President Cool id pc Pleas
For Religious America
President Calvin Coolklge, speaking
to the National council of Congrega¬
tional churches, in session in Wash¬
ington, attributed lawlessness and
other evils as being due to a lack of
religious conviction. He plead for a
revival of the "Faith of our Fathers”
and said that the country needed
“more religion.”

to receive the benefits of the modern
state of society through hearing its
burdens, to attempt to resist all ef¬
forts to subject them to tthe neces¬
sary restraints and discipline, and to
try to tear down and destroy the re¬
sults which others have secured by
generations of constant effort.
‘What others have accumulated
through industry and self denial, they
purpose to seize and indolence to dissipate and self- and j
destroy through
indulgence without compensation to
its rightful owners.
“Lawlessness is altogether too
prevalent and a lack of respect for
government and the conventions of
enlightened socrety are altogether too
apparent. ■ •
The president declared that it is
natural to attempt to shift the blame
when evil conditions arises.
It is always easy to criticize the
government for failure to reform all
morals, to prevent all crime, ami
generally to abolish all evil,” he add
cd. “I have great faith in the local
and national governments of the Uni
led States but much of this field is
beyond their reach. They were not es¬
tablished to discharge this duty; they
are utterly unable to accomplish it.”
While law acts as a deterrent to
wrong doing, it reaches its highest ap¬
plication “only when there is a very
healthy and determined public senti
j ment in favor of the observance of the
law,” he declared.
“The utmost ingenuity on the part
of the police powers will be substan¬
tially wasted, in an effort to enforce
the law, if there does not exist a
strong and vigorous determination on
the part of the people to observe the
law. Such a determination cannot be
produced by the government, My
opinion Is that it is furnished by re¬
ligion.”
Speaking directly on radicalism, the
president said that with few excep¬
tions those “who come to us*,as ene
mies of society are so because they
have always found society enemies to
them.” -r he moral powers of religion,
he asserted, will aid greatly in secur
ing their allegiance. Teaching of teach- r^li
gion, he said, necessarily meant
ing education and government, and
furnished a needed support of the
government, without, which political
effort would be practically fruitless.
"I have tried to indicate,” he con¬
tinued, what I think the country needs
in the way of helf under present con¬
ditions. It needs more religion, ir
there are any general failures in the
enforcement of the law, it is because
there have first been general failures
in the disposition to observe the law.
I can conceieve of no adequate remedy
for the evils which beset society ex¬
cept through the influences of reli¬
gion. There is no form of education
which will not fail, there is no form
of government which will not fail. Re¬
demption must come through sacri¬
fice and sacrifice is the essence of re
ligion.
It will be of untold benefit if there
is a broader comprehension of this
principle by the public and a con
tinued preaching of this crusade by
the clergy. It is only through these
avenues by a constant renewal and ex¬
tension of our faith that we can ex^
pect to enlarge and improve the moral
and spiritual life of the nation. With¬
out that, faith all that we have of en¬
lightened civilization, cannot endure.”
v.‘ Time is money,” so says the prov¬
erb, yet lots of fools throw away
money in order to kill time.

NEW INHERITANCE TAX LAW OF
GEORGIA MORE ADVANTAGEOUS TO
PROPERTY OWNERS THAN FLORIDA’S
;
“Georgia’s inhenitanoe tax law—
the new law enacted l in the session
of the legislature this year, is more
advantageous to the property o\vner
than that of almost any other state;
more so by a great deal than the non
inheritance tax law of Florida,” said
State Commissioner James Dozier, in
an interview with The Week.
“In my judgment the provisions of
the new Georgia law ought to be ad¬
vertised to the world in comparison
with that of other states. The con¬
trolling feature of the new law in
this state provides: I
and after the of !
“From passage
this Act it shall be the duty of the
legal representative of the estate <<t
any person who may die A RESI- I
DENT OF THIS STATE, and whose j !
estate is subject to the payment of a
Federal Estate tax, to file a duplicate
of the return which he is required to
make to the Federal authorities, for
the purpose of having the estate tax
determined, with the State Tax Com¬
missioner. When such duplicates are
filed with said official, he shall com¬
pute the amount that would be due
upon said return as Federal Estate i
Tax, under the Act of Congress re
lating to the levy and collection of
Federal Estate Taxes, upon the pro
perty of said estate taxable in Geor
gia, and asstagainst said estate as
state inheritance taxes twenty-five
per centum of the amount found to be
due for Federal Estate Taxes. . . .
There shall be no other inheritance
tax assessed or collected out of es¬
tates, under the laws of this state.”
“There you are. Analyze the Act
and see just what it means, then com¬
pare it with the laws of other states,
particularly the so-called non-inheri¬
tance tax states. The analysis shows
the Georgia law is a far better one
than if the legislature of this state,
as has been done in other states,
merely had passed a law prohibiting
the levy or cellection of any inheri¬
tance tax. Here’s the reason. Take an
estate in Florida, for instance, worth
enough to have levied against it by
the Federal government as an estate
tax say $75,000. Florida has no in¬
heritance tax law of any kind, but the
Federal government levies a $75,002
estate tax, collects it and the whole
amount goes into the federal treasury,
with not one penny of benefit, so far
as that $75,000 goes, to either the es¬
tate or to the state of Florida.
“Make the same calculation in
Georgia. The same kind of estate, of
the same value, finds a Federal es¬
tate tax levied against it of $75,000.
The Federal law provides that this
.‘etc is entitled to an exemption of
.'5 per cent of the levy made against
it for estate taxes PROVIDED THAT
AMOUNT HAS BEEN OR IS TO BE
PAID THE STATE IN WHICH THE
ESTATE IS LOCATED AS AN IN¬
HERITANCE TAX. Do you get it?
In the Florida case the Federal gov¬
ernment can give no exemption, be¬
cause there is no state inheritance
tax, therefore the Federal govern¬
ment has to take the whole $75,000.
In Georgia the Federal Government
assesses $75,000 against the state,
credits that estate with an exemption
of one-fourth of the amount levied
and takes three-fourths into the Fed¬
eral treasury, the one-fourth which is

| levied before the exemption and,
I therefore, affects this state just as it
would the federal government and,
i whenever the Federal estate tax is
finally wiped out, under the present
Georgia law the whole inheritance tax
in this state also is wiped out. He is
quite enthusiastic over the idea that
these details and comparisons should
be brought to nation-wide attention
in any advertising campaign Cham
' hers of Commerce, civic and commer¬
cial organizations and the large Geor-
credited as an exemption going into
the state treasury. In both cases the
estate pays only the $75,000 and, i in
our case, we get our share for apply
ing to the expense of operating our
government. The non-inheritance tax
states are, of necessity, compelled to
supply that deficiency in their source
of revenue by taxing some other pos¬
session on which there is no Federal
Exemption.
“Doesn’t that make it quite clear
just why the Georgia law is better
than those laws which other states
are advertising to the world as a
great attraction to people to become
residents? I think so, and am quite
sure people who are to be attracted
because of such advantages wifi find
it the same way I do if they are in
formed on just what the provisions of
the Georgia law are.”
Mr. Dozier, in a casual way, car¬
ried his illustration further to show
that, if congress at its next session
passed an Act reducing the Federal
estate tax, automatically that ro
