Special Dispatch to The Star. BERRYVILLE, Va., April 11.—One of the largest crowds that has ever gathered in the courthouse in Berry- ville was that of the tax-payers from all over the county, who came to attend the joint meeting of the coun- ty school board and the board of supervisors to come to some agree- ment as to how the ten-cent increase on the school levy, which the school board was asking, to take care of a $25.000 loan, should be raised. The same cry of hard times was heard on all sides as a protest against raising the taxes. Report of Finances. Leslie Kline, who is superintendent of schools for Clarke and Frederick counties, read his financial report for the year in which was shown that there were 2,016 children in Clarke county attending the public schools and the per capita rate for these children's schooling was $18 a year. The total expenses last year the whole county amounted to $50,382.60, including repairs, and owing to the crowded_conditions of the Berryville High School, which had necessitated for the last six years renting outside rooms, which rooms are no longer available, they were now obliged to build a new school bullding and the | legislature had authorized the board | to borrow $25,000. The school board reported that they had just bought five acres of land of the Rosemont estate, owned by Dr. William Smith Cox, postmaster of Alexandria, in the heart of the residentlal section of Berryville for $4,500. Agreement Reached. The only suggestion for raising this ten-cent levy was made by the county treasurer, W. A. Bradford, who sald that as’ the school tax was sixty cents, twenty-five cents for teachers salaries and thirty-five cents for building, he would suggest that they reduce the teacher’s tax. There was violent protest to this proposal, | but when the board of supervisors made their decision it was found that they had taken five cents from the teachers tax and five cents from the road tax, this raising the ten-cent levy asked for without increasing the taxes. —_— MAY STILL BE SEARCHING ~ FOR RUSSIAN JEWELS Federal Agents’ Trip Revives Rumors That Hot Trail Has Been Picked Up.

C. and Maryland Labor Delegates. Special Dispateh to The Star. CUMBERLAND, Md., April 11.—The convention of the Maryland state and District of Columbia IFederation of Labor revived the full crew law fight today when it passed @ resolution of J. H. Elliott, delegate of the Brother- | hood of Railway trainmen, favoring a law in Maryland to compel the use of additional trainmen on all trains of forty cars or more. The full crew law was repealed by the last Mary- land legislature. A resolution was adopted calling _for the appointment of an inspector of all low-pressure heating plants in Wash- ington. If the District Commissioners have no such power of appointment Congress would be asked to give it to them, according to the resolution. Mine Region Inapected. The delegates this afternoon made « tour of the Georges Creek mining region, where a strike has been in progress for over a year. They were piloted by delegates from the mining region locals connected with the United Mine Workers of America and by a number of striking miners. Yesterday Miss Elizabeth Gllman of Baltimore, treasurer of the miners' relie? fund, who on Monday address- ed the convention, visited all points of the mining reglon to ascertain conditions on which she will make an officlal “teport later.

McAdoo Urged for Preaident. The convention vesterday after- noon heard an address of over an hour by James J. Forrester, national legislative counsel, Associated Rail- road Organizations, who proposed William G. McAdoo as the next Presi- dent of the United States. Mr. For- | rester spoke along _non-partisan lines, declaring that If one party should turn McAdoo down, he would be with the party that sponsored him. The sentiment of the convention was not_outwardly manifest in the matter, for while a number applaud- ed the name of Mr. McAdoo, a larger number made no demonstration. Mr. Forrester declared he did not want a third or labor party, but wanted labor as a unit on the mon- | partisan policy of the American Fed- | eration, and predicted there could be | no doubt of the result. There is some | third-party _sentiment among the delegates, and C. Kemper of the sign painters’ union, Baltimore, announced, following the speech of Mr. Forrester. that he had a resolution relative to 4 | third party, but there is every rea-| son to beliéve it will be voted down. “0.

Henry F. Broening. the legislative agent of the federation, submitted his report in which he commended the members of the Maryland legis- lature from Allegany county for the stand they took gin behalf of labor. The work of State Senator David A. Robb was especially commended. U. S. RELIEF WORKER DIES Death of Mrs. Crawford Fourth in Near East Relief. By the Associated Press.
