T0G. E. WALLACE
Farmer Frank Relinquishes the
Plum Before He DiscOv-

Frank Il. Packard is doing cOnsid-
cradle thinking on the subject of the
tax commisisonership. Some time
ago, as the press announced, Com
missioner Packard decided there was
a more fertile field for his abilities in
the office CT the attorney general
and it was announced that when the
three.man tax commission was re
duced to one, The Honorable Frank
would become an assistant attorney
general. The salary for assistants
attorney general has been raised by
a bill passed during the present ses
sion to $4,000, placing the remunera
tion on the same basis as that OF
members Of the tax commission.
Packard, therefore Kindly consented
forgive the tax commisisonership to
George E. Wallace, The latter agreed
to- accept, but only on condition that
the salary be boosted $1,000 per an
mum. He got this boost. He also
got more clerical help and bigger
appropriation than was originally
contemplated.# and now Packard is
wondering whether a $4,000 tax com
misionership, with the opportunities
if offers for evening old scores with
State Auditor Kositzky. isn't a more
attractive proposition than a $4,000
assistant attorney generalship.
