ABOUT TAXES
*
As the session of the general as?pmbiv
is close at hand, and as we
are now in the midst of taxpaying
time the minds of many throughout
the state are turned toward the subject
of taxation. To a great number
of people taxes this year are high because
they are without the means to
. pay them, and they are turning anxious
eyes to the next general assembly
in the hope that conditions can be improved*
When it comes to tax re'.form
in South Carolina there are twc
} schools of thought?one which be^
lieves that the way to reduce taxes i?
to abolish what they are pleased to
call useless offices, boards and com\
missions, carrying with them a horde
of clerical help who are more or less
parasites on the body politic; the
other side taking the * view that in
the mpin the state's business is economically
and well managed by a
corps of * people who are far from
overpaid for the services rendered.
.< These latter admit glaring inequalities
in the tax burdens, but believe
that the trouble arises mainly from
an archaic system of levying taxes,
which while bearing hardly upon
those least able to pay, still fails to
reftre revenue sufficient to allow
South Carolina to take its deserved
place in the family of states.
The first school of thought points
/ to the ever increasing appropriations
.by the legislature, losing all sight of
the purpose for which these appropriations
are used, and accounting the
state's tax bill as the entire burden
of taxation. Let us see wherein they
are right, or wrong.
The state levy this year is 12 mills.
There are two school districts in Lexington
county this year which have
special levies of 34 and 36 mills, or
practically three times the amount
paid for state taxes. There are eight
others which have special levies as
large as the state tax. In every school
district in this county there is a special
. levy, the average special levy
. being slightly more than 7 mills. The
entire county and state" levy for this
county is 30 mills, exclusive of special
levies. So that we find the average
levy in the school districts of Lexington
county is 37 mills, of which
; the state's portion constitutes 12 mills,
or slightly less than one-third. Let it
not be forgotten also that last year
almost half of what this county paid
to the state government was returned
to us in the form of aid for the rural
schools. The entire abolition of the
state taxes would leave some people
with a tax burden. Let it not be forgotten
too that the special levies were
voted on by the people themselves.
' And we are proud that they are willing
to vote money for the education of
their children. We are suffering today
from ignorance because those who
preceded us did not have the courage
to dig deep in their pockets for
education. But there is a new spirit
abroad in^the land, and the people,
no matter how hardly they complain
of taxes, are going to be unwilling to
turn back in the program of education
which within the past few yearshas
taken a firm hold.
/\jjf
But we started out to say some.
thing about state taxes primarily and
to call attention to a summary of
the state's expenditures for the current
year, as^shown.by a statement compiled
by the State Tax Commission,
and published elsewhere. The first
v '
.... j, item in this statement shows a little
less-than 5 per cent, of the total appropriated
at the last session was for
'salaries "of all state officers, boards
and commissions, not including the
'm ' /
judiciary. In other words a levy of
about three-fourths of a mill would
be adequate for this charge. So far
as lowering taxes Is concerned if the
state government were stripped to the
outline provided by the constitution
the reduction in taxes would be immaterial
should the expenditures for education,
pensions, penal and charitable
4
J
institutions be kept at the present
rate. . .
A little further analysis of the tax
commission's statement shows that
the largest single item was for the
i public schpftls anil that this, added
I to the appropriations for higher
learning, makes a total of practically
4 7 i>er cent, of the whole appropria,
tion bill. Another 30 per cent, in
j round numbers went for the support
of penal and charitable institutions,
I public health and Confederate pen|
sions, leaving IS per cent, to take
care of all other activities, including
the salaries of court officials, auditors
and treasurers, interest on the public
debt and other items This is a program
in which the whole people
share. As a matter of fact, aside
from the protection cf property, the
poor are the greatest beneficiaries of
the present system. It is not hard
for anyone to call to mind some man
who has several children in schoo'
who is paying for all purposes of government
only a very few dollars.
Compare this with a case which came
under the writer's observation some
30 odd years ago, when a woman who
i earned her money with a needle paid
each year $225.00 for the tuition ol
her children. Thirty years ago
taxes were low in South Carolina. Do
we want to go back 30 or more years?
But with something like a million
and a half dollars in tax executions
in the hands of the sheriffs of
this state for 1920 taxes still uncollected
and the 1921 dues being withheld
by many people because of inability
to pay, it would seem that the
legislature must find a way to lower
the taxes. The Tax Commission proposes
a method by which the state
could be adequately supported by revI
vniouri v?\- fho "nninlpss extrac
CUUC i a&o^u Kfj
tion" method, and the levy for state
purposes abolished. Undoubtedly
some of the measures proposed by the
.tax commission are in line with the
best modern practice, and all of them
will bear close investigation by out
"best minds." On*? thing is certain,
Ve shall arrive at improvement only
by calm discussion and not by grumbJing,
mud-slinging and blind destruction
of governmental agencies.
If we continue to progress as a
state by providing better school facilities,
better roads and humane treatment
of society's unfortunate?the
poor and helpless?it will require
money, which must be raised in somi
manner. We must find the way to
raise money in the least troublesomeway
or lapse into a still more deplorable
condition of ignorance.
Next year is campaign year. The
kind of men we send to the legislature
will determine the kind of tax
reform we will secure. For, under
our constitution, it is the legislature
that regulates tax matters. The present
general assembly will have a good
opportunity to perform a real service
by starting the ball rolling for
* ~ X11+ tVin mncHtutirtn must
L(IA X C1U1 HI, UUV VliV -
of necessity be changed before real
progress can be had. It will require
a good deal of educational campaigning
to secure the change, but the results
will be worth while.
The levy for state purposes can be
cut by a considerable sum if proper
economy be used, but even should
three or four mills be taken from the
state's bill, and it is not too much to
hope that such may be the case, there
will still remain for this county?and
it is one of the most fortunate in the
state?an average levy of some 33 or
34 mills for all purposes.

Color Scheme.
When the wife of Joe Betts, an Alabama
darky, died he mourned her
sincerely. "I'se going to put a black
border to my house^" he said. And
he did. A week later a broad band
of black outlined the front of his
little dwelling.
A couple of years passed. Then
one of his neighbors, stopping to speak
to Joe, found him gazing up at his
little black-edged house with an air
of perplexity,
j "It lasts well, Joe," said the neighbor,
in a tone of sympathy, "but the
black grows a little rusty. You will
put on another coat?"
"Yessuh," said Joe. "Daisy Moore,
she says it needs another coat.
"Daisy Moore! But has she said
black paint, Joe?"
"Uh!" grunted Joe, and then his
look of perplexity vanished in a slow
grin. "1'se going to ask her tonight^"
he replied briskly.
Two. days later the sympathetic
neighbor, passing again, was greeted
by Joe from a ladder set against the
| au ucu
"How (loos yo' like it?" lie asked
waving his paint brush toward the
band of bright red glowing across the
top of the little house. ''Daisy Moore
she pitted it out. We git married

For You
(By H. E. Harman)
Each spring comes back with its
brighter skies
That shelter the vale with a deeper
blue,
But they bring not back your tender
eyes,
Nor the love of you.
Noon walks the vale like a mystical
king
Where the wild, sweet blossoms plead
and woo,
But alas! I miss this one sweet
thing?
Just the sight of you.
The white shore, sanded and wavewrapped,
lies
Where once there echoed the steps
of two;
*
. Today but the phantoms of hope
iia&K;
As I pray for you.
i 4*k.
IThe night bird calls to its nestling
own
From yonder fragrant pine and yew,
Wh^e I stretch my arms in grief,
alone,
For the arms of you.
