Instead the State property levy was reduced. • , NANCE is the man whn, as chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, found the means of adequately financing the State government and supporting its humanitarian and educational institutions, at the same time providing the wavs through which the necessary revenues could be raided without placing an additional burden on property. 1 NANCE is the rnan whv» led the fi^ht for a fair distribution of the ux harden. i THE LUXURY TAX CARROLL D. NANCE of Laurens Candidate for Governor is a tax burden which no man need pay unless he chooses. It is not a compulsory tax. The revenue it produces relieves the burden on farm lands and the homes of the people. Thre is no choice about the property t&x. It is compulsory. Nance believes that essen tials should receive primary consideration and protection, and Realizing the unprofitable condition of agriculture and that the farms and homes have been bearing a dispropor tionate share of the tax burden, took the lead in the legislature for the enactment of the luxury tax now in force and effect in South Carotina^ — Nance is the man who last winter introduced a resolution calling far an investigation of the State Bank Exam- inar. The need of such ay investigation has been strikingly revealed in the light of subseqyent developments. NANCE HAS ISSUED A CHALLENGE B. . . . > # To the critics of the Appropriation Bill which he as Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee engineer ed through the 1926 Legislature, Nance has flung the gaunlet, challenging these critics who, speaking in general ities, denounce the appropriations as extravagant and assert that large sums of money could have been saved to the taxpayers by Cutting down the amounts appropriate^, to specify where they woidd have applied the prun ing knife and to state for the information of the people what specific items they would cut. THIS CHALLENGE HAS REMAINED UNANSWERED It is easy enough to criticize, but only constructive criticism is of any value to the people. Th* challenge is renewed. Those who denounce should be willing to specify. As Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee of the House and as such charged with the responsibility of providing for the support of the State's institutions and for adequate maintenance of the State government, Carroll D' Nance discharged his responsibility fearlessly, and impartially, at the saine time standing flatfnot edly for a distribution of the tax burden which, ins|pad of working hardship upon the terms and homes of the people, made possible an actual reduction of the State property tax. * Such is the record of the men. If his critics have any constructive criticism to offer—Let Them SPECIFY. . NANCE THE > MAN ' FOR * » *»
