■ put a little nearer the amount other
; states are paying. Figures were pro-
I duced, shewing that South Carolina is
paying $132.00 a year; Mississippi;
pays $199.00; Oklahoma $300.00;“
Louisiana $:i00.00; V'irginda $32(r.00;
Tennessee $300.00; Georgia $290.00;
North Carolina $420.00; Florida $540.
* There is no sort of Reason for this
difference in the amount paid by the
states. The .state service was common
I to all the states, and can’t raise the
; question of the burden of taxation;
“ this too, is common to all.
It was shown that the veterans of;
I Greenville had adopted a resolution j
asking for an increase of the pension j
fund so as'to pay to each the sum of'
$300.00 per annum. This is a moder
