ion of Stall- Controller II
and he has co advised a

struts the statute to moan that worn
en who desire to vote are granted
that privilege by paying a poll tux a
required of male voters, but if a worn
does not desire to participate in
elections she does not have
poll tax. and county asses-
sors are without authority to levy tin I
poll tax against her.
In answer to an inquiry from Airs.
Anna Bow mat) of I’alestim county
assessor of Anderson County, Con
trollcr Terrell sent the following re
ply;
' Keplying to your t'avoi of the 1 Ith
inst.. asking for information as to
whether or not you should assess
women and place their names on the
tax rolls for poll tax, you are advised
that the law passed by the called ses-
sion of tile thirty-fifth legislature
granting women the right to vote in
all primary elections and conventions
in this state, and requiring the pay-
ment of a poll tax of all women de
siting to vote after the 1st day ot
lanuary. Il'ltt, does not levy a poll t.ix
on all women of voting age.
Section of tills act is as follows
The provisions of this act shall
apply and govern tin voting of wom-
en tn the primary elections held dur ,
ing the year 191!*, and from and afte
the 1st of January. 1919. each woman
veter in this State shall tie required
to pay the poll tax now required by
law ot each male person who desires
to vote, and shall be governed and
controlled by all of the laws of tht
State of Texas requiring and permit-
tin - tb.e voting upon the payment of
poll tax in this State.'
' The statute quoted above does not
levy a poll tax against all women,
but grants women who desire to vote
the privilege of doing so by paying a!
poll tax as required by male voters
You are therefore advised th.it women
should not be assessed or plactui on
the tax roils for a poll tax."
Mt Terrell pointed out that article

Twenty cotton marketing offices
will be established in Ti xas next year
under tin- allspices of the I’ederal bu-
reau of markets in co-operation with
i lie Agricultural and Aleehanicul Col-
lege. The limited work in that field
the past year has produced such re-
sults as warrant great extensions ol
the service Io the cotton growers ol
the State. It is believed that almost
ten millions of dollars will be saved
the farmer in Texas alone annually by
the establishment of these offic* s
