Norwood Pays Back Taxes in Arkansas Oil Case
In Little Rock on Tuesday, Attorney General Hal L. Norwood turned over $10,126.81 in back taxes collected from oil leases in Union County and a Little River firm. The Star previously criticized Norwood’s tax policy and special counsel fees, arguing decades of prior judgments misvalued oil lands and that collecting taxes retroactively with a broker’s share was inefficient and improper, urging accountability and a stricter tax system in Arkansas.

The London naval conference offers hope in a war weary world yet remains only part of the task ahead. H M Tomlinson argues that a fear of war is insufficient and a positive, passionate desire for peace must persuade statesmen to fear democracy more than divine wrath. He warns reductions in armaments alone won t suffice as modern weaponry can be copied and directed easily. If peace isn t achieved, Americans and Britons may press Washington and Whitehall and make peace as natural as money to bankers.
