RAISES VALUATION
OF TOWN PROPERTY
New Hampshire Tax Commission In
creaseS Local Appraisals In
CIaremOnt.

CIAREMONT. n. H., Jan. 19.-Nal-
uations of taxable property were given
boost of about % per cent Tuesday
when J. 7. Amey of the state tax com
mission, with the local town commits
sioners. Messrs. \. L. Fitch, W. =.
Prescott and +. .. Prescott, reassessed
the properties.
In all of the first days work there
was not an instance but what the pres
ent valuation was raised. There was
one case in which farm which in the
past few years had been sold twice for
about $4,000. and at the last sale
brought S4.400, together with a sugar
orchard valued at S70O. was revalued
for the full amount of $500.
Mr. Amey was a guest of the Rotary
club dinner and gave the members an
interesting talk on the matter of reval-
uatiOn of C9aremont. He explained that
the purpose of the tax commission is to
see that the valuation of every town and
city is equalized; that the tax on the
properties of individuals is equable.
Where the tax rate of town is high
the commission investigates, and where
it is high while the per caaita cost oil
government is low, they look for trOu
Bile, said Mr. Amey. As an example he
cited the town of Charlestown, which
had the highest tax rate in the state
An investigation showed the fact that
the property of the town was under
valued and a revaluation brought about
a decrease in the tax rate.

The jury in the case of Marjorie
King disagreed. Further action has
yet to be decided.
The liquor charges against John
Ryan and Mike Drnich, as well as
the allegation of rape brought against
two colored soldiers will be heard
on Saturday.
Before hearing several liquor and
other cases, Judge Sawtelle included
in his charge to the federal grand
jury the following remarks on the
Volstead act:
II think the great trouble with
this country today" began his honor.
lis that so many people are not law
abiding citizens. They wink at viola
tions of the law. They either violate
or they make no effort to see that
the guilty are punished. You can
talk to them till you are blue in the
face and it makes no difference. 1t
is impossible to convince them that
if you break the law with impunity
it is very difficult to enforce others.
The national prohibition laws is as
much a part of the constitution as
any other law and yet the very peo-
pie who laugh at it are the first to
demand the enforcement of the guar
antees given them under the constl- :
tuition if they think their property
or other rights are invaded or m
fringed upon in the slightest degree.
They do not seem to realize that 1t
is their duty as citizens to see that
all laws are equally enforced
"A great many people don't realize
how difficult it was to pass the Vol
stead law through congress. espe-
cially with teeth in It, and even now
the courts can only impose fines for
first offenses, but I might mention
that a lot of people have imprison-
ment coming to them. The author
tiles are keeping careful tally on
former offenders and when they come
to court they should come prepared
for a long stay in LeavenWorth."

Federal Court Is Squarely Behind
Labor Of Enforcing Dry Amendment

That tho federal court is squarely

through the office of Mike" Cassidy,
federal prohibition director IS indi-
Gated by reports brought from the
Globe and Miami district where one
first offender against the Volstead
act was assessed a fine of $500 and
where Judge William H. Sawtelle
made a sharp and direct talk on the
subject to members of jury trying
another case of the same nature.
John Mrgudich, proprietor of a
meat market in Globe. was ordered
by Judge Sawtelle in the federal
court last week to pay a fine of $500,
the highest in the power of the court
to impose, for being in possession of
% gallons of red and white wine
Attorney Frank McCann put in a
plea for leniency. but the judge said
he could not act on that plea. The
defendant, the judge proceeded. had
sworn before the jury that his wife
manufactured the wine and that he
did not know it was in the house
until the officers raided the place.
Neither Judge nor jury believed such
a story, his honor stated. The defend
ant tried to shift the blame onto his
wife, he pointed out, and announced
that if the United States attorney
chose TO prosecute her she would
probably be fined a moderate sum.
but with the husband it was diff
ferent matter entirely, and he would
have to be severely punished. He is
a citizen of the United States. and
he should have known he was doing
wrong. the judge stated, and If the
evidence had shown he manufactured
the liquor, he would have been sent
to the penitentiary. This lacking, he
was fined the maximum amount of
5000
His honor spoke Of the wrong of
violating the constitution of the
United States People. he said, must
