EVERY COMMUNITY
HAS TAX-DODCERS
Tax Commission Includes Morris
in Sweeping Statement Be-
fore County Assessors

Who are the rich men in Morris and
the other communities in Stevens
county who are tax dodgers? Every
body who pays taxes or are interested
in taxation would like to know.
In talk to the assessors of Ste
vens county at the court house in
Morris last Friday Hon. Sam Lord,
chairman Of the Minnesota tax COM
mission, stated tax dodgers existed in
every community and issued a warn
ing to assessors to look out for them
in making the assessment rounds this
spring. He stated tax-dodging was
resorted to most by people who are
best able to pay. cit is not the citi-
zen of limited MEANS" he said, whose
property is all in sight and easily
found by the assessor who escapes. 1t
is among people with bullying pocket
books where we find our fragrant tax
dodgers. Many of these people by
one dishonest devise or another evade
every tax they safely can. Much can
be done by assessors to prevent tax
dodging if they will perform their
duties fearlessly and diligently, and
in strict accordance to law"
Mr.. Lord was here for the purpose
of comforting with the assessors in re-
gard to their duties under the new
laws of the state. Many changes
were made by the last Legislature and
in order to eliminate confusion the tax
commission is making the rounds of
the state and meeting the assessors at
the county seat towns. The meeting
was we'll attended with the following
present: J. P. Anderson, Hodges;
N. E. Solseth, Framnas; CLAUS Thor
stad, Swan Lake; VIM. Wagner,
Darnen; Dennis Sullivan, Morris; C.
O. Aanerud, Rendsville; W. F.
Groth, Synnes; Aug Fluegel, Scott;
Paul Schlattman, Pepperton; C. K.
Weltzin, Donnelly; Harley Hanson,
Stevens; W. Jones, Baker; P. C.
Ross, EIdorado. The city of Morris
and the villages were represented by
Erick Peterson, Morris; W. F. Doyle,
Chokio; F. J. Kolodzej, Donnelly, and
C. M. Bagstad, Alberta.
Among other things, Mr.. Lord said
THE assessment laws of the state
now require that household goods and
wearing apparel shall be assessed at
Is per cent of their true and full
value in money; merchandise, farm
products, live stock, machinery of all
kinds and farm lands at SO 1-3 per
cent of their value; and all other pro-
perty, including plated village and
city real estate, and bank stock at 40
per cent of it's full value.
"The opinion is quite prevalent
throughout the state that in some
way not clearly understood the as
SCISSOR is responsible for high taxes.
Taxes are unquestionably high; but
the assessor has had no more to do
with making them so than any other
citizen. The duty of the assessor is
simply to value the property upon
which taxes are levied. The assess !
ment is simply a factor to determine
how much each person shall contribute
to the expense of government, but it
does not determine the amount of the
tax. The amount of money to be
raised by taxation is determined by
town meetings, school meetinsg. will
age and city councils, county boards,
the legislature and by the people
