tasks at night. is for citizens to
cooperate fully in reporting Incl
dents to the police.
Regulation Suggested
County Judge William p. Hay,
now also town attorney, noted
that the teenagers and others in
volved in the hot-rodding weren' t
SO interested in speeding above
the limit, but that they make
enough noise Ito scare the wits
out of you" before they reach
the limit. He suggested a traf-
nc regulation that would extend
beyond speeding and reckless
driving be considered in order to
have something to make a case
against persons who think an
automobile is something to play
with. No action was taken. but
further study of the matter was
promised.
Treasurer James M. Fleetwood
was commended for collection of
98.l7 per cent of the total town
levy the irst full year he was in
office. That tops a record of the
previous year when the collec-
tons were 1888 per cent. Fleet
wood noted that the collections
have always been good. He cited
the fact that William j. ellis,
Jr., former treasurer and now
county commissioner Of revenue
raised the percentage of collec-
tons from about 81 per cent ten
years ago to 81 per cent when
he vacated the post. Town coun-

Bankers Statement Asks Fair
Tax, Competition Among Lenders


Executives of Farmville's three
banks today issued a joint state
ment charging the U. S. Savings
and Loan League is attempting
to confuse the issue of tax uni
formity among competing finan-
cial institutions by issuing mis-
leading statements to the Con-
gress and the press.
The joint statement said:
The so-called facts set forth in
the U. S. Leagues most recent
release are merely conjectures
on the part Of some savings and
loan officials. The terms used
such as recession, shock, chaos,
devastating impact. and so forth,
are crudely calculated to mislead
Congress and the public.
Equally as bad is the attack
on the Treasury Department.
Savings and loan association rep
resentatives were given equal
time to present their case to
Treasury group which studied the
tax status of these institutions.
Since the U. S. League did not
like the conclusions Of that study,
it has made the Treasury its
prime target.
Cite President
The U. S. Savings and Loan
League has clearly indicated that
it is at odds with the following
statement made by President
Kennedy in his recent message
to the nation.
I am certain that every
American wants to pay his fair
share fof taxes, and not leave
the burden Of defending freedom
entirely on those who bear arms.
For we have mortgaged our very
future on this defense and
we cannot fail to meet the pay
ments.
The savings and loan claim
of a substantial reduction in
home mortgage lending done by
savings and loan associations is
so greatly exaggerated as to be
insupportable Would a reason
able tax on an industry which
has total assets of $71.5 billion
impair its ability to extend mort
gage credit? We hardly think
so.
The bankers pointed out also
that between 1852 and 1859, in
sured commercial banks paid
more than Sc, 700, COO 900 in fed
eral income taxes or an annual
average Of SO per cent Of net in
come. This contrasts with less
than $40 100000 of income taxes
paid by Federal Home Loan Bank
Board member savings and loan
associations during this period or
an annual average Of Ia per cent
of net income.
Tax Figures
In 1859, the latest year for
which figures are available, they
paid less than one per cent of
net income in taxes, while COM
mercial banks paid almost 80 per
cent In that year, the federal in
come tax paid by commercial
banks was l55 times that paid by
the savings and loan associations.
The average commercial bank
pays more than 100 times as
much tax as the average savings
and loan association in 81 states
and the District of Columbia. and
more than 20 times as much in
IA additional states.
The average tax reported on
