SMALL NAMES
WAR BOARD To
FIGHT ARREST
Indicted Governor Expected 10
Call Out Militia in Siege
of Capitol Hill"
By WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON,
International News Service

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Aug. O.
Governor Len Small of Illinois today
launched a sensational offensive in
the "Siege of Capitol Hill" by Great
ing a "war board" of five members
to act as his military advisers.
The order, unprecedented In the
history of the Illinois National Guard,
was construed as a preliminary to
the use OF State troops to prevent
the governors arrest by Sangamon
county officials. In creating his
war board" the governor entirely
ignored Adjutant General Dickson,
active head of the State troops, and
invoked his constitutional powers as
commander-in-chief of the National
Guard.
The war board" comprises Brig.
Gen. o. p. Younger, Col. d. S. Myers,
jr., Lieut.. Col. A. r. Inglesh, Capt.
Carlos f. Black. and Capt. Percy r.
Coffin. Inglesh, Black and Coffin
were elevated TO colonels In the ex.
ecutive order. Younger was rein
stated from the retired list.
The governor issued a public state.
ment explaining that the board was
directed to investigate the condition
of homeless world war veterans
Illinois. He ordered the
use of state armories to care for the
veterans.

LEViES
ON REALTY
INCREASED
$50, 900, 900 Added to valua-
tons viii Greatly Offset 13
Cont Cut Per Hundred.

Although the tax rate has been
reduced from $1.95 hundred to
$l.82, Washington real estate own
ers will face an increase in their
taxes. William p. Richards, asses
sor for the district, made this an
nouncement today in stating that
the work of compiling and Iipdexing
the new assessment had been
started.
$40 ,O00, 900 Increase.
The assessment on real estate in
the District of Columbia has been
increased 10000. 900 by the Board
of Assessors in its biennial assess
ment OF property. This means an
increase of 10 per cent on most Of
the property in Washington, Mr..
Richards says, while the lowering Of
the tax rate will only save the prop.
erty owners about Z per cent of their
last years bills.
The new assessment will go on the
tax books as of July /, this year,
and the collector of taxes will begin
the collection of the levy next No
vember.
Last year District of Columbia real
estate was valued at about s424 600 :
900. This figure was also used for
the previous year.
The work of arriving at a reason
able valuation for property in the
District has been "a hard task for
the board during the past two years
owing to the housing conditions.
These conditions. II is said by The
assessor raised some property out Of
all proportion. while in other cases.
property sold for less than the val
uation put on II by the board.
The assessor cited one instance Of
where a row of houses built about
ten years ago In the Mt. Pleasant
section Of the city, sold at varying
prices. The houses were constructed
by the same builder and 1t Is pre-
sumed that he used the same material
in all of them as he built the row at
the same time. Each house had the
same number of rooms and improve
ments and were in about the same
condition. One house sold for less
than the assessed valuation while
others sold for varying amounts up
to $4,000 more than the assessed
value.
The assessor, for the first time In
four years, this year will issue what
Is known I'm real estate circles as the
numerical books" These books list
every piece of property in the District
and give the assessed value. the own
err and the taxes. The book is used
extensively by real estate brokers and
bankers in the city for arriving at
the value of property.
Some owners of suburban property
have complained that their taxes were
higher this year than they have been
In previous years, but the assessor
says that this was due to the increase
in rates which were in effect this
year The new assessment will not
help them very much because In many
cases their property has increased in
value
