HARDWICK SPEAKS
AT CONFERENCE

Charleston, Dec. GA mastery ad-
dress on the subject of taxation, the
feature of which was his whole-heart-
ed recommendation of system = of
income taxation for states, was deliv-
cred at the morning session of the
governors conference, held at the
South Carolina hall, by Gov. Thomas
w. Hardwick of Georgia. Gov.
Nathan L. Miller of New York pre-
sided and the governors were all pres
ent, an addition to the number being
Gov. Henry j. Allen of Kansas, who
arrived last night. Following Cover
nor Hardwick's able presentation of
his subject, several governors took
part in discussion, and so interest
ed was the conference on the question
that on motion made by Governor
Cooper, it was. decided to continue
the topic at tonight's session.
Much of what GovGrhor Hardwick
had.to; say as>to conditions in Georgia
applied to this state, and Governor
Cooper followed the address with par
ticularly keen interest.
Governor Hardwick commenced his
address by reminding his hearers that
taxes, ,sof course, aresa1ways disagree
able, ana die stated that it was the
duty of state governments, before
raising taxes, to reduce expenses as
much as possible without impairing
efficiency. The war brought about, he
stated, tendency toward multi
plicity of bureaus, both federal and
state organizations, whose purpose
was to regulate everything and ev-
erybody"'; and now was the time to
get rid Of the unnecessary ones, and
in this way cut down governmental
expenses.
Governor. Hardwick then stated that
he had always believed that a gov
ernment should be supported chiefly
out of the net income of the people
whom it represents; and that as a
member of each house of congress he
voted for the constitutional amend
lrlent which made federal income tax
lawful, and for the legislation carry
ing out the new provisions of the con-
stitution. ~
