TIX ATE FOR 192 WIL BE NGAGE Tax Fixing Body Announces Decision Synchronizing with the action, made public last week, of the Illinois State Tax Commission in finding final results of assessments and equaliza- tion for the year 1922, came the an- nouncement from the office of Gov- ernor Len Small, following a meeting of the tax fixing body created by statute, that the tax rate for the year would remain the same, aggregating four and five-tenths mills on each dollar, or forty-five cents on each $100 valuation of taxable property. The board is composed of Governor Small, State Auditor Andrew Russel and State Treasurer Edward E. Mil- ler. In fixing values for 1922 the tax commission made a decrease of $127, 801,568 on farm land valuation and $97,473,340 in personal property. In- creases were placed against lots, rail- road and electric lines and capital stock, aggregating a total of $24,701, 556, and yet the decrease in sum total amounts to $200,573,352 net as against the 1921 figures. Explains Process Explaining the process of reasoning that led the commission to make the big reduction in lands valuations. Col. Percy B. Coffin, chairman, issued the following statements: "After equalizing the several classes of property separately, the Commission considered the matter of equalization of the property in the State as between classes as provided by law. "In view of the economic situa- tion affecting farm lands in the State at present, and during the past three years, and the fact that farm land values for tax purposes had been influenced by the spec- ulative value era at and about the 1919 period for revaluation, and the further fact that the personal property values in the State had been decreased for the present year for taxation purposes, and upon consideration of the evidence offered by representative farmers at their hearing before the Com- mission, November 10, 1922, the Commission reached the conclu- sion that land values should be equalized in harmony with other classes of property by reduction to a point approximating the val- ues fixed in the 1915 revaluation, and therefore, applied a six per cent reduction, which produces a net result ten and one-half per cent below the final valuations fixed on lands by the Tax Com- mission for the year 1921. Having approved the action of the commission in fixing valuations, Gov- ernor Small and the two other mem- bers immediately promulgated the an- nouncement computing the following rates for the purposes named: Gen- eral state purposes, 1423 cents; State school purposes, 21 cents; Tlli- nois Waterway Fund, 2 2-3 cents; Uni- versity of Illinois, 6 2-3 cents; Total 45 cents on each one hundred dollars' valuation. Probationer, 80 Years Old, Beats Up Family Cuyahoga Falls, O.--The only red light district in the Falls has been eradicated. The pink glimmer which adorned the entrance of the police station has been abolished. The color of the light caused unfavorable com- ment, and so Chief of Police Russ Duffy demanded a showdown. He called a consultation of Mayor Hard- man, Safety Director Shumway and the members of the force. No one appeared to know who was respon- sible for the red light. The discus- sion ended by the adoption of a green lamp. The Falls now rejoices in a green light district. Filippino Mayor Wants to Educate Laborers Manila.--The retiring president of the city of Pasay, a suburb of Manila, is starting propaganda to establish a great Government or pri- vate school "whereby" Juan de la Cruz (the common laborers) may have an opportunity of realizing the beauties of science, sociology, the arts and agriculture through corre- spondence. He beileves that while the Government is educating a part of the youth of the islands through the public schools the laborer is be- ing neglected. PROGRESSIVES TO GET LABOR BACKING Will Make Effort to Seat Them in Congress Portland, Ore,--Organized labor will make a concerted effort to seat progressive candidates in Congress during coming elections. . © i It is confident the majoxity of dele- gates in the Senate and House at the next session will be sufficiently pro- gressive to guarantee public interest and unsaddle AL Wall Street from power. These statements were made by Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor, while conferring with local labor officials on plans for the American Federation convention, which will be held here beginning October 1, 1923. Triumphs Hailed "Defeat of anti-labor leaders, par- ticularly Beveridge and Poindexter, was decidedly satisfactory," Morrison said. "Labor will be prepared at the next campaign to solidly back progres- sive candidates. "Labor's biggest problem is un- employment. The 3 per cent immi- gration law aided in cutting down unemployment in America, but labor favors complete stopping of immigra- tion. The are 1,500,000 unemployed in the country to-day." Morrison asserted that Judge EI- bert Gary and Charles Schwab have been leaders in stressing a shortage of labor, while, he avers, Department of Labor statistics do not reveal even a shortage of common labor, "Such propaganda is part of a con- certed plan to destroy unions. It has been the most vicious effort to dis- credit labor unions. Scores G. O. P. Rule "The Harding administration has been against labor in every particu- lar. No legislation has been passed to relieve unemployment. Attorney-General [Daughtery is one of the thorns placed by the admin- istration in the side of labor. If Daugherty were to serve the best in- terests of the public he would resign." Morrison declared there is no just- ification for reduction of wages, be- cause Government figures show em- ployes should receipe $1.70 for every dollar received in 1914, He has been secretary of the Am- erican Federation of Labor for 26 years. Previously he was employed as a printer. VILLAGE OF WINNETKA. IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS. GENERAL NUMBER 381134.
