CITIZENS OPPOSE
INCREASED TAXES
Higher Real Estate Levy in
District Fought by Logan.
Thomas Circle.

Opposing an increase of the real
estate tax over $3.50 a hundred, the
Logan Thomas Circle Citizens Asso-
citation at its meeting last night in
the Northminster Church went on
record as desiring some other method
of taxation if more revenue for the
District is required.
The resolution proposed by F. M.
Thompson was amended by Edward
Young, who proposed that sales tax
modelled after the Michigan sales tax
be adopted. This tax would be l cent
fiat on any purchase over 10 cents.
NJ A. Robbins argued the amendment
was unfair to business men and it was
voted down.
Charges that white slave ring was
operating in Washington and that this
ring was providing the collateral for
women arrested in connection with
disorderly houses, were made by
Young. The association called on the
Federation of Citizens Associations to
study the matter.
1t was decided that the group enter
a queen in the annual Halloween
parade. and that committee be ap-
pointed to decide what kind of an
entry the organization should make in
the parade. The committee is Edward
Brandstatter, NJ. A. Robbins, F. NJ.

Young and Brandstatter were ap-
pointed to seek a traffic light at

R|CHBERG FIGURES
A. r. of L. Head Says En-
pIoyment Summary Is
Not Complete.
NJ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Challenging Donald Richberg's sum-
mary of the unemployment situation
as incomplete, William Green, presi-
dent of the American Federation of
Labor, reported last night steady
increase in unemployment totaling ap-
proximately $4,000 since last Sep
tember. Green estimated the num-
Der of unemployed in July at 10,772,-
900. adding that these figures will be
higher because Of newly-made job
less in August.
"Mr. Richberg pointed out a few
days ago." Green said, that 2,300,000
persons had gone back to work from
June, 1888, to June, 1884. Our figures
correspond exactly with his and show
the same number returning to their
jobs. For this Unemployment we are
grateful indeed.
Present Problem Not Shown.
"Mr. Richberg did not, however,
discuss the present unemployment
problem, or suggest methods for put
ting the unemployed to work. Two
important facts should be considered
40 ASfANWAA6 tAAO aNAAASNCAAACAAto va
N. r. A. In unemployment:
"First, practically all of those who
went back to work were re-employed
between June and October, 1898;
there have been no significant en-
ployment gains since. From June to
October, 1893, 100000 were re-
employed; from october to June, 1894,
only 100000.
Secondly, there is constant
growth in the population seeking
gainful work, because the number of
young people coming of age for work
is larger than the number leaving
their jobs because of old age or
death.
This increase in gainful workers,
according to our estimates approx
mates 100000 year. When this
group Is accounted for, we find that,
although 2.3o0.00O went back to work
from June, 1888, to June, 1884 the
decrease In unemployment was less
than 1900, ,0oO."
Views Winter Conditions.
Green said he felt that unless the
Fall season puts these men ard
women to work again, we shall find
ourselves with worse problem of
unemployment this Winter than we
had last year.
We cannot indefinitely support
one-sixth of our population on money
borrowed against future taxes" he
said. Clearly, business men have no
solution to offer. The situation is a
challenge to tie Government to give
us plan which will finish the task
SO well begun last Summer and put
the rest OF the unemployed to work"
Green figured that while 1oo, 900
persons were re-employed from last
October to June, the increase in
those seeking work was about 3o0.-
600.

 "A group of business men in discussing the effectiveness of ad- ''vertising agreed that much value was destroyed by the use of too fine print too much nickel saving, as one man put it.
 Advertisers should mover lose an opportunity to display prices. Two farmers had adjoining road side stands.

One had conspicuous price signs that could be easily read by passing motorists; the other did not have price signs.
