Income Tax Now is Losing
Ground.

Baton Ronge, La, April A.
Having heard every one who had
an ordinance on the subject of
taxation and having listened for
six weeks to arguments against
income occupational and all other
forms of taxation the committee
on taxation closed it's doors
Thursday morning and got down
to real work. The entire subject
is now before the committee and
it will require some time for it to
whip its program into shape.
Two important problems are
before the committee. One con.
Germs the proposed income tax
and the other is the proposition Of
placing a constitutional slimit on
state, parish and municipal taxes.
Some members of this import
aut committee are disposed to
leave as much latitude to the leg
islature as possible. Others are
for trying the hands of the Gen.
eral Assembly.
The severance tax will be a
hard nut to crack. Regardless Of
what the committee does, a fight
on this issue is sure to come when
the committees report reaches the
floor of the convention. North
Louisiana parishes are determin.
ed to make a fight for allowing
the parishes to levy a severance
tax and this is certain to be op.
possed by the friends Of Governor
Parker, who regard him as pledg'
ed TO keep the rate of severance
tax at the same figure.
What the committee will dt
with the Greater Agriculture Col
lege is problematical. There il
just bare possibility it may side
step the entire issue and leave thu
subject to the Legislature entire
ly.
One thing appears certain. Th'
income tax has lost considerable
ground, not on the evil of tn
theory, but because many mem
, bers feel this is not the time to at
tempt so radical a change in tn
tax system.
The committee on taxation, lik'
!, the judiciary committee, has
big job in front of it. Under tn
rules of the convention it is nc
required to report until May
and every bit of this time will b
! needed.

Sweet Potatoes Receive At
tentiOn.

"At present the sweet potato is
the most widely grown horticul.
tural crop Of the South, receiving
attention by the horticultural ex.
tension forces,' according to M.
Hull, sweet potato specialist.
"Every southern state is doing
special work with sweet potatoes
while some Of the states, among
them being Alabama and Louisi-
ana, have men who are devoting
their entire time to the work.
Storing and marketing are the
two problems demanding the
greatest attention. In view Of the
fact that the southern states pro.
duce about 80 per cent Of the
sweet potatoes grown in the coun-
try and market only about 20 per
cent is sufficient justification for
pushing this line of work.
! Diseases Of the sweetpotato are
! becoming so widely scattered that
it is practically obligatory upon
the part Of every grower to care
| fully select and disinfeet his seeo
before bedding.

3 various states have demonstrated
that sweet potatoes cannot be de-
I pended upon to keep if dug afte
