Tax Exemption of New
Industries

In the November elections
one of the Constitutional
amendments which comes up
for ratification provides for ex-
emption from taxation of new
industries coming into the State,
for a period not to exceed FIVE
years.
1t has been stated by those
favoring the adoption of this
amendment to the State Consti-
tuition that other States are ex-
empting manufacturers from
State and county taxation and
that if Georgia is to secure in
duetries. she must do likewise.
On first glance this would
seem to be favoritism and prob
ably unwise, and yet unless we
do meet the competition of 9TH
er States, Georgia cannot hope
to secure her rightful share of
industrial development. Capt.
tai will go elc>w'.tre.
If the amendment is adopted,
we will secure an increased in
dustrial development and the
pay roll incident thereto and in
vested capital that otherwise
will not be ours.
Better lose the tax income
for FIVE years, than never have
it.
North Carolina and other
States have forged rapidly to
the front because of her indus
trial development. The increas-
ed taxable values have brought
added millions into the treasury
s-of that State and to her coun-
ties.
This increased income has
made it possible for her to build
one of the greatest systems of
highways in the South; to great
ly enlarge her educational insti-
futions and today North Caro-
Ina IS preparing to build on
Underwater a great port terminal
to handle her farm products.
Georgia is forced to follow
other States along the lines of
tax exemption or fall out of line.
More. possibly. than anything
else. Georgia needs payrolls and
new capital. These will bring
greater prosperity to her bord-
ers. The State has great unde-
veloPed natural resources await
ing the necessary capital to turn
the raw product into a finished
article.
