VICE PRESIDENT APPEARS
BEFORE LABOR CONFERENCE
Urges Meeting to Solve Problems in
Spirit of Common Human
Sympathy.

Washington, Nov. 7.-Vice Presi
dent Marshall visited the information
al labor conference late today, max
ing a short address and shaking hands
with the delegates. The visit came
as surprise, at moment when the
labor delegates were putting for
ward amendments to the convention
on hours of work
Announcing that he spoke for no
body but himself, the Vice President
told the delegates that he occupied
the most unique position of any Off
cial on the face of the globe" for the
reason that 81 am without power or
authority or influence"
Mr.. Marshall stated that he did not
know enough about the problems be-
fore the conference to discuss tie!
intelligently.
81 have troubles enougn Of my
own," he said, adding, amid laughter
and applause, 81 preside over the
Senate Of the United States"
''But have some idea as to how
relations of labor and capital are to
be solved" he said, "and l cannot
help saying this to you:
'sFor Gods sake, get at the solus.
ton of these problems in spirit of
amity and concord and friendship
and common human sympathy"
The Vide President objected to
referring to legislation in the interest
of the 'laboring class" or any other
class saying: II object to classes in
a world where God made man." He
proceeded to classify legislation into
two groups, the first being that
which lacks the support of the people
and, therefore, creates trouble and
turmoil, and the second, or success
full, sort, (Which seeks to crystalline
into the law of the land the public
opinion of the country" His closing
statement was wish that a golden
mean" might be reached in the con-
ference after radicals" and econ
had expressed their
views.
In offering a motion to thank Vice
President Marshall for his address,
George N. Barnes, member of the
British war ministry and govern
ment delegate, said he regretted the
absence of President Wilson, who, he
said, had made "such magnificent
efforts on behalf of the democracies
of the world"
The conference, before adjourning
until Monday, accepted an invitation
from Secretary Daniels to make trip
tomorrow 'on the Mayfower to
Mount Vernon.

true in every other county Of the
state to a greater or less degree. In
this connection it is significant that
the great bulk of the changes noted
consisted of increases, indicating that
assessors, as rule, are more than
conservative when it comes to ap-
praising property for the purposes of
taxation"
That the 1919 money and credits
assessment must show a decided in
crease over that of last year was i'm
pressed upon the assessors by Mr..
Ives. He said that in 1917 the total
for the state was $284,968,875 and
in 1913 it was $33O,30O,219. This
substantial increase came despite the
very large amounts invested by the
people in tax free government bonds
and the large outlays for the Red
Cross and other war activities. In
this county the 1917 assessment was
$630,184 and that of 1913 $835,529.
The local assessment for money on
deposit was only $419,O11 in 1918
while the bank reports of June 20
of that year showed a total deposit
in the county Of $2,041, 500. "These
figures" said the speaker, indicate
that there are many who fail to make
complete report of their money and
credits despite the very small tax on
this class of property, and assessors
were urged to see to it that the re-
turns this year show very material
gain over those of 1918.
''The county is full of money, peo-
pie everywhere are richer and more
prosperous than ever before If the
bank statements mean anything at
all'' asserted Mr.. Ives. "No honest
man will fail to make complete ex-
hibit of his money and credits and
no dishonest man can afford to take
the risk of being charged with per-
jury, penitentiary offense, in order
to escape all or portion of this very
light tax"
! Mr.. Ives continued by reviewing
all of the tax laws with the assessors.
He encouraged the asking of ques-
tions and many of the problems
which confront the assessor on his
daily rounds were discussed.
A new assessors manual was dis
tributed. This was prepared by the
tax commission and each assessor In
the state is to receive copy. The
manual contains all the laws affect
ing assessment and equalization and
under each section there is series
of questions and answers in cate
chism style explaining every possible
inquiry as to the Interpretation OF
the section with which the assessor
may be confronted.

training there for a period Of about
six weeks, was then sent to Camp
Upton and three weeks later, on
September 9th to be exact, started
on his voyage across the sea. He
landed at Liverpool and after a brief
rest was sent on to France. He was
brought up to the front almost i'm
mediately and was in the lines for
three weeks on the Argonne sector
near Verdun. On October 10th, he
was slightly wounded in several

County Pioneer Dead

Another name has been stricken
from the ever lessening roll of our
early pioneer settlers and after near
ly sc years of useful life, John F.
Halbe, one of the most widely known
and highly respected farmers of this
community and Stevens county,
passed away at his home two miles
north of Chokio last Saturday eve
ming, after lingering illness of
nearly six months caused by chronic
liver trouble.
Mr.. Halbe would have been 66
years old had he lived until June
18th, and has been resident of this
community for over forty years. He
was born in st. Louis, Missouri, June
18th, 1853 and lived there until he
was IA years old, when the family
moved to Alton, Illinois. In 1878 he
came to Minnesota and in 1881 filed
on homestead and tree claim, which
is the present site of the Halbe home
After spending two years on his
homestead and having two straight
crop failures, Mr.. Halbe gave up
farming for two years and went rail-
roading. In 1885 he was married to
Elizabeth Kiernan at Norris and
moved back to his homestead where
he has since resided. He was man
of generous impulses and never forgot
the hospitable ways Of the pioneer
and in death will long be remembered
as man who enjoyed the highest
community esteem.
Besides a host of friends and rela-
tives he leaves a wife and five chill
dren, Frances e. Halbe Of Morris,
Henry, Edward, Mae and Alice, who
reside with their parents.-Chokio
