Predict Record Enrollment For Garfield Junior High Garfield Junior high school will have not less than 720 students enrolled for active work when the new term opens, next -Monday, according to figures quoted Monday. This will be the largest number ever enrolled In the school. Even though there will be about 130 students leaving the school for the senior high school, it is estimated that about 180 will enter the school from the graded schools of the city. LIBRARY CIRCULATION INCREASE OVER 2,000 In checking up the circulation of the city library for the month of De

cember, Mrs. Bernhardt has noted that during the last three years an increase has been shown of about 2,000 each year. For December, 1918, in the adult department there were, 4,588 books taken out, in the junior department, 1,501, making a total of 6,089; in December, 1919, for the adult . department. 6975, in the junior department, 1.916, making a total of 8,891; in December, 1920 for the adult department. 8,523. for the junior department, 2,244, making a total of 10,767. The relation of fictions and the other books of the library, is 5 to 2 in the adult department, and 2 to 1 in the junior department. All the months have shown an increase, but not so large a record as the month of December. This goes to show that the people of Richmond are using the library more than they used to.

REVIVAL PROGRESSES AT FIRST M. E, CHURCH With every seat occupied from the first floor to the gallery, services at the First Methodist church Sunday ended the first week of the revival with a rousing meeting. Rev. R. W.

Persons stationed in the gallery and Sunday school room would sing a verse of a song with the congregation joining on the chorus. Prof. J. E. Maddy and Harold Clements played an instrumental duet.

brought about the economic turmoil

that confronts this country today. He states that one of the principal causes for our present discomfiture Is the existing taxing system. Must Retrace Steps. "It would seem apparent that we cannot hope for a return to normal conditions of trade, industry, finance and prices until, among other things (foremost among which is reduction in government expenditures), we retrace the steps rashly taken partly under the impulse of war conditions and partly under the inspiration of class

animosity and sectional bias, in the

that what we propose is not only economically sound and practically wise, but that it is in accord with modern conceptions of social decency and fairness."

The U. B. Hustlers will meet with I matter of taxation," states Kahn. He

registers vigorous protest against "extreme surtaxes and an uncouth excess profits tax." There are indications, however, that congress now realizes the important part it must play in bringing about a return to normal conditions. Every appropriation bill which has been reported to the house in recent weeks has been ruthlessly cut and slashed and the ways and means committee is now actively engaged in the consideration of taxing reforms. Offers Program. Kahn's booklet is not confined to a criticism of taxing evils. In fact he offers a program for tax reforms which

is receiving most respectful attention. Business men in Richmond, Ind., and other cities of the Sixth Indiana district have lately shown great interest in the proposed sales tax. Kahn advocates a "carefully designed gross sales or turn-over tax, limited to commodities, but only at a rate which would be an almost nominal one, say, one-third of one per cent (exempting, possibly, the sales of their products, including live stock by farmers)." Estimated Sales Tax. Kahn estimates "that at a rate of one-third of one per cent a gross sales or turn-over tax on commodities ought to bring in somewhere between $550,I'OO.OOO and $650,000,000 for say, the next 12 months period." He admits that this would not be enough to make up for the yield from the excess profits tax and from "other taxes that ought to be revised or abolished." He says that the estimated yield from the sales tax he proposes is a larger sum than the excess profits tax is estimated, by the treasury experts, to yield for the same period. Urges Conference. Kahn suggests that congress "invite a number of duly qualified men of different callings and ainiiatioDs, including representatives of 'business, agriculture, labor and the professions, to sit in continuous session, thresh out conflicting views and evolve a comprehensive scheme (taxing system) in cooperation, of course, with the subject to the congressional committees in chafge." He expresses the belief that collaboration in some such way would bo "most effectively conducive toward er tablishing a truly sound policy and well-balanced system of taxation." Offers Advice. The New York financier offers tlii. p.dvice to American business men' "That the business community go slov in sponsoring any methods of taxation which may give valid ground for tlv impression that, in their contribution to the thought on tax revision, thr representatives of business are unduly concerned with conserving their owJnterests. and aiming to curtail th??r proper share of the fiscal burden which
