A WONDERFUJL. ORGANIZATION
? The Red Cross Association, as
sooh as the Teports of the fearful
! storm disaster of last Wednesday
^ Reached them, and that was within a
very few hours? they were on the
ground ready to help and were help
ing right along. There is a kind of
feeling of security when disaster
comes and the Red Cross gets to
work to furnish relief, for it is cer
tain to go about it in a systematic
and efficient way. Relief work for
the storm stricken scction has been
placed in their hands. Contributions
are pouring in giving urgently need
ed relief. Not one dollar contributed
will go to pay the expenses of the
Red Cross. The national Organiza
tion will take cfire of that, and those
who contributed to the relief of the
sutfferers will know that it will all
go to their relief. The Red Cross is
a wonderful organization, and merits
the hearty endorsement of every one.
TAX EXEMPTION OF GOVERN
MENT.
In commenting on the necessity for
\ doing away with the tax-exempt bond
the Commercial Appeal of Memphis
says: - "All over the country there
has been a demand that no more tax
free bonds be issued. The reason is
plain. It is -privilege. Practically, it
invites capital to seek inactive" har
bors.
"The country grows through indus
trialism. The country is / great be
cause railroads cut all thorugh it and
because there are mines, steel mills,
lumber mills, factories, automobile
plants, furniture factories, cotton j
lfiills and packing plants.
"Now, if these industries ' issue
bonds they are taxed, and, bein#
taxed, they must pay a high rate of
interest. * The public must, therefore,
pay bigger money for the products
of these industries, because their tax
es are high.
"The public pays the taxes on so
called. untaxed bonds. The govern
ment needs money to riin. ,.ftoe hold
er of an untaxed bond pays nothing.
A producer who pays an income tax
makes up the deficit with buyers using
taxed products. .
"Under the present system certain
securities tfre escaping taxation. This
thing has cursed governments from
the beginning. It is the first strfrt
of privilege."
It is remarkable the length^ time
Congress can resist, this taix reform
which is so necessary to equalize pres
ent day tax burdens.
A GREAT ADVERTISING ISSUE
We have before us a copy of the Co
lumbus, Ga., Industrial Index, con
tainnig nearly two hunderd pages, ad
vertising that prosperous Georgia
town. It is now the home of Dr. John
A. Davidson, a former paster of the
Camden Baptist church, and his con
gretation there are engaged in erect
ing a Sunday school building at a cost
of $100,000 to take care of one of the
largest Sunday schools in the South
Wo understand that ther^are fourteen
hundred members of this Sunday
' school. There are twelve cotton mill*
there besides many other manufactur
ing enterprises. Nearly a half million
spindles are operated and they expect
to increase this number finally to one
million by 1936. The annual pay
roll of the cotton mills alone is stated
at more than $6,000,000. The milLi i
were liberal patrons of this industrial
issue of the Index, one of them, the
Meritaa Milla, ownod and operateed
by the Standard Textile Products Co.,
; of New York city, having a full page
advertisement in it, and giving a pic
ture of the mill, and making the state
ment: "we extend congratulations
to Columbus on another year of sub
stantial growth. Every building
, shown in this photograph is within the
incorporate lmits of the city. This
,1 corporation is in Columbus, and of
Columbus, and rojoices in its growth.
Began operation In 1911 with 9,900
y spindles and 70 looms. Enlarged in
1918 to 26,000 spindlea and 490
, looms. Again enlarged in 1916 to 07,
000 spindles and 1,860 looms." What
struck us particularly was the state
ment made that they wore within the
"incorporate limits," and were re*
' , ^oicin# In its growth. A splendid
spirit for a big corporation that is
making1 money to show. And the In
.. dustrial Index k to be congratulated i
dp** gottM t Out so splendid a Show
ing for Colwnbus.
