PROGRESSIVE LEADERS To MEET
NEW YORK, July 25.—~Progressive
Party leaders here said today that in
preparation for the Progressive na-
tional meeting in Chicago, on Aug. 5.
a conference of leaders from all parts
of the. country would be held in an
eastern city some day this week. The
date and place have not been definite-
Tyselected, , '
:Bainbrldge Colby, who led the fac-
tion opposed to a Progressive endorse-
ment of Mr. Hughes’ nomination at
Syracuse, said that he w0uld attend
the Chicago meeting and that prior to
that affair the New York state Progres-
sive leaders of the antl-Perkins' mo
tion would consult with leaders from
other states who held similar views.
It was announced today that the
Progressive leaders who failed to put
through thep rogram. for endofiement
of the Republican candidate at the
Syracuse Conference expected to dis-
tribute a petition endorsing Mr.
Hughes' candidacynmong the enrolled
Progressives throughout New York
state. '-
spproved and instructed _
omcials to draw up a schedule of dis-
tribution, which we present herewith.
Secretary Daniels has from the first
opposed the raising of money for a
battleship by public subscription and
the Tribune has satisfied itself that
the hill introduced into the House of
Representatives by Congressman
William S_ Bennet. directing him to
receive the fund, cannot be forced
through the Naval Committee under
this administration. ,
This destroys all hope of presenting
the government with any kind of a
quhip or of turning over the fund
to it for naval construction purposes.
There is no red tape connected with
the presentation of a prize, however.
All that is needed is the consent or
the Secretary of the Navy and the
letter below shows that to have been
obtained.
Following is the letter from, the‘
Secretary of the Navy suggesting a‘
plan for the distribution of funds:
Navy Department, Washington, -
. July 11, title
M dear Mr, Keohan:
{ieferring to your letter of ‘dune 29,
1916, in regard to the Marjoryter.
rett Battleship Fund: , _
it is understood that this fund Will
amount to approximately $1,500.90 per
annum. and it is considered adi'isable
that this fund be awarded annually
to—
tl) The crew of the turret
making the highest final
merit at the short range
practice
The crew of the broad-
side gun mounted on but-
tleship, destroyer cruiser,
or gunboat making the
highest final merit at the
short range battle prac-
tice ...................
The crew of the submar-
ine making the highest
final merit with torpedoes
for the year ........... $400.00
This will give each winning crew
approximately $12.00 per man.
in case the fund amounts to an-
other sum. it is suggested that pro-
portions be approximately the same
as given above.
The award will be made by the
final records and determined by the
Director of Gunnery Exercises and
Engineering Competition, and _the
prizes will be issued with appropriate
ceremony on board ship by the con»
manding officers. ,
Sincerely yours.

lines of the present unequal assess-
ment of property. "For instance," he
went on, "i own a lot on Highland
avenue. My rate of taxation is no a
front foot, while the lot on either site
of me is taxed from 86 to 88 a foot.
The only way that i can see of pre-
venting this iniustiee. is to have a
permanent assessor, who would make
personal visits to each piece of prop.
erty and thus fix its valuation at a
fair rate."
Harry S. Bryan said that he was of
the same opinion as Mr. Stevens, be-
lieving that personal visitanbn would
remove many of the evils of the pres-
ent system of valuation.
4E. H. Every stated that Rowayton
was not getting the
that she should be given. and that
the roads in Rowayton were in a dis-
graceful condition. He went on by
saying that the high rate of taxation
should entitle them to more improve-
mezig and that they would have to be
given them. '
A. B, Cleverley thought Rowayton
was suffering from its share of public
improvements, and.that the taxpayers
had a right to expect better things
from the city authorities. He favored
some of the suggestions of the other
speakers. .
William F. Jennings asked several
questions as to What other cities wer-
doing along the lines of assessing
property, and believed the system in
Norwalk could be improved. Regular
assessors would be a good thing. and
more permanent improvements in
Rowayton should be considered at
once.
Adjournment was taken for two
weeks from last night, at which time
the residents of Winnlpauk will be
given an opportunity to express their
views.
