Despite the protestations Of or

railroad shopmen from striking.
thus interfering with interstate

expressed at the Department Of

The cabinet met today to consider
the Baldwin statement, but post.

BUSINESS NJ T n
IN ALEXANDRIA
FIGHT TAX
Protest Framed at Meeting
Declares Levy Is Blow at
city's Trade Progress.

ALEXANDRIA, Va, July 49,
Geventy-five prominent merchants
met last night in the Young Peo-
pies Building and registered a pro-
test against the raise in taxes on
trucks.
William II. Hellmuth was chair
man Of the meeting. Harry D.
Kirk made an address.
Kirk asked the chairman to have
the protest to be sent. to the city
manager so worded that it would
stop further taxation Of merchants.
He stated that under this new tax
ordinance 1t costs the merchant in
Alexandria twelve times as much
to run truck as it costs his Wash
lngton rival. He stated that if the
city council continued to tax mer.
chants as 1t is now doing business
will suffer.
The main objection to the new
tax, he stated was the $1,000 on
trucks up to a two-ton capacity.
This would include the truck chat
could not possibly cause more dam
age to the city streets than an au.
tomobile filled with passengers.
Thomas Chauncey declared that
II the city council did not pay at
SCAlSAOA W WIS PAO(CSI
would wait and use the ballot to
get what they wanted.
Wilbur Baggot said that the tax
was exorbitant and unreasonable,
and that If this protest was not
given consideration by the city
council he was in favor Of collect
ing a fund and taking the protest
20 the courts.
City Manager Wilder M. Rich
was called on to explain how the
council had reached the conclusion
that trucks in Alexandra should be
taxed $1,000 over the $500 of last
year.
Rich explained that in drafting
the ordnance, he started with a
fiv0ton truck and reached the con-
clusion that $3.50 would be a rea-
sonable tax for it. Then for every
ton less he took off five dollars.
He said that he noticed that almost
all the one-ton trucks carried over
one ton. and very often two. He
therefore made the tax I'D to two
tons, $1,000.
A petition was drawn up for pres
entation to the city council asking
for relief.

Athletic classes for business men

Since the completion Of the new
high school building and the public
use Of the gym, where old men may
renew their youth, fat men may re-
duce, lean men may gain flesh, and
kinks may be removed with consid-
cradle pain, there was formed a class
Of business men for these physical
fortunes, which meets once or twice
a week, or such a matter.
The class has grown in popularity
OF them now attending regularly,
until there are perhaps at least eight
sometimes. During the first few
meetings of the Business Mems class,
they were quite gentlemanly and not
so very rough. OF course, someone
several weeks ago hit Tommy Ny
len on the head and sprained his
ankle; and a few nights later some
one tripped Wallace Pearson and he
had a very stiff neck which he wore
for several days.
However as they have grown more
proficient in their reducing-gaining
exercises they have also grown in
clined to "ruff-stuf," until the meet
