HIGH STATE TAX RATE

Illinois is confronted with the high
est tax rate in its history. The state
faces deficit Of $3,5OO,000 because
the rate was fixed too low last year.
State Treasurer Andrew Russell, who
refused to sign the low rate last year.
said today that an IS cent rate will
be necessary to meet the present stu.
alton. The highest rate heretofore
was 20 cents on the 500 valuation.
That was fixed in 1913.
In 1914 It was 4s cents and in 1916
II was placed at IS cents. Then Mr..
Russell protested, asserting the rate
was too low and would result in
deficit in the general fund.

CITY HAS COLD
STORAGE BAN
Federal Officials Wonder Why
Ordinance Has Not Been
Invoked.

Federal officials discovered the ex-
istence of city ordinances which If
enforced would prevent the boarding
of food articles in cold storage plants
and would aid in the campaign to
reduce the high cost of living.
Why the ordinance which specific.
ally forbids keeping articles of food
in cold storage for purposes of fore.
stalling the market or increasing the
prices has not been discovered by the
city authorities, or why, IL known, Il
has not been invoked, is the question
which some of the federal officials
are asking.
"The fact that eggs are put into
cold storage when they sell at II
cents for the purpose of holding them
there until the price is raised to more
than As cents is a clear case of fore.
stalling the market and clearly in
violation of the ordinances dealing
with that question:" said Assistant
United States District Attorney John
II. Lally today. ''In going over the
various methods by which the per.
sons and firms responsible for the
high cost Of living can be brought
to time we stumbled upon the city
ordinance. Why IL has not been re.
sorted to by the city administration,
when 1t is SO easy to help the situa.
ton, is pertinent question for the
general public to have answered.
Perhaps the ordinance was over
looked. II that is true, then now Is
the time to begin to secure warrants
for violations"

new CONSTITUTION
COMING


Supporters OF the move for a con.
stitutional convention are confident
that the flftieth general assembly will
adopt q resolution to submit the Ques.
ton to vote Of the people.
Ten votes were lacking when the at.
tempt was made to put It through the
house on March 81, 1916, after the sen.
ate had given the resolution the re.
quired two.thirds majority.
Fifty out Of the ninety.two members
who voted for the resolution in the
forty.ninth session will return to the
fiftieth. The supporters of the "con.
con" declare they know that they may
count upon not less than thirty.eight
Of the forty.two who take the places
Of the others being with them.
Twenty Of the thirty.two members
who voted against the resolution be.
fore were reelected to the house,
which, opponents of the plan say, 10
a better showing than the other side
made.
Sixteen OF the seventeen whose
names do not appear on the roll call
were reelected, and It Is reasonable
to suppose that most OF them will
dodge the issue again and be absent
when the vote Is taken In the next
house.
II Is then necessary for the pro.
motors Of convention to get their
strength from the new members. This
they say they can do and they have
hopes Of winning over some of the
thirty.two who voted against them In
the last session.
No pledges have been exacted from
the members this year. according to
report. George e. Cole, Shelby M.
Singleton and their associates in the
organizations that always have been
behind the convention move have
started to work rounding up the
members.
