Tar Catches Fire

The fire department answered a
call Wednesday morning, to upper
Malta, and put out some burning
road tar. The tar was in drums,
and some rubbish was set on fire
about them to soften the tar. When
it became hot, 1t ran out Of the con-
tainers into the fire and ignited,
making quite blaze. Very near
by, on the railroad track, were two
car loads of tar, and with the Cal
vert-Mummey lumber shed just be-
yond the tanks, the chances are
that a very disastrous Are might
have resulted had the wind been
from the opposite direction.

NOTICE TO TAX PAYERS

taking this opportunity to inform
you that the 121a% reduction on
farm land last year and the 1919
reduction on all real estate this
year, effective on this coming De-
cember tax, was given you under
the authority of the following Sec
ton of law as it appears word for
word in the General Code of Ohio:
Section 5548-1. "Revaluation in
subdivision when change in value
occurs: notification: In any year
after the year in which an assess
ment has been made by the county
auditor of all the real estate in any
subdivision as herein provided, it
shall be the duty of such auditor at
part of the real estate contained in
such subdivision where he finds that
the same has changed in value, or is
not on the duplicate at it's true val
ue in money, and in such case he
shall determine the true value
thereof in money, as herein provid-
ed for assessing the entire property
in any such subdivision. In such
case the county auditor shall notify
the owner of such real estate, or the
person in whose name the same
stands charged on the duplicate Of
his intention to reassess such rea;
estate and of the change in valua-
tion thereof in such reassessment.
and in case the owner of such real
estate is not satisfied with such re-
assessment, the same shall be heard
at the next ensuing session of the
county board of revision, and such
owner shall have the right to appeal
therefrom to the tax commission Of
Ohio as provided in other cases."
These reductions have caused
considerable extra work in the aud
itor's office, without extra cost to
the tax payers, which we were glad
to do, realizing it's necessity on ac-
count Of depreciation in values of
real estate.
1t has been suggested by some
that if we lowered the valuation on
real estate that the tax rate would
be raised. We have letter from
Tax Commission of Ohio (subject to
inspection at any time), Of accept
ance of the tax rate as submitted
to the commission by the county
auditor for approval, in which Mr..
Kraus, special accountant, refers to
the rates as follows: tThe writer
notes that you have a lower rate in
every district in Morgan county for
this year. This appears very COM
mendable on your part
Our administration in the aud
itor's office has been economical as
our books show. Besides we have
collected back taxes from estates in
an approximate amount of $10,-
10000, and turned into the Nor
gan county treasury, during our ad-
ministration.-H. w. GORDON.

COUNT OF JOBLESS
WILL EXCEED 5000
Most of Unemployed in Dis
trict Willing to Take Any
Kind of Work.

Five to seven thousand persons reg
istered at the public schools yesterday
In the District survey on unemployment
and most Of them are willing to take
any kind Of q Job. It was disclosed last
night by the Commissioners Committee
on Unemployment under whose auspices
the survey was conducted.
The yellow registration cards were
filled out at % schools and IN the
answers to the matter Of fact Quentluas
in some instances were written months
Of privation and hardship.
Exact Number Unknowm.
The exact number Of unemployed
registrants is not known. A rough esti-
mate was made late yesterday after
noon, after all school registration ofIices
had closed, by the Commissioners
Committee, at between 5000 and 1000.
The committee was inclined TO believe
that the number Of registrants when
brought to an exact figure, would be
nearer the higher number.
The registration yesterday opened at
Q o'clock throughout the city and ex-
ceeded the most optimistic expectations
Of the Commissioners Committee on
Unemployment, according to Chairman
Delano. The committee previously had
stressed the point that 100 per cent
cooperation from the jobless was
necessary for the ultimate success Of
the campaign to get the jobless Jobs,

istration reached as near 100 per cent
registration as was possible with the

HAVANA, November l5.-Three men
were arrested today after an attack on

DEGREES
LACK OF LEADERSHIP
Both Parties Missed Chance
to End Depression, He
Says, Urging Action.

Senator Henrik Shipstead Of Mime
sofa chided the Democrats and Re-
publicans for their mutual assurances
OF -partisanship In a radio address
last night. He also charged both par
ties with having muffed opportunities
to end the period Of depression and an
nounced definitely his position on pro-
posed legislation.
The Farm-Labor Senator, who has
been pictured as . dominant figure In
the Senate In what is to be an almost
evenly balanced Eexenty-second Com
sress, spoke IN the National Radio
Forum, arranged by The washington
Star and broadcast over the coast-to-
coast network Of the Columbia Broad
casting System. 1t was carried locally
by Station WMAL.
The ideas lately dominant in the
management of the country were very
considerably repudiated by the people
at the polls last week." he said. "The
party which in the Senate and in the
House Of Representatives was the bene-
nciary Of that reputation now saws
that its main idea win be to 'co-operate'
with the party which was the victim of
that reputation. Surely there must be
somewhere some idea more 'construc-
tive more positive than the ideal Of
cooperation with ideas which the
country has found unsatisfying."
Outlines Own Program.
Emphasizing that he spoke neither
for the Republicans nor for the Demo-
Gratis, neither for the administration
nor for the opposition" Shipstead then
outlined what he conceives to be q con-
structive program. He listed seven leg
islative proposals, some Of Democratic
origin and some emanating from the
administration, and indicated that he
viii stand for them In the new Congress,
regardless of who puts them forward.
Doubtless In time each party will
confide TO you its new ideas for curing
our newly emphasized distresses," he
said. They have not yet, as parties,
done so. There are many things" he
added, which, in my judgment, we
might properly long ago have done to
strengthen the boat in which we are
sailing our national course. advocate
