TERM & “Taxation That Deatroya.' “The power to tax is the power to destroy.” Some of the measures dia- cu*sed and sume that have been pars ed by more than on e legi-latur° in recent months exhibit a determined disiegaid of the effect of the power they hold. The cry of politicians fir more taxes should not be permitted to cripple important industries in the Southern States nor to discourage others from locating in the South. The needs of the times may require increasing receipts on the part of States and municipalities to meet mounting expenses. But the same needs require more economical bud gets. The program of expenditures fo r local government has in some in stances gone beyond, anything of the past. Instead of efforts apparently being made to economize, the insistent demand ig for more taxes. Unfortun ately, the move is being directed by politicians against industry, which is the true creator of wealth. Any proper scheme of taxation must be applied with justice and not again-t particular interests. Indus try needs encouragement, especially during a period of depression. If its reasonable profits ate taken away it cannot live. It should be encouraged fo r selfish teasons if not otherwise, because of the wealth* it creates in the community. ( There is a rT\oral^ obiigatiotL^be-. sides, so far as the South is concern-! ed, and this is sometimes overlooked Manufacturers have been invited to locate in the South. They have been asked to help in the development of resources which, under proper guid- • ance, will make the Southern States ; greater than any similar area in this | or any other country. The South is more than a potential asset to the Unitq^States. It is an actual developing asset. It will be a pity if, because of legislative ex tremes, this source of wealth creation is stopped and diverted elsewhere. The press of the ^outh will do a service by calling ► attention to a courtse that has nothing constructive about it, but tends to destruction.— .
