BETTER EQUALIZATION
OF VALUES SOUGHT

CONNERSVILLE, Ind, June IA
better equalization of farm land values
for taxation purposes is sought by the
Fayette county farm bureau. Some
assessors have too enthusiastically
agreed with the farm bureaus recon-
mendation that valuations should be
lowered to reach true value" basis,
and have cut valuations below the real
value, while in other cases the valua-
lions are still above the real worth of
the land. The valuations vary from a
reduction of three per cent to as high
as 80 per cent lower than last years
figures.
An effort to have farm lands in all
townships valued on a similar ana
equal basis, will be made by the
bureau.
Within the townships, the valuations
are we'll equalized, it is stated, the
good and poor lands bearing their
proper share of taxes. 1t is felt that it
will be simple matter to equalize the
various townships by increasing those
where valuations are low, and cutting
where they are too high.
The board of review already has
stated an intention of making changes
in the township figures and has re-
quested suggestions from the farmers
organization.

Ripping RHYMES
THE CHERRY GUESTS
BY Walt Mason

have uncles, have cousins, have
nieces by the score, and in couples
and in dozens they come gadding to
my door; just to visit for a season,
just to make themselves at home:
and you here behold the reason for
the burrows on my dome. Yet with
gaudy smiles l greet them, as they
come in ranks and rows, when I'd
really like TO beat them with a length
of garden hose. For they bore me
with their chatter, and they talk, in
voices strong, of the things that do
not matter, Of the things that don't
belong. If there is a theme or topic
that's a WEAKNESS to me, they'll dis
cuss it, loud and yawpic, till l wiring
my hands and flee. But l lack the
nerve to can them when they journey
to my gate; with a cordial smile
scan them, crying welcome" to each
skate. Oh, l like to have my nieces
come and drink a dish of tea, but
they shouldn't bring valises and big
wardrobe trunks to me. l can stand
a decent number, and my welcome
will not fail, if they eat and drink
and slumber and depart before they're
stale.

Russia S New Ruler

Communism is dead in Russia, and in its
place is found greed and avarice.
So writes a correspondent who has just re-
turned to London after study of conditions in
that country. The greed that holds the hearts
of the communist leaders is responsible for con-
ditions much worse than those ever imposed by
a car. They know writes this investigator,
that communism is opposed by the majority of
the people, and in the last days of the soviet
regime the leaders are pundering the public
treasury and are holding power as a strongly
entrenched governing body.
This is not surprise to many, and may ex-
plain many recent events in that land of starva-
titn and deprivation. Back of the cruelty of
m3st tyrants of history has been the motive of
gaining wealth by stealing it from the people

poke at the public expense, they are merely

All the high officials of Russia, says the cor
respondent, are obtaining concessions to exploit
various enterprises. The head of one department
boasts of a valuable fishing concession One de-
partment holds exclusive sway over certain
products which it buys at small COST and retails
to other departments of the government and to
the people at tremendous profit.
Wherever this correspondent went he found

Of a highly, developed bureaucracy, which is rob-

In the face of reports coming out Of Russia
our country is maintaining correct diplomatic
attitude in refusing to recognize the soviet. The
state department has acted wisely in sticking
closely to its original principle of action regard
ing the recognition Of Russia.
If the American government had taken the
slightest cognizance of the present government
of Russia it might have found itself in an en-
barrassing position sooner or later. Our very
aloofness is the element of strength in reference
to any action that may be taken when that coun
