CHILDREN OF SALVATION
ARMY FORCE MAY CARRY
DISEASE GERMS UNKNOWINGLY
remain,
Yours truly,
w. A. STREET.

= 1t has been called to the attention
Of the Belington Civic League, that
the Salvation Army, of Elkins, has
been allowing young children to So
licit the city at various times through
out the winter. While the League rec
ognizes the value of this organization
and fully appreciates the exceptional
work they have accomplished, they
deplore the fact that children are per-
mitted to solicit from door to door,
An instance of the gravity of this
ago.
A home which was under quaran-
tine for a contagious disease, was
visited by little girl, working
through the Elkins Post of the Saliva
ton Army. She neglected TO obey
the quarantine sign, and her knock be-
ing answered by child, gave her the
envelope and waited until it was re
turned to her. The danger of this oc-
currence can readily be een;-not
only did she expose herself, but under
the extreme circumstances of the case
in question, ran the risk of carrying
The disease to her home city.
The members of the Civic League,
as we'll as all the citizens of Being
tor, stand behind the Salvation Army
\ their splendid work, and are al
ways glad and willing to help them in
their efforts to aid humanity, but the
League begs that this worthy organi-
cation refrain from permitting chill
dren to canvass for funds.

is to reduce the tax on money, ac-
counts, notes and bonds to fifty cents
on the one hundred dollars and as
sess everything else at it's true and
actual value, regardless of what the
levy may be. AS l understand the
amendment it would reduce the tax
on money, notes, accounts, bonds. To
lay levy of fifty cents on the one
hundred dollars on money, notes, ac-
counts and bonds the money men, and
business men would pay not quite one
fourth, the tax that the real estate,
personal property owners would have
to pay at the present levy is now, the
present levy was $1.95 on the one
hundred dollars valuation.
If you want taxes reduced, have an
amendment to reduce or cut out some
of the surplus of our state and
county officers that I don't think we
have right to pay so much in salar-
les.
% The Sheriff we should pay his
salary but let him pay his own de-
puties and clerks
l2) The county engineer. we dent
need him.
(9y The circuit clerk we should pay
his salary but let him pay his own
clerk. ~.
a, Tbs county clerk we should
pay his salary bat let him pay his
own clerks. ~
(6) The prosecuting attorney his
salary is II right but let him pay his
own assistant and clerk. .,-z.
Is, The assessor his salary is all
right but let him pay his own depu-
ties and clerks. n
You figure up what the above
amounts to and you will see what a
reduction it would be in our taxes.
Why can't it be done like it was less
than twenty five or thirty years ago,
when one man did the same work as
now. We had one sheriff, one clerk,
one prosecuting attorney and one
assessor and no county engineer.
They say taxes are so high on
money it is sending all the money
out of the state. These may be some
money invested out of the state but
the most of it is invested in bonds
and bank stock which is exempted
from tax Why not pay tax on bank
stock and bank capital stock and gov
eminent bonds? If you can show
tax payers wherever there was an
amendment to the constitution that
ever helped the taxpayers, we will all
vote for it.

RAILROAD TRACTION

General Rise in Quotations in

NEW YORK, February 3.-Interest
in bond trading today was confined
largely to speculative issues. the New

The movement in the fractions was
most pronounced in the lnterborouSn
obligations, where gains of over Z
points in the refunding 5s were ac-
companied by advances in less degree

That the attention paid to the New
York City Traction descriptions Is
founded on some purely local develop
ment expected soon is proved by the
fact that other traction bonds, such
as the Chicago Railways 5s, were
entirely unaffected.
The leader in the railroad group
was Denver and Rio Grande West

a point of the record this year and
within points of the best prices
of 1925. Missouri, Kansas, Texas adj

was a sharp run-up in Wheeling and
