URGES
STRONG ARMY, NAVY

New York. Maintenance of a
strong army and navy is the only
means of assuring the safety of the
United States under present troubled
world conditions, was urged in resolu-
lions adopted at the closing session of
the National Civic federation confer
ence of international affairs.
The resolution dealing with the
army commended the present national
defense act, but urged that the stand
ing army be increased to 10000 enlist
ed men and $4,000 officers as advo-
Gated by Secretary Of War Weeks.
The navy, said another resolution,
should be maintained in every way
on a basis of equality with that of
Great Britain and five-thirds the
strength of that of Japan.
The conference also advocated adop-
ton of consistent American policy in
international relations, divorced from
partisan politics and bringing to bear
upon the other nations the influence
of agreement for justice and peace.

BRING TAX NOTICE WITH PAYMENT, IS
 PLEA OF HAWKINS
Cooperation of Taxpayers in Speeding Up Collections Is Requested by the
 Tax Collector

Save your notices and bring or send in with your payment" Is the plea of James F. Hawkins. tax col lector and his assistants. who have mailed out more than 45,000 post cards. notices of taxes due October I.
 On account of the tax collectors s office of Jefferson county having to keep more than 45.ooo separate ac- counts covering amounts aggregating more than seven and half million dollars, 1t Is necessary for this of- flee force to keep a thoroughly systematic record, and they ask the ,co-operation of tho individual citi- zens.
 The clerical forces of this of flee have been busy for the past three months making out re- ceipts and post card notices to the tax payers for the coming year. Each one of these receipts and mo- tices carries a reference number which is the key to the whole sys- tenn, and 1t Is necessary for the tax collectors office to have this num- Der In order to be sure that the tax payer Is paying, tax on the right property. There are 80 many dup lication of names that 1t is very un- safe to pay by name without verify ing the description of the property. By keeping the post card notice and presenting 1t at the time of pay ment, the payer Is guaranteed against errors and service Is also expedited.
 Past records show that approxi- mately 75 per cent of the taxes are paid. during the month of December, and most of that between December 25 and January 1, and 1t Is a tre- mendous job to handle the crowds during the last days of December.
 Mir. Hawkins announced that a matter of importance was that of making changes or corrections in taxes. He pointed out that during tho month of October his force will have plenty of time and will be glad to go into any detail with the tan payer. After that, he stated they will not have the time for this kind of work, and he urges that all tax payers wishing to make corrections come to the office during the month of October, whether they are ready to pay their taxes or not. and get such corrections made as tney see fit. This office cannot give any relief In tax raises. but 1t can correct any errors that may exist.
 The office force is desrous of handling the crowds with as little confusion and with as much speed as possible. and if the tax payers will co-operate by saving the tax notices they will be assured of better service than they have ever had be- fore, 1t Is declared,
 A 'cheok writer" has been installed in this office in order to keep from congesting the cashiers window, and MT. Hawkins figures that he can serve five to tho minute or 300 to the hour.
