SEN. THOMAS
FOR TAX SHIFT

Revision of the District of Co
lumbia realty tax system to permit
assessments on a so per cent basis
rather than the 100 per cent basis
as at present and to double the
current rate of $3.50 was advo-
Gated today by Senator Elmer
Thomas of Oklahoma as means
Of overcoming congressional
apathy to local fiscal plight.
Senator Thomas, who is chair
man of the Senate District Appro-
priations subcommittee, pointed
out that such revision, it recon-
mended by the District Commis-
sioners, would be the simplest
method Of offSetting miSinforma-
ton on the true status of the city
From a superficial comparison
Of the $3.50 Washington rate with
the 50 and SO rates prevailing in
other States, Senator Thomas eX-
planned, many persons reach the
conclusion that this city is under
taxed rather than overtaXed.
The fact that in other States
property is assessed on Is or so
per cent valuation basis is over
looked by such criticism. he added.

COMMENTS BY MIR. CHAVASSE.
To the Editor:
When I received my copy of the
Henderson Daily Dispatch last week
1 thought they had sent me copy of
the Sunday edition of the New York
Times, it was quite bit of paper and
the owners deserve lot of credit for
it, cannot say much for the photos in
it, didn't do the gentlemen credit,
Captain w. AS was O. k, but I reck-
on that was taken about 40 years ago,
seems like I have been seeing that
same one for that many years.
Well! I see that you are going to
have a big tobacco opening up there
next Thursday, that's fine, hope every
body will be pleased with the prices,
but I doubt it, its mighty hard to
please everybody, even President
Roosevelt can't do that. Prices down
here have been very satisfactory so
far, we have sold lot OF tobacco
from up the country and it is still
coming from the east, so guess our
prices are better, we figure that we
still have so per cent of the local to-
bacco yet to sell.
Have been all the way from Hen
derson to Myrtle and the Wilmington
Beaches travelling through numerous
towns and cities, crossing numerous
railroad tracks, but / never struck
any railroad crossings as rough as
those we are afflicted with in Hender-
son, they are terrible, reckon the S. A.
l.. and Mr.. Windy" Vaughan think
the people who drive cars don't need
smooth crossings, now that we have
the underpass, they ought to be made
to fix them.
This is one of the prettiest towns in
the State, bar none. I'll bet they have
more handsome homes than any town
in the State twice it's size and it is
growing to beat the band, ninety new
homes were built here last year, all
within the corporate limits; the tree
club of Henderson should come down
here and see the trees that line the
streets, they are beautiful and most
every kind you can think of, the yards
are filled with shrubs and flowers,
they take pride in their trees and
shrubs, woe to the electric or ele-
phone company that mutilates a tree
to make way for a wire, so different
from Henderson. My one objection,
they still cook their black peas with
the hulls on, can't get used to them
that way, think I'll write a letter to
the "Robersonian" about it.
Hows your water, these days? 1t
was still rotten last time 1 was up
there, although theTwater was high
enough to almost wash away the dam,
they first said it was rotten because
the water was low, what do they say
now? too high 1 reckon, I still think
the trouble is in the pumping station,
you need chemist down there all the
time, you also did lad job when you
let them put the water works in poll
tics, take it out.
There's no ABC store here, but YOU
can drive 20 miles to Lake View, S. c.,
4 little place of about a dozen stores
and four liquor stores, it's higher
though than ours and no better.
By the way, how much has our ABC
store reduced your taxes? they told
US. it would when we were getting
ready to vote, what have they done
with the profits anyway?
Well, reckon I better stop before I
say something that might make some
body mad. Hope this will find you all
well, Il am.

ONCE Upon SEPT. 14th

What men fear most about death,
is that it will erase all memory OF
them.
Onlv a few are immortalized by
their handiwork. A place can be es-
tablished in history's pages by some
by an opportune bequest or endow-
ment. Like James Smithson's, for
example, which set up Smithsonian
Institution. Carnegie, Sage and 9TH
ers wera not selfless in setting up the
founda lons that bear their names.
If ever two men purchased fame
cheaply, they were Rev. John Harvard
and Eli Yale, whose names are borne
by our most distinguished universities.
Rev. Harvard, 31-year-old son of a
butcher, died Sept. IA, 1888, of tuber-
CT osis, less than year after he
came to the colony from England. He
school in Newtown Cambridge, his
library of 260 volumes and the then
equivalent of $4,000, and caused the
college to be named for him.
y similarly opportune gift of the
then equivalent of about $4,000, won
enduring renown for Elihu (not ElD
Yale. In May iii, one jeremiah

INDIAN OPPOSITION
, MAY BLOCK HIGHWAY
I'm the Sir Walter Hotel.
Daily DiSDatch Bureau,


Raleigh, Sept. 14-Opposition OF
many, perhaps a majority, of the Cher
okee Indians to a proposed swap of
land with the United States govern
ment looms as a serious threat to the
Blue Ridge Parkway through the
North Carolina section of Smoky
Mountain National Park
Reports from visitors to the Chero-
kee reservation indicate that there is
vigorous opposition among the Indians
to the plan whereby the redskins
would trade a right of way through
their farm lands along Soco Creek for
$1,000 acres of valley land now own
ed by the federal governments park
way service.
A bill passed at the late session of
Congress, introduced by Representa-
tive Zeb Weaver, authorized the tribal
council of the Cherokees to call an
election among the tribe to vote upon
the proposition. It was expected that
the Indians would approve and that
thereby the right of way for the
Blue Ridge Parkway would be assur-
ed. Now there are many indications
that an election, if held would go
heavily against trading the right Of
way, although such a defeat would
obviously be to the financial disad-
'antage Of the tribe, which would lose
very valuable land offered them in
exchange for the right of way as well
IS the big revenues which would nat
urally come to them from thousands
If tourists passing through
Should the election be held and the
