To the Young Men

For some two or three years past,
wages and working conditions in the
cities for strong. intelligent young
men have seemed TO be more attractive
than in the country. The result has
been qtite heavy drift of farm boys to
the towns and cities. Some of them will
do well there: others will not. 1t
will depend a good deal upon their
education. past training and natural
ability. To these who may be consider
ing leaving the farm for the city this
winter or spring, we suggest that they
think over it carefully. As we see il,
prices of most things have very nearly
reached the peak. BUSINESSES booming
and perhaps this may continue for
another year or two. There will be a
good deaaoI for late ligent wurn men

same men in the city, while the oppOr-
tunity to save money is considerably
greater on the farm than in the city;
where expenses are exceedingly high.
Prices can not remain on the upward
grade. We may be on permanently
higher plane of prices, but that does not
mean that prices will keep going up, ntr
even remain as high as they are. The
break is bound to come, just as a break
in business is bound to come. History
will repeat itself in this matter. We
will have a period of hard times with
dull business, and this will throw out
Of work hundreds of thousands of men
IN the industrial centers. And when
the break once comes, We will very
likely be in for from five TO eight years
of hard times. Our ADVICE, therefore,
to the young men on the farm is to 60

and accumulate as much as possible,

their savings to splendid advantage, be-
cause so many people are taking no

DEAR SIR;

DEAR SIR;
Many taxpayers in your county be-

not aware Of the fact that the author
ity of your local County Tax Assessor
has not been taken from him in any de-
gree. | feel that if your citizens I'M
derstood that their assessment will be
made locally by their local authorities,
that il would relieve them of any appre.
hension they may have as 10 an anjas-
tice being done them. | have written
the Tax Assessor of your county let
ter explaining this fact to him and
am very anxious to ha e il published,
that the taxpayers Of your county may
be assured that their assessment il 10

Assessor.

Letter to County Assessor

There appears to be an impression in
the minds of the taxpayers Of your
county that their 1920 assessment has
been made by Assistant Statisticians
from Nashville, and that your author
ity to make your assessment as hereto
fore has been limited or taken away
entirely. This is an error.
The work done by the Chief Tax
Statsuctan and his corps Of assistants
in establishing the value Of property IL
supposed to pretty fairly represent the
total wealth OF your county, and enables
us to determine what the total assess
msnt ia 1920 from each county should
be in order to effect equal cation as be
tween the counties. Each Assessor mas
bee1 furnished copy Of the proof.
The law creating the State Board Of
Equalization does not in any degree
take from the Tax Assessor biz duty to
make his assessment. This is still your
function, to be performed by you as
you have always performed It, except
that you will be required to bring your
county and each individual assessment
to cash value. la my general letter of
instructions to you | said: Wherever
you uicOver that the proven value of
any piece of property dues not rep.
resent the actual cash value, it is your
duty to correct this error and to assess
the property at its actual cash value.
aud enter your assessment IN the
column provided for this purpose on the
proof transmitted to you. Tnls is true
whether the property has been valued
at less than its cash value or in excess
of its cash value" In other WORDS,
our work will effect equalization within
the counties on the basis Of actual cash
value.
am of opinion that it would aid you
IN your work for the tax payers to
know that you have full authority and
that it is your duty to effect equalizs-
tion within your county. am there
fore giving copy of this letter to the
papers Of your county with the request
that they publish same.
Soliciting your continued co-opera-
stion with this Office to end that justice
may be done your county and each cit
izen in your county. am

Negro Education And Social
Equality"

The recent statements sent out to
their own people FROM representative
gathering of negroes in a number Of
states contain recurrent protest
against the mistaken belief that educated
negroes desire social relations with
white people. The ground of this pro-
test is both significant and hopeful.
Time was when a negro would r,
pudiate with horror the implication that
he thought himself fit for such assoca-
ton. 1t may be that the memory of
this humility remains with US as an
integral part of the orthodox negro
attitude toward the question, so that
now. when self.depreciation has disap.
peared. the attitude is regarded as
necessarily changed.
Certainly the outstanding fact in these
statements, from Virginia to Texas is a
new pride of race. The educated
negroes want it understood, by their
own people and by every .body else,
that they are satisfied TO be negroes
that they believe that negroes, and
negroes only. can furnish .whatlnegroes
want in home and social life. To sup
pose that their higher satisfaction can
come through an effort to forcel:them-
selves on another race seemsito them a
slur to their own people.
1--WE are perfectly and satisfied, "
one typical group declares, with
our own society. with colored boys
marrying colored girls. with the com.
partnership of our own people in our
homes. with the building up of our own
social institutions, such as churches,
schools and the like. We are Just az
averse as are white people tossforcing
ourselves upon peopleiwho;do, not de,
sire our presence.
The educated negroes who would moi
subscribe to this statement are very
few and attract disproportionateInot
In studying the present situation the
conclusion seems unacceptable chat the
education of negroes, like that of other
races, develops a race Of consciousness

satisfaction in the life Of gtheir owf
