DISTRICT FLAT TAX URGED
BY ANACOSTIA CITIZENS
Wants Senate Conferees to Abolish
Fixed Ratio System in Appro-
priation Bill.

At the conclusion of discussion of
the new proposed tax plan for the
District. the board of directors of the
Anacostia Citizens Association and
Board of Trade, at a meeting last
night. instructed Secretary Frank
Earnshaw to write to the Senate
conferees on the District appropria-
ton bill. urging them to insist on the
original Senate tax amendment,
which would abolish the fixed ratio
system, levy fiat tax Of $1.75 per
500 assessed value on real estate and
exempt the first $4,000 of property
from taxation.
The board adopted resolutions ask
ing the Public Utilities Commission to
give the street car companies control
of all motor bus lines in the District.
as a guarantee of public service. The
directors maintained that the COM
panies backed by small capital can
not assure the public continued and
efficient service.
Interest also was manifested in the
proposed Anacostia Park and the
Anacostia Park council, composed of
representatives of citizens associa-
tions in the southeast section. and
other interested persons, was organ
ized to lend every effort towards
making the plans, as originated by
Col. c. o. Sheriff., superintendent of
public buildings and grounds, a
reality.

FAv0Rs PROHIBITING
TAX-FREE SECURITIES
House Committee Reports Resolu.
ton for Amending Con-
stitution.

The Green resolution proposing an
amendment to the Constitution which
would prohibit issuance of tax-sxempt
securities by the federal government
and by or under authority of the states
was formally reported by the House
ways and means committee yesterday.
Estimates obtained by the committee.
the report said, showed that the tax
free securities now amount to between
$4,000, 900, 900 and $4,000. 100000. and
that the right to issue was "a constant
temptation to issue in larger amounts
than is necessary
Representative Green. republican,
Iowa, who wrote the report, declared
the mass Of the tax-exempt securities
will continue to increase until every
inducement will be offered to the man
having a large income to make his in
vestments solely in them, and even the
comparatively small taxpayer fTill find
it to his profit to invest In them. Mean
while, the revenues of the government
from large incomes must continue to
shrink and income tax will be collected
largely from those whose incomes are
comparatively small"
The report said the present system
enables much property to escape taxa
ton; that 1t unfairly discriminates be-
tween taxpayers. impedes private
financing, discourages investment In
new enterprises and creates social un-
rest.

HEALTH TALKS
TO WOMEN
By MRS. GENE CASE
Many Women Foolishly Suffer;
Ignorant of Simple Little
Remedies.
TELLS HOW TO STOP
SUCH TROUBLES EASY

The reluctance of press and
public to talk about the so-called
Female" troubles and the tim
idity of many girls about talking
about II to their physician has
kept many a poor suffering woman
in darkness 'and she has blindly
suffered days each month with
Menstrual pains and cramps when
she should know that such pains
and cramps are unnecessary and
unnatural and should be stopped
at once.
Such periodical misery each
month makes a girl grow prema-
turely old and haggard looking.
Every mother owes 1t to her
daughter to inform her about this
but sad to relate some mothers
are just as ignorant on the sub
ject. Some have tried old fash
ioned remedies-hot applications.
ginger teas and patent medicines
and concluded nothing would help
them. but l hope every sufferer
in this city reads what I have to
say.
Il know a simple harmless lit
tie home remedy you can carry in
your pocket or purse and take
anytime. anywhere without the
knowledge or aid of anyone and
away go those pains and cramps
in just a few minutes as proven in
hundreds of girls cases who tried
1t on my suggestion. Here ii is.
Just get bottle of Adams Won
der Capsules at the nearest Peo-
pies Drug store. They are harm
less as sugar. Then the next time
pains and flow starts take three
doses per directions on the bottle
and away goes every sign of
pain and misery or the store will
give you back your money. The
guarantee is right on the bottle.
FOR NERVOUS WOMEN
1t is a pity the way some girls
and women overdo and finally
become weak. nervous wrecks
They are thin and pale and lack
the girlish Pep" and sleep rest
less and dream all night and then
they of course wake up feeling
all tired and wornout. Nervous
ness brings on periodical pains
and countless other symptoms
too. Broadway isn't the only
place where those of my sex over
do and here is a little real tip.

COTTON SUCCUMBS
TO BEAR ATTACK
Unfavorable Weather Reports
Aid in Loss of so to 80
Points.

NEW YORK, June 12.-Selling Of
tor broke the list about &c a pound.
His orders are variously estimated
at between 10000 and $4,000 bales.
Despite the fact that bears found
the market vulnerable to their at
tacks and even with the weather map
all that could be expected. the mar
ket rallied from the bottom on a
good trade and speculative demand.
The technical condition OF the market
undoubtedly weakened and together
with the break in Liverpool due to
the failure OF international bankers
to arrange a loan to Germany, bears
did not like the action Of the market
1t took thousands OF bales of selling
orders to carry prices &c dover.
Later, the National Ginners' Asso-
citation was reported to have placed
the condition of the growing crop
as of June Z. at 67.5 per cent against
their estimate last month of 72.1 per
cent A loss in condition when 1t had
been expected that June would bring
an improvement in conditions was a
significant factor. sentimentally at
least On the break, OF course, there
were wires speaking of improved
weather conditions but the vast ma
jority think that 1t will take several
weeks of good weather to improve the
crop.
Rainfall in those States producing
the greatest amount Of cotton has
been too heavy. Oficial government
records just published show normal
May rainfall in Texas at 3.32 inches.
while during May just passed there
were AS inches, or 1.16 inches above
normal.
Large blocks of July were thrown
on the market early. and later a lead
ing operator sold the entire list. A
lower grain market helped the re-
cession along. The Department of
Agriculture issued a statement that the
flooded Arrears of Texas and Louisiana
were replanted under favorable
weather condition.
Warm pleasant weather is long
overdue in all parts of the belt. A
glentleman from Birmingham, Ala.
said he did not see cotton over six
inches while on his trip north but
usually at this time cotton plants
would be nearly a foot high.
The break or reaction in stocks.
grains. coffee and sugar. and all other
outside markets, sent cotton prices so
to so points net lower around 2:30 in
the afternoon, or to the low levels
Of the day. The break was regarded
as a healthy condition.

NEW YORK. June 12.-Trading
in the bond market continued dull
and prices seemed more inclined to
follow softness in stocks than to
respond to ease in money. Call
loans got down to the lowest point
in years and easier conditions also
prevailed in the market for time
funds. Buyers and sellers gave most
of their attention to the govern
ment bond list and In this group
there was fair activity. with prices
holding steady. The Liberty list
was practically unchanged. while
Victory ~ per cent notes were
traded in good volume at from 2
cents above to cents below Satur-
days closing quotations. Foreign
government bonds on the other
hand were irregular. Firm spots
were the Mexican issues, Czecho-
Slovak IS and Canadian bonds.
United Kingdom IS, 1922 and 1929,
were fractionally lower and French
IS were likewise softer.
The railroad group showed con-
siderably irregularities, gilt-edged
issues maintaining their ground
well, on the whole, while more spec
ulative classes worked fractionally
lower. The Seaboard issues were
conspicuous examples of the latter
class. Katy adjustments 5s and
Chicago and Alton refunding IS
also were sold. st. Paul bonds were
firm. fractions were dull and ir-
regular.
