Mayor's Further Call for Taxes

Kiukiang, Aug. 21, 1929, "From the meeting that was presided over by me at Hu Ching Fang's Chaped at Kuling yesterday forenoon, Mr. Chow Kuang Hung, Commissioner of Construction, told us that Kinngsi Provincial Govers-ment Committee has taken a proressive step toward the advancoment of Kuling, Luling and Lushan as a whole and that the residents at Kuling, both foreign and Chinese, must knead together as one Jump whole, while any former organi: ion ex Compang-like system must give way to the new Tsang-azo-huei and that the paying of taxes to the Provincial Government by both for-ign and Chinese residents must be equal in proportion to the amount fof Iand and the value of the house each Innd-holder has, For this reason I hope that the Iand-holders at Kuling will get their representatives ready to take part in our Tanng-sze-huei or Counsellors' Meeting which is to be formed in a few months.

Yours very faithfully, (Sgi.) C. 8. Wooo, Mayor of Kiukiang"
