, made a
ringing statement in opposition to put
ting any increased burden of taxation
upon the people of Georgia, in his ad-
dress at the opening of the 1920 ses-
sion of the legislature.
A service of nineteen years in the
legislature and four terms as speaker
Of the house, has naturally made Mr..
Holder one of the best posted men in
Georgia regarding state affairs. In
vigorously opposing any increase in
the state tax rate, Mr.. Holder did not
hesitate to propose a remedy which,
if employed, will provide for Georgia s
schools and take care of the states
financial needs. Concerning taxation
here is what Speaker Holder said
Many worthy causes are now
knocking at the door of this legislature
for financial aid. | am confident that
you will make earnest effort to meet
every just demand. In so doing we
must give consideration to the people
who pay the bills-the taxpayers Of
Georgia. They are already heavily
burdened. When they have paid theil
State taxes, county taxes, city taxes
special taxes, school taxes, income
taxes, and have responded to the many
patriotic and charitable demands, ;
great part of their income has beer
taken away from them.

JOHN N. HOLDER

"Not one penny more of tax burden
should be levied on the property now
on the tax books of the state, and un.
der no circumstances should the tax
rate be made greater than it is today.
Most of the revenue of Georgia is
derived from tax on homes. farms,
stock and other visible property of this
state, while we are told that millions
Of dollars known as intangible and
invisible property Is paying nothing
to the support and maintenance Of
the state government and it's splendid
institutions. The additional revenue
necessary for the proper support of all
the states interest should be obtained
from this class of property.
Crop conditions in Georgia are not
bright but gloomy. With short crops
and possibly lower price for the
products Of the farms and field, to-
gether with the disturbed and unsat.
isfactory business situation, the load
carried by the taxpayers will be al.
most unbearable. They must be con.
sidered and their burden not made
heavier than 1t Is at present, and in
their behalf make this appeal to you.
All property should bear its equal
share of the tax burden of the state.
The great task before this legislature
is to solve this important and mo.
lmentous problem. l believe that you
will do so, ever keeping in mind the
words on the great seal of the State
lof Georgia, Wisdom, Justice and Mod,
