VIEWS OF LAYMEN

'
Mankato, MINI, March ITO The
Free Press: In your report of the
council proceedings it is stated by w.
e. Olsen, secretary of the Civic and
Commerce association, the PROPOSE
tion to build a new armory under
present conditions and with the pros
pect of still higher taxes, was favored
by a majority of taxpayers and that
the Klwanis club not only favored,
but presented flve-s sixths of them.
Enthusiasm for his subject was the
inspiration for his statements and
consequently they are not quite in
harmony with the facts. 1t can be
learned by anyone who sincerely in
vestigates that the small taxpayers
are opposed to scheme which with
the city treasury at its present low
ebb,-seeks to benefit certain property
owners who are endeavoring to take
advantage of the present agitation to
perty which has been on the market
for years fer half Of that amount
without buyers, and who are now
volubly proclaiming their loyalty to
the best interests of Mankato while
demanding Shylock prices for that
which they seek to sell. 1T would be
interesting to know by what system
OF matnematlcS secretary olson ar
rived at the conclusion that a club
consisting of ninety nine members
represents five sixths of the taxpay-
ers. He inadvertently forgot to tell
his hearers that all or nearly all of
those belonging to the Kiwanis club
also belong to the Civic and Com
merce association, that they thereby
were represented twice at the coun-
Gil meeting while the small taxpayers
belonging to no organization were
not represented at all. That was
strategy all right. Yet we are told
these organizations are endeavoring
to establish higher standards of.Civic
morality and business ethics. .Ae1ord-
ing to The Free Press one prominent
business man voiced the opinion
that in spite of an Indebtedness Of
some 100000, $4,000 or $4,000 more
or less paid for real estate should
make no difference 1t won't to. those
afflicted with squander mania and
who are In position to meet an in
crease in taxes by advancing the
price Of the various stocks they have
for sale, but the hundreds of small
taxpayers with fixed financial returns
without the possibility to increase
their incomes and those dependent
upon physical toll to make ends
meet have mighty little sympathy for
the specious plea that a sum rang
ing, as high as $4,000 should make
no difference in the purchase of a
new armory site.-Harry F. Lille.

eighth verse from the sixth chapter
"What doth the Lord require of
thee but to do justly and to love
mercy and to walk with thy God?
President Wilson yielding to the
last minute entreaties of his family
and his physicians, took no part in
the inaugural ceremonies other than
to accompany the incoming presi-
dent from the White House to the tn
capitol where he 1gned some bills
and then went with Mrs. Wilson to

trict of the city.
Immediately after administering of
oath Mr.. Harding turned to the vast
crowd which stretched .across the
capitol plaza and began the delivery
of his inaugural address. .r.

to the outskirts of the big assembly.
A chill wind feebly warmed by a
bright sun swept the broad space.

Washington, March 4.--The inau-

o'clock this morning when the con-
gressional committee in charge OF
the affair arrived at the New Willard
hotel to escort the President Elect
and Mrs. Harding and the Vice Presi-
dent Elect and Mrs. Coolidge to the
White House. Everything was in
readiness for the ceremonies OF the
next three hours which conclude with
the actual Inauguration Of the new
president at the capitol. The only
feature which had not been finally
determined was the extent to which
President Wilson would participate.
At the last moment friends and
members Of his family were continu-

desist from doing more than accom-
panying Mr.. Harding to the capitol.
Congress about the same time was
resuming its work, and with less
than three hours to live, was at
tempting to clear its decks for the
inaugural ceremonies which accord
