TWO TAX BILLS © ARE PROTESTED Would Put Every High School Out of Business, Claim There are two tax bills before the! legislature that if passed will just! about put every high school in the| state out of business, ording to! A. C, Berg, rural school inspector of | the state education department. | One of these would limit the school levies to 12, 14 and 16 mills} respectively, for different classes 01 high schools maintained. The other would cut the valuation basis from 100 to 50 per cent Mr. Berg has prepared figures ts show that during the last year 172 high school districts in the state, in- cluding most of those in the larger received levies of more than 16 mills and ranging as high as 44 per cent. That was for the y ending June 30, 19 For the p ur, the levies are higher than almost without exception, he This limitation of mill tax would cut the taxes materially but the pro- posel 50 percent valuation would cut the already reduced levy practically in half, which would leave about enough money to run the grades and no more, he adds. To show what present school lev ies are as compared with the 16 mill maximum Mr. Berg gave out the following figures covering five large towns of the state; for the year ending June 30, 1922: silts Amts.

The income tax law has passed the senate, the county budget bill has been advanced but the pro- gram as a whole still remains to be settled, in spite of the fact. that the tax program was the first on which real work was started in committees early in the session. Shun Industries The state enterprises program is not regarded with so much in- terest as other problems, by mem- bers. Many members avoid dis- cussion of them. Yet three big bills are to be passed or killed, and there has been areal no action on any of them yet. They are the bitl repealing the Home Building Association bond authorization) act, the mill and elevator financing program, the bill providing a defi- git tax for the Home Builders and the bill creating a board of manag+ ers for the Grand Forks project and proven for sale of the Drake mill. lome_ Building bond act was eae the senate Satuyr- day, but could not be passed be- eanse of absence of some Inde- ts. ie get ress has n mange e ba rogral exce| that the fe y the bill Refporizing ci aoigation af) banks. Nevertheless there is much in .the m so far to cause many to congratulate. the legislators, There is undeniably a new spir evident. The war and after-the- | war hysteria which affected legis- | |lators as well as busin men and flappers is pretty well gone. The} diffculties of state enterprises has brought many to realize that the! problem cannot be settled by ora- tory, nor can the state through such enterprises suddenly turn North Dakota into a new Utopia. | AH realize legislation —_ alone! won't save the farmer. new spirit of tolerance abounding. | Party lines have been drawn closer | in the senate than in the JOU |but matters which involve good, | common sense have been consider- ed in the latter body and party |lines have been broken. Particularly is there a back-fire | against so-called “damphool legis- lation” in which effort is made to legislate good morals or legislate a law abiding spirit. It is realiz- ed it can’t be done that way. There is no general sentiment..to relax the prohibition laws, and it is gen- should _be But over- erally accepted they strengthened if they can be. there is a back-fire aganst riding many of the long- ed principles of personal The senate very promptly stepped on house bill No. 23, a bill which would have permitted officials to hail anyone into court and compel testimony about anything before an arrest had been made. The possibilities for abuse of the or- dinary rights of any citizen was sensed in the senate. It was somewhat the same sen- timent against such interference which caused the senate to kill house bill No. 1, which wou'd have prohibited the farmer from mort- gaging more than two-thirds of his crop except in c Here, too, was a majority belief that the -|farmer does not need a guardian as badly as some people believe he does, and that the legislature can’t make him prosperous by ex- empting him from the claims of creditors. Repeal Seed Law A special session of the legi ture was called to enact laws per- mitting counties to bond to buy seed and feed, and the opposition to repeal of these laws was very weak in the house. There were no party lines on On the one hand there was a npartisan farmer- legislator declaring that it wasn’t ASPIRIN Say “Bayer” and Insist! There is a! s | the business of the county to make a path of roses for an itinerant farmer who got his seend and feed and if he got a crop or did not, skip out and let-the farmers who stayed to fight the battle, pay the freight. On the other there was an Independent re-iterating an oft- expressed view against such pa- ternalism except in cases of emer-} gency. The application of a common view to many matters of islation, the killing of pater- nalistie or restrictive measures, has led many to congratulate the legislature upon the work it has done to date. There is a new spirit abroad in the state, as evidenced by the action taken on such mea- sures. It forebodes good, and a recurrence to the state of mind held by solid citizens before the war and political vagaries upset North Dakota and other states. There is not much likelihood of far-reaching effect of the legisla- ture’s action at this session, ex- cept through the tax revision or the action upon the road program. There was none proposed, and the legislators by their actions declare their belief that the conditions they want so badly to cure cannot. be cured through their action. Unconcicusly, perhaps, most. on the 150 odd members of the sessio: are striving toward that indefinite something defined by President Harding as “normalcy.” The political. vantage in this session may lie on either side, but nevertheless the session is moving toward the accomplishment of some constructive work, if not spectacular.
