i SATURDAY, JANUARY 5, 1924 * that o COMMISSIONS — ON TAXES TO BE APPOINTED. Governor to Name Them in) Different Parts of State to Seek Reductiqn THEN A_ STATE BODY; Ultimate Result Proposed Is| Recommendation to the Next Legislature ——s x commissions to serve will be named | | | various | | sections of the ate by Governor R. A. Nestos to con sider means of reducing the tax | burden, and after these commisgions have completed their work a smaller commission made from members of the commissions wiJl be asked to present recommendations for the} next legislature, the Governor said today. Asked concerning his attitude on the request made by Minot business men for the appointment of a state- | wide commission to study the tax! problem, in addition to the school | finance commission authorized by | the legislature, Governor Nestos said | he had reached his decision | er conferring with numerous people in Minot, Grand Forks, Fargo and from the small towns and | country between them, in regard to the problem | Largely Local Problem “Tam ud to find that there so keen an ‘interest in this sub. everywhere and a disposition to | study this problem in a practical | way. In the past there was too | much of a disposition to ery ‘high | taxes’ but to refuse to listen to tne | suggestion of reduction in expenses either in the township, the school district, the village, the city, or the county But, in the last year the great majority of the people have discovered that after all, the taxes for state purposes take but a sm part of each dollar, of taxes paid and that more than four-fifths of all the taxes are used for paying the expenses of the local and county | governments and of the schools in the community where each taxpayer lives. They are also learning that there is only one way of reducing taxes and that is by spending less money, and that unless the papple of a partic community are will- ing to sacrifice some of the things } for which they are paying their tax moneys today that there is no hope Of a substantial tax reduction and that. smaller taxes can come only by making the expenses of running the townships, the school districts, the villages, the cities, and the counties jess thon they are today. Of course, te state must also do its share we tried. to do last winter by lessen ed appro) tions and the vote of appropriation bills. Seeking Members. “In talking with these people, 1 have come to the conclusion,” said Governor Nestos, “that on account of the fact that this is so largely 2 “local problem and because of the fur- ther fact that a state commission to give to these problems the study re- quired .would involve such an ex- penditure of time and money that few men could afford to serve on such a commission that I have concluded that since this is 80 per cent a local | problem anyway thae instead of ap- pointing one commission now, I am going to encourage the creation of about six commissions in different parts of the state who can then de- vote time and study to this problem during the winter and spring with- out any great money outlay for ex- penses, analyzing with care the lo- cal expenses, the influence of limi- | tation of levies, and the possibilities | of cutting down government ex penses. And then when these six commissions have completed their labors and reported, select a smaller commission from among those who have reserved on these six commis. sions and ask-tltem during the fall months to prepare a report which shall ‘sum up.in it the best conclu- | sions of the six reports and submit | this for the consideration of the next | legislative assembly. This, I feel, { would give us the maximum of in- | vestigation, careful study, practical suggestions, and helpful remedies, at the least possible expense to those who were helping to work out this problem for the state of SNorth Da- kota. “I ani busy now trying to secure | the names of men and women in the various parts of the. state who un- derstand taxation, realize the import- | ance of the local problems and are | willing to give the time and thought | to the task of making such sugges- | tions to the next legislative body, as | may be of value in formulating ay program of sane economy for the; vavious taxing districts af this state, | and give the taxpayers of our state some real relief.” | —— | Too Late To Classify | FOR RENT—Two nice warm fur- | \ nished rooms for light housekeep- ing, alsoa sleeping room in modern house.
