GET To WORK, ADVICE
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 80. - Europe
in SO far as the United States govern
ment Is concerned, must rely upon
her own resources in retrieving a
financial equilibrium. st
This was the Interpretation of the
letter Secretary of the Treasury Glass
has sent to a committee Of the Cham
Der of Commerce of the United States,
which sought a government express
sion on the proposed International
conference of fnanciers and CONNER.
cial leaders to discuss reconstruction
problems.
In blunt statement of the facts as
he sees them, Mr.. Glass declared, "the
American government has done all
that it believes advisable and practic-
able to aid Europe" The conference,
he added, would serve Ito cause con-
fusion and revive hopes, doomed to
disappointment, of further govern
ment loans.''
Government Must be Left Out.
The treasury department does not
oner objection" Mr.. Blass said, 'aif the
chamber of commerce of the United
States which has charge of the details
or the conference, wishes to name del
egates to an informal conference, pro-
vlded the scope and character and
| limitations OF such a conference. as
well as the impossibility of United
States government action are clearly
| understood"
"1f the people and governments of
Europe" Mr. Glass declared. Give
within their incomes, increase their
| production as much as possible and
limit their imports to actual necessi-
! ties, foreign credits to caver adverse
balances, would most probably be sun
piled by private investors and the de-
mand to resort to such impracticable
methods as government loans and
bank credits would cease
| The American people should not in
my opinion be called upon to finance
and would not in my opinion respond
to a demand that they finance the re.
quirements of Europe, in SO far as
they result from the failure to take
necessary steps for the rehabilitation
of credit
Reduce German Indemnity.
There is no more logical or prac.
tlcal step toward solving their indem-
nifty claims against Germany by re-
duclng these claims to a determinate
amount, which Germany may reason
ably be expected to pay. The main
tenance of claims which cannot be
paid causes apprehension and serves
no useful purpose"
Since the signing of the armistice
Mr. Glass pointed out the treasury
has made direct advances of s2.3sO..
$4,000 to the allied governments, and
IN addition has made available $685.

ESCAPE
REPORTED; CLASHES
MARK OCCUPATION
(Rv Associated Press)

HONOLULU, T. H., Jan. 30Admiral
Kolchak is reported to have escaped
from the Bolsheviki and to be in hid
ing in Manchuria, according. to To-
kio dispatch to the Japanese news
paper Nippu Juji here.
LONDON, Thursday, Jan. 29-Dif-
ficulties of supply have probably STOP
ped the advance of Bolshevik troops
along the trans Siberian railroad west
of Irkutsk, according to advices to the
war office. All resistance seems to
have disappeared. Detachments are
reported to have reached the Chinese
frontier southeast of Bilsk.
An outline of the difficulties en-
countered by allied missions is given
in reports received here. Armored
trains under the command Of General
Sememnoff, bombarded Irkutsk on
Dec 80, when the city was partially in
possession of insurgents. Then Sem
enoff troops attacked and captured
the railway station but were forced
to retire. The allied missions were
in the station but were unable to in
duce Semenoff's men to postpone their
attack, although they violated the
agreement that the railroad should be
considered neutral territory.
Ask for Armistice
Representatives of Admiral kol-
chak's government asked on Jan.
that the allied officers mediate with
the insurgents in an effort to secure
an armistice of thirty-six hours. This
was done and the missions announced
that allied troops would not intervene
in the conflict between the factions.
\ l., s1l. I~l 0lof IN, ~
to internal Russian politics. In the
meantime virtually all of Kolchak' s
troops joined the insurgents and when
the allied representa- tives left Irkutsk
on Jan. it was evident the govern
ment's cause was lost.
Latest reports seem to show that
relations between the new govern
ment and the Czecho-Slovaks have be-
come worse and that Bolshevism ap-
pears to be gaining ground as re-
| suit of the arrival of red agents work
ing in front of the Bolshevik army
| Encounters between Semenoff's
troops and Czech detachments are re
ported and it is stated Admiral Kol
chak and his staff have been in prison
at Irkutsk.
In South Russia the Bolsheviki have
resumed their advance against Gen
Denikine. On the western half of the
front the main effort of the Soviet
troops appears to be directed south
ward against Crimea, and southwest
ward against the Kherson-Nikolaieff
Odessa area.
| Anti-Bolshevik forces have beer
compelled to evacuate the city of Der
| bent on the west coast of the Caspian
sea, according to a wireless despatch
received here from Moscow.

HORIZONTAL
TAX RAISES
ARE UPHELD
State Appellate Court Up
holds Tax Commissioners in
Increasing Valua lions -
Hay Decision Reversed.
BOARD HAS AUTHORITY
(By Associated Press)


INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Jan. 30.-The
appellate court today handed down an
opinion upholding the state board of
tax commissioners in the Washington
township case, in which the farmers
OF that locality attacked the author
ity of the commissioners to make hor.
izontal increases in assessments on
parts of the counties.
In upholding the tax board, the APPEL
late court reversed decision of Judge
Lynn d. Hay, Of the Marion superior
court.
The constitutionality of the law was
not in question. The Washington
township farmers alleged that the
state board had no authority to make
;, horizontal increases.
"The appellate court decision was
fortunate from our standpoint" said
Howard Brooks, county auditor, Fri
day.
"If the decision had been rendered
against the state board Of tax com
missioners, the auditor and treasurer
of every county would have had to
make the deduction of the fate rise
percentage from all taxables.
I'm case the horizontal increases
would have had to be deducted, very
few if any taxing units would have
sufficient funds to meet the years ex
penses."
