COLLECTOR KLUND
REBUKED IN LETTER
FROM COL. SLOWER
Latter Tells Council Former Shows
Spirit of Antagonism, and No
Cooperation.
HAD CRITICIZED BOARD

Col Weller L. Slower, president of the
Board of Assessment, casuticallv rebuked
Wilmer III. klund, collector of taxes for
the Northern District, in q letter pre-
sented to City Council, last night. In his
letter Colonel Slower declared ''there
never has been any spirit of cooperation
manifested by the present collector of
the northern district, but rather spirit
OF antagonlsm and unfair criticism" In
his conclusion Colonel Slower writes 'the
interests of the city will be best served if
the collector of the northern district will
attend strictly to his own business and
that OF the Office to which he was elected,
and we trust that Council will use its
influence toward attaining that end" Mr.
blund received severe rebuke for his
criticism of the work of the board in de-
termlnlng assessments
The communication was received and
filed with the unanimous approval of
Council. There was no comment on its
contents. The letter quotes two contra
dictory statements of Mr.. Klund which
appeared IN the newspapers. In the first
article, which appeared August IA, 1919,
MIR. klund is quoted as saying that "the
city might secure quite an increase in
taxation by raising assessments" On
March 20 of this year, MIR Klund is
quoted as saying in an interview: 'The
assessment on small houses is too high.
| do not think the method used for
ascertainlng values is proper"
COLONEL sTovER's LETTER
Colonel Stovers statement follows:
ut is difficult to understand whv Mr..
klund has had such a radical change of
heart between the two dates mentioned.
1T is indeed unfortuna te that Mr..
klund does not approve of the Whining
ton method of assessing real estate. The
system used in Wilmington is modifica-
tion of the methods used in New York,
Newark, n. j., and other cities Mr. Law
son Purdy, president of the New York
City Board of Assessment, will doubtless

spring of a system which las proven so
satisfactory in that city has met with the
dIsapproVal Of MIR klund.

ment have endeavorcd to perform their
duties fairly and impartiaily. and have
considered the values of properties alone.

Truck Pneumatics
Do Not Puncture

One phase of the use of pneuma-
tic truck tires which has worried the
truck owner to no small degree IS
the possibility of punctures.
Regarding punctures," says w. ".
Logan, manager of the pneumatic
truck tire department of the United
States Tire Company, Our records
show that an owner need not have a
moments worry about them. l have
records of trucks operated in prac-
tically every class Of business, show
ing that pneumatic truck tires have
been in service anywhere from one
year to two and one-half years, and
during the entire time have never
been off the rims
The rural free delivery division
of the United States Post Office De-
partment operates a fleet of trucks
on pneumatics that is probably
larger than any other in the coun-
try. They have had SO few pune
lures that they no longer believe 1t
necessary to carry spares.
LAS for mileage, l find in our
records reports on set after set of
tires which have rendered better
than 10000 miles. We have records
through the United States in prac-
tically every class of service of from
10000 to $4,000 miles, and those of
1000 to $4,000 were in extremely
hard service The United States

NEED NOT HAVE HESlTATEp
Enraptured Maiden Was Eager for
Question lowering on the Lips
Of Fond Lover.

The dance was over, and now, as
Rupfield tenderly helped her on with
her wraps the question that had been
burning through her brain all the
evening reached fever heat.
Would his lips ask her what his
handsome dark eyes had seemed to be
asking mutely?
She hoped so. She prayed so. She
and Rupfeld had known each other
for four months now, and never had
such a splendid opportunity for the
question offered itself.
He gulped. She trembled with an
ticipation. Why was the poor boy so
shy? Did he think for moment she
could possibly refuse him? Dear, fool
fish boy.

Important Questions

We publish elsewhere in this is
sue a communication addressed 10
the Board of Education of this coun-
ty; it contains three important ques-
lions, covering three subjects upon
which the success or failure OF the
educational system of this county
largely depends.
There have been rumors recent
ly, we trust without foundation, that
members of the County Board of Ed
ucation were not in sympathy With
modern methods of education; that
they had reduced the salary paid the
Primary Supervisor, although the
salary paid was less than the other
counties are paying; that the once
of School Attendance officer mas
practically, been abandoned by fixing
the salary so low no competent per
son would accept the position.
We believe it is an established
fact that the attendance at the pup
lie schools during the period thal
there has been no Attendance of1lce
has fallen off at least one-tentn
Estimating that there are 1000 pupils
attending the public SCHOOLS OF the
county, this means that through the
failure to Droyide an Attendance Of
fee. at least 700 children, who should
he in school, whose successful future
depends upon their securing at least
a certain amount of education, VINO
to develop to be men and women OF
less than average intelligence, shouIo
oct the minimum amount of school
ing provided by law, are beng per
mitted to grow up without such eou-
cation, through failure upon the paf'
of the Board of Education TO enforce
the law.
The excuse that an appropriation
was made for such an officer cannon
be accepted unless it can be sno"n
that the appropriation was adequate
and the means of ascertalnlng me
proper amount was certainly at the
hands of the Board, either by reter'
ence to the amounts paid by othel
Boards. as shown by the annual re
port of the State Board OF Education
or by inquiry among experienced
school officials.
There has been quite little com
plant in recent years that Dorches
ter County Schools are not up 10 the
standards; the complaint seems to Of
borne out by the standing OF ne
schools of this County as compared
with those of the other twenty-five
counties of the State. There ha:
been some complaint that the mem
bers of the County Board of Educa
ton are not interested in The educa
tional system, that commencement:
and school affairs do not appeal Il
them, that they do not visit the pub
lie schools or otherwise NANTES
any interest in them. We trust ina
these complaints are unfounded.

SAYS HEALTH WORK IN
SCHOOLS IS D|GRACE

SALT LAKE CITY, July 1O.=Health
work as conducted in Americas public
schools was described as "a disgrace
to the nation" by Thomas d. Wood
member of the Columbia University
faculty. in talk to the National Edu-
cation Association convention here
"Wednesday night.
] Principles Of universal training
must. in a manner consonant with the
spirit and methods of democracy, be
interpreted and applied in the uni~er-
sal compulsory health and physical
care and training of all the children, 4"
he declared. l%lss
Children of our country deserve as
affective physical care as live stock
and as careful attention and cultiva-
tion as crops. Shall not the children
drafted by compulsory education into
our schools be assured of as skillful
and satisfactory care as soldiers in
camp and trench?
Much of the actual health care of
the children must be accomplished by
the home. by health boards and other
organizations. But the school is the
universal, the officially credited and
the strategic agency to lead in the
educational program of health.
THE most vital item in the re-
sources of any country is the welfare
and health of the children. No coun-
try is really civilized which does not
possess a national Intelligence and
sense of obligation relative to the
hea1th of the children and an effective
complete practical program of health
care for all the children of the nation.
