ARLINGTON FACING
FINANCIAL PLIGHT
Only Collection on Bonds for
Alleged Shortages
~
Would Help.
BY LESTER N. INSKEEP,
staff Correspondent of The Star.

ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE. Va,
November 26.-Arlington County will
find itself in serious financial straits
during the first part of the coming
year even if tax collections reach their
usual total before December S, it was
indicated today by estimates received
from the treasurers Office. The only
ray Of hope is the possibility of the
collection from the bonding companies
of a substantial portion of the alleged
shortages in the accounts of the former
treasurer and former clerk, it was said.
Collections of 1882 levies, which have
been under way but short time, have
reached a total of 100000 and are ex-
pected to reach approximately $380,000
or so per cent of the total levy, by
December 5, it was stated in the treas
urer's Office.
The expected total Of S380.000 will
be supplemented by about $4,000 in de-
linquent tax collections. it is believed,
bringing the total collections to De-
cember 5 to approximately $3S8.0O0.
S255,O0o Must Be Deducted.
From the total, it was pointed out,
IIl6IE Will IldtC W Dc uCOQCICO lAlC SNAAA
of S255 900 in County Board and School
Board notes required by law to be paid
by December IS and two pay rolls total
ing approximately $4,000 each. before
the county and school boards can an
ticipate the amount of money available
to run the local government.
If the collections run as high as ex-
pected by the treasurer'S office, the
county, therefore, will find itself with
approximately $4,000 after the heavy
tax collection period, an amount be-
lieyed to be so small as to require the
utmost care in expenditures to prevent
deficit and the necessity for further
loans.
1t is expected that the remaining
40 per cent Of taxes Will be slow in
coming in, since those who failed to
pay by December 5 will already have
had 5 per cent penalty added to
their bills and will not be subject to
an additional penalty before next June,
County Now Can Make Loans.
In view of these circumstances, it is
believed certain that additional loans
will have to be made if any major
programs of improvement or conStruc-
ton are to be attempted by the county
prior to next June. Until last year the
county could not have negotiated new
loans until the end of the fiscal year,
June 80. but by an act of the General
Assembly is now permitted to make
loans after January Is.
The treasurers Office today called at
tention to the fact that all tax bills
have not been sent out because the
addresses of some property owners are
not known. In other cases bills have
been rsSarned undelivered. Persons who
have l1ct received their bills are not
exempted fro mthe penalty for failure |
to pay their taxes on time. =,

OAXACA CITY, Mexico. November
26-Skeletons of two apparently i'm
portant warriors of the ancient Zapotec
Tribe of Southern Mexico were found
today when Prof. Alfonso Caso's expe-
dition opened tomb No. IL on Monte
Alban.
Government archeologists have de-
scribed the finds made in Oaxaca early
this year as the richest on this con-
tinent. Ten tombs previously had been
revealed. Examples of the highly civil
ized art of relief painting in brilliant
colors were discovered last Tuesday,
Excavation was begun today on the
long mound in the center of the great
plaza, called the Patio of the Sun, and
a series of terraced pyramids at the
north and south ends of the platform
were being uncovered.
The skeletons discovered today were
buried as bones, not as corpses IN ac-
cordance with the ancient Zapotecan
custom. Pottery dishes fourd beside
the skeletons appear to have contained
food.
The long mound is the focal spot of
the city's acropolis and is being washed
carefully by archeologists. The pyra-
nlids appear to be in excellent condi-
tion and were described as important
architecturally.

a career is based. In 1904 he went

by God, sir, saw nothing"
In his cabin on the grand old
four-sacker Aquitania, Captain
Robert B. Irving pulled at his
pipe and grinned. He stuck to
his story:
Il give you my word the first
ten minutes of the firing I might
have done anything for all I
know. I can't remember.

enemy that afternoon of May 81,

They saw fishing boats sail,
then beside it cruiser which
they soon recognized as the old
Russian Pilau, taken over by the
Germans. The squadron plunged
out to investigate.
"It was clear and smooth" Cap
tain Irving remembered. "We saw
the whole German feet coming
over the horizon in battle array.
Everybody thought it lovely
sight, for we were fed up with the
war and wanted to finish it,"
Sitting through his memory of
that terrific cannonade, the cap
tain did recall seeing at close
range the battle cruisers Queen
Mary and Indefatigable, both of
which were sunk within half an
hour.
THE interchangeable was about
300 yards on our port quarter
when she fired one salvo of her
broadside,' he said. What a
noise, and what a tremendous
WHO'D of smoke and of rubbish
she kicked up.
Then we ran clean at their
cruiser Derfflinger, bang in to
about 1000 yards, let go a torpedo
at her and turned. Yes, we helped
damage her, but she got back
home.
