HINES TO SEIZE

: BY RAILROADS
Decision to = Presidents
War Power in ling Profit

REQUIREMENTS URGENT

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-Director Gen
eral Walker D. Hines of the railroad
administration has definitely decided to
employ the presidents war powers to
commander all possible steel rail pro-
duction to supply the needs Of the roads,
instead of bidding in the open market
for the product of the mills. This be-
came known today, as the details of Mr..
Hines new policy as 1t affects big orders
at the various mills were announced.
Tonnage Of steel rails Communicated
at the various mills, by the war de-
partment. at Director General Hines re-
quest, will be al follows:
- Midvale Steel and Ordnance Company,
$4,000 tons; Bethlehem Steel Company,
10000 tons; Carnegie Steel Company,
1900 toms; Illinois Steel Company,
1900 tons, and Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad Company, 1900 tons.
MOVE SURPRISE
TO STEEL BARONs.
Steel manufacturers have met Mr..
Hines latest move with surprise and
from somC quarters protest was reg
fgeered. some Of them regarding Hines
move dfsapprovingly, because it is be-
lieyed it is aimed particularly at those
manufacturers who are asking $57 a ton
for open hearth rails.
This figure is SO ton more than
the sterilization price agreed upon be-
tween the industrial board and the steel
manufacturers a year ago.
BIG RAIL SUPPLY
NEEDED At ONCE.
The reason for MIR. Hines new policy
was clear when it was shown that the
railroad administration needs badly
$4,000 steel rails, which it would like
to have before the roads go back to
private control March l.
With orders previously placed by
Hines for 1880 and the 1850 tons
which will be forthcoming under the
Communicating order of the secretary of
war, the railroad administration still
viii owe the roads 10000 tons, as a
replacement item.
Mr.. Hines indicated he would rather
give rails than cash before the date for
the roads to go back.

report to the general assembly in 1912,
THE only chance to enforce the law, as
written was lost with the first assess
ment." 1t is a well known historical fact
that the administration of the 1891 tax
law was a failure. The breaking down
of the machinery for the effective en-
forcement and administration of this law
had become so pronounced and notori-
Gus, that the state tax board in 1912
called attention to it, and likened it to
a ship without a rudder.
"The appellants contend that in the
consideration of this appeal we should
take into consideration the historical
background leading up to and surround
ing the enactment of the present law ;
that we should consider the aims and
purposes of the old law: the failure and
breaking down of the administrative ma
chinery; the object and purposes sought
to be accomplished by the present law
and then, if possible, so construe and in
terpret it as to accomplish the pur-
poses which the Legislature had in mind
when it was enacted. When the legis-
lature of 1919 convened the public was
demanding relief from the gsaring In
edualities Of the then system of taxa
ton. The old tax law had been in
force for nearly thirty years and had
been failure from the day Of its pass
age. 1t required that all property should
be assessed at its full value, but be-
cause of the inability on the part of the
state board to enforce the provisions
of the law, the valuation for assessment
in some parts Of the state was as low
as 13 per cent of the actual value. Hun
dreds of millions of dollars Of intangible
property were In hiding and escaping
taxation. In some parts of the state the
rate of taxation was near Sc on each 500
of the assessed valuation. The stua-
ton was appalling and the public was
demanding that the system be strength
ened by providing a way TO Offset it.
1--WE do not deem it necessary TO enter
into any discussion of the power Of the
state tax board to make the order Of
which. complaint is made, but we may
say in this connection that We are not
prepared to hold that it did not have
such power. We prefer to place our de-
cision on the broad ground Of jurisdic-
ton and public policy, that all may
know when equity will not interfere to
enioin the collection Of public revenue.
LIFE OF GOVERNMENT
DEPENDS ON TAXES.
Every one will admit that the life
and existence of government depend

the inherent powers of governments and
requires no constitutional authority for
the enactment of statutes concerning the
levy and collection of taxes Govern
mentg can not exist without their reve-
nues, and taxes are levied and contribu-
tions enforced upon the principle that
they are but just returns for the pro-
| lection and advantage derived from them.

Der Of reasons The main reasons urged
against the validity of the order are ~
that the state board has no power or
authority to equalize assessments between
different townships and taxing units in
the same county, and that it can only
equalize by counties. 81 That the state
board, in equalizing the assessments of
the various counties, shall consider the
following classes of property separately,
VIZ, railroads, lands. town and city lots
and personal property, and on such con-
sideration can equalize only by adding to
or deducting from the aggregate value Of
said several classes (Acts 1919. Sec. 1872,
page 1922 That the state board has no
power or authority to increase the value
of lands and lots at one rate and the i'm
provements thereon at a different rate
90 That the state board has no power or
authority to divide personal property into
classes and to increase the asSt sment on
certain classes. That in equalizing the
assessment On personal property it can do
so only by adding to or deducting from
thesaggregate value of all personal prop

we are very much pleased with the
decision" Fred A. Sims, chairman of the
state tax board, said, in commenting on
the action of the court. He said he had
not had the opportunity to go over the
decision thoroughly and that he could
make no further statement concerning 1t
at this time.
ORDERED INCREASES
IN EVERY COUNTY.
| The state board Of tax commissioners
ordered horizontal increases in valuations
/ in every county in the state In a number
of counties suits were brought to enjoin
the collection OF taxes based on these
( increases.
In Marion county farmers living in
1 eight of the nine townships brought suit
to enjoin the collection Of these taxes.
Judge Linn D. Hay of the superior court
issued such an injunction Dec. ). BY its
provisions the horizontal increases could
be certified 10 the county treasurer, but
they could not be collected by him. This
prevented the collection OF any taxes in
Marion county, although under the PRO
visions of the law, taxes are payable Jan.
l Of each year.
Judge Hay ruled that the state tax
board did not issue its order equalizing
/ assessments under any direct power
granted the board to consider the matter
OF equalization of assessments and that
no reassessment was made according to
/ the provisions of the statute as to the
way such reassessments should be made,
but that they were made contrary to the
/ statute by reason Of classification, dis
termination and exception in making such
/ res assessments"
BOARD CAN NOT
lREASsEsS BY TOWNSHIPS.
The lower court held that the state
tax board had no authority TO make re-
assessments by townships because this
authority Is vested in the county board
of review He ruled that the county
board OF review primarily has the power
/ to equalize assessments In different town
ships and that the state board has the
power and authority to equalize the
assessed value of property, real and per
sonal, among the counties of the state
Judge Hay held that this is the only
power the tax board possesses in equal
izing assessments. He decided that the
void order referring to the order for

one and held that the plaintiffs were en-
titled to relief in a court Of equity. 1t
held that there was nothing in the act
or the history of legislation intended to
confer the power upon the state tax com
imissioners that is exercised in the order
herein complained Of"
The case was Immediately appealed by
the state board of tax commissioners TO
the appellate court, Hearing was rnsned
through in order that q decision might
be reached before the conclusion of the
period during which taxes may be paid.

many of them have again announced
that they will label all seed they sell.
Practically all large seed houses
now have facilities for testing the
quality Of all lots Of seeds that they
buy and sell. They have, therefore,
the information that the farmer needs,
and he should insist upon being given
this information when he buys seeds.
Few farmers are willing to buy low
grade seed, containing much chaff,
dirt, weed seeds, and dead seeds-if
they know how poor it is. The deal
er, however, almost invariably makes
his largest profit on the lower grade
of seed he sells and is not always will
ing to put on a truthful label. The
farmers protection lies in buying only
labeled seeds.
Farmer May Protect Himself.
The farmer, however, may do a
great deal toward protecting himself
by testing seeds at home. Testing

All kinds of farm seeds may be sub

but the seeds of the crops in most
