MARION BANKER ELECTED HEAD OF STATE ASS’N Andrew Smith of Indianapolis Continues to Hold Office of Secretary. SHIRK WINS LOVING CUP John A. Rbue, vice president of the Marion National Bank of Marlon, was elected president of the Indiana Bankers' Association at the closing session of the twenty-fifth annual convention today at the Claypool Hotel. C. D. Billings of Seymour was elected vice president; Andrew Smith, Indianapolis. was re-elected secretary; Frank Pale Thompson, Edinburg, was elected treasurer, and Charles L. Ziegler, South Bend, was elected a member of the council -of administration. A loving cup was awarded to J. W. Shirk of Brookvllle as the group chairman reporting the greatest percentage of county organizations this year, his showing being 100 per cent. A nuihber of resolutions were adopted, among them being the following: One stating that In the Judgment of the association there Is no demand for business purposes In Indiana for the coinage of a two and one-half cent piece, a two-cent piece or a one-half-cent piece; that the coinage ol any such coins "would cause great Inconvenience and Introduce disorder In our own simple and satisfactory coinage system;” that "the suggestion that we have a Roosevelt memorial coin appeals to the sentiment of the American people who have such a high regard for the late Theodore Roosevelt, bnt the Nation certainly can show the respect in which his memory is held la a much better way than to disrupt the coinage system of our country by Injecting a coin which is not needed.” A copy of this resolution will be sent to each Representative In Congress and the two Senators from Indiana and to the chairmen of the two committees in the House and Senate who have charge cf the proposed legislation. PLAN FIGHT ON HANK ROBBERS. The matter of bank robberies was taken up in a resolution which stated in part: "Resolved, that this convention endorse the plan followed by the president and secretary in raising the funds necessary to prosecute the men who attempted to Tob the bank of Culver. We recommend that the plan be followed during the coming year whenever it is found necessary to increase the protective fund for the purpose of bringing to Justice those who attempt to rob any of our members.”

The following resolution relative to the recent death of Volney T. Malott was adopted: "Whereas, after a life of more than four score years, full of great activity and achievement, death has called from our midst the of Indiana bankers, Mr. Volney T. Xfalott, be it therefore, “Resolved, That we acknowledge our deep sense of loss in the passing of one whose personality contributed so much to the development of our great State. Endowed with unusual talents, his influence in business and finance placed him among the foremost men of his day. The memory of his gentle presence, wise counsel and genial fellowship will abide with ns as the years pass on.” WANT CHANGE IN TAX LAWS. It was resolved that “in the interest of fairness. Justice and equity the income tax laws affecting banks should be amended and a tax levied upon the banks according to their net profits, and a form of report adopted that will enable banks to make such reports without the necessity of employing expert accountants for such purpose. Under such revised laws the banks should be given credit and allowed a deduction for all Income taxes paid. That the farmers of Indiana are the largest single producers of wealth in the State was set forth in another resolution adopted and which read as follows: “Whereas, in the readjustment of conditions after the great World War the prices of his products have been forced down to a pre-war basis, faster than many other commodities, thereby causing untold losses and hardship, be it “Resolved, that the members of this association study his needs with the utmost care and extend to him every possible aid in the adjustment of bis affairs, consistent with sound banking." Following a short talk by Mead A. Kelsey, Indianapolis, State secretary of the Near East Relief, a resolution was adopted approving the work and commending it to the sympathy and cooperation of the people of the State. It was resolved in the resolution that the United States Senators from Indiana be asked to support a suitable measure for the protection of Armenians and Christian subjects of Turkey. "Twenty-two States have abandoned the general property tax. They have provided for the classification of property for taxation, while some of the States have also provided for the collection of Income taxes,” said State Senator Winfield Miller, in his address on "The Failure of the General Property Tax,” before the bankers. Mr. Miller's remarks had reference to the proposed amendments to the State Constitution which will be voted on this fall. “If these changes in tax methods were confined to a few States.” Mr. Miller continned, “or their action were of recent date, none of them would be given as examples of good results, with any degree of assurance. But the reform is not all roeent nor confined to any particular locality through the force of suddenly required radical notions or peculiar local conditions. It is widespread, takes in the great industrial as well as many of the distinctively agricultural States. In thetr departure from the general property tax. The story of the good results is the same, either for a short or long period. LARGER INCOME FROM CHANGE. “I will present briefly five examples of the reanlts of classification. Kentucky changed its system in 1917. In that year the bank deposits listed in that State were $11,177,196, taxed at 55 cents on the SIOO, yielding a revenue of $61,474.58. In 1919, two years later, under the new system. the deposits listed were f209.303.034. taxed at 10 cents on the SIOO, less than one-fifth of the former rate, yielding in taxes 5209.363.03. In twenty-five years under the general property tax the bank deposits on the duplicates had risen only from $8,000,000 to f11.000.000. “South Dakota in 1919 passed a “money and credits act' which levies 3 mills cn the dollar. In 1918, the previous year, under the general property tax and high rate, only 9,524 pprsons listed moneys and credits In 1919 under the classified system 68.593 persons listed moneys and credits. The increase in revenue in 1919 at 3 mills over that of 1918 at a much higher rate was 314 per cent. The South Dakota 1920 tax report says: “The re-

turn from money and credits under the lower rate of 3 mills on the dollar is gratifying when compared with the return annually received from this class of property prior to the enactment of the money and credit act, but the actual taxes from this class of property has been doubled as compared with the year preceding this act. The number of persons furnishing lists increasing over 600 per cent the first year.’ ” REASONABLE RATES INCREASE HE YEN lE. After citing cases in other States, Mr. Hiller said: “The results of classification show clearly: “l.That reasonable rates on personality increase revenue. "2. That as revenue Is Increased on

this class of property, lands and other tangibles can have relief in the burden of taxation. “3. Reasonable classification develops the State with steady multiplication of taxable property. “Like motives and incentives Influence men much the same wherever found. It Is. therefore, reasonable to assume that similar laws as to taxation. If enacted in Indiana, would operate with similar results. This would bring revenue to the State, now lost, with the possibility that the increasing load upon the tangible property and the inescapable Intangibles, could be lightened.” Other teaiurea on the program included an invocation by the Rev. George Sava ry; a general discussion of county association activities and practical banking topics, and an address on "The Constitution Our Safeguard,” by Harry F. Atwood, of Chicago. In his address, Mr. Atwood, after discussing various features of the Constitution said: “Now there is a general impression that the Constitution is rather dry, difficult document to understand, and most of our writers npon the Constitution who have tried to appear scholarly and written books of four or five hundred pages on it, have made each part of their writings more difficult to understand than the Constitution itself; but it is a very simple document. Like all great things, it is as simple as the ten digits, as simple as the Gojden Rule, as simple as the Ten Commandments, as simple as the mechanism of u clock.”

BUCK PASSED TO UNITED STATES League of Nations Council Expects America to Avert Balkan War. GENEVA, June 23.—The League of Nations council today entrusted the United States with the task of preventing another Balkan war. The league declined to consider Albania's request t fix her boundary lines and compel the withdrawal of Serbia and Greece from her territory. An Albanian delegation which appeared before the council declared another Balkan war would result if Greece should be given a piece of Albania soil to reimburse her for withdrawing from Smyrna. The delegation made the war threat openly and stated freely that it understood the council was considering some such settlement of the Near East problem. The Albanians consented to the council's passing the problem along to the ambassadors council when it was urged that the United States Is represented on that body. The league council will pass along to the ambassadors a number of telegrams from Albanians In America, urging that there be no participation of their mother country.

PATCHES UP CITY AND TROLLEY ROW Temporary Truce Agreed to in Lafayette Case.

The controversy between city officials of Lafayette and the Terre Haute In dianapolis and Eastern Traction Company which has been raging for months was settled foe the time being at least by Judge Ferdinand A. Geiger in Federal Court today. Judge Geiger entered an order, which had been arranged by the parties to the controversy after the Judge had directed them to get together, giving the city of Lafayette three days to replace the fifteen feet of track which wa* removed by the city. This will enable the traction company to operate its ca *s by the way of Kossuth street to the interurban station. He also gave the city thirty days in which to restore 2.00t> feet of tracks in Main street which •sere torn up when the street was paved. However, the court Indicated that if it were shown that thirty days was not sufficient time in which to accomplish this work he would extend It. Judge Geiger made it perfectly plain to Will H. Latta, attorney for the T. IL, I. A E. Company, that the company could not expect to operate heavy lnterurban cars on light city car rails without paying for the damage done to the tracks. Mr. Latta had taken the at titude that the company should not be put to any expense in the matter. It developed during the argument that the operation of intemrban cars increased the maintenance cost of the city car tracks by about $135 a week, and the court insisted that the order should provide that the traction company bear a substantial portion of this expense, and should pay the additional cost to the local company caused by the operating of interurban cars over the new route as compared with operating costs on the old Main street line.

Gets Y~ear When He Makes Guilty Plea

Arthur Thompson of St. Louis, charged with violation of the Mann white slave act. was sentenced to six months in the Marion County Jail today by Judge Ferdinand A. Geiger, when he appeared in court and changed his plea of not guilty, which he entered yesterday, to guilty. Harry Avery, who lives near Noblesvllle, on a farm, and who was indicted with Thompson, is now serving a three-month sentence for the same offense. He spent three months In Jail before being sentenced. Thompson and Avery are charged with having transported Lucille Cunningham and Alene Jenkins from St. Louis to Anderson. Thompson enlivened court proceedings with a long story related to Jndge Geiger. He told how he had been gassed while in service in France and of his meeting with the Cunningham girl. “We became friendly—well, in fact, judge, too friendly,” he told the court.

A. F. OF L. RAPS COURTS’ USEY)F THE INJUNCTION Calls for Campaign to Bring ‘lntolerablfe Practice’ to an End. STAND TAKEN ON ISSUES

DENVER, Colo., June 23. —The American Federation of Labor today condemned the Kansas Industrial Court and protested against the “alarming tendency of the courts to use the tyranny of injunctions.” Labor leaders declared the “injunction menaces the existenceof American workers as free men.” Resolutions adopted by the convention called upon all labor organizations to conduct energetic campaigns until the "intolerable practice is abandoned.” RESOLUTIONS ARE ADOPTED. The convention adopted resolutions urging unions to purchase bonds of North Dakota; indorsing Federal control of packing plants urging reclassifications Os civil service employes and proposing an increase in the retirement annuity for retired Government employes. Labor leaders gathered up the loose ends of their annual convention prepara tory to the election of officers tomorrow On the basis of a canvass of the delegation, John L. Lewis, challenger of Samuel Gompers for the pres'deney of the American Federation of I bor, still lacke 6,000 votes of the number necessary to elect him. LEWIS AFTER SUPPORT OF RAILROAD WORKERS. A delegation much sought by the Lewis faction was that composed of railroad workers. It was still wavering between Lewis and Gompers, despite appeals made by Lewis in support of a resolution favored by the railroaders, calling for Government ownership of railroads. Gompers’ supporters took the wind out of Lewis’ sails, however, by having several of their number speak In support of the same resolution. One of the most important actions of the convention, in the opinion of delegates who have been workers on the problem of unemployment, was the declaration against a Federal unemployment insurance. The convention refused to advocate an unemployment insurance under control of the Federal Government, after several speakers pointed out that such a policy would place workers under complete control of the Government. DEFEAT PROPOSAL FOR WAR POWER CHANGE. The convention defeated a resolution favoring taking tbe war making power from Congress and place 1t directly in the hands of the people. A proposal by delegate Q. H. Gardner, of Cleburne, Texas, demanding a referendum vote of all people of the United States on a declaration of var, was Toted down after a hot debate.
