Little Rock Letter

Little Rock, March 30.-The road
situation in Arkansas threatens to be-
come acute. Editorial writers and
members of the legislature have for
some time been sounding a note Of
warning. There has been disposi-
tion on the part of some to dismiss it
as Bolshevistic or demagogic, but when
the state is being brought face to face
with conditions that can not be denied,
the people begin to consider the ques-
tiOn more seriously.
Special sessions of the legislature are
not popular. Much of the present dis
tress in many counties is due to the
special sessions of 1919 and 1920, which
created over night almost stupendous
bonded Indebtedness which is proving
An-Old- an-Of-the-Sea to the property
owners of Arkansas. The reflex from
the sessions was felt in 1923 when
partial relief came through the repeal
of scores Of districts.
Hut there are conditions that are
more Objectionable than special ses-
sions and when special session will
relieve a situation that is rapidly be
coming intolerable, is becomes not
only desirable but an actual necessity
This relief was sought through the
Raney-Williamson bill which passed
the Senate and was defeated in the
House. BY the terms of this measure
the state would have assumed the bond
ed highway Indebtedness of the var
iOus counties, issuing bonds 10 the eX-
tent of S42,5OO,OOO and pledging the
automobile and gasoline taxes for
their payment.
The bill was opposed by Governor
Terral who is not i'm favor of the state
issuing bonds for any purpose, aud his
opposition, coupled with political com
plications in the House, resulted in its
defeat.
Since the adjournment of the legis'
lature, however. conditions are rapid
ly coming TO focus that seems TO be
tending toward general public de
mand for relief through an extra SEES
sion. Should this become sufficiently
insistent, it is believed that the pres
sure win become so strong that Cover
nor Terral win be forced TO yield and
issue his call for the session.
The State Bank Commissioner says
that recent bank failures in Critten
den, Cross and Little River counties
have been due to the destruction Of

A Land OF Opportunity

Arkansas has for long years been
advertised by its newspapers, by COM
mercial organizations and other agen-
cies as a land of opportunity and many
a man with energy and intelligence
has proved that it is. A notable bit
Of proof may be found on a farm near
Bald Knob, White county, owned and
operated by Joe FreppOn.
Thirteen years ago Mr. Freppon
bought 60 acres of cutOver timber land
near Bald Knob for $3.50 per acre.
His initial cash payment was $35. The
land, though cheap, was good, and
Mr.. Freppon and his family, which
then consisted of himself, his wife and
five children, went to work to make it
a real farm. They planted and cult
| waited intelligently and they made those
acres beautiful and productive. As
they accumulated money they paid the
debt for the original tract and bought
more land The second purchase was
80 acres at 500 an acre and then some
months later so acres at $25 an, acre,
The farm now consists of 175 acres,
valued at 500 per acre. The improve
ments include a modern home, which
cost $500; electric lights, a complete
water system, garage, a barn and
other farm buildings. The 100 acres
under cultivation is fenced and cross
| fenced.
Last year Mr.. Freppon made net
cash income of S4,S95 from his farm
that was cutover land few years
ago. His strawberry crop amounted
to ], 900 crates of berries that netted
50 crate. He raised plenty Of feed
and he produced among other things,
many bushels of beans that had mar
ket value of "a per bushel. Incidental
ly, he had an acre of high grade tobac-
co.

tary and General Manager of the State
Fair at Little Rock and says:

is going to exploit Arkansas as it has
never been shown to the public before,
No one can measure the good that Ar
kansas is going to receive from this
wonderful plant and wonderful fair

there"
Mr.. Neff says of the live stock in.

Arkansas is making progress along

state Legislature passed bill apprO-
priating $4,000 to be applied to ticl;

federal work that is being done for tick
eradication. Arkansas is fully awake
to its possibilities in agriculture, live
stock, fruit and vegetable production
and its hydro-electric power potential

farmers. are being sold for taxes at
prices ridiculously low. In many in
stances the tax Is i'm excess of the mar
ket value for rental value of the lands.
In Clark county recently 1000 tracts
of land, ranging from one fourth of
an acre to 100 acres and aggregating
10000 acres was sold for highway
taxes due for 1928. In some of the
southeastern counties of the state hun
dreds of small farmers are deserting
their homes and thousands of acres will
be idle this season because the owners
are unable to pay the highway taxes.
A Little Rock citizen last week made
significant comment: "Unless some re-
lief is provided" said he, 'the people
in many counties of the state>will soon
be confronted with situation that will
be desperate and will likely result in
serious trouble. Even the state can
not take away a mans home for taxes,
particularly where he has not benefit
ted, without resentment"
The Stuttgart Arkansawyer, com.
menting on the situation says, "Arkan-
sas county, because of a reasonably
profitable crop last year, is not suffer
ing as seriously as some of her sister
counties. But this county is feeling
the pinch of high road taxes, which
have held business i'm cheek and retard-
ed natural progress. And single
crop failure would turn half our citi-
zens out of house and home, so near
the brink have our landowners been
brought"
Governor .Terral last week received
a letter from s. Il. SimOnson of Miss
issippi County who says that, "The
Williamson Raney bill would have Civ
en- in large measure the relief here
that road legislation gave to Illinois
under the Lowden administration" He
adds the significant comment 1T is
generally believed that you are princi-
pally responsible for the defeat of this
road measure. | believe you will ap-
preciate a plain statement rather than
4 pleasant sounding and misleading
statement, so will say that unless the
vital and hoped for relief comes soon
through special session you could
not in another race poll one vote in
Northeast Arkansas to where you poll
ed four formerly and possibly it would
show one to ten. We utterly fail TO
see where the passage of this bill would
be determinal to any part Of the state. y
The advocates of the state bond issue
claim that there is no reason to be
frightened by the traditional bogey
that has scared the state since its un'
fortunate experience with the bond
bandits of Reconstruction Days. They
argue that the highways are for the
use Of all the people and are not local
In their benefits, much less should the
burden of their construction and main
tenance fall upon the shoulders of the
small home owner who happens to live
near the highway; that the cost of the
roads should he bourne by those who
use them, that is the automobile own
ers. The plan proposed by the Raney
Williamson bill would have relieved
thousands of poor farmers from the ex
cessive taxes which are now threaten
ing them with bankruptcy and the Loss
! of their homes.

the members of the legislature, parti-
cularly after heavy strain and warm
