industries along by their side and
exempt them from taxes.
This is an ancient and anti
quated position, based on the
strict principle of competition,
that if you can’t have all of the
] e you don’t want the other fel
w to have any.
Competition Question,
lie question of competition,
where one manufacturer does not
, scant another to occupy a site by
Ills side or near him is now rel
egated to the rear and has be
come obsolete. Now in this day
when our transportation systems
by rail, water and highway have
become so safe, fast and efficient,
'the manufacturer in New England
is just as serious a competitor
of the Georgia manufacturer as
if his plant was located beside
him. As an example, the flour
mills in Minnesota are selling
* flour delivered in Georgia aa
cheap as the mills in Georgia can
sell and deliver to the same buy
er. That which now concerns the
present day manufacturer is not
the matter of site so much, nor of
competition in getting to the mar
kets, but rather the question of
economic production, such as la
bor, power, raw material, taxes
and such things as enter into pro
duction costs. The ratification of
thls amendment will at least help
to make manufacturing condi
tions more attractive to new cap
ital.
The experience of big business
is that the greater success is
made by proceeding along the
lines of co-operation rather than
those of petty competition. The
purpose of the exemption for five
years is to give the new plant an
opportunity to build up its insti
tution and get it going on a suc
cessful basis before taxing it lo
cally, then after this period, when
it has created a substantial vol
ume of values -it will bear its
share of the taxes.
This is a decided advantage to
the old manufacturer, who is now
bearing the heavy burden of lo
cal taxes, as it is claimed, because
after five years he will have an
established institution aa his
neighbor with a fixed valuation
which will forever thereafter help
him carry the heavy burden, In
fact, the increased wealth so ac
cumulated by the new industry
might far exceed the value of the
old manufacturer and would,
therefore, carry more of the bur
den than he is now carrying. If
the old manufacturer is burden
ed now with his taxes, surely he
would f§yor the incoming of more
taxable va!u#9 to help bear the
same burden he is now parrying.
?uen, too, the law will help the
old manufacturer in that it will
exempt for five years any en
togimfeht ha ffiay 1 dfeslre to make
Vb his plant, and thereby enable
him to expand his operations and
increase his output.
Specifies Articles.
Again, it is urged that this
law -will exempt innumerable
manufacturing plants as ice fac
tories, medical laboratories, and
divers other kindred manufactur
ers that are springing up in va
rious sections of Georgia; This
is an erroneous idea as the pro
posed amendment distinctly spe
cifies the manufacturer of cotton,
wool, linen, silk, rubber, clay,
wood, metal, metallic on non
metallic minerals, creamery or
cheese plant, and the production
or development of electricity. It
will clearly be seen therefore that
the purpose of the law is to e"
courage and stimulate the w«hj
facturer of the raw material
found and made in Georgia and
turn Georgia’s wonderful re
sources into a merchantable com
modity, thereby increasing the
wealth, happiness and prosperity
of her people.
■.)
Again, it is urged that the en
actment of this law will not in
fact be any advantage in bringing
new industries to the state nor
would be the turning point in
bringing to Georgia, or driving
out of Georgia, a new industry
proposed for the state.
Who is it in Georgia, I pray,
can speak with authority in enun
ciating suc£ a conclusion? Cap
ital and men of conservative bus
iness have a why of thinking
for themselves; they consider well
and wisely their plans before ex
ecuting them; they study condi
tions and environs and give se
rious thought to the attitude of
the people in the locality in
their Investments.
•which they contemplate making
May Be Turning Point.
Who can say but that thia ex
■ _ nm r nT _ „ .^ ,
emption , might not be the turn
ing point in favor of any Geor
gia county, city or town.
Certainly It ean do no harm
and it may prove to be a decided
advantage.

can
always count upon new thrills and some surprises.
He also chuckles over the way in which the author
leads him to think that plot and characters are
going to develop along certain lines when in reality
they are bound for entirely different paths. In “The sornP
Evil Shepherd” there are thrills galore and
entirely unexpected developments, but we are not
going to spoil the pleasure of your reading by tell
ing you what they are. We shall reveal only the fact
that it is not a detective story. It is something more
real, logical and enjoyable; in fact, the author seems
to be laughing at detectives, both professional and
amateurs and you will laugh with him. Generally to
get an Oppenheim story, you have to buy the book.
