BOARD HEARING G01TI1ED

(Special to Thb Times.) CROWN POINT, IND., June 28. The county bqard of review today continued their examination of the representatives of the industrial plants, beginning their session at 1 o'clock. The following rlants were represented: Interstate Iron and Steel Co.. Hubbard Steel Foundries, Indiana Box Co., O. F. Jordan Co.. Northern Indiana Gas Rnd Electric Co., Graver Tank Co., and Goldsmith retlnning Co. Several others will be before the board tomorrow. Among them tne inland Steel Co., the Locomotive Superheater Co. and the Marks Manufacturing Co. While there were several of the planv represntatives that laid their cards all on the table freely and frankly, yet it seemed to be the general opinioh of board members and chamber of commerce representatives that from a general view point the board was not accomplishing what it expected to accomplish, namely the arrival with any degree of accuracy at the total valuation of personal property and improvements on March 1, 1917. Some of the best statements were given by the Standard Forgings Co.. tho O. F. Jordan Co.. the Northern Indiana Gas and Electric Co., the Graver Tank Co., and the Goldsmith Detlnnlng Co. The attitude of representatives of these plants was well expressed by Mr. Lindmueller of the Detlnnlng Co.. who said that he was willing that the board should know the exact valuations in his plant; that he was willing to stand for a horizontal increase in the assessments providing all of the plants were given the same treatment, the Increase to be based upon statements of exact value submitted by all the industries. With tut few exceptions it was admitted that the total valuations on the plants as a whole was too low and that they were not paying their Just proportion of the iaxei. The board wi.l continue In session until Tuesday of next week. Meanwhile they will figure out as best they can the increase on each individual corporation.

In accordance with his progressive policy of presenting "the biggest and best" in motion pictures, the manager of DeLuxe theatre announces the engagement of the second Douglas Fah -banks pictures, released by Artcraft, "Wild and Wooly." The story has to do with a city youth whose wild fancies of the great west eventually get the better of him. Clad in immaculate cowboy attire such as one might wear at a masque ball, he travels to the land of his dreams only to find that his outfit is as unique as It appeared to habitants of New York's Fifth avenue on the morning he set out on his journey.

girls. An actor in the show tried to!
