HAS LITTLE FEAR THAT. THERE Il BE NJ MONEY. FUR TAX COMMISSION

Light was shed yesterday on the problem of where the money is coming from and how the bills are to be pad for some 15 sections of the state gov ernment not provided for in speciflc appropriations.
 The state auditor recently announced that he would refuse to draw warrants to pay the expenses Of sucn depart ments as did not receive speciflc ap- propriations. and intiInated that there would not be any money to pay them anyway. All this because of the re- strictions in Senate Bill 90. Now comes the tax commission and board Of equalization-with a solution for at least part of the difficulty.
 Under the authority of Senate Bill
 135. the so-called Levy bill" the
 board of equalization is authorized to
 levy a tax sufficient, with other sources of revenue, to defray the neces-
 sary ordinary expenses of the state for
 each of the fiscal years. as authorized
 by law, to pay the deficits for the pre-
 ceding fiscal year, 10 provide for a
 sinking fund, and to pay the annual
 interest on the state debt."
 The time honored method, not in the least changed by recent legislation, IS for the different departments to make an estimate of their probable expenses and send it to the auditor, whose duty it is to transmit it to the board or equalization, which board uses them as basis for making the levy.
 The board of equalization, said one of the members today, will un- doubtedly make a levy, based oh these budgets submitted by the various de- partments, that will raise sufficient money to meet all appropriations and pay all other legitimate expenses. The money will then be in the treasury to pay all the expenses for which direct appropriations were made. and also sufficient to pay those expenses the state has been accustomed to pay.
 "The question then remaining, whether the auditor will issue the warrants to pay these expenses for
 which specific appropriations were not made, is a matter to be settled in court ] between the auditor and the depart ments concerned. It would seem, how ever. although l have no legal opinion on this point. that the fact that the state has always paid these expenses under laws duly enacted, and that these 1 laws were not specifically repealed. would estop the state and the auditor l from refusing to pay these expenses, | so long as there is money to pay them.

 RICHARD CABLE SHOW

Appreciative of the efforts of the Co., lumbia management in bringing to Phoenix Americas most notable musi cal comedy comedian, Richard Carle, at popular prices, theatergoers of this city have literally swamped the Columbia box office in their efforts to secure choice seats for the three perform ance offering of 'F'urs and Frills,' to be the attraction at the Columbia Sat urday and Sunday, April 1s and 20.
 Never before in theatrical history has such a value been offered in this city, and the mana cement of this the ater has already received many con- gratulations because of the fact that it has been able to secure such q noted star as Ricshard Care and at such popular prices.
 In fact, many out-o town visitors who have made reservations can hard ly believe that it is Richard Carle him. self who is to visit this city.

as far as possible the water in the Roosevelt dam
 Think Two Feet Enough
 The order granting the temporary restraining order limits the amount that might be purchased by the plain tiffs to two acre feet per acre for the remainder of the irrgating season, but does not permit this amount to be fur nisned in the event other water users should not be furnished that amount because of shortage of the supply. In other words, the plaintiffs are placed upon footing with the owners of class co lands within the project up to two feet per acre until October l, 1919.
 In explaining the order. Judge Rich- ard E. Sloan stated that the rate will be charged to the plaintiffs will be S2.40 per acre for the two acre feet. Each plaintiff, however, will be cred ited with any sum he may have paid in for water during the present season. In order to obtain water, the plaintiffs must make application to the Water Users association and pay the water charges. No water win be delivered to any of the plaintiffs until this appfica.- tion be made and the charges paid
 The decision was received by the dry flanders" with satisfaction. II was the general opinion among them that the two acre feet per acre would be sufficient to raise a crop of cotton the present season.
 That the original suit will never come to trial was the opinion ventured yesterday.
