HEAD OF FARM * BUREAU SEEKS I MORE BENEFIT f Tax Valuation Cut Is Good, i But Not Enough, View of W. H. Settle. r Farmers of Indiana were not |iven the reduction to which they sere entitled in the $203,373,095 valuation cut of last Saturday by the State board of tax commissioners, but a step has been taken in the jfight direction. This was the statement today of (William H. Settle, president of the farm bureau. It marks an important step iorAfeard in the bureau’s campaign for snore equal distribution of the tax burden and economies in government, he asserted. Sees Greater Saving “While it appears that the reduction ordered will mean a saving in the farmers’ 1928 tax bill of between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000, other parts of the program, if it is accorded full co-operation in the local committies, will swell the savings to a much greater sum,” he continued. “It will be remembered that the Lindley-Shake Johnson tax bill, fcinder which the reductions were ordered and which was sponsored by the Farm Bureau, was not the only important piece of legislation urged by the Farm Bureau and enacted by the legislature. . > “House Bill No. 174, extending the State budget system back into the counties is of equal importance in keeping down local expenditures if the taxpayers will make full use of it. “To further this, the Farm Bureau is planning a statewide campaign for economical and wise use of the public funds. Promise in Future “However, the terms of the Lind-ley-E’:ake Johnson act promise even more in the way of reduced farm taxation in the future than they do for this year. “Under the bill the State tax board could not increase valuations, however desirable that might be, but in 1928, when a full reappraisment of all property is provided for, the tax board will have this opportunity and in addition will appraise real estate on the basis of its earning power. “With the proper scrutiny of local budgets by local taxpayers and full consideration of the provisions of the new tax law by the State tax board, farmers of Indiana may look forward hopefully to important reMOTION PICTURES

Nice Pussy He’s Such a Good Cat, Says Owner; Cops’ Chorus Is Unprintable.

Bu United Press Four Oak Park policemen were nursing feline scratches today and four policemen’s wives were mending tom uniforms, but Thomas, the cat the vacationist forgot to “put out,” enjoyed the best of care. “I forgot about my cat when I went away,” a telegram received by police from Robert Regan read. “He’s been alone without food in the house for three days. Please rescue him.” Sergeant William Koerber went to the Regan home and pried open a window. The cat jumped out, paused to claw its benefactor, and disappeared. Three other patrolmen called, were clawed, and finally located the cat in some shrubbery and captured it after more scratching. Four disheveled, bleeding cops dragged the cat to the station. There they found a second telegram, reading: “Please take care of Thomas until I return. He’s a good cat.” The telegraph company refused to transmit the policemen’s answer. lief from the tax burdens that they are hearing, although complete relief cannot be expected until some new method of raising taxes, preferably the income tax, is adopted,” he concluded.

FAIR PLAY FOR ALL TAXPAYERS , BEING SOUGHT Chamber of Commerce Group Hopes to Help •Small Fry’ Get Refund. Fair play for taxpayers, big and little, in refunding taxes illegally paid in 1920, 1921 and 1922, is being sought by the special Chamber of Commerce budgqt committee, William H. Book, civic affairs secretary, announces. The committee will meet soon to find a way to give the little taxpayer equal opportunity with big taxpayers in obtaining the refund, Book said. Might Get Clerks Harry Dunn, county auditor, notified Book that statements of the amount due each taxpayer can be prepared by employing two additional clerks. At present taxpayers are forced to search the records to determine the amount of refund due them. Larger taxpayers are employing agents for this vtork while smaller taxpayers, unfamiliar with the auditor’s books and unwilling or unable tc employ special agents on a percentage basis, will not go to the trouble to collect it, officials said. Within the Law \ While Clinton H. Givan, county attorney, has held that no refund can be made except where taxpay-

I was on a visit to my sister in Utica, Michigan, and she had taken Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Her husband got me a bottle and I took it and felt so much better that I got a second one. Now, whenever I feel run-down I take the Vegetable Compound and soon feel all right again. I have had three little girls in the last six years and do all my housework, sewing, washing, and ironing. My time is pretty well taken up, but I will answer any letters I receive.”— Mbs. Feans Dug doee, Box 239, Lancaster, Ohio.

I would have to stop work and lie down sometimes all the afternoon. I felt as if I did not care whether anything was done or not. I got tired out so easily. One day I found a little book on my porch and that night I showed it to my husband and he went down town and got me a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. The medicine has helped me so much that I was soon able to do my work, and when my baby was born, my nurse, Mrs. Forbes, said it was the easiest birth she had ever attended. I will be more than pleased If I am helping someone else by giving my testimonial.” — Mbs. Edwabd Pebsing, 614 Sturgis Ave., Sturgig, Michigan.

KING BORIS IS ON ORjDE HUNT Aids Out Rounding Up Eligible Maidens. By United Press VIENNA, July 27—King Boris 111. of Bulgaria, Europe's bachelor king, has gone to Sofia on another bride htfnt. With conspicuous lack of success, Boris in his search for a queen has covered as much territory as this season’s trans-Atlantic fliers. This time he is making a sort of matrimonial grand tour, his itinerary including Switzerland, France, Sweden, Italy, Austria, Hungary and Czecho-Slovakia. It is rumored in diplomatic circles that there is to be a royal round-up in Switzerland next month at which every effort will be made by members of other royal families to find a candidate for the vacant throne. The rumors arise from the fact that at the time Boris is due to be in Switzerland next month Dowager Queen Christina of Spain and the King and Queen of Belgium will be there. Interest was aroused by the coincidence that the intended journeys of all the royalties were announced on the same day from their respective capitals. More than 150,000 people in Wales do not speak English.

'NO JUDGE AVAILABLE ! Emergency Insanity Case Must Wait Until Fall. Circuit and superior judges today were criticised by Asa H. Boulden, attorney, 408 City Trust Company Bldg.,- for failure to arrange for judges pro tem. to sit during the August court vacation. Boulden said he sought a court in which he could file an emergency petition for an insanity Inquest, but was informed by County Clerk George Hutsell that the petition would not be acted on at once. "There is no court you can get ac-. tion in before September and the 1927 law places the authority to order inquests solely in the hands of the Circuit and Superior Courts,” said Boulden. “They should at least arrange for one judge to sit in emergency cases.
