TAX BOARD MEMBERS
TO MEET ASSESSORS
OF COUNTY FEB. "a

A representative or member OF the
state tax board of tax commissioners
will be here Monday, Feb. II to ex-
plain to the assessors of the county
changes in the tax laws for this year
and the methods to be followed by
the assessors and their deputies. The
officials will meet at the court house
at 10 o'clock.
Announcement Of the meeting was
made by David L. Reid, township as
SCISSOR, and acting county assessor.
Only a few radical changes have
been made in the method of assessing
from last year, it is stated. One of
these is that furniture in a room will
not be itemiZed this year. but the
whole value of the room Judged and
assessed. 1t it believed that this will
be a time saver. Many things that
are now classed as household furniture
will probably be put in a seperate
class now, the local assessor stated.
Personal Property Stressed.
Special efforts will be made to set
the true value of personal property
this year. the assessor stated. The
horizontal increase that has BEEN made
in the past would then be eliminated.

Supplementary reports from bust
ness firms will have to be in by April
l. according TO the latest information.
These have always been delayed in the
past.
Farm lighting systems will be listed
as personal property and not as a
part of the building in which they are
housed, 1t is stated. Musical instru-
nents will be listed seperate from
furniture in room

plored an improvised cave where yes
terday they found the body of Theo-
dore Greesley, once prosperous busi-

FIGHT ON HOME RULE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP
IN SENATE DISCUSSION

Fight on the home rule bill for cities
of Indiana is expected to develop in
the senate, aecordiRgA to BENJAMIN
Johnson, head Of the committee from
Richmond which attended the house
committee hearing in Indianapolis
last Thursday evening. Reports from
the state capital indicate that the pro-
posed measure will pass the house but
probably will strike a snag in the
higher body. it is said.
Governor McCray stated that he was
in favor of the home rule bill now be-
fore the house, when the committee
from Richmond visited him Thursday.
He added that he was not in favor of
the commission or city manager forms
of municipal government, but as the
proposed measure made these optional
with cities he would favor it, MI. John
son stated.
McConaha Predicts Passage.
Senator McConaha stated that as
far as he knew no active opposition
to the measure had developed in the
open, in the senate thus far. He pre-
dicted the passage of the bill. He
stated that it was altogether probable
that there would be fight staged on
the floor of the senate when the meas
ure came up for vote.
Preliminary efforts of cities Of the
state for the passage OF the home rule
bill are said to have reached their
climax with the hearing before the
house committee last Thursday. At
this time virtually all those present
recognized that the advocates of the
bill had much the better Of the argu-
ment, according to members Of the
local committee.
Expect Pressure
The showing made at this time prob
ably will make the opponents of the
measure bring their forces to bear on
the senatorial fight. it is said.
Representative Knapp. of Wayne
county is leading the fight in the
house for the passage of the bill, and
Senator McConaha is expected to take
an active interest in the bill when it
comes before the senate

(By Associated PreSS)

ATHENS, Feb. 5.--Conferences with
King Constantine in an effort to solve
the ministerial crisis which developed
during the present week and culmin-
ated last night in the resignation of
the Rhallis cabinet. 1t was believed
that NJ. Gournaris, minister of War. or
M. KalogeropoulOS, minister of Fin
ance, would be asked to head the new
ministry.
Premier Rhalls had insisted that he
should head the Greek delegation
which will attend the Near East con-
ference to be held in London beginning
Feb. 81. M. Gounaris on the other
hand, claimed the honor of being the
Greek spokesman, citing his influence
in parliament and the adherence Of
the Greek press IS his qualifications.
This friction between the premier and
his minister OF war became so marked
that it became known early yesterday
that NJ. Rhallis had decided to hand
his resignation to the king
When NJ Rhallis informed King Con-
stantine that the cabinet had quit
office the king asked for time in which
to consider the situation. and the pre-
mier proceeded to the parliament
building to announce the resignation
of the government.
NJ Rhallis stated he would explain
the reason which prompted him to re-
sign when new government had been
constituted. He told the Associated
Press that he had made a recommend
alton to the king that NJ Gounaris be
selected as his successor

TO HELP BUSINESS

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 5.-Issuance
of the decree permitting banks sup
pressed during the Carranza admin
istrtion to resume business, made pub
lie on Thursday night by President
Obregon, is considered in financial
circles of the city to be the first step
made by the president to stabilize
banking conditions in the republic.
4 comprehensive banking project,
which will be submitted to the spe-
cial session Of congress next week,
has been prepared by the government.
One of the bills would call for the

cidental, the Mercantile de Vera Cruz.

state banks of Nuevo Leon, Tabanco,

and Mexico open their doors.

Why Ric h m ond is the
Best Place in Which

will interview persons ut random
TO find out why they like to live
here.

Each day a Palladium reporter
will interview persons at random
10 find out why they like to live
here.
Richmond is city Of homes"
said one prominent club wo-
man who formerly lived here:
You don't find a great de-
mand for apartments but you do
find a demand for homes. Every
one wants to own their home In
nearly every city now great
apartment houses are rising in
every part of town and there is
a steady influx to them.
Nor do you find the working
classes forced to live in rows
of run down tenements as is the
case in most Of the cities l have
visited. They too have their
homes.
1T is a striking and note
worthy fact to find city offer
ing so many opportunities that
are not confined to any one
group but are shared by all.
Il wasn't born here but lived
here long enough so l feel justi-
fed in calling it my home

Asked if she ever intended to
return hero for residence she
smilingly replied. Intend is
hardly the word. Were coming
back just as soon as we can and
that probably won't be more
than two or three years"

May RENEW
ATTACK ON
PRIMARIES
New Move May Be Started in
State Senate Next Week for
Repeal of Direct Voting
Laws.
SWAIN FATHER OF BILL
(By Associated Pressl

INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. GA new
move may be started in the state SEN
ate next week for the repeal of the
statewide primary SO as to carry out
generally the recommendations of
Governor McCray Although no an
nouncement has been made by the
Republican state committee, it is ex-
pected to approve of the bill with some
OF the committeeman seeking to win
Its approval in the senate. Governor
McCray. however. is not known TO
have taken on new interest In the pro-
posal, seemingly leaving decision up
to the committee.
Senator Swain will introduce the
bill which will provide for nomination
of all candidates for county congress
sional and legislative candidates by
direct primary. A convention system
would be established for nominating
candidates for United States senators
and state governors and the president
ial preference primary would be dis
carded.
Fight Up In House.
Provisions designed to regulate con-
duct of state conventions will prob
ably be included in the BILL possibly
including the requirements of the use
of voting machines by delegates in
casting their votes
The primary fight also is scheduled
to come up in the house, its committee
planning early disposition of the Willis
bill which would wipe out entirely the
primary system and restore the old
convention system. Passage of this
bill in its present form is regarded as
hopeless by house leaders. but its con-
sideration is expected to bring out the
house membership attitude towards
the primary.

ficers of the Italian steamer Ancona,
which arrived here today from Novor-

costly charter and the detention of the
vessel at Batum, by the Georgian gov

added that the Ancona was obliged to
remain at Novorossisk for a month
