Land Assessment
to Remain Same
W. D. Rowell, auditor of Bamberg
county, has received a letter from W.
G. Querry, chairman of the South
Carolina tax commission, in which
he is advised to allow the assessment
of lands in Bamberg county to re"
T ~ ^
main me same as nereiuiure. m accordance
with this advice, Mr. Rowell
is entering all land on the tax
books on a basis of $4.69 per acre,
the same valuation that has been in
force for some years past.
It will be recalled that Mr. Rowell
was directed some weeks ago to increase
the land assessment in this
county from $4.69 to $6.40 per acre,
an increase of approximately 36 per
cent. Although the state and county
levies had been reduced, this increase
in the assessment would have
eaten up practically all the savings
in the ta^es, so far as the land owner
was concerned, and coming at such
an inopportune time caused the au+
v>r,T,itiae. a nnfhorc intoractpri try fret
liiL/1 UUU VVJUVi KJ AMWV4 vwvvv> ww 0
busy in an attempt to have the order
rescinded.
Representative Kearse and Mr.
Rowell wrote to the tax commission
protesting vigorously against the increase
and stating strong reasons
why there should be no increase in
this county. In view of the unfavorable
reception of the increase order,
the tax commission agreed to come
to Bamberg and hold a public hearing
on the question. This hearing
was held some three weeks ago, a
full account of which has heretofore
been published in The Herald.
At this meeting citizens from all
sections of the county gave the members
of the tax commission considerable
food for thought. The commission
gave an attentive hearing and
was put into possession of facts
which were uncontrovertible, showing
that the increase would put Bam
berg county in a class of paying on
a higher assessment than any of the
surrounding counties, with the exception
of Orangeburg. The matter
was gone into in full detail, and it
was clearly shown that the order issued
by the commission was inequitable
in regard to land assessments.
The commission took the matter
under advisement and promised to
render a decision within the next
4
few following days. Hbwever, it
was not until last Friday that the
commission advised the auditor to
allow the previous assessments to
stand. Following is a copy of the
letter addressed to Mr. Rowell:
"South Carolina Tax Commission,
Columbia, July 7, 1922.
"Mr. W. D. Rowell, County Auditor,
Bamberg, S. C.
"Dear sir:?After very careful
consideration of the facts presented
to the commission and our desire to
properly equalize land values as between
different counties, we have decided
to accept the valuations as fixed
by your boards on farm lands in
vnnr r>mintv
"This is to instruct you to enter
on your duplicate the farm lands in
your county so that when you complete
your work the average value
of farm lands per acre, exclusive of
buildings, shall not be less than
$4.69;
"In behalf of the members of this
commission, I wish to thank you for
the courteous hearing at the recent
meeting in yotfr county. Yours very
truly, "S. C. TAX COMMISSION, .
"W. G. Querry, Chairman."

who is also the senator, he grabbed
him and gave him an affectionate tug
and the doctor responded in kind.
They had not laid eyes on one another
for 52 years, but the recognition
soon came mutually. The grey haired
and white beared gentleman was
none other than the doctor's cousin,
Robert Crosby, now a resident of
Bluffton, Beaufort county. He was
accompanied by Robert Black, of
Ruffin, a brother of Dr. Black.
Fifty-two years ago Dr. Black and
Robert Crosby were chums together
| in their old home community in Colleton
county. The doctor was preparing
to go away to college, and his
cousin had just got married. They
said good-bye. with the promise to
meet again in a few days. Dr. Black
went away to school, and Robert

Condition of Cotton i
Here 60 Per Cent.
According to a report just issued
by B. B. Hare, statistician of the f
bureau of agricultural economics, the t
condition of the cotton crop in Bam- 1
berg county on June 25 was 60 per e
cent., while the condition of the crop ^
on the same date last year was 63 1
per cent. The average condition in 3
South Carolina was 60 per cent., I
while it was 75 per cent, on an aver- t
age for the past ten years. The report
shows a reduction in acreage in
this state, but an increased acreage E
in the cotton belt. Only South Caro- d
lina and Georgia show a reduction in ?
acreage, all other states showing an c
increase. The condition throughout 1
the cotton belt is 71.2, compared 1
with 69.6 on the same date of last a
year, and a ten year average of 76.9. a

The Bambei-g Birth Rate. li

The boll weevil has interfered with
just about everything there is to be f
interfered with in these surround- v
ings except the birth rate. Bamberg ??
county's birth rate stands well among ^
? i - / r* xt- ri- ??
tne counties or oouni taruuua, as 0
evidenced by a statement of the bu- S(
reau of vital statistics recently is- n
sued. This statement shows the birth c
rate in this county last year was t]
32.4 per 1,000 .of population. Bam- a
berg county is the thirteenth in the tj
state in this respect. Talking about 0
the boll weevil, too, Calhoun, which p
everybody admits was pretty hard hit, t]
stands third in the state; while Hor- e
ry leads the procession, and Berke- ^
ley brings up the second place. It

Fighting Congressman
From South Carolina
The writer did not have the pleasure
of meeting Congressman James
F. Byrnes until the latter part of
1921 at the hearings before a Special
Joint Committee appointed by congress
to revise the pay schedule of
the personnel of all the military services.
However, before the hearings
had been underway many days, it
was evident mat congressman
Byrnes was one of the live members
of the committee and a gentleman
who insisted 011 getting at the bottom
of everything pertaining to the
pay of the service. When one gets
at the bottom of any subject at the
capitol, one is bound to protect the
treasury of the United States and, at
the same time, be just to those concerned
in the appropriation requested.
In the opinion of the writer, Mr.
Byrnes is an ideal congressman, as he
guards the treasury without practicing
parsimony, is fair and just in
every question before the house of
representatives and can "fight like
the very devil'' when either favoring
or opposing a bill.
It was worth a great deal to be
present in the gallery of the house
of representatives and listen to Mr.
Byrnes fight for the pay roll that re
cently passed congress and whicn
awarded all hands a satisfactory pay
per month. Shooting home points and
replying to questions put forth by
those opposing the bill, he was never
at a loss for a proper anil telling reply.
He knew his subject from A to
Z and knowing the subject counts
! heavily in winning a light in con|
gress. Put a big red mark to the
credit of Mr. Byrnes in your book of
good deeds, for without his pep and
fighting spirit, it is dnubtl'ui if the
pay bill for the military services
would have gotten by the house, especially
the final recommendations
of the conference. Furthermore,
! another big red mark tan be credited
[ to Mr. Byrnes in connection with the
j pay bill when that bill went to eon|
ference between the house and senj
ate. The writer has learned that
two of the five house conferences
I were for making a favorable report
I on the bill and two were not. That
left Mr. Byrnes with the deciding
vote and he voted for a favorable report.
We certainly mas'- hand the
palm of the "Fighting Congressman
from South Carolina" whenever he
line up at the pay window and draw
down our semi-monthly stipend.
As a Representative of the enlisted
men of the navy before congressional
committees for the past few years,
the writer naturally learned "Who
Is Who" when it comes dowu to
knowing the champions of the military
personnel. There are many
champions of the enlisted men, it is
true, but Mr. Byrnes stands out with
the best of them. To be a real champion,
one must always be on the job
and the gentleman from South Carolina
was on the job day and night.
The best part of it is that when on
the job, he was socking home points
for those men now in tne military service
and those who did their "bit"
during the recent war. To sock home
a point, one must have the attention
of the members of the house, else a
speech chuck full of good points will
be lost on those who are to vote "yes"
or "no" on the question before the
house. When Mr. Byrnes has the
floor of the house, he receives the attention
of every member present for
the simple reason that the members
J*now his speech is instructive and to
the point. /
The writer knows nothing about
the congressional district, but will
wager that when Mr. Byrnes went
after anything for the good of his
district he did not lose out.
The enlisted men in the navy and
the fleet naval reserve are indeed
grateful to Mr. Byrnes for the wonderful
work he has done for them.
In fact, any officer or man who has
ever served in any military branch
of this government can bank on Mr.
Byrnes taking an active interest, for
he has truly shown himself a friend
of those in uniform.?Chief Yeoman
