Almost every day J see some good articles on the tax situation, and all ?tho writers agree tfhat something has to he done to relieve the heavy burden which ia on us, buH no one haa said what tho something is. Now I want to add my testimony llhat we ought to have some relief, and ?tute Something that ought to help. In my buBlnese life, when I find .that my expenses are exceeding my income, and J know that I must keep going, . I either increase ray income or decreaso my expenses. I think that all have failed to keep up our incomes, yet we have tried every thing that has been suggested. " .l?ir<3t, wo were , told that ^ cotton grader liv eVoiry community would help; then the export corporator we paid out a -considerable sum of money on that; then the War Fi ance corporator-we have that and we still seo that cotton is gqing down and all other farm produce going on down. We aeo bankrupt notices every day-farmers, mer chants and banks failing to stand 'he stiirtin. We mus? aee if we can find some way of reducing our ex penses. The tiret tDiing that I would sug gest is that we cut salaries and wages t? pre-war figures. 1 think that with tho help of *he efficient demonstrators walch we have 'had in thia county now tor several years, that wo farmers and on-* wives and our daughters should have learned how to manago our atfiairs, and iwo could give them a vacation. If we would all quit buying whdskey, 'we could relieve the county police. i\Vo might hint to the highway de partment that they could afford a cut from top to bottom. Nobody ob jected when salaries and wages went up with the cotton prices, and now whon they are asked to reduce they should not squeal. As my o14 friend, Jake Cook,* Soys, "The war is over now, ?and we 'mould alli take our losses and go i work to try to reconstruot our county, our State ami our nation. iLike winning the War, it will take all of us, and Mi o sooner we start .thc he titer. We are standing still or we aro going backwards. I realize that I might have burst a -bomlb shell in the camps, but we are burst now M we would own up to it." If there ls any other citizens In tho county who think as I do, Jet them say so-and more-and wo might start something that would ?help a littlo. Respectfully, 1 J. J. Ballonger. Seneca, S.
