Tt developed, however, that there is no macadam base on the street and one must be laid before the amiesite can be placed. This will increasgthe cost of the job. by several thousands of dollars. Alderman GHl asserts that, in his opinion the. incident shows “a lack of proper investigation on the part of the board.” “ @ Adderman Gill also objects to the procedure followed by the board in hiring a contractor without submit- ting specifications to contractors and allowing them to bid, and he also ob- jects to givipgg work to out of town concerns when thére aré numerous companies i3 town that could handle the job. The mayor told the second wardér that the actien of the council in over- riding his velo on Grove Hill had been interpreted by him as an order that be should keep his hands off, and he intends to do so.

Among| Constantinople | HILFERDING FAVORS BRUTAL TAX POLICY ) Y ] v New German Minister of Finance Launches Attack on Rich Berlin, Aug. 24.—Dr. Rudolf Hllfcr-J ding, the first socialist to hold the fed- eral position of minister of finance, has informed the Reichstag budget committee that he proposed to in- augurate an ear of “brutal and ruth- less taxation policies.” The banks and imdustrialists, said Dr. Hilferding, already had received his. warning, and he was particularly desirous to inform the public at large of his intention. It was his opinion that dictatorial measures within con- stitutional limits would prove the only means of saving the country in the present situation. The new minister's first official ut- terance was a straightforward state- ment of Germany’s internal financial chaos, which had culminated in the announcement of the government's emergency measures for the requisi- tioning of foreign currencics and pro- viding pebitentiary sentences for per- sons committing perjury in connection with declarations demanded by the government of holders of foreign ex- change. Dr. Hilferding startled the Reich- stag members by an announcement that the central government was now regularly called upen to come to the financial aid of the federated states, which no longer were able to meet the payrolls of their own administrations. The federal government, he declared, was obliged to disburse strike sub- sidies to private printing plants which were engaged in printing the Reich- stag's currency. Dr. Hilferding declared the finan- clal and political situation facing the new German government must be re- garded as well nigh desperate. He criticized the Reichsbank for attempting to support the | falling mark with insufficient means, and complained that private firms were issuing emergency currency without the consent of the Reichsbank. The payments in execcution of the peace treaty increased from 45,000, 000,000 marks in January to four trillion marks in July, Dr. Hilferding asserted, and these would be consid- erably increased in the present month, The deficit in the operation of the state railways alone, he added, amounted to 450,000,000,000 marks. He concluded by declaring it im- possible to balance the budget, even with the proposed heavy increase in taxation. RUSSIA CLAIMS WRANGLL IS. By The Assoclated Press Moscow, Aug. 24.-—Foreign Minis- ter Tchitcherin has sent a note to the government protesting against sing of the British flag on Wrangell Island by Vilhjalmur Stef- ansson the explorer. Wrangel was incorporated into Rus- sia's territol in the years 1821-24, the nofe says In 1910 Russia built lighthouses on the island and under- took other works there, and in 1915 formally notified the allied and necu- tral governments that Wrangell, to- gether with the other islands and ter- | ritories along the coast of Siberia, | constituted integral parts of Russian| territory. As during the entire intervening | period no government has questioned | Russia’s claim to the island, says, the soviet government regards| the raising of the British flag there| as a violation of Russia's sovereign rights.
