All Topeka people interested in art,
and since the exhibit at Washburn
it seems that there are many, will be
pleased to learn that Gutzom Borglum,
the famous sculptor Of New York City.
will come to Topeka tomorrow after
noon and will lecture in the Washburn
chapel at $3.50 o'clock. Mr.. Borglum
is in Kansas City today and it was
learned only last night that he could
come to Topeka. Considerable expense
is incurred in bringing this artist and
as there is little time for notification
it is the hope of those responsible that
Topeka people will realize the oppor-
tunity it is for them to hear Borglum
and will come to his lecture.
A few years ago the Art guild mad

enthusiastically received in Topeka.
Mr.. Merrell Gage now of Kansas City.
studied with Borglum and worked in
his studio for several years. The Fine
Arts institute of Kansas City brought
him there for his lecture this after
noon.
Mrs. L. D. Whittemore and her art
class, with the cooperation of the Art
guild and the fine arts department of
Washburn college, are sponsoring this
undertaking. The public is most cor
daily invited to attend.

NEW TAX RATE MAY
NOT AFFECT RENTS
Bills Under Increased Scale
Not Due Until May,
1921.

The increase from $3.50 to $1.95 in
pected to affect rents in the District
Immediately, in the opinion of a
realty broker with whom the new
rate was discussed last night.
The increased rate. it was pointed
out, was fixed for only one year. be-
ginning July 1, and the tax bills at
the new rate will not be due until
May. 1921.
In requiring the District to meet
60 per cent of the expenses of the
National Capital for the ensuing
fiscal year. instead of the time-hon-
ored half-and-half plan. Congress did
not settle permanently the question
of financial relations between the
federal and District governments.
The House and Senate confereeS
merely compromised on the 60-40 ra-
ito to break the deadlock on the Dis
trict appropriation bill and permit its
passage before adjournment.
The whole question will have to be
taken up by Congress again upon it's
return and an effort made to deter
mine definitely what part of the ex-
penses of the capital city the United
States should bear.
The fact that the new tax rate is
not payable until next spring is the
basis for the belief that the increase
will not be reflected in rents gener-
ally at this time.
The new tax rate applies to tan
eible personal property also, but not
to intangible property tax.

STATUTORY CLERKS
SEEKPAy INCREASE
Method of Procedure Debat-
ed at Conference-TWo 4.
Plans Suggested.

Plans to obtain higher pay in the
next District appropriation bill were
discussed at meeting of statutory
employees of the city government in
the board room of the District build
ing yesterday afternoon.
Most of the afternoon was devoted
to discussion of whether it would
be wiser to ask Congress, through
the Commissioners. for a fiat per-
centage increase, or to ask for the
rates of pay which the District work
ers would receive under the plan of
the reclassification commission. No
decision was reached.
1t was decided to compile a table
showing present salaries OF the $500
statutory employees. what these en-
pIoyes would receive if the recon-
mendations of the reclassification
commission were enacted into law
and what they would receive from a
FAT percentage increase. It has been
suggested that the percentage In
crease. il that plan is adopted, should
be 33 Ia per cent.
It is probably that the statutory
clerks will request the Commission
ers to ask for higher pay in some
form when they prepare their next
estimates to Congress in September.
DR.. George F. Bowerman of the
public library, in a brief talk at yes
terday's session. urged the city work.
ers not to seek a fiat percentage
raise, but to ask Congress to give
them the rates of pay they would re-
ceiye under reclassification.
Joseph H. Hurley asserted that the
annual employees of the District gov
ernment receive an average of 20 per
cent less than the clerks in the fed
eral departments.
John Ritchie. jr.. chief clerk Of the
building inspectors office, presided.

PRESCRIPTIONS FORGED
TO GET LIQUOR SUPPLY
Use of Name of Reputable Ply
sicians Causes Arrest of Capitol
Heights, Md, Man.

A stray book of prescription blanks
issued by the federal prohibition di-
rector to physicians authorized to
prescribe liquor is responsible for
Alvin Gray of Capitol Heights, Md,
being locked up at the ninth precinct
police station.
The blanks were lost last Tuesday
by DR.. Frank Abbott of 1901 e street
northeast, and shortly thereafter
there was a marked increase in the
number of prescriptions calling for
one pint of whisky presented at drug
stores in the northeast section. The
name signed to them was that of a
reputable physician of Washington,
except that the middle initial was
wrong.
Sergt. Lawton of the ninth precinct
notified all of the drug stores in that
precinct to be on the lookout for
any person presenting such a pre-
scription, and late yesterday after
noon was informed by telephone that
a man was waiting at a drug store
near Sth and H streets northeast for
such an order to be filled. The officer
hurried to the place and arrested
Gray. According to Sergt. Lawton,
Gray said he found the blanks last
Tuesday and had filled out twenty
eight of them. He has been charged
with violating the federal prohibition
act and will be arraigned tomorrow.

CHARGES DANIELS

CONTINUED from First Page.)

though they honestly desired the re-
wards and promotions of their career
which all honorable men reasonab ably
desire. they were not willing to sacri-
fice their character, their manhood
and their country And as a result
Mr.. Daniels determined to break
them by the use of all the power of
his high office. by the use of the
power of ridicule, sarcasm and half
truths, that as a newspaper man he
has learned how to use so skillfully,
by the use of the strength of pub
licity secured through his newspaper
connections. all the weapons which
Prussianism used to destroy it's en-
emies and autocracy has used through
the ages to maintain it's power.
IN my opinion all credit is due to
these men that they have fought unto
the end and upheld the standard of
uprightness, loyalty to country, self
sacrifice, hard work and gentlemanly
conduct, attributes that the ideal
naval officer has always revered.
Il have no desire in this letter to
bring out my personal experiences
with Mr.. Daniels, but he knows of
them. and he knows. if he knows the
difference between right and wrong,
that he has been dishonest; that he
has been autocratic; that he has
abused his power; that he has done all
this for unworthy motives"

Such advice is today supported
by the best in the medical
profession, and by sanitarians
and professors of hygiene whose
aim is the prevention of sick
ness. And we are prepared to
defend this position and will send
literature with proofs on applica-
ton to US.
Milk and cream are now more
generally pasteurized in the
United States under municipal
ordinances, and the practice has
everywhere resulted in reducing
infantile mortality and has i'm
proved general health conditions.

ANNAPOLIS BRANCH.
Proposed Transfer to Short
Line Railway Would I'M
prove Service.

Abandonment of the Annapolis
branch of the Washington. Baltimore
and Annapolis electric railway and
establishment of quarter or half
hourly train service between Wash
sideration by officials of the railway
company, according to reports ema-
mating last night in Baltimore. Local
officials admitted that they have
heard of the reported change, al
though formal confirmation could not
be obtained
The development is said to be the
outcome of the hearings now being
held in Baltimore before the public
service commission for an increase
in rates for the W.. B. & A. Co. and
the Annapolis Short Line.
1t is said that the Annapolis Short
Line will take over the tracks of the
W. b. & A. Co. from Linthicum to
Baltimore, using the terminal on
Liberty street which the latter COM
pany will abandon when its new sta
ton, at Pratt and Eutaw streets, is
completed.
COudl Use All Equipment.
Under this arrangement, it is
pointed out. the w. b. & A Co. will
have available its full equipment of
cars for operation between this city
and Baltimore, enabling it to main
tain a fifteen minute schedule be-
tween the two cities.
Verification of the rumored agree
ment could not be obtained last night
at the office of either the Annapolis
Short Line or the w, b. & A COM
pany, in Baltimore. 1t is given a GER
tain amount of confederation, how
ever, by the fact that Edwin j. Baet-
Jer, representing the short line in its
hearings before the public service
commission. has Joined the w, B. & A
as its representative.
At the Office of the Washington pas
senger agent for the electric line, at
14th street and New York avenue, it
was stated that word had come of
the proposed change, but that nothing
official had been received here in this
connection.
Transportation Increase Seen.
With the completion of new termi-
nal facilities in this city and Balti-
more and the reported establishment
of frequent train service, transporta-
tion of passengers and freight by the
electric line will be greatly increased.
Sharp competition with steam roads.
it is said, probably will follow.
Work on the new loop at 18th street
and New York avenue is scheduled to
begin shortly. Brick buildings in the
block bounded by 18th. H and 11th
streets and New York avenue already
are being raZed. The proposed loop
will do away with the present term
inal at 18th street and New York
avenue and result in relief of con-
gestion at the intersection.

Proper Amends.

CHICAGO. June 26 (by the Associated

Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, to-
day began work in an effort to bring
back into the brotherhood ranks the

tive average wage increase for the
various crafts Of 22 per cent. Mem
bers of the board refused to corrobo-
