But the big fruit bats, which live in

be accepted as pure speculation.
It has always been difficult to
read the Presidents mind and pro-
baby not until he delivers his an
nual message to Congress on jan
uary S will there be any clear-cut
definition of his program.
In general, however, the best in
formed Washington opinion is that
his aim will be to find ways Of in
creasing the production and distri-
button of commodities at the same
time increasing the general wage
level and shortening the working
hours in industry, and without per-
mitting too high proportion OF
corporate incomes to be distributed
as profits to capital.
In other words, the Administra-
tons purpose will likely be to so
control and regulate business as to
insure wider distribution of wealth.
That objective which, if reached,
would mean practically the abolition
of poverty and economic distress,
is one with which even the Admin
istration's vigorous opponents are
heartily in accord. Such differences
in opinion as may arise will be as
to whether the methods proposed
will accomplish that objective.
The President is believed to have
come around to the view that low
commodity prices don't necessarily
mean low wages. 1t is expected that

PROPERTY TAX
MAY BE REVISED

County Assessor-Elect Robert
H. FleiScher attended tht meeting
at Phoenix Monday of the Arizona
Association of County Assessors.
The association elected officers
this afternoon and went on record
for abolition of the state ad valorem
tax on property.
W. o. Ruggles, assessor of Mohave
county, was reelected president,
and j. D. Brush, assessor of Mari
copa county, was reelected secre-
tary.
The assessors explained that
abandonment of the property tax
would make each county independ-
ent of the others from a taxation
standpoint, and would correct the
existing situation in which the
greater the valuation of a particu-
lar county, the more that county
paws on the state rate.
No suggestions as to what kino
of tax should be substituted for
the ad valorem were made, the as
SCISSORS declaring that was prob
lem for the state legislature to
work out.
With the exception Of merchan-
disc, all classes of property in the
state next year will be valued on
the same basis as this year, the as
SCISSORS decided.
Merchandise in the past has been
assessed at 100 per cent value plus
freight. but for 1897 taxation pur-
poses. the tax authorities decided
this class of property will be as
sessed at actual cash value.
Leaders of the group explained
this plan would allow the assessors
some latitude in considering the
condition of the merchandise be-
fore placing a valuation upon 1t.
The assessors discussed proposed
legislation which would reneve
them of the task of issuing state
motor vehicle license plates and
would place that responsibility with
the state highway department.. In
this connection a bill has been
drafted for submission to the leg1s-
1ature which would give the coun-
ties rs per cent of the amount OF
personal property taxes collected on
each vehicle licensed.

JOBLESS MEN
MANLESS JOBS

BY Ray Gilbert, State Direc-
tor Arizona State Employment
Service National Unemployment
Service)
The United States Employment
Service is a permanent bureau OF
the Department of Labor charged
with responsibility for operating a
nationwide agency whose purpose
is to bring together jobless men and
manless jobs This service is free to
workers and to employers.
The Employment Service receives
application from wrokers-men and
women-in every conceivable occu-
patton: Road laborers, skilled build
ing tralesmen, machinists, office
clerks, stenographers, chefs, wait
reSseS, household workers, en-
gineers, architects, nurses, teachers
Employers call upon the Service for
workers of equally diversified types.
1t is the business of the Service to
attempt to fill each job with the
best qualified workers Conversely,
it is its business to attempt to
place each applicant in suitable
employment. Needless migration OF
workers is discouraged, but an at
tempt is made to meet labor
shortage in any locality or in any
occupation by the transfer of sur
plus workers who may be available
in some other part of the State, or
of neighboring State.
Careful matching of jobs and men
must not be done in a haphazard
manner. It requires trained and eX-
perienced interviewers who know
the Requirements of various jobs
and who know how to determine
workers qualifications. In order to
increase the efficiency of employ
ment office interviewers, the EN-
ployment Service is studying jobs
and the requirements which work
ers must possess to fill them sue
cessfully A by-product of this study
may be the determination of occu-
pations to which workers in per-
manently depressed industries or in
obsolete occupations may be trans
ferred with maximum utilization of
their actual ski1ls
The Employment Service is not to
be confused with a relief agency.
1t has no direct financial aid to Of
fer any applicant. It can refer an
applicant to a job only with an
employer has given notice that he
has a job to offer. Although the
Service can never guarantee a job,
each application who enters an en-
ployment office has a right to per-
sonal attention; to a sympathetic
hearing, devoid of indifference or
senitmentality; and to confidence
that he will receive consideration or
any job for which he is qualified.
