RAISING THE REVENUE
FOR OUR SCHOOLS

In a recent address before
the teachers of Little Rock, A..
B. Hill, Democratic nominee for
state superintendent, discussed
the abandonment of the 14th
Amendment, removing the linn
itation on the district levy for
school taxes. Mr.. Hill declares
that this makes it imperative
that legislation be enacted for
increasing the school revenues
through an increase in the in,
heritance tax and other priv.
lege taxes and the adoption OF
a severance tax. The schools
must have more revenue. 1t is
not a theory, but a fact that car
not be gainsayed; it is indis.
putably demonstrated by gov.

save something that hasn't been

the blood of Christ is the only
fact that is constructive, redemp-
tive, and recreative.
THIRD-The stubborn fact of

great entity known as sinful man
cannot be improved by external
processes; he cannot be redeemed
by education or evolution, or any
other of the delusions. He can be
saved only by the regenerating act
of the Holy Ghost.
1t is the duty of the church and
of every minister of the gospel to
preach the awfulness of sin, the
absolute certainty and power Of
salvation, the judgment that awaits
the unrepentant, and to denounce
with all the power possible the
hellish delusion that the world is

FALSE HOPE

Sin on every side is growing
bolder, and the very delusion con-
tanned in the statement, "The
world is growing better" is of
Satanic origin, and is for the pur-
pose Of putting to sleep the forces
OF righteousness.
Human nature is incapable of
moral improvement by any human
process known to mankind. The
only thing within the power of
God that can change human ma
ture is regeneration. Reformation
cannot affect its character. Re-
generation must precede reforma-

TAX THE NATIONAL BANKS
ADVISES TAXATION EXPERT

"The increasing spread between
prices of what the farmer sells and
what he buys is not chiefly due to
the tariff but to other causes, chief
of which are the war price levels of
transportation fuel, housebuilding
and clothing; this in turn is brought
about by organized labor and their
control is rendered possible by our
present immigration bill
National banks are largely escap-
ing taxes in many states and the
federal statute 5219 should be so modi-
fed that they can be taxed Just as
the farmer is taxed. In Pennsylvania
the owner of bank stock pays 4 mills
while the owner of a farm pays about
az per cent and the chairman OF the
Banking Currency Committee of the
House and of the subcommittee OF
the Senate having this in charge are
both from Pennsylvania" II. c. Nc
