TUESDAY, JANUARY 24, 1922. ~
. LEGISLATIVE NOTES.
the second' week of the >1922
session- of the General Assembly
ended. Friday afternoon. Thus
far there have been a number of
* uocallcd revenue measures passed
by the house and sent to the senate,
but the greater part of the
time of the house has been devoted
to bills affecting the govern
infiii ui u iiuiuuer 01 couuues.
What the fate <of the revenue
measures will be in the senate Remains
to be seen, but one is on
safe ground in guessing that thej
will not be "railroaded'.'through
that body with the celerity that
marked their passage through the
house. Take the socalled income
tax bill sh illustrative of the easy
sailing all the bills labeled "new
source of revenue" had in the
house. The bill, covering nearly
60 pages of typewritten matter,
was presented to the ways and
means committee, after it hail
been prepared by the "experts"
from the North employed by the
"efficiency and economy committee"
to tell the Legislature how
to run the business of the people
of South (Jarolina?inciden tally,
at a cost of some $15,000. After
the bill had been discussed in the
committee for a few minutes and
its unsuspected virtues pointed
out by the "experts," a member
of the committee moved that it
be printed for the information of
the committee, explaining that
. the cost of the printing would
he no more than the actuui cost
of the presswork and paper, as
the type would be held for the
copies of the bill to be printed
later for the house. In behalf of
the motion to print the bill it was
stated that no tpember of the
committee could absorb its m*ny
provisions by simply listening to
the clerk read it and that the
only way the members could get
an intelligent conception of its
contents was to have it put to
press for the benefit of the committee.
The chairman of the committee
said he saw no reason for
having the bill printed, that it
followed closely the provisions of
the federal income tax law. with
which everyone was more or less
familiar, he felt sure. The motion
tc have the bill printed prevailed, i
but a day or two later it was re- i
ported favorably and then rushed !
through the house faster than the
"Century Limited" travels be-j
tween New York and Chicago.
Physically, Representative Sam
Sherard ol Greenwood county is
the smallest member of the Legislature:
he weight less than 90
pounds and is a little short of
live feet in height. But Sherard V
boyish physique ends where his
head begins and there is more
activity above his ears than there
is above- the ears of the average
member. When things do not go
to suit Sherard, and that hapDCIIK
lre?l?l#*nt lv llw in lint Kuah.
ml about taying bo. For several
years he wus in the government
service .in the Philippines unci
while he was living in the Far
East he spent some tune in Japan,
of whose people he has a poor
opinion. 'Asked a few days ago
whdi be thought of the Japanese.
Hheraril replied that they were
smart and shrewd, but the most
vicious, depraved, threacherous
people on the face of the globe.
Any form of morality, he said,
is loreign to that country. "If a
Japanese gets behind in the payment
ot his taxes and he has any
daughters, the law of the country i
provides that he deliver his!
daughters to the government for
whatever purpose the government
sees fit to use thein. When they
have made euough money to pay
jheir father's taxes, they are returned
to hin>. One thing is eertiiiu
to .my mindv if the t'uucasian
race is civilized, the Japanese are
not, fr.id if tne Japanoe are;
. tiviliscd.ue are not."
In recent years the York mem benr
in the house have introdneed
few bills, their view evidently
being that the State already
has about all the law it
need*. An exception to the rule
was noted last week, however, in
a joint resolution introduced by,
Mr, .Bradford proposing to amend
the section of the constitution
which says that the public printing
must be done "on contract."
The resolution baa been favorably
reported by the judiciary com* ;
best short w??y* oh >4 Washington
wi Soldier." < The contest is
arousing much interest <amon?
the pupils of the various schools
and the teachers* are cooperating
wholeheartedly with the' bank
officials to make it a success. No
essay of more than 40u words
will be accepted' in the contest,
which is to close on Februray 22,
Washington's birthday. The number
of pupils-whomay enter the.
contest from each of the- .ichaols
is to be determined by the principal.
When the essays are received
by ihe judges, yet to be selected,
each will be numbered as the
only means of identification.
For the best essay of the hundreds
that are expected to be entered
in the. contest, the bank is
offerings prize of $5, with an additional
prize of. $2 for the best
essay from each school. "The pupil
awarded the $5 prize, however,
will be debarred from eorapet*
ing lor the $2 prize offered his or
her school. One of the rules of
the contest provides that the essay
must be composed and written
by the pupil without assistance.
In the Fort Mill and PineIville
schools the contestants are
limited to high school students.
The contest was inaugurated a
few days ago by W. T. Barron,
cashier of the First National
bank, who visited the following
schools and after explaining the
purposes of the contest received
[assurances from both pupils and
teachers that each of the schools
would participate in the contest:
Piiievilie, Carolina, academy, Barberville,
Pleasant Valley, Belair,
Osceola, Massey's, F'ort Mill, Gold
Hill, Flint Hill. Sutton's. Marvin
and Observer.
To each of these schools Mr.
Barron nresenled a hpHiitifnl art
calendar recently issued by the
bank. The calendar depicts Washington
landing in New York to
take the oath of office as president.
