Montgomery, August 6.-(Special.) Arguments on demurrers flied by the state to the petition of W. c. Bras well of Coffee county, claiming to act for all the tax payers of Ala bama, for a writ of mandamus re- quiring the state tax commission to proceed at once to the revaluation of all property in Alabama, were completed before Judge Walter E. Jones of the circuit court late Sa;- urday and Judge Jones took the case under advisement A decision will be rendered as soon as a list of cases cited by the state and attorneys for Braswell have been filed and Judge Jones has studied them. Braswell acted for the Alabama Tax Payers league, this being one of the cases which the organization decided to bring after the society was formed in Montgomery two months ago.
 In this case 1t is contended that section S4 of the revenue act of 1919, which provides that all assessments made by the tax adjusters after personal inspections of the property involved shall stand for two years, is unconstitutional and invalid and violative of section 21l of the con stitution which says the levy of taxes shall be in exact proportion to the value of the property
 Attorneys for the petitioner in- cluding Byrd G. Farmer of Dothan, Senator R. B. Evins of Greensboro. W. o. Mulkey of Geneva and J. A.. Carnley of Elba, contended that this provision has been violated by the legislature because it provided for a two-year assessment and that the assessment for the second year is not in exact proportion to the value of the property.
 Harwell c. Davis. attorney general. and Judge A. A. Evans, member of the state tax commission, made the arguments for the state. They con- tended that the petitioner has mis- taken his remedy. that he cannot now go into a court and seek writ of mandamus for the correction of his tax assessment when he failed

to accept the remedy provided by the law at the time it was within his power to accept 1t. Ia was pointed out that Mir. Braswell and every other tax payer in Alabama had the right to appeal from any decision of the tax adjuster to the board of reVe- nue, from the board of revenue to jury of the circuit court and from jury of the circuit court to the ap- pellate court, and from the appellate court to the supreme, but Mir Bras well, not having availed himself of this method of appeal, cannot now go into an equity court and obtain writ of mandamus requiring the state tax commission to upset the orderly plan of the tax assessment states contention.
 However after arguing that the petition must be dismissed because 1t has no standing In court, repre- sentatives of the state insisted that the legislature was we'll within it's power in providing that the assess ments, when made following per sonal inspection of the property should stand for two years It was pointed out that the legislature of 1911 provided that the assessments should remain fixed for two years that the legislature of 1915 extended this time to four yearsJ and that the legislature of 1919 returned to the two-year basis. Another argument of the state was that even If Section S4 of the revenue act is invalid it is not now possible for the state tax commission to revalue property for the fiscal year of 1920, because the time has expired when the taxing machinery may be used for the as sessment or valuation of property and that the season for the collection of the taxes is only two months away. The state contends that con fusion if not utter chaos would re- suit if it were necessary to provide for revaluation of the property at this time.
 Good feeling prevailed throughout the arguments and attorneys for the Tax league and representatives of the state expressed a desire to get at the facts in the case at issue. At torney General Davis made the first argument. He was followed by MT Evins. Mir. Farmer MT. Mulvey and MT. Carnley, for the petitioner. The argument was closed by Judge Evns for the state. Judge Jones announced that he would reach decision as soon as he had given the proper study to the case.

 These laws prove the abandonment of the communist system. The soviet governors are now seeking, as Rykov, their chief economist writes. the lawful activation of the bour- geoisie on an economical basis"
 Thus the way is open With charity--even in Hooyer's admirable manner of dispensing it-nothing can be done to prevent the decay of the great Russian country. That pre- vention is possible only by the mobi-- lization of all nations capable of helping. Europe and Asia will be drawn into chaos if great Russia dies, as after the Tartar invasion.
 Just as in the far east, China door is kept open, so in the near east. Russia must not fall prey to a single nations profiteering. The worlds economic malady can be healed only by joint reconstruction of Russia. Germany's sun also can only rise in the east.

LITTLE DAMAGE YET
TO TOBACCO CROP
(By Associated Press)

Lexington, KY, Sept. 5-De-
spite the fact that angular leaf
spot and wildfre, the two main
tobacco diseases, are quite pre-
valent in the state, favorable
weather conditions have prevent
ed their doing serious damage to
the tobacco crop, according to w.
d. Valleau, plant pathologist Of
the Kentucky Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station. Both diseases
are less prevalent than in 1920, he
said, and unless a combination Of
rain and windy weather prevails
from now on, damage done by
these two diseases will be consid-
ably less than last year.
Cutting of tobacco already has
started i'll some sections of the
Blue Grass region and with crops
in the barns it is hoped that dam
age will be kept at a minimum.
Angular leaf spot which is
sometimes known as rust is
prevalent all over the state but
has caused little damage except
in isolated regions where rains
and high winds have contributed
toward its spread. Wildfire is
less prevalent than the leaf spot
and has not been serious except
in occasional cases. These cases
have resulted from spreading
caused by winds and rains.
The possibility of the diseases
doing serious damage from now
on will depend upon weather en-
tirely, Mr.. Nalleau said. Serious
spreading of the diseases is apt to
occur should high winds and rains
prevail and the pathologist warn
ed farmers to cut out badly di-
seased areas to check the spread
of the trouble.
a third disease present in the
state this year, Which is being
confused by many growers with
angular leaf spot, according to
Mr.. Valleau. appears on the So
called mosaic of calico plants.
producing small spots which later
result in large burned areas on
both the lower and top leaves.
This disease need not be feared
he said. since it will not spread
