STATE SENATOR BLOCH

Citizens Of Ohio county and in the
northern section Of the state generally
will note with considerable interest the
stand taken against the gross sales tax
and in favor OF the depletion taxes by
State Senator Jesse A. Bloch Mr.. Bloch
has been one Of the most consistent and
influential advocates OF a depletion tax.
He made most vigorous fight for the
oil and gas tax IN the Legislative ses-
sions Of 1919. and In this session he has
been an earnest and vigorous champion
of that principle OF taxation. Mr..
Bloch's influence has been wisely and
efficiently exercised for measures which
undoubtedly meet tho approval Of the
large majority OF the citizenship Of this
section OF the state.

three ceanest cities in Mississippi This statement and
classification comes from DR.. c. NJ. Shipp, of Jackson
Chief Sanitary Inspector of the State Doctor Shpp was
in Columbus, Thursday, and he agreeaby surprised
at the change that has Columbus.
this splendid condition Of sanitation the result of the
progressive spirit of the city fathers in creating the office
of City Sanitary Inspector.
The results that have been attained have come about
largely because of the efficient work of Mr. j. c. Lyons
the Inspector Mr. Lyons has administered the sanitary
laws without fear favor and he has had the cordial
support and cooperation Of the people of the city
