 Full responsibility for the policemen s walkout was placed on Police Commis. sioner Curtis of Boston.

DIFFICULTIES OF
 TAX EQUALIZATION

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 For the past ten years or more there has been much to do and much bitter strife in getting an increase in tax re- turns to meet the obligations of the state, counties and municipalities, and under our
 system of taxation it seems that such additional revenue can be raised only by increasing the burden on holders of real estate.
 To do this many so-caled "equilization boards' have been created to "equalize values in real estate," and if values havs not been capitalized up to the present time it strikes me that it is quite a re- flection on the ability of these various boards or the task of equalzing values or real estate is an impractical one. Take this city, for instance. I have known when properties on the North Highlands were considered of more value than properties on the South Highlands and business properties east of Twen- tieth street worth more than properties west. In other words, the making of cer-
 tain improvements in this or that local ity changes the values over night, and holder of real estate in one section of 8 growing city may have all his dreams of wealth. to be derived from his in- vestment, go glimmering because the de- | velopment went the other way, and this | is true of min sral and other properties.
 
 | by witness that lot in Avondale was
 worth more than one in Woodlawn. The population of Woodlawn turned out to be larger than that of Avondale, and the
 opposition got more wtessess.
 | I have devoted all my life to the hand | ling and development of real estate, have i made settlements with the state equaliza- ton boards for the past twenty years, and I am not capitalized yet but have compromised and paid my part of the increases without a protest And now 1
 am again called before another board to be equalized. The truth of the mat ter Is, the state, county and city again need more money to function, but why go ] through this farce again? The governor 1 says the state needs about 371a per cent
 more taxable value on real and personal property to meet the existing and matur- | ing obligations, a small percentage con- | sidering the conditions now existing. No business or young enterprise can show so small an increase.
 | Now, instead of the expense, worry, | fuss and bitterness of the adjustment of values, why not back the governor up and | give him the 371e per cent increase needed, agree that an increase of 50 per cent be
 put on improved business. manufacturing and commercial properties. both real and personal. and 25 per cent on residences. farms, acreage and vacant properties, and in such manner more justly equalize tax ation under existing laws. Respectfully, RICHARD RANDOLPH POST, King Land and Improvement Co. Birmingham, June 15, 1920.

TUSCALOOSA

Tuscaloosa, June 15 = (SpeciaL)- The Tuscaloosa County Baptist Asso- citation will meet a Big Sandy Church on June 27 and several hundred will be in attendance. During the past six months the Baptists of the county have held three meetings of this kind and every phase of Sunday school work has been discussed. The main object of the meetings is for the pur- pose of assisting the teaching forces in the Sunday schools and to bring the Sabbath schools up to a higher eff cieney. Over 5000 children are ems rolled in the Sunday schools of Tus- caloosa county.
 Dick Powell, Jr., James Bell and s. K. Thompson made the round trip to Birmingham Sunday on small motor bicycles. The trip to Birmingham was made in four hours, the riders going by Ensley and Fairfield. The return trip was accomplished In three hours and forty-five minutes.

GOES TO JAIL ON CHARGE
OF AIDING IN SWINDLE
John J. Mcdonald to Answer Ac-
cusation of Fraud Perpetrated
Year Ago on p. J. Nee.

John j. Mcdonald, under Indictment
IN this city in connection with a
SWindle perpetrated upon +. j. Nee,
40 18th street was brought here yes
terday from Fort Worth, Tex, turned
over to the marshal and committed
to jail. The Indictment alleges d
$4,000 swindle. but Mr.. Nee actually
parted with $4,000.
More than a year ago the Washing
ton merchant says he met Mcdonald
and alleged confederates at Mount
Clemens, Mich, where they reported
finding d pocketbook containing a
sum of money and a certificate show
ing the owner possessed seat in the
New York Stock Exchange.
The reputel owner, an alleged con-
federate of Mcdonald. was found. He
was willing to pay a large sum of
money as a reward to the finders of
the pocketbook, but Mcdonald would
listen to no such offer.
Refusal to take the money cement
ed the friendship the alleged swim
dler is charged with having desired
and the holder of the bogus certificate
offered to take the men to Detroit
and assist them to make a killing
in stocks.
The killing was made, but Nee
was called upon to make showing
that he could have settled if he had
lost. This he was easily able TO do
and the result was that he turned
over $4,000 to the alleged swindlers
in this city and an additional 5000
in Philadelphia.
Mcdonald and Charles Gerber,
alias Goldie,. were arrested in Fort
Worth in connection with a big swim
die. They were convicted and SEN
fenced to ten years Imprisonment.
according to the police. and McDon-
aid was at liberty on an appeal bond
when he was arrested and brought
here.
