EXPERT CONFERS
| WITH TAX BOARD

J. Monroe Fitch, of Muncie, special
representative of the state tax COM
mission, spent Tuesday in Richmond
making up a report of the Wayne
county tax valuations for use by the
state board, and in comforting with
the county board of review.
The valuations. will be used by the
state board to determine whether
Wayne has been assessed fairly in
comparison with other counties of the
state, said Fitch. He would not say
whether he believed the local 1919
valuations to be high or low, as he
has to make his report to the state
board first.
However, he said that some coun-
ties of the 20 he has visited had gone
up about 200 percent, and others had
not reached Wayne's expected figure
of 100 percent increase. The state
board may take drastic action on
some of the counties which are low

that while the liquor traffic was a

Mr.. Wheeler said:

p1wer to enact a law. it also has the
power to enact additional LEGISLATION

Modern Craft.

London, Aug. 4-London's dizzy
fortnight's celebration Of the peace
came TO colorful climax today when
King George headed a mile long pro-
cession Of water craft up the Thames,
with millions Of cheering subjects
crowding every inch Of both banks.
The pageant was designed as a
tribute to the horses OF the merchant
marine and the volunteer fighters in
the fishing fleet who hunted u-boats.
The water procession included an
ivory colored royal barge with a
crimson canopy in which the King.
Queen and the Prince of Wales rode.

Thames more than two hundred
years ago when William Of Orange
and Queen Mary rode triumphantly

Woolsey with the royal standard

PEELED by eight oarsmen in scarlet
coats and peaked hats. 1t led the
parade over the historic waterway.
The Lord Mayors barge, in black
and gold. was another survival of
the dim past In it also were oars
men who wore the quaint eighteenth
century garb of a lord mayors
riverman. In the middle OF the pro-
cCssiOn was a towed float bearing a
16-inch naval gun. This gun was
used in the bOmbardment of the
Belgian coast. 1t is the latest word
in modern ordnance. Squatting be-

Twenty thousand railroad shopmen
are already on strike because of
neagre wages, Mr.. Jewell said, and
the union officials were unable to say
whether or not they could be per-
suaded to return to work.
The situation" he explained, lis
one where the reins have got out
of our hands. Every time we reach
away"
The strike vote ordered for the shop
men asks each worker whether or not
he s willing to stick to the old
claims, the wage demand made last
January. and IL he favors the pro-
gram of the President and the Direc-
tor General Of Railroads for the crea-
ton of a wage board.
1T is apparent" asserted Mr.. Jewell,
that there will be an overwhelming
vote against the Hines-wilson pro-
gram"
Jewell said there were 400, 900 mem
bers of the shopmen's- union in the
United States and 10000 in Canada.
Demands of Other Employees.
Close on the heels of a threat by
the shopnen to strike came a state
ment from J. J. Forester. grand pres
idept of the Brotherhood of Railway
and Steamship Clerks, Freight Hand
lers, Express and Station Employees,
an organization numbering $4,000 men,
bers. whose demands for a wage in
crease have been presented to the
Director General of Railroads. The
latter is powerless to grant an in
crease Immediately because he lacks
authority.
The demand OF the shopmen was
munication from the heads OF the
letter follows:
US to pursue. That Is to submit to
the entire membership the proposition
as II has been presented to US by the
Director General with a request that
by their vote they shall decide what
further action they may deem neces-
sary to secure the much-needed relief.
We are in accord with the thought
that an increase in wages of itself
will not altogether solve the problem,
but it is well to bear in mind that
the classes of employees herein re-
ferred to, and for whom We speak.
and we believe justly so, are entitled
to an increase in wages, which will
restore them to the same relative po-
sition as compared to their feAow-
members employed in outside indus
tries"
The Senate Interstate Commerce
Committee, it was announced yester-
day, will meet today to propose an
investigation to ascertain relations
between higher wages given railroad
brotherhoods and cost of living in
their separate communities.
