THE TAX CORNER.
The 6iind Man and the Elephant.

NJ. Editor:
In the University Weekly News OF
March 81, in a. article, 'The Tax
Corner" in speaking Of the greatest
need of South Carolina says: "South
Carolina ranks among the lowest of
the whole sisterhood Of states. The
Palmetto flag flies over more mental
darkness and ignorance 10 the square
inch than exists in any other state OF
the Union, save possibly one." 1t Will
continue to float over such state SO
long as over six hundred dollars IS
appropriated for each boy and girl in
the state institutions and only s:X dol
lars and seventy-two ceats is appro-
priated to teach the more than 200,-
600 boys and girls in the common
schools of the state. Comment IS
unnecessary. The facts and fiugres
speak for themselves.

most?" you would get twelve differ
ent answers,-and all would be cor
rect.
''Good roads," one would say. Oar
roads are disgrace. We need a hun
dred million dollars worth of we'll
graded, hard-surfaced roads. Why,
when was in Florida last year Coz
maybe Massachusetts, or California;
and then you would hear Of a good
roads paradise. with 10 holes, no ruts,
no bumps, no mud, no broken springs,
| no biow-oUts
What South Carolina needs moss,
a6other would say, ''is not m2ateria!
..ags like gcod roads, but a wider
| field Of social service a more synpa-
thetic ard scientific way of dealing
with our dependent ard defective
classes. The State is not doing It's
duty IN organized charity and social
| welfare work. Toe much is lett TO
chance or to individual effort. I he
strong arm of the State must be
stretched out nightly and intelligent
!ly 10 protect the weak and the help
less, to give the underpriyileged a
! fair chance and a square deal.
"The greatest need Of South Caro-
lima third would insist, ''is increas-
ed court facilities and prison reform.
For lack of judges and court machln-
cry justice is delayed for months and
even for years. And our penal sys-
tenn is medieval and cruel. We look
not at the criminal, but at the crime.
We punish by hard and fast rules,
fitting the criminal to the punishment,
not the punishment to the criminal.
The criminal is usually man who is
socially sick. We should try to cure
him and restore him to society, in
stead of bounding him down as we
would a mad dog or a wolf"
"Why ask?" another would say.
Every one knows that the States
chief need is education. There are
six fundamentals for judging an edu
cational system; namely, public school
expenses per inhabitant, expenses per
pupil, salaries of teachers, length of
school term, school attendance, and
illiteracy. In each of these six points
South Carolina ranks among the low
est of the whole sisterhood of States.
The Palmetto Flag flies over more
mental darkness and ignorance to the
square inch than exists in any other
State in the Union, save possibly
one"
Which of these needs could you de-
clare to be unnecessary? Put it to a
vote all over South Carolina and you
would get unanimous verdict ip fa-
vor of all of them.
What is the trouble, then? Why
don't we get them?
The trouble IS that they all cost
money, and much money. That is all,
but it is enough. Find a way to dou-
bic or treble the States income, and
all our troubles would vanish. But
the only source of income the State
has is taxation. And taxation is a
sore subject. Nobody wants to think
about it, or hear about it. ''I'll dis
cuss education with you, or good
roads, or prison reform or the League
Of Nations, but don't bring up the
subject CT taxes. The only thing l
know about taxes is that they ere too
high and l want them reduced

HOPE OF SETTLEMENT
IN INDUSTRIAL CRISIS
Lloyd George Moves to Bring Results
IL Serious Coal Strike Situation
in Great Britain

London, April 7.-Another day OF
tense alterations Of hope and tear
ended with one of the prime minis
ter's characteristic eleventh hour IN
terventiens, bringing renewed pros
poets that the grave industrial CRISIS
will be averted. He announced IN the
house of commons tonight the will
ingness Of the government to partlcl-
pate in a conference to discuss the
question of pumping before othef
matters were considered.
:, Informal conferences were contln-
he'd throughout the evening, moder-
tes Ike Mr.. .Asquith, Lord Robert
Acil, Arthu~ Henderson and John
|ert Clynes working hard IN an
Favor to induce the miners to
on Che question Of pumping,
was supposed that the whole
on was turning on this slender
n1ier Lloyd George had oeen
absent during the latter hours OF the
debate on the situation but returned
to the house unexpectedly at II
O'Clock and informed the members
that the government had agreed to
course which it is believed practically
certain the miners will accept-the
calling of conference Of owners ana
miners to discuss with the government
the difficulty relative to pumping be-
fore touching upon the question OF
wages and others involved in the de-
mands of the men.
What steps exactly had led up to
this change of front are unknown as
vet. Arthur Henderson, who rose TO
reply to the premier was clearly non
plussed. He had, he said, to express
regret that the premier had not gwen
notice of such an important state
ment as Mr.. Thomas, secretary OF the
national union of railway men, to
whose suggestion it was apparently
due, and other leaders had gone home
AS he had explained earlier the NIL
ners' federation would have preferred
to open the conference without con-
ditions on either side but he had not
had an opportunity to consult the fed
Grafton since the afternoon, there
fore he could not assume responsible
ity in the matter. He thought the
only safe line would be for the prime
minister to place his statement IN al
letter to the officials for considera-
ton.
The organizations composing the
triple alliance held no further meet
ings tonight; they are apparently
holding hands until tomorrow. The
board of trade issued an official report
Of todayA negotiations for the en-
ligatenment Of the public. The re
port sets forth the arguments OF both
sides and, concluding with a strong
reputation of the accusation that the
government is engaged n general
attack on wages, says:
:sSuch charge IS as monstrous as
it is unfounded. \ The government
and continuity alike are desirous that
the hest WAGES should be paid in every
industry that such industry can al
foru.'''

CORDOvA POWER
 PLANT BURNS

The power plant of the Alaska Pulp lie Utilities at Humpback was totally destroyed by Fire on Sept. First and the loss is estimated at $20,0OO, hich is partially covered by insurance. Man uel Swanson, who has charge of the plant was absent at the time His wife and Miss Thelma Mcconnell were in an adjoining room and about seven o'clock it began to fill with smoke. They immediately rushed into the en- zine room, which was also dense with smoke and blaze raging in the rear of the switch board. In short time the entire buildinb was envcloped in flames and burned to the ground, de- stroying al the machinery.
 The building occupied by the Swan sons and which adjoins the power plant was burned, together with all their personal belongings. The fire is believed to have started from a short circuit in the rear of the switchboard. As MT. Mcconnell is now in Seattle it is not known whether the plant is to be rebuilt but the probabilities are that it will. In the meantime the aux iiary plant at the foot of c. street will furnish Cordova with light and power.
