Reduces
Tax Rate For
County Revenue

The county court has reduced the
rate for county revenue from 25c to-
zoe on the 500 assessed valuation, ac-
cording to announcement made by
county clerk S. P. Cunningham Satur-
day.
The rate was originally set at 25c
by the county court in order to make
certain the receipt Insufficient funds to
carry out present plans, but further
analysis of the total revenue in sight
from the 25c assessment led the court
to believe that a slightly lower tax
would provide the necessary amount.
1t was felt that taxes were already
high enough to suit the average indi-
vidual, so the revenue fund would not
take from the taxpayers pocket a sin
gle cent more than was necessary for
their actual needs.

DISPUTE OVER
LABOR IN War
General Pershing Resents Com
perS' Remarks at Marne
Day Fete.
ALL AMERICANS ARE PATRIOTS
Chief Of Staff Says 1t Is Time to Say
America Shall Be Ruled and Gov
erned by Citizens, and Not
by Private Organizations.

Washington, Sept. S.-Genera1 Per-
lining and Samuel GOmpers had a tilt
at a dinner given as the conclusion of
the exercises here celebrating Lafay-
ette-Marne day. Official Washington
regarded it as a clash over the Ques-
ton of whether labor won the war.
Mr.. GOmpers had spoken on the
after-dinner program and while he
made no claim that labor won the
war, he did tell Of the record of the
American Federation of Labor during
the war and declared that previous to
the entry of the United States its sym
pathy was with the cause of the al
lies.
General Pershing, however, appar-
emily regarded Mr.. GOmpers' remarks
as a claim that labor had won the
war. Some of those who heard his
remarks quote him as having said sub
stantially:
"The policies of this republic are
not determined by labor unions or by
any other organizations but by the
consensus of opinion of it's patriotic
citizens of whatever affiliations.
All Americans Patriotic.

Popular Coroner Gives Good Advice to
School Boards and Parents Which
Should Be Followed
No Schools Should Be Built Street Car Lines
Boulevards Ii Children's Safety Is
Looked After

One of the best public officials in
the United States is Coroner Peter
M. Hoffman of Cook County. The
great majorities by which this good
citizen has been reelected to the i'm
portant position which he holds and
has held for so many years are the
best evidence of his wonderful popu-
larity and of the esteem in which he
is held by the public. Coroner Hoff-
man has the best possible view point
from which to offer advice, and with
the opening of the school year this
week, we commend the following
words of advice coming from him to
the people of this city and to the
school boards of Chicago and it's
suburbs:
when children are let loose from
school the natural eXuberance with
which they grab their hats and rush
to the streets homeward bound should
not be quenched; but the number of
accidents from trolley cars, automo-
biles and vehicles directly in front
of school houses makes it imperative
that all school houses should face
upon the less frequented side streets,
never upon a street car line or upon
streets that are made regular high
ways for vehicles. AS far as possible,
schools facing street car lines should
be moved or abandoned, future school
houses should be built in large squares
or parks with sufficient space between
the front door and the exit from the
grounds to reduce somewhat the speed
and exuberance of youthful sprinters
in their break for home. The fact
that two-thirds of the accidents to
children occur in the middle of blocks
instead of at the crossings where
drivers of vehicles and cars are nat
uralIy alert for dangers, gives a line
on the kind of instruction which teach
ers of public safety should follow.
The rule not to run quickly across
the street, to stop and look both ways,
not to get on or off a car while it is
in motion, to face forward always, to
never run across in front Of car,
to never "hitch" on cars, automobiles
or trucks, or jump off in front OF
other vehicles and to never make i'm
pulsive movements to confuse drivers
of vehicles, are all excellent in.
structions in their way, but it is for
the authorities to so arrange public
affairs and to so conduct private
corporations as to interfere as little
as possible with the spontaneity and
initiative of both children and adults.

now being completed by the finance
committee, Senator Penrose said.
Tax revision must be put into effect
before the change in machinery re-
quired to collect an entirely new tax
could be set up, he explained.
Reflects G. o. P Views.
Senator Penrose was asked if state
ments made by Mr.. Hays should be
regarded as rejecting the views of
Republican leaders.
That's a logical position to as
sume," said Senator PenrOse. "This
bill does not necessarily have to con-
tinue for any great length of time.
1.-The present system was adopted
originally as a war measure and we
are now changing it to relieve the
present situation. We haven't time
in writing it to go into the new theo-
ries of taxation, but we will take
them up sOOn."
The speech of Mr.. Hays and the ap-
prOval of it expressed by the chair
man of the senate finance committee
have given impetus to movement
that has been gaining headway in both
the senate and house to "try OUT the
sales tax plan in the soldiers bonus.

Full cooperation with the federal

evidence against milk distributors and
the Milk Producers Cooperative Mar
keting company in the hands of the

Federal, and possibly state, indict-
