GOOD MEN WANTED
Consolidated Rural School Work AZ.
tardsd by Difficulty in Securing In
struetors-New Field Soon to Afford
Great Opportunities to Young Men.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Aug. 11.-"That which
more than anything else stands
in the way of progress as we should
like in the matter of developing the ru-
raj school idea is lack of trained men
to take charge of these consolidated
schools"
That is what State Superintendent
Deyoe finds in regard to the new work
Of state encouragement of the teaching
Of agriculture and manual training.
Iowa has trained quite number of
young men for this special work, hut
they generally go to Minnesota or some
other state where better salaries are
offered.
Il believe" said the state superin-
tendent. that when it becomes known
that there is a demand for young men
trained for this work in the consoii-
dated rural schools they will prepare
themselves for it. There is the great
est opportunity in the world right here
The man who is capable OF takins
charge of one Of these schools mus;
become not only the leader in educa-
ton but in social life in his commun-
ity. He can become. and If he Is the
right quality, will become, man o,
great influence in his community.
Where these schools provide res
idence for the principal and plot OF
ground, and they will come to that as
part Of the equipment. the modest
salaries paid will be sufficient remun-
Grafton. But just now 1t seems impossi'
BILE to find persons with the training
to become principal Of the schools and
to teach agriculture and manual train
ing. In some places the school people
fear they will have to give up thei'
plans because they can not find the
right person for the principal.
"The field for usefulness is very
large right here. Our young mer
should prepare for the work. 1t Il
going to grow rapidly"

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. Aug. 11.-There will be
no Judging in the matter of the carry
ing out the orders of the state in regard
to changes in the assessments on all
classes Of property. Any disposition to
state authorities.
State Auditor Bleak1y has now eight
crews Of county examiners out on the
road at work on the books of various
counties They have abundant author
ity to go into every details of county
work.
Every one of these county examiners
has already been given formal notice by
the state auditor to investigate and see
If the counties they examine have COM
piled with the orders of the state exec
utive council as to changes in the valu-
alton Of all kinds OF property for tax
alton purposes, They will in the next
few months visit half the counties OF
the state. They will report If there is
any neglect of the duty of making
changes in the assessments.
Auditors Need More Help.
1t is very possible that in many of
the counties of the state the county
auditors will have to have additional
help in making the changes. for never
before have there been such extensive
changes or changes in practically all
classes of property. This is because the
council undertook 10 make the aSSess-
ment in accord with law. and because
local assessors had not tried 20 make
the assessment in accord with law.
State officials point out tha> there Is
plenty Of authority with the county
boards to secure the additional help for
the unusual work placed upon the
county auditors. If there is failure TO
have the work done the responsibility
| will rest with the county officials.
In Polk county it was several days
| before the local officials came to COM
prehend what had been done in the
matter of adjusting Valuations; and at
first the Des Moines property owners
| started OFF with big complaint about
the injustice don. them and now they
| had been pinched and the farmers left
alone. But the local taxing bodies an
| nounced reduction in the tax levies,
and when it was all figureo out the
| property owners found they were not
going to pay any more taxes than be-
| fore, and suddenly the. grumb!ina
ceased. 1t is admitted however. that
| the net result of the increase in the
I valuation of city property is to place
| taxable values on property Of sinai
| value in excess Of It's actIai marke'
value But 1t Is pointed out That This
| injustice is one due entirely to the
| incompetency of the local assessors.
| The work Of making the changes in
| the tax books has already been COM
menced in Des Moines and large corps
| of clerks will handle the business.
