RESTING

MEETING ANTICIPATED

The general monthly meeting of the East Chicago chamber of commerce, held tonight at St. Alban's parish house, corner of Fir and 137th streets, Indiana Harbor, promises some startlingdevelopments in regard to the financial condition of the city and the cause therefor. City Treasurer W. O. Harmon, as a citizen of the city fearless in his denunciation of injustice wherever he finds it and absolutely untrammelled by any political or commercial or Industrial influence intends to lay bare gome facts that hitherto have never been searched out and placed in cold figures before the people. According to Mr. Harmon, and he is backed in his opinions by many of the most Intelligent and thoughtful men of the city, the key to the utter lack of development in many municipal enterprises and to the constant deficit in th city's funds is the absurdly low valuations that are placed on the large interests and the correspondingly high taxes that the little fellow is compelled to pay in order that th city may even exist. There will be given tonight a complete resume of the situation, including the valuations placed upon each of the manufacturing plants, the total taxable valuation of the oity and an analysis of the City's expenditures, her needs and her present day handicaps. The appeal will be made for an in

creased total taxable valuation or thi ,-r,n.n v in the city and for a more

equitable distribution of that valuation that suitable and necessary improvements may be made in parks and playgrounds, in housing the rapidly inschool population, and in re-

lievingjChe city from financial em-' barr assist. ! Thrr jill be a large attendance. All busineea and professional men and ; others interested in this question are. invited to be present. Pinner will be

served at 6 o'clock.
