Outlines Changes Needed in

Bismarck, N. D., jan 27.-Dr. #. 4.
Mcvey, president Of the state upiyer-

the State Tax association in this city
yesterday and spoke on the state tax
commission. In substance DR.. MeVey

The present form Of taxation is an
accumulation of notions and ideas
regarding the raising. of revenue
which has gone on, for many centu-
r1es. The personal property tax can
be traced back to the days of Queen
Elizabeth, and the land tax is as old
as government itself.
Progress in the modification. Of tax
alton has been slow. In the first
place. many people fear that q change
in the law will result in heavier bur
dens being placed upon them,. and
knowing what they have to expect
under existing circumstances, they
hesitate to make any change. Again,
there is deplorable lack of knowl-
edge regarding the inequalities exist

From time to time efforts have
