BRANT PROTESTING TAX CANCELLATION Emmons Treasurer Believes Act of Last Legislature Is Unconstitutional Linton, N. D., July 8—Because he Delieves the act unconstitutional, E. 4. Brant, Emmons county treasurer. 1s not complying with the provisions of House Bill 48 which permits the payment and cancellation of personal yy taxes levied for the year 1933 and prior years. serra law provides that all unpaid rsonal property taxes, together with Taterest, penalty and costs accruing to date of payment shall be canceled upon payment of the following amounts: For the year 1930 and all prior years ‘upon payment of 40 per cent of the tax and for the years 1932 cent of the original tax. Under the law which was passed by the 1935 legislature on March 11 with the emergency clause attached, tn order to benefit from the reduc- tions payment must be made prior to Jan, 1, 1936. Brant maintains the law discrim- inates against property owners who have paid their full levy and there- fore is not equal taxation. He believes the supreme court would sustain his stand if the law is tested. Since the law went into effect, Brant says, only two or three persons have complained of the stand he has taken. In these cases he has col- lected the full tax and marked the veceipts “paid under protest.” In 1933, when delinquent personal |¢; property taxes could be paid without penalty and interest and at an added discount of 10 per cent, Brant says, few people took advantage of the offer. “The whole amount collected | under that offer wasn’t more than $100,” he says.

D. Jaap said early Monday that the death late Sunday night of Dr. W. E. Sealock, dismissed Omaha Municipal university presi- dent, was caused by a self-adminis- tered poison and that no inquest would be held. Dr. Sealock’s act cli- <a maxed a controversy that swirled around his ouster by the university tly | regents for unstated reasons, In his last words he said efforts to reinstate him were futile because of bitter feeling already engendered. While he died before the eyes of his wife and daughter, a request from his sh | friends was on a mail train to Wash- ington asking the American Associa- tion of University Professors to in- vestigate the unexplained dismissal of Sealock two weeks ago by the uni- versity board of regents. Sealock’s dismissal followed rejec- tion by the regents as unfounded of his charge that a “spy system” ex- isted on the campus. A secret hear- ing was held.

May Use Works Money To Improve Fisheries Washington, July 8.—()—Fisheries Officials of the department of com- merce Monday sought public works approval of $102,000 in projects for Montana. The relief applications included, for Yepairs, reconditioning and enlarge- ment of fish hatcheries, $12,000 for Bozeman; $20,000, Ennis; $5,000, Miles City, and $65,000, Glacier park. The latter is embraced in a $179,800 application for construction of fish hatcheries along with buildings, ponds, water supply, roads and general cul- tural facilities, including Glacier park ‘und other national points.

But com- Petitors who accepted stock instead of cash when he sought to buy them out rode along with Rockefeller to fabulous fortunes. The Standard Oi! Trust was broken in 1902, but the master and his men carried right on in control of the component companies. In 1907 Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis fined Rockefeller $29,240,000 on a conviction on 1,462 counts fer accepting illegal re- bates from railroads, but the fines later were declared invalid. That was in 1911, when he retired from active business. At this time it occurred to the Rockefellers that ‘hey might employ the same methods of propaganda chat had been used against them. A press- agent was engaged. And so Mr. Rockefeller began the metamorphosis from monster to unmitigated blessing of the human race. In scarcely any time, aided by his philanthropies, he had attained an entirely new place in public estimation. Jn publle estimation, Love of Clothes | L. Results in Arrest | Linton, N.

CONTINUED from page one- Morgenthau Avers $901,500,000 Can Be Raised by It “The treasury’s first concern is with the adequacy of the national rev- enue,” Morgenthau said. “There are times of emergency when the treas- ury must finance expenditures in ex- cess of income, by borrowings which increase the public debt. “But the national welfare demands that when such an emergency has passed sufficient income be raised both to meet current expenditures and to make substantial reductions in | the debt. “The time has come to move in this direction. It would, of course, be un- wise to impose tax burdens which would retard recovery. But it would be equally unwise not to call on sources of revenue which would re- duce our borrowings and later reduce the national debt without interfering with recovery and it is my belief tnat the additional taxes which the presi- dent has now recommended fall with- in this latter class.” Republicans Enter Protest Republicans immediately snapped up the debt reduction idea. Rep- resentative Jenkins (Rep.-Ohio), among others, objected that the pro- posed taxes would have no substan- tial effect on the debt. “What we're hopeful of,” remarked Representative Knutson (Rep.-Minn.), “is a definite policy. We want to get off this merry-go-round and head in @ definite direction.” Then turning to Morgenthau he asked: “Is your primary purpose to re- distribute wealth or raise additional revenue?” The secretary replied that his sole Purpose was to present to the com- mittee estimates which he had been asked to prepare on new tax rates submitted to him by the committee. On these he said: “Your 18 sched- ules relating to inheritance and gift taxes would produce yields ranging from about seven millions to $728,000,- 000. in Bulgaria is produced by the state- owned colliery at Pernik. “Your six schedules relating to in- creased bracket rates on large indivi- ’!ous to regard any part of these new dual incomes would produce revenue ylelds from about five millions to 32 and a half millions. “Your three schedules relating to a graduated corporation income tax would produce revenue yields from about 67 millions to one hundred and two millions, “Your suggestion relating to meth- ods of partially removing the present total tax exemption of dividends re- ceived by corporations would produce revenue approximating 39 million dollars.” Cites Common Responsibility “Because of our common respon-/ sibility for safeguarding the nation’s credit,” Morgenthau said, “we are vitally concerned in the use which is to be made of the revenue that may be derived from the proposed taxes. “As secretary of the treasury, it is my prediction that it would be peril- Chicago board 2f revenues as available for new types of expenditures or as justifying any | increase over our carefully budgeted plans for federal outlays.” This was regarded in some circles as an administration answer to new Proposals for paying eff the bonus. “The course which I feel sure will appeal to all of you as the only sound procedure is ‘hat «he revenue derived from these new taxes shall be regard- ed as very definitely ear-marked for reducing future borrowing and paying off the public debt,” Morgenthau con- tinued. “We should set aside the proceeds of these new taxes and safeguard them as carefully as was the stabil- ization fund. “Bome months ago in discussing monetary matters, I spoke of the in- crement on gold resulting from re- valuation as having been placed in a special drawer from the treasury’s cash register, hence it was being kept separate from other funds and was not to be used for ordinary expendi- tures. Plans ‘Special Drawer’ “Silver seigniorage resulting trom the silver purchase act is being sim- ilarly handled. ... I think it would be the highest public interest to re- gard the proceeds of these new taxes as occupying a third special drawer in the treasury, available only to re- duce our borrowing and later reduce the national debt.” Representative Crowther (Rep.- N.Y.) asked Morgenthau if he thought the “emergency is past.” “I wouldn't say it is over, but the worst of it is.” “What I’m afraid of,” Knutson (Rep.-Minn.) interposed, “is that this will be more money for the govern- ment to spend. What is being done to balance the budget?” “Well,” Morgenthau answered, “we have just finished the fiscal year with the deficit considerably under the estimate. I will say that we have had @ good start.” “What was the deficit?” Knutson pursued. “Exclusive of the sinking fund, $3,000,000,000,” Morgenthau answered. “Well, that is $3 for every minute since the dawn of the Christian era; I don’t think that is deserving of | much credit,” Knutson said.
