In answer, I will state that I have taken figures of record in the auditor’s office, which show a total appropriation of the 1925 legislative assembly, from the general furid, to be 4.58 and not $7,146,516.34 as stated in that article. This is about $5,000 greater than the appro- priations from the general fund of the 1923 legislative assembly. It is true, as stated by the tax commis- sioner, that the general fund levy of 1925 is $2,397,533.00, but he evident- ly overlooked ‘the usual five per cent deduction which is always figured as uncollectible and which I deducted in my figures of the 1923, 1924 and 1925 lev: Deducting the usual five per nt leaves the 1925 collectible levy at $2,277,720.00. Taking this levy and adding to the $1,337,000.00 calculated Scollections from special taxes and fees, we have a.total of $3,614,720. One’ half of the biennial appropri: tion, which must be provided for in levy, is $3.643.667.29. This leaves a shan of $28,947.29 in the 1925 levy as already stated in my tax statement. Must Get Money Somewhere “I believe it is generally under- stood by everybody that the only way taxes can be reduced is to reduce ex- penditures. We can’t have a larger expenditure for 1925 and 1926 than im 1923 and 1924 and at the same time reduce taxes. If the general proper- ty taxes are lowered, we must collect more income taxes or some other kind of taxes, or be short in our general fand. . “The article also states that un- hecessary surpluses are created at hthe expense of the taxpayer. Our records do not show any unnecessary surpluses, as our general fund has been overdrawn all the way from $25,000 to $285,000 most of the time since’ October 1 to March 15, 1926, It would be interesting to know if Mr. Thoresen classes the hail fund sur- 000,000.00 of which cash in the bank an i idle for the next eight months, as unnecessary sur- pluses at the expense of the taxpay- er.
