meeting. The resolutions were sen
to the school board to use as the,

dents may lose their pos ition will
accredited colleges on account of tn,
condition Of the building, and give:
unanimous endorsement to the bono

The resolution was passed Decem
Der 2, and is given herewith:
Wheaeas, the board of directors
of the Keokuk Chamber of Com
merce have found by examination
that the present facilities of the
Keokuk high school are sadly lack
ing, that they are Inadequate, and
that the class room and sanitary
conditions are not such that they
would pass the required number
of credits to allow its graduates to
enter certain colleges and univer-
sites in this section of the coun-
try; and
Whereas, the board of education
of the city of Keokuk is present
ing to the voters of Keokuk a
request for bond issue for the
erection of new high schol on
plat of ground located on Main
' street between 14th and 18th
streets, which is to be modern in
every respect and sufficiently large
enough to accommodate children
to take care of the normal growth
of keokuk; therefore
Be 1t Resolved that the directors
of the Chamber of Commerce I'm
aniInously endorse the action Of
the board of education in propos-
ing the said bond issue, and
Be 1t Further Resolved that they
approve the location Of the plat of
ground purchased by the board Of
education as being the best avail
able plat near the center of the
city, and
Be 1t finally resolved that copy
of these resolutions be sent to the
board of education to be made
public by them as they see fit.
Resolutions were adopted by the
Unity club and as early as last June
the Keokuk Commercial club, at a
meeting at Hamilton, declared Itself
favorable to the erection of a new
school to adequately house the Keo
kuk high school classes.

PRICE CHANGES
BY LEGISLATION
Opinion That II Congress Was Un.
able to Lower Prices, 1t Can
Do Nothing to Keep
Them Up.
rBy Herbert W. Walker, United Press
Staff Correspondent

IBy Herbert W. Walker, United Press
Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-After be-
ing besieged for two years for de-
mands to edo something" to reduce
living costs, congress today finds
itself confronted with various groups
demanding legislation which would
check declines in prices.
Federal loans, as the result OF
which farmers could hold their prod
ncts for higher prices, embargoes on
wool and meat products, tariff walls
SO high that all foreign products
would be kept out of the country,
and legislation which would prevent
American importers from taking ad-
vantage of the exchange situation to
buy cheap1y in European markets,
are among the demands that have
been made on congress within
week, and indications are that an
equal number of similar suggestions
will pour in this week.
Regardless Of the merit of some OF
the measures. the opinion apparently
is growing in congress that since

SHIPPERS MUST
PAY THIS TAX
Internal Revenue Department Rules
on Demurrage Charge Being Sub
ject to Additional Tariff Under
War Revenue Act

Shippers in Keokuk will be inter
ested in the recent decision from the
internal revenue department to the
effect that demurrage charges are
subject to tax applying on transpoT-
tation charges.
James NJ. Baker, deputy commits
sioner of internal revenue, has writ
ten that Treasury department order
No. 1922 has been revoked and it is
now held that all demurrage charges
are subject to the tax imposed under
section 500 of the revenue act of
1918"
Evidently claims that have been
presented should be cancelled and it
will be a waste OF time and money
to present claims in the future for
refunds Of war taxes paid on demur-
rage in view Of the reversal OF its
decision by the treasury department.

NOT IN FAVOR
OF AGREEMENT
Secretary Daniels Does Not Approve
of England, Japan and United
States Reducing Sea
Power Just Now.

IUmted Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 An
agreement between England, Japan
and the United States to limit naval
ornaments does not meet the favor
of Secretary Daniels, the secretary
told newspapermen today.
Daniels said he would indorse an
understanding to reduce sea power
only in event it was world wide in
character An agreement among any
certain powers would appear toe
much like an alliance, and would
arouse suspicious of other nations
he said.
The secretary indicated that when
he goes before the house naval
affairs committee to report his
naval construction program he
will urge that an incrcAse of the
American navy is imperative until
the United States enters a world
wide disarmament agreement
