TERRITORY
BUSINESS IMPROVING
Traffic Being Handled By Road
Shows Gratifying Increase,
President Winburn States

The improved business conditions
in the territory served by the Cen
trail of Georgia railway are indicat-
ed by the increase in, traffic
handled by the road, according to
statement by President w. A.
Winburn, published elsewhere. Mr..
Winburn points out that the freight
traffic for the first months of 1928
was greater by 46 1-2 per cent than
for the like period of last year,
while passenger traffic, increased
IL rs per cent.
In order to handle this. increased
business, many additions and inn
proyements have been made by the
Central, and the efficiency of its
operating force is indicated by The
fact that during September the av-
erage miles per car per day reach
nb IS. This surpasses the figure
of 80 miles per car per day fixed
by the American Railway associa-
ton as the goal of efficient opera
ton to be reached by the railroads
this year. Mr.. Winburn points out

represent actual distance travelled
by a freight car in a train but takes
into account the total number OF
cars on the line-those being load
ed and unloaded, those standing at
terminals and in sidings; even those
in shops tor repairs. He says the
average speed of all freight trans,
through the local, was 13 miles
per hour.
Increased business enabled the
railway to make good showing in
operating revenue in the face OF the
fact that the average freight rates
are lower than in previous years.
The revenue in 1928 for hauling a
ton of freight one mile was / 9-l0O
cents. reduction of 47.4 per cent
from the revenue received in 1929.
which was 1-32-100 cents.
Closing the statement, Mr.. Win
burn says that no small part Of the
credit goes to shippers and con-
signees for their prompt loading
and unloading of freight. and that
the showing is not alone a gain
Tor the Central, but a splendid rec
ord for the territory the railroad
serves.

START MOVEMENT TO, 4
CREATE TAX DEPT

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct "A move
through the passage of bill
during the extraordinary session of
the Georgia General Assembly is
underway, it was learned at the
capitol today.
Students of the tax question arc
practically agreed that this step
would be the most practical in he
direction of reducing the so-callei
tax burden of the farmers in this
state. A few days ago, Comptrol-
ler-General William a. Wright, cal
led attention to the fact that the
states ad valorem tax rate is five
mills while the average county rate
is seventeen and one-half mills.
''Thre is a false IMPRESSION he
said, chat the state is res nsible
for this burden. when as a matter
of fact the counties are making
much larger levies than the state. "
The states ad valoremn tax rate
is limited to five mills.
Governor Walker stated he would
ike 20 see JIlS SpSCldA SoiHtkhaNS9Aoai
studying the tax question recon-
mend the limiting of county tax
rates. This would he direct step to-
wards reducing the farmers tax
burden, he said.
The commission has been making
its investigation in order to recon-
mend steps to be taken to equalize
taxes in Georgia. If the commits
sion should recommend the limit
ing of county tax rates it was point
ed out, the taxes imposed on far
mers would be reduced, and the
other proposals Of the body would
be considered in the light Of taxing
sources which are now escaping
payment of taxes.
