COUNTY AUDITORS
DISCUSS DETAILS
WITH COMMISSION

Bismarck, Nd, March 29.-County
auditors from the southwestern quar-
ter Of North Dakota met here. yester-
day with, the state tax commission to
discuss the duties Of county tax sup
e%rvisors under thee leagues, new tax
alton program. The problem proved
to be a complicated one, and the en-
tire day was devoted to an effort to
work out some, uniform mode of pro-
cedure.
The league tax bills will result in
the creation of a new Office in each
county to be filled at an average of
$500 per annum for. each county or
$4,000 for the state. The tax super
visor will assume N of the duties
o performed by the county auditor
and the county board of equalization,
IN addition to new duties created by
the league tax bills.
The question of exemptions, uni.
form classification and other techni-
cal problems were taken up and thor
onghly discussed, and it Is probable
that as a result Of this conference
and similar. meetings for the other
three-quarters of the state in Minot
Grand Forks and Fargo, some general
plan will be arrived at.
Tax supervisors are. being APP.
pointed by the tax commissioner, and
the position has been tentatively
filled in about half of the counties.

cannot. recall in ali of my public ex-
perience any action quite SO high

today, In commenting upon the re-
fusal Of Governor Frazier to permit
the printing of the dissenting opinion
Of Chief Justice A. NJ. Christianson in
tain the three opinions Of league
members Of the supreme \court up
holding the majority Of the state con-
wasting board in its action on the
league amendments.
Secretary of State Hall. with State
Treasurer John Steen, opposed the
action of Attorney General LANCER,
Macdonald and State Auditor Ko-
sticky in declaring. on the strength
of a comprehensive opinion prepared
by the attorney general, that five of
the league amendments which did not
receive a majority Of all the votes
cast, were approved by a majority of
the votes severally cast for each prop
osition.
The dissenting opinion of Chief
Justice Christianson. handed down
this week. supports the stand of Sec
rotary of State Hall and former State
Treasurer Steen. The opinion was not
handed down earlier because of the
(, serious illness Of the chief Justice, but
it has come in plenty of time to per-
nit it's inclusion in the official pamph-
llet which the industrial commission
is printing at state expense. $50
Secretary of State Hall personally
requested the governor to have Chief
Justice Christianson's dissenting opin-
ion printed with the majority opin-
ions Of the court. in order hat the
people might have both sides of the
Question. Governor Frazier fatty de-
clined, declaring the league side of
the issue sufficient for the people. To
make certain that the Christensen
opinion be not given to the people,
the governor went to State Printer
Jacobson and gave his positive or
ders to eliminate the dissenting opin-
ion.

league of nations have been briefly
outlined in the preceding installments
OF the present series, and 1T Is fortu-
nat that representatives Of each OF
the countries. have contributed to the
discussion lately. There is m point,
however. which has been touched up
on very rarely, namely that concern
ing Finland.
That Iceland would be automatic
ally included in any Scandinavian
league goes without saying. the, ques-
ton there until recently was how to
bring about a more complete home
rule than that which the Danish gov
eminent granted the liberty-loving
islanders, but that has now been
solved to the mutual satisfaction of
all parties concerned.
But Finland presents a problem
quite apart from those involved in the
ordinary discussion of Scandinavian
ism, and as things there are still in a
rather chaotic state, it is difficult to
indulge in any forecast concerning
Finland's place in the Scandinavia of
the future.
Racially Different.
One feature which strikes the stu
dent as seemingly convincing is that
the Firms are racially as different
from Scandinavians as are the Mon
golians and the Magyars. This. despite
the fact that the ancient Swedish pro-
vince has been saturated with Swed-
ish culture from time immemorial,
and that about one-eighth of the
country's population is of Swedish de-
scent.

tional song and that undying martial
air, Bjoerneborgernas March. were
written in the Swedish language.
AS far IS the three Scandinavian
countries are. concerned, there has al
ways been a feeling of deep affection
for the Firms, but as for practical and
political cooperation with them. the
matter was decidedly different. The
classification of Finland, especially
during the Bokrikoff period, called
forth a wave of sympathy everywhere
in Scandinavia, and during the most

There are a number of minor de-
tails in the proposal published by
Swedish Scandinavian" in the Stats
vetenskapligt Tidskrift, and the APP
pearance of the essay called forth an
interesting discussion in all three
countries as well as in Iceland which,
by the way, subsequently secured in
dependence through a model agree
ment with Denmark.
the proposal can be briefly summar-
lied as a slight fear that Sweden may
attempt to use her superiority with
the object of dominating the affairs
of the republic; IN Sweden the opin-
ion, as crystallized in journals and
periodicals. is that the plan is to some
extent the work of a visionary who
does not look at politics from the
point Of feasibility. Still, many Swedes
