THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. INCOMES IMPROVED SAYSN. D, TAX HEAD Weeks Asserts That Average for This Year Will Be Higher Than Last North, Dakota incomes are increas- ing, returns into the office of state tax commissioner J. J. Weeks indi- cated Friday. Thousands of letters swamped his| office force, as the deadline at mid-| night Friday for return to state in- come tax returns drew near. ‘Weeks, after a scrutiny of the re- turns declared that the average in- come of merchants, farmers in the eastern portion of the state and pro- fessional men generally “is on the in- crease.” | “Farmers in the eastern section of| the state who have not made an in- come tax return for the past few years this year are making returns on in- comes on which they are paying sub- stantial taxes,” Weeks sald, “the same is true of professional men and mer- chants of the state.” He laid the increases in income of professional men nd merchnts to the flow of FERA money in the state, while better crop conditions in the) eastern section of the state were ex- plained by him as the reason for ad- vanced income of farmers in that sec- | tion. More than $200,000 is expected to} be collected in income taxes this) year, Weeks said. This is an in-/ crease over last year when approxi-| mately $150,000 was collected. Final deadline on the submission of | income tax returns comes at midnight | Friday night, after which penalties) ranging from the minimum of $1 to any amount in the discretion of the commissioner may be imposed. Nine Communists in Senate, Probers Told Washington, March 15.—(?)—An assertion by William B. Shearer, big) navy advocate, that nine senators were “recorded in the department of justice records with past affiliations with the Communist party,” was read Priday into the record of the senate munitions committee. Justice department officials prompt- ly denied that any such records ex- isted. This climaxed a tumultuous session almost rivaling the one earlier in the ‘week when Shearer thundered out a denunciation of big ship builders who once had employed him as a “propa- gandist” at the naval limitations con- ference in Geneva in 1927, and later broke with him, purportedly in a dis- agreement over pay. Shearer made no effort to point out which nine of the senators he claimed were on the justice depart- ment list, and the committee did not pursue its questioning to bring this out.

Mellon paid enough tax on that transaction. As on most of the other days of this week, the testimony in Mellon’s $3,- 089,000 income tax case was devoted to a meticulous. of events leading up to the time in 1931 when |;,, the big favrieating firm was taken over by the Bethlehem Steel cor- poration. F. R. Shearer, government account- ant, developed from A. J. Slater’s tes- timony that in negotiating for $21,- 000,000 of McClintic-Marshall’s assets in 1930, Bethlehem first learned the bonds it offered to complete the deal would not be offered at public sale. It was agreed that Union Trust com- pany of Pittsburgh, as trustee, would pay cash for the bonds and they pe not go on the market, said later. called to explain the bond sale. APPROVE NAVY PLANS London—The British gdvernment’s plans for expending approximately $16,500,000 more on its naval estab- lishments in 1935 than in the previous year was approved in the house of ‘commons, 158 to 48.

RETIRING LAND IN SLOPE COUNTIES 74,000 Acres of Homestead Acreage in McKenzie and Bowman Withdrawn Approximately 74,000 acres of gov- ernment-owned homestead land in McKenzie and Bowman counties is be included in the government's prearsia of retiring lands from production, according to Chris Bertsch, register of the U. 8. Land office here. ‘The land in the two counties com- prises a litite more than half of the 146,000 acres of unappropriated and unreserved land in charge of the land office in this state. Fifty thou- sand acres are located in McKenzie county where the government has contracted for an additional 200,000/anq acres of submarginal lands and 24,000 acres are in Bowman county, Bertsch In both counties, federal field men are now at work inspecting lands which farmers and ranchers wish to sell. The government purchases are of the poorest acreages which ex- perience has shown to be unproduc- tive. Where the lands are not to be used for park or other purposes, it is expected the land will be leased to former owners at less than they would have paid in taxes, Bertsch said. Only 1,080 acres of homestead lands in charge of the U. 8. Land office are located in Burleigh coun- ty. Other total acreages by counties include: Billings, 22,008; Dunn, 10,- Long Has Hopes of Nomination in 1936 | Rovsevet Philadelphia, “Mar. 15.—()—Hopes, Long, as the Louisianan carried his “share-the-wealth” gospel into Penn- sylvania, But as for the presidency, he Loved conference, he doesn’ Before ® large audience, some of whom cheered and some of whom booed, Long unleashed new attacks on President Roosevelt and admin- istration leaders.
