ALL NAVY AWARDS
STAND, SAYS BOARD
New Names Are Added, How
ever, to List of Those Re-
ceiving Decorations.

Except for the addition of new names
practically no change has been made
by the Knight board in the original
list of recommendations for award of
war service decorations, members of the
board said today. The board was re-
convened by Secretary Daniels more
than six months ago. to reconsider its
recommendations after the medal
awards controversy between Rear Ad-
miral Sims and the naval Secretary
which resulted in a Senate investiga-
tion.
The boards second report was SUBJ
mitted to Mr.. Daniels just before he
left fer San Francisco to attend the
democratic convention and he has not
Vet thoroughly examined it. When he
Teconvened the board the Secretary said
he would transmit the second report to
The President without amendment.
Center OF Controversy.
Members of the board said that in
the new list they had followed their
original recommendations with re-
gard to officers whose ships were
struck by torpedoes or mines, each
ease having been decided on it's mer-
its. OF the ten officers in this group,
only six. four of whom saved their
ships. were recommended for the dis
t1nguished service medal on the orig
inal list. Secretary Daniels changed
these awards so as to give each Off
Ger whose ship was so struck a dis
tinguishcd service medal. Much of
the medal controversy centered
around this action by the Secretary
Although Mr.. Daniels added approx
imately thirty names for award of the
distinguished service medal and more
than 100 for the Navy cross many OF
these, it was explained today by mem
bers of the board, were officers and
enlisted men who engaged in post
war mine sweeping operations and
whose claims for honors did not come
before the board when the first list
was prepared. Practically all of these
have been added TO the second list
il was said. as have others whose rec
Ords were available for the first time

tiihated the net revenues of the Dis
trict of Columbia for that year, avail
sa apde for appropriation purposes, as
ss,sS4, 4oo; Recent investigation shows
mat the amounts allowed for
certain of the items of revenue, which
now can be more definitely ascer-
tanned than at the time the original
estimate was submitted, were too low
II is now shown that the taxes on real
estate 1E per cent basis). should be
increased by s119.s00; the taxes on
tangible personal property 1h per
cent basis. including the tax on
gross earnings. by $3.50, 200: and the
taxes on intangible personal property
by $4,000. This would make the ee-
timated net revenues for 1921. $40
4a4.Sa0. instead of S9,934.450 as
reported by the Commissioners to
congress.
The total estimated collections of
revenue by the District of Columbia
during the fiscal year ending June
80, 1921. is determined as follows:
On intangible personal property $3.50 900
On tax on gross earnings and re-
ceipts a. 4, ; and per cent? l. 80 O0e

What Rate Will Produce.

"A tax rate for the fiscal year end
ing June SO, 1921. of S1.95 per 800
of the assessed value of taxable real
estate and tangible personal prop
erty. on the basis of the total esti-
mated assessments of $501. $50 900. as
reported by the assessor will produce
a revenue of s9.7s2.370. as against
SO. 9.106.s06. shown by the foregoing
statement as required to be derived
from taxation on such properties TO
meet the Districts proportion of ap-
propriations for said fiscal year The
amount derived by the application of
the sl.95 tax rate is apparently S15.S64
more than appears to be required. but
allowance must be made for non-col-
lectable items on tangible personal
property assessments of about S75.-
600 to 100000. wA4h is taken care
of in the said amount of $75.S64.
No deduction is made for nom
collection of real estate taxes, Is ex-
perience shows that items of this
character which are not collected
within given fiscal year are equal
ized by payments made within that
year OF taxes due and payable in pre-
vious fiscal years.
