TAXPAYERS LOAD
! HIT BY REYNOLDS
Says U. S. Should Lead in
Limiting Sources for Gov.
ernment Units.

A word picture of the daily life Of
the average "taX-ridden" American
citizen was drawn last night by Sena-
tor Reynolds, Democrat, of North Car
lima 10 illustrate his contention the
Federal Government should take the
initiative in program to establish ex-
elusive fields OF taxation for the vari-
Gus units Of government.
Reynolds spoke over the Columbia
Broadcasting System.
"A citizen lights his taxed ciga-
rette," said the Senator, waves a
morning farewell to his family with
promise to take them to taxed
movies, enters his property-taxed ga
rage, starts his taxed automobile with
taxed gasoline and leaves for his Of
flee for conference with his tax ad-
visers.
AT noon he goes to taxed reStau-
rant and joins his friends for dis
cussion of the tax situation At 4
comes a bottle of taxed beer, followed
by meal of hidden-t taxed food, the
taxed movies and tax dreams.
He should know" said the Senator,
"and when he doeS-through a broad
tax base-Mr. Citizen will have new
interest in government and it's func-
tions.
Certainly some of the taxes we levy
as Nation today have lost all SEM
blance to equity and have little, If
any, regard for ability to pay"
Discussing the Presidents budget
message delivered to Congress this
week, Reynolds said I'VE are given
timely warning that the day is fast
approaching when our system of pro-
ducing revenue must be overhauled.
Loopholes must be closed and ineaui-
ties removed. Our tax bases must be
broadened EXpediency in levying
taxes must give way to equity. We
should consider the effect of certain
forms Of taxes on business and, in
turn, on labor and on the farmer.
Il fear that much of the present
conditions, and those we have gone
through may be attributed to the way
IN which We have pyramided taxes,
Federal, State and local, without re-
gard to their effect.
Our situation today might be de-
scribed In that famous phrase which
reads:
Our Constitution is in actual op-
GRAFTON; everything appears to prom
Se that 1t will last; but in this world
nothing is certain but death and
taxes
We can, and should" REYNOLDS
concluded, change our tax system Sc
that even If taxes are certain. thev
will at least be equitable"

Governor c. Perry, delivering the
principal talk at the opening of a

Friday, expressed opposition to any
state sales tax and said Virginia
must keep it's budget balanced.
Five thousand persons from Vir-

the opening of the Carnation Milk
company's new unit. Former State
Senator John H. Folger, of Mt. Airy,
n. c., was one of the speakers.
W. c. Cross, vice president of the

Government Program
Hell Tellent Farmers

wife showing off the vegetables she
has canned on her 'boojet,' and the
little girls going off to school in
bingham dresses"
The 'boojet" is the subsistence
production and canning program
laid down for each tenant by re-
settlement field agents. And this,
Perkins said, was just part of the
work of taching these lifelong
farmers how to farm.
"When you aid winter cover
crops to them, they didn't know
what you were talking about" he
said. To raise feed for their own
mule was unheard of. Many of them
couldn't begin to raise garden. And
planning a garden to can enough
food to last through the winter was
a brand new idea.
"They thought only in terms of
cotton, the single cash crop"
That was why the agency gave
a great deal of advice about farm
planning and management and made
the taking of this advice condition
of granting loans.
'The program is to grow every
possible necessity on the farm be-
fore thinking of making nickle on
tobacco or any other cash crop,
which completely reverses the ten
ants traditional ways of working"
Perkins said.
And, he added, for those who have
learned these lessons, farm owner
ship is practicable.

Negroes Repent
Before Death
Lethal Gas Ends Lives of Wife
Slayers; 1873 Executed in
State Since 1910

Two negroes, one of whom re-
quested as he sat in the death chair
that his parents be told he had re-
pented, died Friday in the States
lethal gas chamber for wife-murder.
Warden H. H. Honeycutt said both
men-Hunter Winchester, "a, of
Guilford county, and Frey Gray, 26,
of Onslow-had confessed the crimes
and expressed readiness to die and
the belief they would be Saved"
After he was seated in the chair,
Winchester asked that his father
and mother be told he was sorry for
what he had done.
Winchester's execution was the
shortest gas killing on record here.
He was dead nine minutes and 361a
seconds after the gas machinery was
started. He entered the chamber at
20:33 and was dead at 10:45.
Warden Honeycut said the previ-
Gus shortest gas execution required
1917 minutes.
Execution of the two negroes left
10 men on death row" at Central
prison.
Winchester and Gray were the
18th and 18th men to die by gas and
they were the fourth and fifth to be
executed in the administration of
Governor Hoe Gray was the 188th
man to be put to death at Central
prison since 1910.

An average reduction of one bill

years in the national debt of $780,
O0O,O0O,000 was recommended this
week by the committee on govern
ment credit of the Twentieth Cen
fury fund, New York City.
The present session of Congress
should levy new taxes, the commit
tee asserted, if there is any doubt
that existing revenues will be insult
ficient to assure a balanced budget
in 1888.
The committee held that 1889
should see the beginning of Sub
stantial reduction" in the national
debt unless there is serious set
back" in business 1t held President
Roosevelt's tentative forecast of a
1899 surplus to retire $4OO,00O,00O
of the debt was inadequate for a

More Pigs in North

The spring pig crop in North Car
DINA is "a percent more this year

reported intentions of narrowing 10
per cent more soWs during the fall
of 1887 than in the fall of 1886, ac-
cording to the report released June
10Th by the Department of Agricul-
ture. Of all states having more than
100000 breeding sows, North Caro-
lima had decidedly the largest per-
centage increase in farrowings this
spring. While the growers in this
state greatly increased their 1887
farowings and hog-breeding inten-
tons, the country as a whole show
ed decided decrease.
The June pig crop report is based
on information secured from grow
ers by the Department of Agricul-
ture in cooperation with the Post
Office Department through the rur-
al mail carriers each year.

Bankhead Act Great
Boon to Farmers
$4,000 Are Ready to Be Placed
on Own FarmS-tO Care
for 1000 People Now
OWNERS ARE CAPITALISTS

The signing last week by
President Roosevelt of the Bank
head farm tenancy bill will put
into effect a new phase of gov
eminent relationship with one
segment of tn os VIII o m the
President has called the third
of the population that is illclad,
ill-housed, poorly fed. The fol-
lowing story is review of past
government experience in deal
ing with tenant farmers and
what officials think of their out
look.
The resettlement administration
figures that it had $4,000 tenant
farmers who have been taught the
tenets of cover crops and planned
farming and are ready to be set up
on farms of their own under the
Bankhead plan.
The $10,O0O,OOO of loans which the
measure authorizes during the first
year of it's operation will buy farms
for about 1000 of these graduates
of the resettlements rural rehabili-
tation loan program. Another $685.
100000 will be available the second
year and $50,000,000 the third, the
tenants to be given forty years in
which to repay the loans with three
per cent interest.
For nearly a year, the agency has
been experimenting with these pros
pective landowners. 1t brought IS
acre farms on which 948 selected
tenants took one-year leases with
option to buy, and which they have
been operating with resettlement
loans and rather mandatory reset
Element advice. They had to agree
to take the advice before they got
the loans.
Keynote of Program
Milo Perkins, an assistant admin
istrator Of the agency, says the adj
vice and semi-compulsory lessons
in farming has been the keynote of
the program. But the business of
graduating has been purely volun-
tary, he added. This comes about
by paying b a. k the resettlement
loans before they are due and build
ing enough credit to get operating
loans from commercial sources.
Perkins, youthful looking, one
time Texas paper manufacturer,
said of this group:
''These people have demonstrated
they deserve to have the door to
ownership opened to them.
''When they came to us during the
depression, they hadn't dime am
no one would lend them dimeSX
I'VE loaned $135,O00,0O0 to $780,
900 of them. The $4,000 have re-
paid in full"
He pulled out his file on Alabama
tenant farmers and went into de-
tail:
Resettlement loaned money to 49,
900 tenants in that state. The aver
age net worth of those tenants then
was $500. Now it is 1852. That was
his estimate.
They are Capitalists
''Why today these people are cap
italists," he said. 'They are typical
ly capitalistic and conservative in
their outlook, too.
1.-TWO or three years ago, they had
nothing but a little meal and mo-
lasses to eat, dressed their children
in fertilizer sacks and plowed cows
or steers. To a man in that shape,
possession of mule, wagon and
cook stove is capitalism.
'The change in their morale is
thrilling. 1t brings tears to 60 to one
of those homes and see the old man
blowing proud behind his mule, his
