WOLCOTT SUGGESTS TAX LAW EXCHANGE

State Commissioner Says Present Law Is Most Ineffective.

LAPP CITES PROBLEMS

BLOO.MINGTON, Ind., Feb. 6. Six amendments to the present taxation laws of Indiana were suggested today by Eben H. Wolcott, state tax commissioner, in an address before the tax conference, at Indiana University. The amendments' are: 1. A classification tax whereby certain kinds of intangible property are assessed at a low fixed rate. 2. The exemption of money, either on hand or deposited in banks or trust c-ompaiies, which docs not draw Interest. 3. The exemption of household furniture and -personal effects to the value of a. tfxed sum, say $500 or $1,000. 4. The power of the State Tax Commissioners to equalize assessments of personal property by classes. 5. The appointment of county assessors upon Civil Service examination to be under the direct control of the State Board of Tax Commissioners. ; i. The ba'sis of taxation of all property to its true cash value with a limit to the rate of assessment. "The farcial assessment of household goods in Indiana," said Commissioner Wolcott, "is such as readily to prove that the law as it stands at present is most ineffective. The average value of household furniture in the various ounties in Indiana as reported to the State Tax Commissioners last year was $43.50, the highest shown being in Tippecanoe county with an average of $102 and the lowest being Starke county with an average assessment of $19. Home Builders. "While I do not feel that there should be too large a value of exemption, I do feel that every encouragement should be given to the home builders of our state, to those whose sole possessions consist largely of their little house furnishings and that we can afford to be generous when valuing this most essential and necessary part of our domestic life." Citing the many perplexing1 problems brought up at the conference, John A. Lapp, state legislative librarian, suggested that a special investigation commission representing all classes of people and interests should be appointed to formulate an adequate and fair system of taxation for Indiana. Professor William A. Rawles delivered a very valuable and suggestive illustrated lecture on "Classification of Land for Purposes of Taxation." He in common with other speakers at the conference insisted that the constitution of Indiana stood in the way of proper legislation and should be changed by a constitutional convention. Professor Rawles praised the Somers system of taxation in use in Cleveland.

SALTS IF BACKACHY AND KIDNEYS HURT

Drink lots of water and stop eating meat for a while if your Bladder troubles you.

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region It generally means you have been eating too much meat, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort t6 filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels: removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a good, reliable physician, at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. .Tad .Salts js a life saver for regular meat eaters! It is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful, effervescent Hthia-water drink.

BY DR. EDGAR L. WILLIAMS. The Federation Council of the Churches ot Indiana, representing thirteen of the largest and most Influential denominations of the state, is pressing forward a most aggressive movement along the evangelistic and county federation lines.

Cortland Van Camp. Others interested in the work of this committee are T. C. Day and John Holliday. So rapidly has this movement grown and so strongly has its worth and importance laid hold of the leading church men of the federation, that a demand has arisen for the services of a strong and capable man to serve as secretary of the work, and to engage In organizing and supervising the movement in the counties of the state where evangelistic campaigns are being held. Begins Work Here. "I began work officially on Feb. 1. It will be my duty to direct the work of county evangelistic campaigns, and to follow such campaigns with the organization of County Federation of Churches. Such federation is being perfected this week in Wayne County, following the Rev. Honeywell's meetings in this city. The pastors and representative laymen of all the churches of the county have held a meeting in Richmond recently, at which time plans were perfected for the co-ordination and co-operation of all the churches in the county for the building up of the church and the Sunday schools and to work out a policy of religious actvity and law enforcement, which will be ample to meet the needs of the county. It is felt that this movement for County Federation of churches promises much for the religious life of the state. So far put little study has been

The People are Talking About the Church

"It is easier now to spot the church members in Richmond for they are talking Church." So local business men are saying-. The work of the Tabernacle has made the Church a common topic of talk. The Public is interested because the Church is "ON ITS JOB." If people ceased to think about the Church, and to talk about her if the Church did not figure frequently in the conversation of ordinary folk then the clay for closing church doors would be near. The Church doors of our city were never opened wider.

When a person is freezing, indifference to life is a sign of approaching death. Lack of interest in religion is an ominous symptom. Don't miss the special opportunity to join the Church at once and help her Mission and her Master. "Then they that feared the Lord Spake often one to another ; and the Lord Hearkened and heard." And whenever you think of the Church, let it be always in terms of invitation. The Church Wants and Welcomes Everybody. Go to Church Thursday Evening at 7:30 and the Sunday services, and Prove It.

IN CASE OF ILLNESS, DEATH OR OTHER TROUBLE, ANY MINISTER WILL BE GLAD TO HELP North Tenth and A Streets. Thomas J. Graham, Pastor.
