1'TAXESNOT RAISED

Changing the charter proposed will not
of itself increase taxes, neither will the COM
lnissoners of their volition have the right to
do so, for this reason:
Under the charter, if amended, the rate for
general purposes in event exceed $125
per $4,000 valuation This limit has already
been reached; the commissioners may themselves
reduce this rate, but cannot increase it. The re-
naming S1.00 Ghe now) can be used
only for special purposes meaning interest and
sinking fund on the bonded debt The bonded
debt cannot be increased except by vote of the
property tax paying voters first had. Therefore,
unless tax payers vote to increase the bonded
debt, the tax rate for special purposes cannot
be increased.
In other words, it is up to the tax payers
themselves to say whether taxes are made high
er or not. If the charter is amended, the effect
will only be to allow tax paying voters to issue
sufficient bonds for public improvements AS it
now is, they have not the power to do so.

Self-Inflicted Shot
Fatal to Farmer
In Stewart County

AMERICAS, Ga, March 81
Alex Ponder, a prominent farmer, OF
Stewart county, killed himself by
shooting at his home, near Rich
land Monday.
He had been in i'll health during
some time past, and this condition
is believed to have precipitated the
suicide. He lived only an hour aft
or firing the fatal shot and made
no statement.
Ponder, who was about forty-five
years of age, had large interests,
owning considerable bank stock, in
addition to agricultural lands, and
he is said to have worried recently
because of disordered finances.
He was a native of Stewart coun-
ty, and a member Of one of the old
est and most prominent families l:v-
ing at Richland.
Ponder is survived by a daugh-
ter. Miss Carrie Frances Ponder, o.
Richland, and a son, Ephie Ponder,
IS, who lives in Mississippi, and
who has been notified Of his fathers
death. Funeral exercises over the
body were held Tuesday at Rich
land. and interment was in the
cemetery at that place

Here is another installment of the
report Of Frank G. Carpenter, the
eminent correspondent, on the CO.
operative associations, which have
made the farmers of Denmark the
most prosperous in the world:
Cooperation. such as is found
mere in Denmark, requires a
high degree of education. The
Danes are better schooled than
any other people in Europe. In
deed, there are only two in a
thousand of them who cannot
read and write. This is a better
showing than in England, Ger
many, France or Switzerland.
and much better than in the
United States. where we have
seventy.seven in every thousand
who are illiterate.
The Danish farmer is a good
farmer because he has studied
the branches that affect the eX-
pert production Of the things he
sells. In the words Of Pope, he
holds the Eel Of Science by the
tail" and makes It work for
him.

This statement, which directly
refutes representations made by So
licitors, who, it is understood, have
collected about $4,000 from mem
bers Of the New York Cotton ex-
change and who are still soliciting
contributions from this source, is
made by DIR. J. L. Webb, acting

Department of Agriculture.
DIR. Webb said that an informal
understanding had been reached
with DR.. Miller Reese Hutchinson
before his split with the American
Cotton association to the effect that
the department of agriculture would
cooperate with him in his campaign.
The department has not been ap-
preached by any other representa-
tive of the American Cotton aSsOci-
alton, and even the understanding
with Dr. Hutchinson was "informal'
and was more of an indicative ma
ture than a positive agreement
Or. Webb indicated, however, in
an interview with a representative
Of the Journal of Commerce, that
the department thinks very highly
of DR. Hutchinson, and will continue
to cooperate with him in spite of
! the severance of his connection with
the American Cotton association
DR.. Webb stated that insofar as he
| knew, any funds that were collect

/ on the basis that they were to be
used by DIR. Hutchinson as head OF
the organization of which he was

Assistant Secretary of Agri-
culture Writes Dr., HUtChi-
Son-Dr, Webb Also Makes
Statement

NEW YORK, March 12.-Emphat.
ic reputation has been made by the
United States department of agri-
culture Of the general impression
that funds collected by the Ameri-
can Cotton association were to be
utilized with the cooperation of, or
under the direction of, government
authority in carrying on the fight
against the boil weevil,
This information was contained in
letter received in this city Mon
day by DIR. Miller Reese Hutchinson,
president and managing director of
the national campaign for boil
weevil control, from G. w. Pugsley.
acting secretary of agriculture. This
letter deals only with funds solicited
by the American Cotton association,
President Harding himself having
pledged to DR.. Hutchinson personally
full government cooperation in the
program as set forth by the cam
paign for boil weeVil control.
"I find that there is no agreement
with the American Cotton associa-
ton involving the cooperative use
of any department or association
y
wrote II find further that there
was no formal cooperation between
this department and the American
Cotton association in regard to the
Atlanta meeting. DR.. Hunter, an
employee of the department, was
presen. at the meeting, at your re-
quest, to explain the history Of the
departments investigation OF the
weevil."
1t was explained by Mr.. Pugsley
that he was acting for Secretary
Wallace, who had left Washington.
Still further denial Of government
, cooperation in the American Cotton
associations solicitation for funds
is disclosed in Mondays edition of
