postmaster at Winnetka, ILL.,, because
he criticised the President for his en-

made by City Council before it finishes
sitting as a board of tax revision and
appeals.
The net increase in city valuations
as levied by the assessors totals only
S1,505,S45. Councilmen generally de-
clare that these figures as compared

small, that decreases We're made where
the values should have been the same,
If not increased.
Council it is understood. is deter
mined to exert every effort to keep
the city mill rate for 1916 at nine
mills if possible. certainly not more
than nine and half. To keep the
mill rate down will be impossible un-
der the figures as submitted by the
assessors, it is contended. This means
that either the tax rate will have to
he raised or the assessment revised
upward considerably.
The city assessment as compiled by
the assessors shows a total valuation
of $51,S42,599 as against $50,3S6, "a

S1.606.5S3. However from this must
be deduced a total of $1O0.6sS, which
represents the decreases in the first,

Where There Are Decreases
I'm the Fourth ward. Councilmen
contend, there should be an increase
rather than decrease in property
valuations The decrease amounts to
S12,365. In the Third ward the de-
crease is S5,I93. This is brought about
