URGES MERCHANTS
TO RETURN BI-ANKS.
Is Authorized tQ Act to Summon
Witness and Call for Records,
Books and Other Documents.
Judging from the temper of the
South Carolina tax commission, no
encouragement to delay on the part
of merchants in returning their stock
statements will be given and it seems
to be the intent of the commission to
use every lawful means to secure the
ctafompnts
Some three weeks ago the tax commission
mailed out to merchants over
the state a blank stock statement
which ihe merchant was requested to
fill in and return. The statement was
prepared under the acts of 1915,
Statute No! 99, which requires individuals,
partnerships, companies and
corporations to furnish information!
concerning their capital, bonded and
other debts, current assets and liabilities,
value of property, earnings, operating
and other expenses and other
information which may be needful
for the commission to ascertain the
value and relative tax burden borne
by all kinds of property in the state.
When the tax commission saw that
some merchants were apparently giv- j
ing little heed to the blank stock
statement, a letter was sent out call-1
ing the merchants' attention to the
fact that the sta.ement had not been
returned and inclosing a second blank
for the convenience of the merchant.
The second letter closes with the following
significant paragraph:
''This commission will insist upon
your complying with the above request,
and expresses the hope that
you will comply at once and thereby
relieve the commission of following
up this matter further, as well as relieving
you of any unnecessary expense
or inconvenience that may attend
your failure to comply."
Subvisions 6 and 7 of Section 8 of
the act creating the tax commission
gives the commission authority "to
require individuals, partnerships,
companies, associations and corporations
to furnish information concerning
their capital, bonded or other
debts, current assets and liabilities,
value of property earnings, operating
and other expenses, taxes and other
facts which may be needful for the
commission t0 ascertain the value
and relative tax burden borne by all
kinds of property in the state,'? and
to summon witnesses to appear and
give testimony and to produce records,
books, papers and documents relating
to any matters which the com
mission snail nave aumoruy 10 investigate
or determine."
It is readily seen that the enforcement
of the second of these two subdivisions
would entail no little inconvenience
and expense on merchants
who have failed to fill in and return
the blanks sent them.
Sales Built by Labor Hall.
Why not have a "Labor Hall" in
leach city?
j In Albany, N. Y., where the young
bookbinder, James J. Madigan, made
such a huge success of War Savings
Stamps last year, an election booth in
the downtown district was kept open
from early in the morning until late
at night. Sometimes as much as $2,200
worth of Thrift and War Savings
Stamps were sold in one day
Every Saturday n.'rht a "stunts"
committee drew a crowd with a program,
generally including music,
which never failed to respond with
purchases.
During the week a committee of
[women were in charge of the booth,
I their enerev and faithfulness being
! unmistakably recorded by tbeir re{suits.
' The year's expense for the booth
was some $110, which was donated
by various members of the labor unions.

We Step Back for the Khaki Boys.
We willingly step back for the Khaki
boys,
With no regret we yield to fhem our
place!!
We fought in sixty-one from dawn to
set of sun,
But now we feel we've almost run
our race,
We willingly step back for the Khaki
boys,
Those lads who stood the fire from
German guns,
With countrymen in gray we fought
from day to day.
While they were lorced to deal with
ruihless Huns.
We willingly step back for the Khaki
Boys,
The line of blue is very thin at best,
Our places soon they'll fill?we're
marching down the hill,
The Khaki lads have hardly reached
the crest.
We willingly step back for the khaki
boys.
Those lads so keen, so wide-awake,
alive.
Though now our steps are slow, we
very surely know
They'll not forget the boys of sixtyfive.
