ASKS FOR LARGER SALARIES
FEATURE OF TAX COLLECTOR
DAVIS ANNUAL ESTIMATE.
Needs $3,635 More Money for His
Department Than Was Appropri
ated for Fiscal Year.

E. G. Davis, collector of taxes Of the
District. in his annual estimates submit
ted to the Commissioners today, asked for
an appropriation of $31. .235 with which to
run his department during the fiscal year
beginning July 1 next. This is $3, ,635
more than was appropriated for this de-
partment for the present fiscal year.
In his estimates Mr.. Davis requests
that a number of his office force be given
larger salaries. He particularly urged
that c. w. Collins, deputy collector of
taxes, be promoted from 81 800 to $500.
since this Office was created, thirteen
years ago, there has been but one incum-
bent, and that there has been no increase
in the salary, although the increase of
business has multiplied the responsible
ties.
c. Nj. Towers. cashier of the depart
ment, is recommended to be increased
tr.. assistant cashier, to be promoted
from $1,40O to $1,000. David Warner,
bOokkeeper, who now receives 81, 600, Is
slated for a 5000 increase. and Lee
Ross, clerk and bank messenger, to be
increased from $1,000 to N.4OO. The
promotion is ]. S. Jones. a messenger.
He now receives $500. and Mr. Davis
recommends him for s72O.
Wants a New Officer.
Mr. Davis wants a new position for
his department "chief bailiff." and he
proposes to pay this officer $1,000. He
contends that this additional Office is
necessary to have an effective system
for the prompt collection Of delinquent
personal taxes.
He explained that the law imposing the
duty of collecting delinquent personal
taxes by distraint ON the collector of
taxes. failed to provide sufficient means to
make 1t effective.
He said, Ito provide the necessary facili-
ties which are now lacking, l have esti-
mated for a chief bailiff, clothed with
power to act promptly.
Il am convinced, after several years
experience. that there is but one effective
way to enforce this provision of the law,
and that is the creation of such position
as recommended. SO that the person
charged with the duty may be ready at
any and all times to act promptly"
He wants an appropriation of $815 for
horse. wagon and harness for use of this
"chief bailiff' to be used In making COL
lections.
Mr.. Davis asked for an increase of 500
in the amount used as contingent ex-
penses. This year Mr.. Davis has at his
disposal $1,000.

COMMENTS ON LYNCnINGs
BOOKER WASHINGTON SAYS
CIVILIZATION Is THREATENED.
"No Legal Punishment Is Too Sc
we're for the Brute That As
saults a Woman"

NEW YORK, August 20.-The World
today prints a signed statement from
Booker T. Washington. made at BaIti-
more today. In which the negro educator
comments at length upon recent lynch
ings In his statement Mr.. Washington
says:
within the past sixty days twenty-five
negroes have been lynched in different
parts of the United States. OF this num-
ber only four of the twenty-five were
even charged with criminal assault upon
women. How long can our Christian CIV
ilization stand this? I am making no
special plea for the negro, innocent or
guilty, but 1 am calling attention to the
danger that threatens our civilization.
Couldn't Be Too Severe.
For the negro criminal, and especially
for the negro loafer, gambler and drunk
ard. have nothing but the severest con-
demnation. and no legal punishment is
too severe for the brute that assaults a
woman
mo doubt the people who engage in
lynchings and excuse them believe that
they will have the effect Of striking ter
ror to the guilty. But who shall say
whether the persons lynched are guilty?
That is what courts are for. Those who
have examined into the facts know only
too we'll that in the wild justice of the
mob it Is frequently the innocent who is
executed.
Mob justice undermines the very
foundation upon which our civilization
rests. viz, respect for the law and con-
fdence of its security. There are, in my
opinion, two remedies:
First of all. let us unite in a de-
termined effort everywhere to see that
the law Is enforced, that all people at all
places see that the man charged with
crime is given fair trial.
Get After the Idle.
Secondly. let all good citizens unite in
an effort to rid the communities, es-
pecially the large cities, Of the idle,
vicious and gambling element And in
this connection 1 would not be just and
would not be frank unless I stated that
the better of the black race could use
their influence, especially in the cities. to
see that the idle element that lives by its
wits without permanent or reliable Oc-
cupation or place of abode is either re-
formed or gotten rid of in some manner.
In most cases it Is this element that
furnishes the powder for these explosions.

SAN BERNARDINO. Cal. August 90
Capt. ]. B. Cazon Of the Salton Indian
reservation was here yesterday in con-

regarding the destitution which has come
upon his tribesmen as a result Of the en-

For months the Indians have been dis

week to week In the anticipation that the
waters would recede and return to them

Brand-New Caterpillar Is Eat.
ing Up Your Trees.
HAS ARRIVED BY MILLIONS
City Will Be 0verrun if Prompt Ac.
ton Is Not Taken.
LOOKS SLEEPY BUT HE ISN'T
Hangs Onto Leaves With Death Grip
and Chews Away INCREASINGLY
Night and Day.

Trueman Lanham. superintendent of
parking of the District. has discovered a
brand-new species Of caterpillar. and
from what he has seen of it so far he
thinks the city will be overrun and the
trees will be defoliated unless some quick
remedy is applied.
Not being a bugologist. although ex-
pert in plant life, Supt. Lanham has sent
samples of his discovery to the officials
of the Department of Agriculture, to de-
termine the species.
These insects are about an inch long
and have smooth backs Of a dark red
color with black and green stripes They
are not adorned with the coat of long
fuzz usually prominent on the common
tree caterpillar.
Quiet, But Dangerous.
They cluster together and appear to be
lifeless. They have little II any effect on
the bark OF the tree according to Mr..
Lanham, and confine their entire attention
to the leaves. He believes that had they
shown themselves earlier In the season
would have no doubt been disastrous, but
it is evident they appeared late and the
leaves are full grown and hardy and will
be little affected
They were first discovered on some
linden trees on 18th street northwest
above Massachusetts, avenue yesterday
by a man engaged in tree trimming. The
man saw them grouped on a branch near
the stem Of some leaves. There were sew
eral thousand within a space of less than
foot. and upon first sight the man
thought 1t was a growth on the tree
Upon closer examination he saw a slow
moving effect in the cluster. and then
determined that something new in the
caterpillar family had been intFoduced IL
Washington.
Have . Death Grip.
He cut the twig, and when 1t dropped
10 the ground the insects clung tightly tc
1t and made no motion to free them
selves. Several other lindens were exam
ined and more Of the new family were
found In no case were they found
crawling about the trees, simply clinging
tightly to the branch and stems. When
Supt. Lanham was shown the new species
life. but could not place the articles
shown to him. He carried two twigs up to
the Office OF Maj. Morrow, Engineer Com
missioner. The latter was interested,
but could offer no Information, and 1t was
then decided that 1t was a case for the
experts Of the Department OF Agriculture
Mr. Lanham has directed his inspectors
and tree trimmers to be on the lookou;
for these insects and to destroy them
whenever discovered. He has no idea
how they made their debut here. He
said he has been on intimate terms wit h
nearly every tree and tree bug in the
District for a good many years. but these
new caterpillars are strangers to him.
Suburbs Are Affected.
The caterpillars have attacked trees in
various parts Of the city and suburbs
Their operations are reported as far to
the northwest as Bethesda, Nd, and
suburbanites coming to the city each
morning say the pests are busy destroy
