Tax Collector Sounds Warming
 About Adding to Tax Burden
Hawkins Delinquent Tax Payers Will Be Ad verised Monday People Want They Must Realize Must Be Paid-Wants Full Light
 Turned On

James F. Hawkins, county tax col lector, yesterday issued a statement drawing attention to certain features or the proposed $7,0O0,0O0 bond issue and additional three mill tax levy
 lie argues that if the people want to raise they should have it, but that before they act they should have all the facts involved placed before them. His statement reads:
 Having read the beautiful appeal co the people to support bond is sue of S7,000,000 and three mill tax raise, feel compelled to throw some light on the many hardships l find when the time comes to collect this obligation.
 The party writing the article has attempted to cut off discussion, or opposition, by pre-condemning any one who should differ with him, but l feel sure that if he had stood in my shoes for the past year, in fact several years. and heard the many heart breaking stories of poverty and hard luck which I have heard, he could see why l am breaking into print on this question.
 Tt is easy to subscribe to any civic or charitable movement. but it is hard to carry out your obligation when it falls due Those of us who subscribed to the many war drives know this. Therefore, l can see where 1t may be easy to work up a lot of enthusiasm for this proposi- tion, but l know just how hard it is going to be on that class of tax payer who is barely ekeing out a living. There are now In this office (tax collector's) more than 1000 tax payers who have been due taxes since October 1, 1921, and are still unable to pay. We are making many levies
The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-04-07

every day to force this collection. and on next Monday will be ordered by the probate court to advertise and sell for taxes the property of ap- proximately 5000 tax payers. Many of these tax payers are widows with many dependents. and the stories they unfold are pitiful.
 Should Be Thoroughly Aired.
 If majority of the voters favor this raise at this time, they are cer- tainly entitled to it, but I contend the matter should be- thoroughly aired and all the light turned on along sound business lines, leaving out appeals to sentiment or preJu- dice.
 Tt is usually argued that tax raises and bond issues are voted by people who do not assess or pay taxes. Whether this be true or not, it Is a well known fact that these same people are taxed indirectly, II not directly. There is no use fooling yourself. if you raise your landlord taxes, he is sooner or later going to raise your rent; and when he raises the merchants rent, that same mer- chant is going to raise the price Of his goods. The tax is going to come out or the consumer III iiiS ohNi . therefore, I contend it Is the duty of every person who votes on this ques- ton to seek ightenment and real ize when this is voted favorably on, the money must be made out of all.
 For the benefit of those who have never taken the trouble to look into it. I want to show just how your tax money is divided when 1t reaches this office.

LIFE SENTENCE IN
 AK MURDER CASE
Lille Byrd Convicted on Cir cumstantiaI Evidence of
 Mantione Killing

Sentence of life imprisonment in the penitentiary was yesterday fm- posed on Lillie Byrd on two charges of murder by a jury before Judge William E. Fort In criminal court. She is charged with killing Joe and Susie Mantione at their store in Col linsville, North Birmingham. last De- cember.
 The storekeeper and his wife were found with crushed skulls late one night. The discovery was made after fire had been set to the house ad- joining the store. Lille Byrd testi- fled that she knew nothing of the murder until a negro man knocked ai her door and told her the house was on fire.
 Other witnesses swore that an ax with a broken handle found in the Mantione store had been owned by the woman and that she had had trouble with the Mantiones about the return of an empty milk bottle. No one saw the murder and conviction was on circumstantial evidence.
 Pete Jenkins and Charley Flaw kins, negroes, are being held in the county jail on charges of murder in connection with the same killing. Their cases have not been set for trial. Assistant Solicitor John c. Morrow was the prosecutor in the Lillie Byrd trial.

Personnel of the advertising com mittee of the Retail Division of the Chamber of Commerce has been ap- pointed and president Henry J. Por- ter has issued a circular letter to the membership announcing the read mess of the committee to serve.
 The letter in part says: Said com mittee is now in position to function. Any and all matters pertaining to unethical advertising is to be re- ferred to such committee for atten- tion. The committee will also handle what is known as charitable adver- Using, such as programs, etc"
 This committee is regarded as one of the most important, because it will handle delicate matters. It is under stood that the personnel is not known and will not be known.

WILKINSON SAYS . THIS IS NO TIME
 ID INCREASE TAXES
Claims Board Is Getting City's Finances in Hopeless and
 Muddled Condition

Protests voicing antagonistic atti- tude toward the proposed city bond issue and levy of the three-mill ed ucational tax. have begun against the measures in various quarters.
 Judge Horace c. Wilkinson, in a stinging statement, vigorously op- poses haste which he says the city is making in diving headlonB into the matter.
 Friends of tho measure, however contend that opposition is based upon unfriendly feeling toward the present administration, evidenced by the ac- tivities of many in the agitation for a change in the form of municipal government for Birmingham
 In his statement Judge Wilkinson declares the announcement of the administration to submit the bond Is. sue to the people by popular vote which Is necessary before 1t becomes legal, is nothing but "characteristi, of the financial policies of the pres ent administration"
 By methods which he contends arc too hasty, MT. Wilkinson declares thu commission Is attempting to rail- road through the greatest financla scheme ever attempted by Birming ham in three days without consulting public opinion and without actually knowing what Is to be done with the money should the issue be successful
 Tt strikes me that time of grea' economic depression is no time to in- crease taxes. even though the pur' pose for which the taxes are in- creased be meritorious. I believe the people of Birmingham will be re- luctant to vote additional taxes, es- pecially If the spending of this moneN Is left in the hands of the present board.
 City finances are now in a mud died condition and hopeless" Judge Wilkinson continues. The commits sion adopted a budget based on max imum estimates of revenues. It fl alre ady some s90,000 behind thai budget in expenditures, and collec- ton of license alone was over $780, 900 below expectations.
 The present commission has, ir six months. muddled city finances until they frankly seem to me to b' going the same way as the Quick De tachable Rim company. Certainly e commission that cannot keep within a budget that the former commission found ample, possible even to save a bit, cannot ask the public with any grace to put the expenditure of $7,- GOO 900 in its hands"
