Legislative Leaders Expect But
jLittle Change in Tax Structure
ATLANTA — (# — Legislative
leaders indicated Saturday they
expect little change to be made in
the present tax structure of the
state government by the 1937 gen
eral assembly.
The process, they said, will prob
ably be to raise some state levies
and add new forms of taxation as
burdens are lifted from counties
and cities in accordance with the
democratic platform adopfed at the
Macon convention October 7.
In this way, leaders argue, mon
ey for social security, schools, pub
lic health and other contemplated
programs will be sought largely
inh the commerce and trade centers
where there is the greatest flow
of wealth. 3
in only one respect does the Ma
econ platform call directly for a
major change in the present tax
system—it demands "appropriate
exemptions of personal effects and

Daily Banner, who died here
suddenly early Saturday. Fun

with the pastor, Rev, George
M. Acree officiating.
JOSEPHH, STONE, /6
DIES HERE SATURDAY
Prominent Athenian Was
Former Head of Athens
Banner; Burial Monday
Early Saturday morning Joseph
H. Stone passed away at his home
on South Lumpkin street. He had
been in failing health for a long
time and while his death wag not
unexpected it came as a great
shock to his family.
Death came to him sometime aft
er three o'clock Saturday morn
ing. When his son went.to arouse
him about seven o'clock, he found
that the end had come during a
peaceful sleep.
Mr. Stone was one of Athens’
oldest and most respected citizens.
He was born in this city, the son
of Rev. and Mrs. Ellison D. Stone
and was in hig seventy-seventh
year,
He had spent his entire life in
Athens and with the exception of
a few months in his young man
hood days had been in the print
ing and publishing business.
Along with hig father and bro
ther he owned and managed the
Athens Evening Chronicle and the
the Athens Weekly Chronicle for
a number of years back in the
eighties. For a while they were
the lessees of the Athens Banner.
Since 1804, Mr, Stone had been
‘with the E. D. Stone Press, of this
city, of which he wag at the time
of his death joint owner with his
brother, Rev, George E. Stone.
- In his younger days he was very
much interested in Odd Fellow
ship, having held all the prominent
offices in that lodge, as well as

small homes occupted by owners,”
This, of course, will affect only
the general property tax which
now accountg for less than one
eighth of the state's total revenue.
Inasmuch as most leaders believe
the homestead and personal effects
exemptions can come only after a
constitutional amendment, the pos
sibility of their igmediate effect
on the revenue of the cities, coun
ties and state was regarded as re
mote.
Leaders freely predict there will
be no tampering with the gasoline
tax which now brings in slightly
more than half of the $30,000,000
a year from state taxes. Four cents
of the six-cent tax goes to high
ways, one cent to counties and the
remaining cent to the education
department.

GENERAL OPTIMISM
Postmaster Myers Reports
Postal Receipts Sure
To Show Hike
Practically every well known re

an increase in business in Athens
over last year at this time, and
the usual rush season of Christ
mas shopping was expected to
swell still more the valumn of
trade for this season.
All three Athens banks yester
day reported that their desposits
show a healthy increase for the
same period last year. Many new
accounts have heen opened at the
bank and an increase in deposits
of old customers is reported.
Postal receipts for the season
will show an advance over, last
yvear’'s business, and the Christmas
mailing, another barometer of
business conditions has been steady
for the last two or three weeks.
General Increase
Practically every 'line of busi
ness in Athens shows ap increase
in buying over last year. While
the weather conditions have, in
some instances slightly affected
the turn-over of certain types of
goods, general trade conditions, as
reflected by bank - deposits, have
been bettér than last year.
“UWAth the arrival of §éVEral huns
dred thousands of dollars in farm
benefit payment checks, which
have begun to trickle into this
area, post-Christmas business will
more than likely be most favora
ble. About one-fourth of the ben
efit checks due Clarke farmers
have already arrived. This county
is due to get about $50,000 in ben
efits this year. Close to $1,000,-
000 is due farmers in the Athens
area, with the bulk of the'checks‘
expected within the next two
weeks. Arrival of many of them
next week will add still more to.

Other Talmadge Appoin
tees Expected to Return
To Former Pursuits
ATLANTA.— (#) —Most of the
statehouse officers and Talmadge
aporintees who are slated to go
out in January turned Saturday
toward the pursuits they followed
before entering politics.
Governor Talmadge, himself, has
previously declared his intention
of returning to his farm at Me-
Rae where he will attend to its
affairs and edit The Statesman,
his personal newspaper.
Although Talmadge is a lawyer,
he has said he will not return to
that profession. He declined to
discuss his future participation in
politics but said he will keep in
close touch with developments,
The governor came to Atlanta
as commissioner of agriculture in
June, 1927, and held that office for
five and a half years, He has
been governor since January,
1933, -
Tom Linder, the present com
missioner of agriculture, also
plans to return to a farm-—the an
cestral acres near Dublin. Linder
was defeated for re-election by
Columbus Roberts of Columbus.
Linder came to the capitol with
Talmadge in 1927, serving as Tal
madge’s chief clerk in charge of
the fertilizer division. Upon his
chief’s promotion to the governor
ship, he was elected to the agri
cultural post. .
A picture of Linder was hung
in the agriculture commissioner’s
office the other day alongside that
of Talmadge and the others who
preceded them.
Although Linder came to Atlanta
from a farm at Hazlehurst and still
maintains his legal residence
there, he has chosen the Dublin
acres for his future home. His
grandfather, he said, acquired the
Athens, Ga., Sunday, December 20, 1936.

the first of three stories tell
ing what kind of a woman is
Elizabeth, gracing the throne
as England’'s new queen,.
(By NEA SERVICE).
LONDON .—Britain’s new queen
might well be described by this
phrase: “the woman every fond
mother wishes her favorite son
would marry.”
From her birth as the untitled
daughter of the 14th Farl of
Strathmore, through a happy and
simple girlhood unmarked by any
great surfeit of money, Elizabeth
Bowes-Lyon grew up with every
quality that marked her as a
mother-in-law's ideal.
She had the bluest of blue
blood, was rleasantly pretty (but
not too pretty), had good health,
good temper, tact, intelligence,
frugality, respectability beyond
whisper of reproach, and fine
.sense of responsibility and duty.
These: are important elemnets
that make a queen. It is not sur
prising that, when the Duke of
York’s love for the earl’s daugh
ter was - declared, Queen Mary
took her immediately to her
heart.
The tutelage and counsel and
the quasi-parental love of the
Queen Mother have had and al

So much has been written about
the virtues of the new queen that
it is possible to build her into a
stiff-and-tarched unreality. This
would be gratuitous.
The “duty first” side of Queen
Elizabheth stands plain, open on

the new royal couple assume the
burden of the monarchy.
But the lighter side of the
“braw Scotch lassie” who has be
come Britain's queén is no less
revealing, because it shows that
on the throne beside Georve VI
there sits a human being as well
as a queen.
" For example, throughout her
vouth, Queen Elizabeth signed her
name in letters to intimates r=s
“Lizzie.” That is not usually the
act of one who is position-proud.
She continued the practice until
long after her marriage had made
her Duchess of York.
Attending a musical comedy

which amused her so much that

of the past few days to raise funds
for a Christmas feast for the sold

The communist demands for a
“real single command” were Sup-.

favorable mention Saturday to a

night ordered its crack divisions

This order, superseding a prev

indicate new difficulties had arisen

Nanking's punitive expedition
would use against the rebels any
form of attack deemed necessary.
Military authorities tempered this
threat with the assurance that
Sianfu, one of China’s ancient
capitals, would mnot be bombed
from the air.
The government spokesman
would not confirm that negotia

Shensi province had broken

principal obstacle to agreement
was the rebels insistence that

Arizona Radio Operator
Picks Up Unidentified
Call Saturday
(By the Associated Press)
SALT LAKE CITY — ® —
Faint radio calls and a cry in the
dark stirred hope Saturday night
for the nine occupants of two air
linerg lost in western wilds.
Saturday, as 26 planes and hun
dreds of men on the ground sought
a Western Air Express transport
that vanished with seven persons
over Utah last Tuesday, a radio
operator at Kingman, Ariz., heard
a man's voice caliing, faintly,
weakly.
“Is Salt Lake City or St. George
there?”
j Heard Secont Time
Again the unidentified voice was
heard. At Les Vegas, Nev., the
indistinet call was picked up, too.
And, less clearly, in Salt Lake City
—headguarters of the wide flung
Utah search.
It had been nearly five days
since the plane disappeared. Its
radio was believed vur of order,
“But,” said A. E. Cahlan, spokes
man here for Western Air, “thére °
was one aboard the Los Angeles

| Moreover, Cahlan pointed out,
' seeking & clue in the hope the five

yet be alive, there ig no radio sta

western Utah.
“This is known to all the airline
pilots, Edwards would not know

While the wait for clearer calls
and some indication of their origin
continued in Utah, Nevada, Cali
