MUST ACT QUICKLY
TO GET SECRETARY
CHICAGO SOCIAL WORKER HAS
TO KNOW DEFINITELY ABOUT
HER OFFER.

The necessity for a rapid completion
Of the canvass for the budget sought
by the Associated charities, was made
known today. A letter from Miss Sarah
A. Brown, superintendent of the South
Chicago Charities organization, who
has been tentatively rendered the posi-
ton of secretary here writes that she
must know Immediately whether the
offer made to her is to be made effec-
tive. She is being urged by her present
employers to sign contract for the
next year in Chicago and must make
her decision Immediately.
The meeting called by the chairman
for Monday evening at the Commercial
association rooms, will be attended by
all of the various committees and direc-
tors of the proposed local charities or
ganization. 1t is necessary that COM
plete report be made at that meeting
of the progress made to date and the
need for completing the canvass is an
incentive that is urging the canvassinS
committees to greater efforts today.
The committee originally named by
the Commercial association to make
an investigation of the associated char.
tiles plan for Ottumwa, spent five
weeks procuring a list of person suit
able and investigating their qualifica-
lions for the post of secretary. The
selection of Miss Brown resulted in a
tentative offer Of the place be made
her. She writes that the fiscal year Of
the organization for which she now
works begins on October 1. She has
thus far delayed her answer to the Chi
cago association pending definite
proposal from Ottumwa but has to
make her choice in a few days and the
meeting Monday will determine if she
is to come here.
The committees soliciting funds state
that they are meeting with success in
their efforts and it is hoped by real
strenuous work to be able to report the
budget raised by Monday night when
the organization will take on a more
promising aspect.

COTTON RELIEF IS
HOLDING BACK LAW
ALL OTHER DETAILS OF SPECIAL
WAR REVENUE BILL ARE
ABOUT SETTLED.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 16.-Taxes
on tobacco and wine and on telephone
and telegraph messages as framed by
the senate finance committee were
adopted today by the senate as part
of the war revenue bill leaving the
proposed cotton relief provision as the
only matter still in dispute.
The tobacco tax as incorporated in
the bill would levy graduated tax
of from So to $2,496 on manufacturers
of tobacco, cigars and cigarets. I'm
der the wine section manufacturers
of all still wines would pay eight cents
per gallon on their product and manu-
facturers of sweet wine would pay
fifty.f1ve cents a gallon on grape
brandy or wine spirits used in the
fertilization of sweet wines.
Numerous petitions urging legisla-
ton for the relief of the cotton pro-
ducers of the south we're presented by
southern senators, including tele-
gram from Sir Charles NIAGARA, an
English cotton manufacturer who sug-
gested cooperation between the United
States and Breat Britain in a move
ment to maintain cotton prices.
After the senate had agreed to all
of the committee amendments to the
bill Senator Pomerene proposed an
amendment which would make perma-
nent the fifty-cents gallon tax on
grape brandy used In the fortifcaion
of sweet wines.

GERMAN GUNBOAT
AFTER JAPANESE

Honolulu, Oct. 16-The German gun
boat Geier from Tsing-Tau, China, ar.
rived here today with a complement of
100 men, twenty-five hours in advance
of the Japanese liner Shinyo Maru,
which is due here tomorrow, bound for
San Francisco.
Beyond saying that they intended to
coal ship the officers of the Geier were
silent. The gunboat showed no signs
of having been in action but the scrap
ed appearance of her port side indicat-
ed that she might have been coaled at
sea.
Inasmuch as this is the Geier's first
appearance in an American port, she
is entitled to twenty-four's stay and as
much coal as will take her to the near
est German port. Since all the Ger
man naval bases in the place have
been seized, this is equivalent to per-
mission to fill her bunkers but after
coaling she must not revisit any Amer
lean port for the next three months.
