Anderson of Chatham on Perry Amendment in Georgia house
In a Savannah speech Mr. Anderson of Chatham defended the Perry amendment taxing railroads at 12 percent of gross income. He argued railroads overstate property value, dodge taxes, and press users with high rates. He criticized Tennessee and Mississippi routes, urged adjusting law rather than blaming railroads, and noted Liberty County’s tax relief. The amendment was defeated by a large majority after the debate.
