RULES POWER FRNS “WUST PAY NEW TAX ‘Attorney General Holds 12-Per- Cent Levy Is Effective tf Siamese twins, probably the first i wl ever born in North Dakota, were de- livered dead about 8 o’clock Monday evening at a local hospital. Unlike the original Siamese twins, who were joined by a thick fleshy ligament from the lower end of the breast bones and not facing each other, the twin boys born here were joined at the abdomen, facing each other. Like the original twins, each ap- peared to have most of the vital limbs and organs. The children had two breasts, two heads, two sets of legs and arms, two backbones, and apparently two digestive systems. Doctors planned a post-mortem for further examination of the bodies. Though the delivery was difficult, the doctor said, an operation on the mother was not necessary. The moth- er was in good condition Tuesday. She had given birth on several pre- vious occasions. For Siamese twins to live is not unusual, several sets now being alive. The original Siamese twins died in 1874 at the age of 60 years. In the original twins, examination showed New Books Purchased By Public Library About two dozen volumes of new fiction and non-fiction recently have been placed on the shelves of the Bis- marck public library. The group in- cludes several mystery and adventure stories as well as the first volume of Trotsky’s “History of the Russian eee nee **# @ * The 12-per-cent gross earnings tax on power companies by the last legislature must be paid on 1933 earnings, according to a ruling by P. ©. Sathre, assistant state attor- ney general. Sathre, in an opinion to J. J. ‘Weeks, state tax commissioner, said that although the tax commissioner and board of equalization cannot levy an assessment under the new law un- til April, 1934, they nevertheless will levy a tax on the power companies for 1933, based on gross earnings for that year. The taxes, however, will not become due until July 1, 1934, and will become delinquent August 1, whereas under the old law, the tax- e8 were due Dec. 31 of the preceding year and became delinquent the fol- Jowing March 1. “There will be no period during which the power companies escape taxation,” Sathre said, “but the re- sult is that the due date for the payment of their taxes is extended for a period of six months. In other words, the taxes levied for the year 1933 do not become due until July 1, 1934, and delinquent August 1, 1934.” Sathre pointed out the power com- panies have been assessed for the year 1932 and the taxes paid by March 1 of this year. The next as- sessment therefore will be for 1933. The act provides that power com- panies doing business in the state must pay a tax on gross receipts from operations in the state. Each power company must, on or before March 1 of each year, make a return to the tax commissioner, showing its gross receipts in the state ‘during the preceding calendar year. ‘The board of equalization is to meet on or before the fourth Monday in April to assess and levy the tax.

There are one or two cases on record in which | such a ligament has been cut at birth, one, at least, of the twins surviving. These developments are deviations, not from the usual kind of twin gest- ation, but from a certain rarer phy- stological type of dual development, according to the Encyclopedia Bri- tannica. “In by far the majority of cases,” says the encyclopedia, “twins have separate uterine appendages, and have probably been developed from distinct, ova; but in a small proportion of (recorded) cases there is evidence, in the placental and enclosing struc- tures, that the twins had been de- veloped from two rudiments arising side by side on a single blastoderm.
