_ WRANGLE IN COURT a Stepmother her and Daugh Daughter Seek Title to Share of Estate in Question a Stepmother and daughter, figur- ia atively, will face each other in state supreme court during its November term, in a contest for possession of a } $500 portion of the estate of the hus: 4 band and father. ‘ Clara C. Roach, the stepmother, of Colfax county, Nebraska, seeks a re~ versal of the judgment of the Traill county district court jury which granted the right of possession to the daughter, Mrs. Valette Roach McKee, of Lincoln, Neb., and to the First Na- ‘tional Bank of Hillsboro, N. D. Tried before District Judge P. G. Swenson in Traill county, the original i suft charged Mrs. McKee and the bank with unlawful possession of the money and asked it be adjudged the property of the stepmother. -* Mrs. McKee asserted she had’ been \. Biven power to draw the amount from the account of her father, Roy V. Roach, with which to pay taxes ana insurance. The bank denied owner- ship of the money but admitted pos- session, explaining it was prepared to turn over the money to the person , determined by the court. Mrs. Roach, following the death of 5 her husband Oct. 19, 1933, was ap- { pointed administratrix, and instituted the action for the money. Gertrude; two sons, Dudwig, Jr., of Hannover. ae BISMARCK.

This, to us, seems most unfair, In the first place, these farmers have been given a base acre- age for wheat and also a base allot- ment. To force them to accept an jallotment based on what their farms jactually produced will force many of them out of the plan. In the first Place, farmers taking the county al- lotment plan are those farmers who were unable, for different reasons, to give the correct Rroduction figures on thelr places. And, in cases of de- Arizona's unpaid tax total in 1928 W&S $1,614,687 and on June 30, 1934 the last date on which figures were compiled, $14,299,000. Generally collections were reported improved in the years since the de- ion low. Michigan, with $250,000,000 in un- paid taxes due, recently appropriated $75,000 for a newspaper advertising campaign.

Is it any wonder feed crops are selling for what they are when this is going on and farmers who joined the wheat al- lotment plan can rent hyndreds of additional acres? How can we even hope to reduce the surplus under any such feshion, an* what is feir or just about such a scheme? To us it looks mightily like defrauding the govern- ment. Something should be done about it! But the little fellow who had to take the county average because he did not know how much the other fellow raised, or. because he was hail- ed out, or for other reasons, will lose out, while the other fellow gains. That is the way it looks to us, at least, and we have talked to a lot of farmers who will not sign up under any such circumstances, We would like to see what other farmers think about this, and if it is the truth the AAA officers do not need worry about the decision of the Qgreement in all particuigrs do not clutches on—and permitted to do it) “Los Angeles, Oct. 30.—UP)-—A sud~ den spurt of flames froma strest cer control box left 33 persons nursing sengers and.the motorman.
