System Income Tax System to Have Edge on Other Methods Suggested to Special Board. (By Associated Press.) ATLANTA.—After holding pub lic hearings In a number of Geor gia towns and cities and meet ing in Atlanta during the present week, the special commission, ap pointed by Governor Walker to study the state's tax problem and report to the extraordinary ses sion of the general assembly in November, Is expected to complete its work next week and then be gin preparation of the recommen dations it la to make to the legis lators. T^e proposal for an Income tax appears to have an edge ov.er all other methods of taxation sug gested to the coramleslon, accord ing to several members. One of the strongest opponents to the Income tax, however, has been heard bjr tlto committee dur ing Its hearings In Atlanta. This opponent Is former John M. Slaton, who advocated adoption of the tax equalization law now In effect In the state. In referring to the state Income tax In North Carolina, the forn*r governor sa|d: "When I was in North Carolina recently, vfcfcephus Danbj'.s, for mer secretary of the navy, told me that he was giving the assembly there only one more session In which to abolish the income tax. Those who are in a position to know in North Carolina will tell you not to adopt an Income tax. They don't like it." Mr. darter* declared the adop tion of ar> Income tax would r ot result In equalizing the tax burden In the state, but on the other hand would result In Increased taxation: He advocated retention of the present tax equalization law with such amendments as would renove any defects which might now ex ist. This is a question which mem bers of the commission todav said had not yet been considered but during Mr. Slaton's remarks be fore the body this Interesting fea ture develbped: x“Do you think, governor," one of tho members asked of Mr. Slaton "that this commission in framing Its report should consider whether the assembly will adopt It; should we submit a report of exactly what we hav^ ascertained, or ehould we consider whether it will meet with the approval of the legislature? "If we present our recommenda tions, does not our responsibility end and leave the question up to the assembly" Harris Predicts Victory For Bonus j Governor Names Local Men Delegates to Ses sion of American Cotton Association Oct. 16.
