ONLY WAY OUT, IS SIMS’ ALIBI ON TAX RAISES Chairman of State Board, in Speech, Excuses Horizontal Jump in Valuations. TELLS OF PROTESTS Excusing horizontal increases In tax valuations on the ground that they were the only way out, Fred A- Sima, chairman of the state board of tax commission, yesterday explained the activities of the board In enforcing the lour in n speech before the annual conference of county assessors at the statehouse. Mr. Sima said that the horizontal Increases were made necessary by love valuations and that they were the only way out of the dlffculty. ‘“The increases brought a storm of protest about our heads,'* he said. “We knew when the orders were Issued that they would be the cause of more trouble than any previous order ever Issued by this or any other board. Despite this fact It was the only thing that could be done Under the drcumetancea, We could sot re-assess property and we could not turn the aneesmenta back to the county beards of review,**, HOPES NO MORE INCH*ABES. Mr, Sims expressed tbs hope that horizontal increases will act again be necessary. He said the horizontal Increases are the least understood of anything that was done by the board. He explained that before the increases were oredred the tax board sought all the information available touching the value of property la the state. He said the board also asked that taxpayers come in and explain the situations In their respective communities. Rims declared that in some cases taxpayers complained of low assessment of tlie property of their neighbors and that these cases wer investigated. Ha said that In addition to these things the tax board inspected real estate transfers In every county In the state and that It studied the report of the Ralston commission on property values. Mr. Rims told the assessors that it is a matter of common knowledge that previous property has been assessed at from 12 per cent to 45 per cent of Its true cash value. Based on the deta'led Investigations made by the board, counties and cities were classified as to the value of real estate. He read to the assessors a list of counties In the order of the value of j farm land. Marlon county was first, with j Benton county second and Tipton coun- | ■ty third. Brown, county was last on the list. THE BASIS FOR THE INCREASE. This list was the basis of the hori- j zontal Increases, Mr. Sims explained. He 6ald that the next question was to de- ; termlne whether the assessments in these counties met the classifications by actual j land value. He said that this comparison showed that some townships has been assessed on one basis and others op another. He said that in some townships valuations were up to the true cash 1 value of property and that in others ttaa j valuation were so low that It was necessary to double them. Ho said it was out ! of the question to consider individual i pieces of property and that the board I could compare only totals and averages. “There was nothing left for us to do j but order horizontal increases, unless we proposed to let the whole law go to pot,” | he said. “There was no escape. We could do nothing but order horizontal ! increases or admit that our law was a failure. "There is no doubt that the power of levying horizontal increases is an arbi- ! trary power but it treats all alike. If through the horizontal increases some property was raised to more than their true cash value it was valued too high In the first place as compared with surrounding property. If whole counties were to be raised it would mean the penalizing of correctly assessed townships.” In discussing ihe assessment of personal property Mr. Sims said that in some townships real estate values were 1 Increased three times while personal property was hardly increased at all. He said that if this condition had been permitted to exist real estate would have borne an unfair share* of the burden. Ho appealed to the to give personal property particular attention this year and said that it can be increased to higher valuations even than those brought about by the horizontal increases. EXPEUXS POWER OF THE COMMISSION. In explaining the power of the commission over tax rates Mr. Sims ‘aid that some check was necessary with the high valuations. ' “Many persons^in the state object to the state board controlling bond Issues,” .lie said. “No oile is more Anxious that the board be relieved of this power than I am myself. They don't dare to take this power away from us, however, un- j iess the legislature provides some other | check on iioird i-sues.” Mr. Sims explained the theory of the tax law was that no more taxes should bp collected this year than last year Without the permission of the tax board. He said the board did not anticipate many petitions for this consent and that it was surprised when they came in a j downpour. He said this was due to the fact that there had been nothing done in the way of public improvements for two years and that the cost of government, greatly Increased with the increased cost of living. He termed the fact that there were many requests for increases a tremendous disappointment. He said the situation would have been most dangerous without control. The tax board saved the taxpayers $12,000,000 in refusing to grant petitions and in cutting down the amount asked for in rhe petition, lie said. Mr. Sims said that southern Indiana has been bearing an unjust burden of taxation, but that under the new law the northern part is bearing its share of the burden. An appeal for confidence in the state board was made by the chairman in the course of his speech.

LIFE WITH JOY NOT LIFE OF JOY Mrs. Joy Gets DivorceA Joyfully Goes Way Without Joy. Joy, who la of warm Sicilian blood and an Influential mechanical engineer of Pittsburg, Pa., and Indianapolis, thinks that a husband has the right to j whip his wife when she doesn't obey. Joy aired his views yesterday, his ! English having a marked foreign accent, ' sounding like French, before Judge Louis j K. Kwbank of the circuit court. Mrs. Lillian K. Joy recited her ta'e of woe of the nine days of her married life to the dashing Sicilian and told of many "tights” with her husband. They were married three years ago j and in the tlrst nine days of their mar- | ri-d life the scene shifted from Indian- j apolis to Pittsburg "She, ze ladie, him mo among ze legs j and bita me on ze back,” said Joy with many gestures. “Bid she hit you on tho gtre- t car?” j asked Judge Kwbank. "Oui, she dida,” answered Joy, “she bita me slxn times right on de lega. Hurta much.” After Judge Kwbank had regained his judicial composure. Joy was asked if he struck his wife as many times that she had alleged. “I hada right to.” he said with satisfaction. ".She bita and bita me. Zo.” "The trouble with you is that you are unable to reconcile Kuropean standards of living with the high Indiana stand- j ard,” said Judge Kwbank. "We don’t j beat our wives In this 'tatc." The court asked Joy how much money j he made. “Oh,” he screamed. “Musta I glva her! moneys nh n n she gona v.ay?" “Under Indiana law, you must pay the ! attorney fee,” said the court. “Oh, I paya," smiled Joy. Judge Kwbank granted Mrs. Joy a di- j vorce and restored her maiden name of Lillian It. Fowler, besides ordering Joy j to pay bis wife's attorney fee of S4O. “She a mlghta flue ladie,” said Joy on | leaving the witness stand. Mrs. Joy did not ask for any alimony. SAYS HE CHOKED HER ‘ JUST LITTLE ’ Man With 17 Jobs in 10 Months Gets Another Chance. Seventeen jobs in ten months is the record of Kred Keeley, ITI3 West Twenty eighth street, according to his wife in city court jesterony. She also declared that she had bought all the furniture and her own clothes in that ten months of married life, in support of her claim that he had failed to provide. Keeley was charged with assault#and battery oh bis wife. He admitted that be choked her, after he had found a letter written by his wife to “Jack Barnes,” in which she said: ‘‘l have sent my husband away two nights and you have failed to call. Are you trying to make a fool out of me?” Keeley said he then tried to kiss and hug his wife, but that she had ;n her hand the heel of her shoe and pressed the nails against his face to force him away. Then I choked her just a little,” he. told the court. He exhibited the high heel of a slipper, from which long nails ; protruded. “Well, anyway, T nm through with him. I won’t live with him,” exclaimed the wife. “Judge, I will do anything in the world for her and give her all my money if she will live with me,” said Keeley. Judge Pritchard warned Iveeley about choking and striking Mrs. Keeley and continued the case indefinitely. HOW TO PLANT APPLE TREES.

CITY MAY USE HOTEL TO CARE FOR FLU CASES Spread of Disease Crowds All Hospitals and Emergency Wards Are Planned. DR. MORGAN IS HOPEFUL An emergency hospital will be established at the Metropole hotel If the Increase in influenza cases in the city warrants It. Members of the city board cl health met Thursday night to consider the matter of establishing such an institution, and it was decided to make preparations for taking care of overflow patients from other hospitals In the city. William Fortune, chairman of the Indianapolis chapter, American Red Cross, and Dwight S. Ritter, city purchasing agent, were appointed to carry out plans for the hospital. Mr. Ritter announced yesterday tbai John George, president of Brevort Hotel Company, agreed to hold the Metropole hotel for use as an emergency hospital until Saturday when the board will decide whether or not an addition is needed: \ Elmer Gay of the New York store Informed Mr. Ritter that a number of cots used at the last Shrlners’ convention are available. About 250 mattresses and n number of blankets used by state militia troops on strike duty are also available In case of an emergency. Efforts to get supplies from army hospitals will also be made. Local hospitals are now crowded to capacity, according to reports made at the health board meeting. Six Indianapolis hospitals have a total of 1,310 beds and It is said practically all of them are occupied. Dr. Herman G. Morgan, secretary of the board of health, said yesterday the Influenza situation here seems to be improving and he expects the disease to reach its peak by Saturday. If the disease is on the decline by that time the emergency hospital will not be needed. Fifty-six new cases of flu were reported to health department yesterday, bringing the total to 1,188. Seven pneumonia and two Influenza deaths during the twentyfour hours ending at 5 o’clock this morning were reported. Indianapolis ranks below the average in tlie January report compiled In Washington. The normal death rate is based on tho number of deaths out of each 1,000 population. During the past year it was 15.5. In January the death rate jumped to 25,2, with Washington having the highest rate of 41.3. Chicago was second with a death rate of 41.3. The rate in Kansas City was 30.5 aud in pavton, 0., 34.3. Indianapolis was below average with a death rate of 20.3. The present epidemic of Influenza and respiratory diseases has caused a shortage of nurseo arid the Public Health Nursing association is greatly handicapped in Combatting the disease, according to Miss Margaret Tapper, superintendent of the association.

Krug’s Memory of‘Wild Baby ’ Clings to Him Sits in Jail Talking of Actress Episode as Police Prepare Long List of Charges. Henry B. Krug, 28, who In a police episode with a “wild baby” a week ago, does not profess to be a fighter. He’s an attorney by profession. But Mr. Krug was behind the bars at the city jail early yesterday while the prosecuting attorney was filling out affidavits against him. Here Is why Mr. Krug was locked up, the police say: Drunkenness, operating an automobile while under the influence of liquor, operating a blind tiger and drawing deadly weapons. While Mr. Krug peered through the iron gate at the jail during the four-hour armistice the police imposed In such cases as his, his thoughts ran back to the “wild baby” episode of a -week ago. He didn’t seem to care a great deal about the charges under which he was held. It was the “wild baby” that Interested him. SAYS STORY OF “BABY” WAS ALE WRONG. “Say, you newspaper men sure got that story about me and Miss Laßue, the actress, all wrong,” he said. Krug’s face was speckled with dried blotches of blood from wounds he received in a fight early today. His shirt and collar also showed evidence of a struggle. “Why, I didn’t throw Miss Laßue downstairs at my old apartment on North New Jersey street that morning,” he said. “She wanted to go home and I called a taxi for her. She didn’t like it. She wanted to ride in a certain other cab. Then she got mad and picked up the telephone. I took it away from her because she used bad language. “She ran to the kitchen, got a butcher knife and said she would kill me. I got the knife away from her and pushed her out into the kail and closed the door. That’s all there was to it. “But, say, she was some ‘wild baby.* Don't forget that —she was some ‘wild baby.’ FOUND JUG OF WINE IN CAR. Krug was arrested by Lieut. Ball and Motor Police Weddle and Long at Meridian and Michigan streets yesterday. He was trying to start an automobile. His face was covered with blood and his left eye partially closed. In the automobile the police found a gallon glass jug partly filled with wine. Another empty jug was found In the tonneau. The place where Krug was trying to start his car is In front of the home of Lulu Cantwell, wife of a former saloon keeper. “I can’t understand why those fellows stopped in front of my house to light,” she told the police. In the Cantwell home John Duncan, 29, was found washing up after a supposed fight. He was arrested on a charge of assault and battery. Krug ciaims his automobile had been stolen and that he found Duncan driving It. A fight followed. Krug claims Duncan did most of the fighting. The former’s appearance convinced the police. Tho charge against Krug, of drawing a deadly weapon, dates back to the episode with Miss Anna Larue, the actress. Police say they were unable to find the attorney after the girl reported the case to them. Krug gave the name of John H. Krug when arrested. He has offices in the Hmne-Mansur building. When Duncan appeared at city court to answer the charge of assault and battery on Krug he was charged in a warrant sworn to by the attorney with stealing Krug’s automobile. Duncan was released on a cash bond. All the charges against Krug and Duncan was continued until Feb. 13 and Krug also was released on bond. Attempts of the police to find Miss Laßue to subpoena her into court today failed. Clerks at the Plaza hotel told the police thaj; she had left that hotel. CrffCKKNS’ VISION KEEN.

I have done all kinds of work and at present am an attendant at a State Hospital and am feeling fine. I have recommended your Vegetable Compound to dozens of my friends and shall always recommend it."— Lillian T. Tharp, 824 S. 6th St., Carrollton, Ky.
