THE SCHOOL TAX LEVY

On entering the polls election day,
the voters of Hamilton will be hand
ed ballot known as the tissues and
questions" ballot, on which will be
found the question of special two
mill tax levy for school maintenance
during a period of three years begin
ming January /, 1888. This proposed
special levy is to take the place of
the special levy voted three years
ago, but which expires December 81
1882.
The levy voted three years ago was
1.25 mills and was expected to bring
approximately $125,000 year, but it
fell far short of the amount, as wit
ness this year when it will only bring
about $4,000. Since the last levy
voted there has been reappraise-
ment of property and as result of
it, a horizontal cut for the entire
county, an additional cut for the city
of Hamilton, and the new classified
tax law, the tax duplicate for the
Hamilton city school district has been
cut 36.9 per cent since 1880. And, as
always, with lower property valua-
ton, higher tax rate. And for that
reason, to obtain approximately
$125,000, which the officials say is
needed, it is necessary to levy two
mills on the present tax duplicate
which is $62,654,32O.
The board of education, in asking
for the two-mill levy, is not asking
taxpayers to increase taxes for
school purposes, but that they agree
to pay approximately the same sum
for this purpose which they have been
paying during the past three years.
1t means simply this, if Hamilton
schools are to continue under the
same high standard of the past it
will be necessary to vote the two
mills asked. Two mills mean So on
each $1,000 property valuation on the
tax duplicate. In other words, if one
is on the tax duplicate for $4,000 he
will pay So year additional under
the two-mill special levy, etc.
The Press believes the people will
not want let-down in the city's
school work and will vote eyes"
on the levy.

testing against members of other
trades working at the printing trade

about many things. sometimes pre-

sometimes recklessly.

Glimmerings of hope spatter their
way through the gloom that has
shrouded the landscape for 10, these
many months. Reports come telling
of new jobs and new enterprises. In
many communities there is a move
ment back to work.
Other and deeper signs of i'm
provement, meaning more in the long
run, but not so appealing to the aver.
age mind, are found in the credit
situation, in the figures about the
gold supply and in statistics about
prices and export trade.
Every item of good news ought to
bring cheer and most folks will
see matters that way.
But, strange as it may seem, there
are many who will not cheer and who
will accept every piece Of good news
with doubt and cynicism.
Certain types live on bad news
and what feast they have had these
last three years.
Sure enough, there is plenty of bae
! news yet and all through the winte,
there will be plenty, for it seems i'm.
possible that even the best of news
can bring work for eleven millions
now idle.
There is bad news, too, in the fact
| that banks, overloaded with money
still do not lend and that many en-.
terprises, SO accustomed to fear that
they have forgotten courage, are
timid about asking loans that are
warranted and needed The credit
situation is this: There is plenty of
money, but not the courage or the
willingness to turn it loose.
But there are items of good news

piece of good news. Why not?
Whoever said that trade unionists
had to be long-faced? Not when
there is anything to be happy about!
Let us not see false hope, but let
us take advantage of every legitimate
hope that comes along.
The nation has gone through ter
rifle struggle and it is through the
worst of it. There has been more of
victory than most of us realize and
more is to come. This is partly due
to the fact that trade unions have
kept their heads.
Therefore, let us be on the watch

LEST WE FORGET

Lest we forget and just to remind
us to remember-Taystee, Butter
Cream, and Sweetheart bread, prod
ucts of the Purity Baking Company
as well as all other products of this
company, do not bear the union label
and are unfair to Bakers Local Union
No. S18 and all organized labor. The
strike of the union bakers against the
unfair conditions of the Purity Bak-
ing Co. goes merrily on with public
sentiment leaning stronger with the
strikers right along, and each day
business at the plant growing less.
The banner parading before the plant
on South Third street has become a
familiar sight and a continuous re-
minder to those who daily see it of
the valiant struggle of the union bak-
ers for fair, just and decent living
conditions.
And don't think for minute that
that banner hasn't brought much
sympathy to the unionists from the
bread buying public and condemnation
of the Purity officials for their unfair
attitude towards their former en-
ployes. Surely there must be burn
ing of the ears in the Third and Syc-
amore streets vicinity these days.

re-opens after having been closed
eleven months. On the opening day
deposits exceeded Withdrawals by ten

visited the institution.

re-opening proves it.

GAINS MARKED
In Production Bring Opti-
mistic Note
By RALPH F. COUCH

washington, ID. {. NS)-Manu-
featuring operations now are in
creasing at rate that is larger than
is seasonal for the fall months, ac-
cording to statistical record just
compiled by the Federal Reserve
Board. The record deals with activity
in July and August and in the form
of an index number
The August index number rose to
60 points from 81 in July. Normal
manufacturing activity is represented
by 100 points. Thus, from July to
August, the index advanced points.
Gains Through September
The board also announced numbers
showing the condition of four other
lines of activity. The index number
for mining remained steady at 64
points, indicating that progress in this
line was exactly normal, no greater
and no less than is seasonal. The
construction index rose from 27 to 20
points, points more than is seasonal.
Railroad freight car loadings re-
mained unchanged for both months at
81 points. Retail trade, as revealed
by department store sales, fell from
81 points in July to &C points in Au-
gust, meaning that although sales
were larger, the gain was less than
is seasonal.
The September index numbers,
when computed are expected to show
additional advances in all lines except
possibly construction. Informal trade
reports indicate that gains made from
July to August were carried over into
September.
Rail Tonnage Gains
Railroad freight tonnage is show
ing an increase that is substantial, ac-
cording to reports compiled by the
American Railway Association.
The number of cars loaded by Glass
One roads advanced to 87,502 in the
week ended September IT, according
to the news report. This is at the
rate of better than $4,000 cars daily.
In the preceding week, the daily load
ing rate was at virtually the same
high level although the total for the
entire week was only SOL 1924 cars be-
cause of Labor Day
Steel Moves Upward
The production of steel ingots is
going forward at the rate of 1712 per
cent of capacity, according to the Iron
Age. This is the highest rate OF
operation achieved by the steel indus
try since the week of June IL, when
the mills reported 18 per cent of ca
pacity.
Improvement has been steady for
the four consecutive weeks. For the
week ending September 3 the operat-
inc rate was II per cent. In the fol-
lowing week of September 10, the
rate advanced to Is per cent, fol-
lowed by the fuftnef gam Oh 10 per
cent in the week of September l6.
Several railroads, however, have
announced during the last few days
the reopening of their car construc-
ton and repair shops and have called
men back to work Among these are
the New York Central, Pennsylvania,
Baltimore & Ohio, the Central of New
Jersey and the New York, New
Haven & Hartford. Most of them
have received or have applied for
loans from the Reconstruction FL
nance Corporation with which to do
the work

COLD WAVE is
DUE TO BREAK
Snow Is Second Heaviest of
Winter in City.

Blanketed under the second
heaviest snowfall of the winter, the
city awoke today to sunny skies and
crisp temperatures bringing gener-
ally fair weather and promise of
warmer, although the mercury
dropped to Is at 9.
Sunday night IL inches of snow
fell here and in central Indiana,
third measurable snowfall of the
year. On Nov. 81, 1881, 80 inches
of snow fell, heaviest this winter
On Jan. 9, 2 inch was recorded.
j. H. Arlington, weather fore
caster, said the mercury gradually

ture about IS, he said.
Severe cold continued today in

try, although temperatures in the
Rockies and Montana were from Is

Leads Hitler by 7 Million,
but Fails of Majority;
Reelection Seen.
BY ERIC KEYSER
United Press Staff Correspondent

BERLIN, March 14.-President
Paul Won Hindenburg, seeking re-
election in what may be the last
battle of a glorious career, turned
back a Fascist bid for power in the
presidential election Sunday, but
failed to win an absolute majority
over four candidates opposing him.
Won Hindenburg led his nearest
rival, the dapper Adolph Hitler, who
heads the German Fascists, by
more than 100000 votes.
Official figures in preliminary
final returns showed the President
had. failed by 168,453 votes to win
an absolute majority, so second
ballot will be necessary in April he
tween the two leaders, Hindenburg
and Hitler.
Vote Breaks Records
The total vote Sunday was ap-
proximately 37,660,377 out of 44,000,-
900 qualified voters, breaking all
German records. The election was
orderly.
The official standing of the candi-
dates with preliminary final returns
in from all districts was

Winter, a lawyer now in Jail in

manded the valorization of prewar
German currency. His candidacy
was not taken seriously, but Hin
denburg supporters believed it split
votes, preventing the president from
obtaining an absolute majority.
Tribute to Hindenburg
Won Hindenburg, field marshal
whose line across the western front
was the last defense of imperial
Germany, received one of the great
est popular tributes ever given a
public figure in Germany. The "a
year-old executive had been called
from retirement to become presi-
dent of the republic.
Hitler, who had staked everything
on the prospect of a complete
Fascist victory or defeat which
might ruin his party, failed to make
the political gains he had predicted.
The government expressed COM
plete confidence that Won Hinden-
burg would give his younger rival
a severe beating in the runof in
April. Victory for the staunch,
gray-haired president will mean
that Germany is determined to
continue along a moderate path in
internal and international affairs.
Elevation of Hitler would have
given the Nazis the opportunity
to carry out their extremist and
radical threats.
Failure of the Communists to in
crease their strength was one of
the surprising features OF the cleo
ton.
