- TO MEET DEMANDS

(By Associated Press Leased Wirel

The letter calls attention TO the
present adequate distribution of sup
plies and to the steady reduction in
prices throughout the country during
the last few weeks.
'The domestic user is clearly as
sured of domestic supplies, although
individual preference as to kind and
description may not always be met
and may require some substitution Of
other COAL" Mr.. Barnes states.
'The very menacing coal situation
arising out of the five months suspen-
sion OF production has been met and

HIT KENOSHA HARD
Men Convicted of Violations of

Vast Sums in Taxes.

Report1 from Washington today. de-
clare that plans are now being worked
out for the collection, or the attempted
collection, of $6,35O,OOO declared to be
due to the United States government
in revenue taxes and penalties through
the operations of bootleggers and 9TH
er dealers in liquor in the eastern dis
trict of Wisconsin. A H. Wilkinson,
collector of internal revenue for this
district, is in Washington now to con-
fer with Commissioner w. H. Blair as
to some final decision in regard to the
collection of this vast sum of money.
The Supreme court of the United
States has held that warrants in dis
traint may be issued to provide for
the sale of any property of the delin-
quent tax payers and it is expected
that this course will be followed in
settling up the claims of the govern
ment. It is declared that the vast
sum mentioned is due from persons
in Wisconsin who have been convicted

of New Tabernacle
Excavation Started for the New Tab
ernacle Which is to be Built
at Zion City.

Zion, Ill. = Work has begun in this
city on the erection of mammoth tab
ernacle as a new church home for
the Christian Catholic Apostolic
Church in Zion. Workmen began ex-
cayating on Wednesday and a hole
154x254 is being dug for the founda-
ton and for basement, and by next
Rsummer it is expected that the build
ing will be completed The site for
the tabernacle is ON hill and being
in the exact center of the city is ad-
mirably adapted for structure Of this
kind. The present tabernacle is a
wooden one and was intended by DR..
Dowie as a temporary structure, so
that Overseer Volivia is carrying out
a plan which DR.. Dowie had intended
when he founded the city. The new
tabernacle will be of tile and brick.
and will have two towers at the front
that will be 100 feet high and will
contain chimes so that the worshippers
will be called by means of these music
al chimes, and being in the center of
the city will be heard in every part
of it. The main auditorium will seat
from five to six thousand people and
there will be a spacious basement
which will be used for Bible class
rooms and for robing rooms for the
choir and officers The choir gallery
in the auditorium will seat between
seven and eight hundred singers.
This new tabernacle will be an at
tractive feature, not only of Lake coun-
ty but of the entire state. It will be
plainly visible from Sheridan Road
and from the lake, An up-to-date radio
equipment will broadcast Overseer
Voliva's sermons, as we'll as the music
from the famous white robed choir
and mammoth pipe organ, so that ocean
going vessels even, will be able to pick
up the Shiloh Tabernacle, City OF

Kenosha to Have Big Share.

While no figures have been given out
as to the assessments made by the gov
eminent agents to offer to make COM
of the revenue and penalties has been
assessed against men and women in
Kenosha. Kenosha furnished a big
delegation of the men who have been
convicted for the violation 0of the IL
quor laws and in some cases the
amount of sales alleged against the
Kenosha men ran into vast sums of
money. Warrants in distraint were
never sent to the local. revenue col
lectors in Kenosha. Only one of these
warrants is known to have come here
and that called for the collection of a
sum in the neighborhood of a thou
sand dollars. No steps were ever TAX
en- to levy on the property of the man
in question and it is known that he
has died since the warrant was is
sued. It is expected that in this case
the government will seek to collect
from the estate of the man.
May Offer Compromises.
Nothing has been said as to just
how these big claims will be settled
but it has been the custom Of the gov
rnment agents to offer to make COM
promises with delinquents. The as
sessments which have been made are
double the tax which would have been
assessed under normal conditions and
in addition to the double tax the pen
atty for delinquency amounting to five
per cent of the total has been added.
In cases where there was repeated
evasion of the tax fines have been
added to the other penalties. Should
compromises be made it was said that
the government would expect to col
lect at least-$3, 100000 of the amount
Of the delinquent tax.
Some Of the Kenosha men who have
been convicted in connection with the
violation of the revenue laws are
wealthy men and nearly all of them
have property which could be levied
on by the government. Property will
be seized under tax claims if money
can not be paid, according to the re-
port coming from Washington.
Some Have Pleaded Poverty"
Some of the men against whom it
is known that the tax has been levied
are now serving terms in either state
or federal prisons and these men have
pleaded poverty" in~connection with
the payment of fines in federal and
local courts. Some of these men were
believed to have made large sums of
money out of their deals in liquor and
it is possible that the government Of
ficials will be able to find the hiding
place of the profits. 1t isl announced
that the government will be decidedly
diligent in the prosecution of all of
the cases growing out of evasion of
taxes.
