conserve the waste that is now max
ing q useless drain on the resources Of
the country is being made by the ma
tional committee on prisons and prison
labor. which would have tho prisoners

Richard s. childs. chairman of tho
subcommittee on waste under the ma

AUGUST RAIL RETURNS LESS
May Be Used to Support Claim for
Rate Raise.

Compilation by the Interstate Com
merce Commission shows that August
railway net revenues were less by ap-
proximateIy SS,000,O00 than in August,
1916. These figures. it is believed, will
be used by the railroads to support
their claims for rate increase. The
reduction in income was shown in the
face Of an increase of approximately
$4,000, 900 in gross revenues.
Eastern roads, according to the COM
pilation, fell approximately $3,6eo.00O
below net income of year ago: vest

SUPREME |||;' COURT
OFU.S. U!|P Ut
N. D. TAX LAWS
Important Test Case Involv-
ing Taxation Of Property
Willed, Decided.
PAGE

An Associated Press dispatch from
Washington, D. c., this morning says
that the supreme court has sustained
the North Dakota inheritance tax
levying a tax of 25 per cent on props
erty willed to aliens living in foreign
countries. but from 1 1-2 to 2 la per
cent on requests to resident citizens.
The decision is of peculiar interest
to a, number of local citizens of Nor
wegian descent, and Norwegian Vice
Consul l. A. Berg today said that
several cases involving inheritance are
pending which a o be settled
soon.
1t lis reported from Bismarck that
George e. Wallace, attorney for the
state tax commission, has received
notice to appear at Washington on
January Z to argue a case concerning
$4,000. including statutory interests.
The Bismarck report says that a
treaty between the United States and
Norway. relative to Inheritance taxes
is involved.
To all appearances. no such treaty
was ever concluded. In 1888 a treaty
of 'amity and commerce was con
Guided between the United States and
Sweden. but this could not involve
Norway. which at that time was ruled
by the joint governments of Denmark
and Norway. In separate treaties be-

The case of NJ. V. Baker OF Devils
Lake. who is charged with grand lar
ceny. has been transferred from the
jurisdiction of Ramsey county to the

of alleged prejudice.
The information filed sets forth that
Baker had appropriated a certain

son. and that he had lone SO unlaw-
fully. The defendant who denies the
charge, has been released on $1,000
bonds and will appear before District
Judge Charles NJ. Cooley during the

In the order from the court at
Devils Lake it is said that the defend
ant charges the presiding judge with
prejudice in the matter, and that he
for this reason has demanded trial

jcounty. -

tweenSNorway and the United States
of a. later date, no reference is found
to- inheritance agreements, nor does
any such treaty appear among the
official documents exchanged be-
tween the joint governments of Swe-
den and Norway on the n hand and
the United States government on the
other. a
AS there are in this state numerous
descent will property to residents liv-
ing in their old home country, it was
decided to make a test Of the North
Dakota inheritance tax law which
requires hat property willed to per-
sons abroad shall he taxed IS per cent.
A tax was levied against the. estate
of Martin Hagen, a resident. of
Fargo, because he left some of his
property to his sister living in Nor
way. The case was first tried before
Judge Hanson in Fargo, who decided
in favor of the state. On an appeal
to the district court, Judge Pollock
reversed the decision and upon q
further appeal the supreme court of
the state reversed the decision of the
district court. leaving the matter
where it stood when Judge Hanson
had originally disposed of it.

to the United States supreme court.
and the result OF the litigation which
became known today has been anxi-
ously awaited by a number of jurists
throughout North Dakota and other
states as a Yer ylarge number of cases
have been awaiting final action by the
highest court of III land. .
The question had never been de-
cided by the federal tribunals. and it
is said hat the outcome will establish
a precedent for all of the states in
the union which nave inheritance tax
laws similar to hat of North Dakota.
The Bismarck report which says
that Attorney Wallace intends to go
to Washington to argue the case. was
| sent out before the announcement of
the supreme court was issued, so it is
considered likely that the state tan
commissions counscl will have no
opportunity to present his case now.
