West Virginia farm land values fall under tax pressure
West Virginia county assessors, under orders from Walter Sr Hallanan state tax commissioner, push to raise farm land values for taxation despite USDA figures showing plow land values in the state have declined since 1920. USDA data place current averages around 12 dollars per acre, well below 1927 and 1901 levels, with officials citing no statewide average value available.

Democratic Club Visions of End to GOP Normalcy
Prominent Charleston attorney Clyde Heecher Jotmann urged the Democratic Club to back the party, criticizing Republican “Normalcy” and war-era policies. He argued the Versailles treaty, deflation, and business distress harmed the country, praising decency over political power while contrasting with war-era achievements and missteps. The address included political reflections, a parable about a boy and father, and a wartime era frustration over policy and economy, ending with an ad for Dean’s Ointment.
