Labor sleuths Now at outs.

Detective William J. Burns and Wal

overpaid parasites of the National

bleeding the Erectors' Association, the
Association of Manufacturers and the
Steel Trust out of a few hundred
thousand dollars more, while Burns
now claims that he never meant
Gompers when he frequently threat
ened to get the higher ups"-which
he distinctly did. But neither Burns

VALUATION MEDIUM ..
BROKERS' PROBLEM
Next Meeting Will Discuss
Means of Projecting Clients
From Excessive Rating.

The question OF establishing a medi-
um whereby clients of real estate brok-
ers may be protected in the asscssmen;
of valuations viii be the principal topic
OF discussion before the regular month
Estute Brokers Association. The date
is placed tentatively for December 81.
The Raleigh Hotel will probably be
selected by the brokers for the meet
ing.
The discussion will center mainly on
the matter as TO how real estate men
can arrive at the true values Of prop
erty in the several sections of the city.
SO that they may be cole to protect
tine client when tax assessors complete
their valuations In January. The mat
ter has always been the topic of con-
siderable debate among the local real
estate fraternity, and no satisfactory
solution has ever been arrived at
Suggestions will be advanced as TO
whether 1t would be better to eStab-
lish a central agency where real estate
deals could be recorded with their true
considerations" and placed with a neu-
trail agency. such as the Chamber OF
Commerce. or whether 4 quizz at each
meeting on valuations would he the
better plan.
The effort is directed solely TO pro-
tect the client of real estate brokers
He is tine tax payer. b. arriving at
the true values, real estate men could
voice all appeal in cases where 1t is
claimed that the client is overrharsed
By the asse Ssor.
Appeals are often made where the
valuations are thought to be overrated
Tho 'ciient pays a rate Of $50 on ever

tion being rated taxable.
Properties appreciate and depreciste
often without the knowledge of the tax
ASSESSORS. The real estate man with
A thorough knowledge OF realty values
in the city would be- able to hack up
a clients appeal. where such an appeal
would be justified. For that puiLD
realty men are now occupied in trYin

is, however. felt inIprarticahle by MANY

One of the largest sales of the present
