ATHENS BANNER-HERALD
Full Associated Press Service
The Grand Jury Is Right
The Banner-Herald is in hearty agreement with the
sentiment expressed by the Grand Jury in its general
presentments, several days ago, Which asserted that
“Clarke County officials are giving the people full
value for the tax dollar.” -
This declaration was based on the reports of com
mittees that engaged in a thorough investigation of
the manifold activities of the county governing authori
ties. Of course, it is the duty of public officials to
give the “people full value for the tax dollar,” but, un
fortunately, such is not always the case. In fact, in
many counties, it is more the exception than the rule;
and investigation will reveal that such counties are in
most instances governed by irresponsibles or those who
use their offices as a means to an end-—usually a sel
fish end.
Clarke county, though, has always exercised the ut
most discretion in the choice of its public officials, en
trusting its affairs only to those of ability and integrity.
Many of them are officials of long standing, tried and
true, and measuring up in every respect to the trust re
posed in them, with the result that the electorate has
not felt disposed to run the risk entailed in changing
its public officials every year or so.
Such a course has been wise in many respects. The
absence of acrimonious political contests, with their
bitter after-effects, has promoted harmony in the com
munity, and there is always more likelihood of “giv
ing the people full value for the tax dollar” under
harmonious conditions than when there is a disposition
to work at cross purposes,
Due to the pay-as-you-go policy, rigidly adhered to
by the county commissioners, Clarke county ig not only
free of debt (except for its bond commitments) but is
able to effect great economies in the absence of inter
est charges on borrowed money and by availing itself
of cagsh discounts. While other counties are now bor
rowing money against taxes due next December, the
Grand Jury revealed that Clarke county is not only up
to date with its bond payments, but also has sufficient
funds on hand and in sight from tax collections to carry
through until next December, when 1938 taxeg are
due, without having to resort to loans.
The Banner-Herald has always been an advocate of
giving credit where credit is due, and we commend the
recent Grand Jury for the just tribute it paid to the
able, intelligent and economical manner in which the
tax payers’ interests are being served by our county
officials.

Senate Tax Rebels
Insistent; Will
Continue To Fight
WASHINGTON. —{#)—Senators
rebelling against President Roose
velt’s business tax policies declar
ed Saturday they were willing to
delay adjournment of congress
rather than yield.
Despite this new threat to lead
ers’ hores for adjournment May
14, house spokesmen supporting
the President held their ground.
They contended they had the
whip-hand because, if a tax revis
jon bill were not agreed upon, the
present law embodying the busi
ness-criticized undistributed prof
its and capital gains levies would
remain in effect.
Senate members of the confer
ence committee which is seeking
to reconcile differences between
the house and senate tax bills re
iterated their determination to in
sist upon provigions of the senate
measure, and house members just
as firmly stuck by the house pro
visions.
The house bill, bearing the ap
rroval of President Roosevelt
would impose an undistributed
profits tax on corporations having
income of more than $25,000 a
year, and a graduated scale of
rates on capital gains.
The senate voted to substitute
flat-rate levies, approved by many
busness spokesmen, on both cor
poraton income and capital gains.
In three meetings of the confer
ence committee, no suggestions for
compromise have been advanced.
Budget Approved
For 74 Percent
Of Appropriations
ATLANTA.— (&) —The bulk of
the state department budgets. for

In announcing the routine ap
proval, fiscal officers said pay
ments to teachers would continue
on 100 percent - basis until the
state had discharged its rledge 1o
support common schools for seven
months' terms.
it was explained the education
al department itself,” headed by
Dr. M. D. Collins, would operate
the next three months on 74 per
cent of appropriations just as
other departments ‘“but salaries to
teachers.- do not come in the cat
egory with department expenses.”
SQtate Auditor Zach Arnold said
“apout six or eight more budgets
remain for the governor to can
vas and act upon.”
Teachers have been paid through
March 15, or for five and one-half
of the seven months the state
contracted to ~ suprort under the
educational act of 1937.
The governor said the remain
ing one and one-half month’s sala
ries ‘would he paid entirely “prob
ably by the end of June.”

Fresh Offensive
Is Opened By
Spanish Insurgents
HENDAYE, France (At the
Spanish Frontier)— (&) —Spanish
insurgents Saturday opened a
fresh offensive east of Balaguer, in
the center of the long, curving
Catalonian front, to crush the
outlying defenses of Barcelona.
Aragon troors under the insur
gent red and gold started their
forward drive some 70 miles west
northwest of Barcelona with the
objective of meeting other insur
gent forces marching slowly on
Tortosa and widening the breach
in government territory.
Government Spain was cut in
two Friday and forces which had
speared eastward to the coast
turned to the north for assault on
Tortosa, 95 miles southwest of
Barcelona.
Insurgent dispatches said the
Aragon troops suddenly returned
to offensive warfare after resist
ing a series of government as
saults lasting more than 75 hours.
The immediate result of the new
drive, these advices said, was the
shattering of the government line
in several places, although the
exact location of the operations
was not given.
One report declared the govern
ment troops were “forced to re
tire from their field base,’ leaving
behind a large number of dead.
Two large munition depots were
said to have been taken.
Observers said the strategy of
the new central drive was to
strike quickly before government
commanders could reinforce their
tired ‘warriors who had been
