IMPORT DUTIES TO BE SUBJECT OF DISCUSSION Chamber of Commerce Provides for Hearing of Views on Valuation Basis, Widely opposing points of view regarding the subject of American valuation as a basis for the assessment of import duties will be presented to business of Indianapolis and out-State points at a meeting to be held in the Chamber of Commerce Building under ( tspices of the chamber, on Friday nigh. Feb. 24, at which William E. Humphrey of Washington and W. H. Mann, general manager of Marshall Field & Cos. of Chicago, •will be the speakers. Mr. Humphrey, who is an official of the American Valuation Association, will present facts and arguments in favor of the valuation plan, while Mr. Mann, who is among those who oppose the valuation scheme, will present the other side of the question. Plans for the meeting were complete through the cooperation of Victor C. Kendall, secretary of the L. S. Ayres Company, and John B. Reynolds, general secretary of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. In a letter sent to Mr. Humphreys, Mr. Reynolds stated that the confusion of thought regarding the valuation plan” makes it desirable for the matter to be presented calmly and dispassionately by men who know what they are talking about and who can depend on the fairness of their auditors rather than on the prejudice which may be aroused.” Invitations are being sent out to the members of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, the Board of Trade, the Manufacturers’ and Merchants’ Association, and the Indiana Manufacturers’ Association urging a large attendance at the meeting, and a strong effort is being made to have business men from (HI over the State at the meeting. Both !Mr. Humphrey and Mr. Mann are authorities of national prominence on the

subject, and a joint discussion by them of this important question is expected to be of great importance to business men throughout the State. BOARD MOVES TO PURCHASE GOLDEN HILL (Continued From Page One.) tates Company several years ago gave the park department a 100-foot right-of-way for a boulevard along the canal from Thirty-Sixth to Thirty-Fourth streets. PLEASANT RUN GOLF COURSE. The new golf course, which is • being established on the Disette property, east of Irvington, was officially named Pleasand Run Golf Course by the board, after Mayor Samuel Lewis Shank had urged the adoption gif -‘LUlydale Golf Course.” The board unanimously voted the mayor’s suggestion down. Purchase of 200 steel lockers for the golf rooms being fitted up in the Disette mansion was authorized and park employes instructed to get prices on various types of porch furniture with which to fit out part of the building. The board decided to abandon payment of half the cost of park policemen’s uniforms. Mr. Bookwalter said he could not believe it is right for the city to furnish a man a job and buy the clothes that go with it, too. “If it’s right to buy uniforms for policemen,” he said, “why don’t we give me an order on my tailor for the clothes I wear out sitting in this chair? Why don’t we give Mrs. Shank an order on her dressmaker?” EMPLOYES MAY BUY UNIFORMS BY CONTRACT. The board will, however, select the weight and color of cloth that goes Into the uniforms and permit employes to buy them through the board from a contractor who submits the lowest bid in order that the clothes may cost as little as possible. Employes were given a further setback when the board decided that it no longer would authorize the housing of the private automobiles of several employes at the municipal garage. The

employes have been permitted to keep the cars in the city building because they used them in their work, it is said. Harry Miesse, secretary of the Patriotic Gardeners’ Association, was promised desk space in the park department offices for the operation of a bureau of the association this summer. Mr. Bookwalter expressed pleasure that Mr. Miesse is to direct the garden work again and declared : “The people of this community don’t know the debt of gratitude they owe Mr. Miesse for his four years’ of service in the garden movement, unremunerated, except for the pleasure of calling me over into' his own garden and showing me the largest tomatoes in Indianapolis.” Mr. Miesse said that he had not iiv tended to continue the work this summer, hut that the demands for the service which the association has given, h as arranging for assignment of vacant lots, plowing and distribution of seeds, are so great that he had been forced to come back again. Indicative of the fact that Interest in gardens did not subside with the end of the war, Mr. Miesse said that 128 of the 12!) people who had plots at the workhouse last year were the game who held them the year before while all of the sixty-eight at the Crown Hill gardens came back the second year. The board decided that for the time being it cannot heed the petition of persons in the neighborhood for the extension of Pleasant Run boulevard from Meridian street to the Bluff road because of the prohibitive cost. The citizens want the boulevard in order to stop the stream from eating away its banks and confiscating their property. To eliminate this the board directed its engineering department to work out a scheme of revetments to give temporary protection. Officials of the Indianapolis Community Chorus were Informed that the board will divide with the board of school commissioners half the cost of bringing nationally known artists to appear in ihe chorus’s three annual concerts, as lias been done in the past. Over her protest Board Member Sarah Shank was informed she would be put on the board of directors of the chorus. POACHING BY MOTOR. CRANBORNE, Eng..
