 In Manchester Selectman Willard B..

 Asked for an expression of opinion on the Irish situation, Sir James replied:
 ''The less said now the better" He added, however, that he was hopeful.
 At the close of yesterdays conver- sation, which lasted almost three hours, MT. Lloyd George and Mr. De Valera gave evidence that some progress had been made and that today's discussion would be resumed under favorable circumstances. When MT. De Valera left his hotel on his way to Downing street, where he was to meet the premier, a mem Der of his party told the Associated Press it was "extremely unlikely that he would come in contact with Sir James Craig, the Ulster premier, who was summoned to London in connection with the conference. A small crowd cheered MT De Valera as he departed from his hotel. Officials in Conference i Art O'Brien, president of the Gaelic League in London, and Robert C. Barton, member of the Irish dele l gat1on. accompanied MT. De Valera but remained in another room when l today's conference began. Prior to MT. De Valera's arrival at No. 10 Downing street, Sir Hamar Green wood, chief secretary for Ireland, and Lord Curzon, secretary of state for foreign affairs, conferred with the premier MT. De Valera arrived at the l premler's official residence at 11:30 1 o'clock and the two men resumed their interview in the cabinet room. The convention was as yesterday be- tween the two men, alone

RECORD RETURNS
 FROM COLLECTIONS
Local Manufacturers Pay Two FifthS Of Total Taxes

Tax Collector Bernadotte LoomlS
 announced last night that so far this
 month he had received $204,000 col
 lection from taxes. He expects to
 have received before he first of next
 month at least $1,500,000. In July last year collections amounted to $1,- |157,357.O4. and for the whole year If MT. Loomis' ex- pecta tions come true the collections for the present month will be the largest in the history of he city, be- ing larger for one single month this year than they were for the whole 12 months last year. The Eastern Malleable company made the largest individual payment yesterday by a check amounting to s14,10420. A fact not realized by the majority of taxpayers is that the total taxes to be paid by the local manufacturing concerns is tWo-fifths of the total taxes paid in, clearly showing that the manufacturers, be- cause of the increased property valu- ation, are paying the bulk of the bur- den.
 The American Hardware corpora tion will make a payment this. month of $267, 281.30, which exceeds its last year payment by sS6,0O0. The total I amount of taxes to be paid this year ! by the large manufacturing concerns are: American Hardware Corpora ton, s2c7,2S1.30, Stanley Works, ts103,77655; Stanley Rule & Level, 1s6S,1 ,1O7.60; Landers, Frary and Clark, s142,1 ,13se0; New Britain Machine ! company, s43,1S6.14; North & Judd, [ s48,281.20, Traut & Hine, $17, ,161.1O; | Union Manufacturing company, $23,- | 0O1 O0; American Hosiery company, $21, 1,221.20; Hart & Hutchinson, $1O, o5O.42; Hart & Cooley, $4,222.7o; l Fafnir Bearing company, $26,538.70;

a crook comedy drama that is high
ly diyerting ana offers one hundred
per cent entertainment.
A couple of crooks find 1t too hot
for them In New York so they make
their way to certain hamlet to
rest and ply their trade more safely.
They stumble onto deserted wing
of house which was once a very
wealthy homestead but which is now
very heavily mortgaged. Which is
the point where the fun begins. On
the other side dwells kindly old
dame and her charl~ing niece. The
humor maintains itself in the desire
of the women to call on departed
spirit whom they think has left some
money hidden somewhere with the
aid of oliia board while the crooks
are listening on the other side. The
ouija board Is utilized and the con-
versatonal by-riay between the gull
ible women and the unobserved
crooks is riot of laughter.
The climax shows the mortgage
about to shape itself, with the wom-
en- trusting to the ouija board for the
aid of the departed spirit. The lis
teners conceive the plan to plant
enough st9xen wealth >to make the
kindly souls free. They lay their
schemes very skillfully and the mon
ey is found in due style, and to make
the situation still better, the holder
of the mortgage is mistaken as being
a crook, while a pretty romance de-
velopes between the niece and one
of the crooks Matt Moore plays
the leading male role, with George
Parsons as his pal and Gladys Les
lie as the girl.

MAE MARSH COMING
IN NEW PHOTOPLAY,

Robertson-Cole's new production,
"Nobody's Kid" starring Mae Marsh,
will be seen for the first time at the
Sugg theatre en- Wednesday. This
Is the second picture Miss Marsh
has made since returning to the
screen after an absence of two years.
Her first, "Tha Little 'Fraid Lady"
is scoring heavily throughout the
country.
"Nobody's KID" gives Miss Marsh
an excellent opportunity to display
many whimsicalities. The story is
that of little orphan girl, who
while in an asylum, brings down
the wrath of the teachers and trus-
tees upon herself because of her
childish pranks. 1t is rather rough
shedding for the little girl until sew
eral %mpathetc and real human be-
ings arrive at the orphanage. The
story, winds up with a fitting and
happy climax.

workers received from $500 to

the rifle received $1,000 per day,
while the man shouldering the rifle
received $1.00 per day. The mini

paid to those who kept the military
record at Washington for the LOO
day soldier. Common labor was
getting $500 to $500 per day. In
! the shipyards some workers were
getting as high as $4,000 per day.
In addition to their salaries, the
government civilian employees re-
ceived and are still receiving a
bonus of $4,000 per month In fact,
that bonus was paid to government
civilian employees in France holding
soft jobs hundreds of miles behind
the lines. The number of million
aires increased in Ohio during the
war by about 1900. The saving bank
deposits OF the people of Ohio who
stayed at home were increased on
the average of 100000 per deposit.

combined stock by about $500,000,-

ed IS per cent of the army, drew

left the Private approximately $8
per month from which in thousands
of cases an average of $500 more
was deducted for liberty bonds,
which he was afterward compelled to
sell at an enormous discount be-
cause of lack of funds. Hence
thousands drew approximately SO
per month and the bulk of the re-
mainder drew SIS per month. The
comparison of the pay of the service
men with the pay of those at home
would be ridiculous if it were not
so unjust. The ex-service men dc
not complain of the wage paid to
those at home. 1t was done and it
must have been fair. However, the
ex-service men surely should be
treated with equal fairness.
Did the draft discriminate un-
fairly? 1,3S9,474 men in Ohio were
within the draft age. 143,243 of
them, up to the time the war
ended, had been drafted into the
service because of exceptional value
in time of war. Another 100000
had enlisted. Over 100000 were
permitted to remain at home and
enjoy the comforts and pleasures of
home, and to receive higher wages
than ever were paid in Ohio. The
49, 900 draftees and the 100, 900
volunteers were compelled to leave
| home, loved ones, their occupations
and positions, the opportunity to
earn higher wages, and enter the
military service.

all equal opportunities and equality
