Johnston for Governor Advocates Tax Commission Repeal
Madison County Advi argues that Oscar Johnston will repeal the Tax Commission, citing how hill counties bore higher tax burdens while the Delta gained property value. It contrasts 1915 and 1918 tax payments across Lee, Monroe, Prentiss, Lowndes, Clay, Alcorn, Benton, Itawamba, Pontotoc, Tippah, and Marshall counties to claim the commission shifted taxes away from Delta and onto hill counties, urging readers to support Johnston over others who back the current system.
