ROBINSON SEES
NEED OF SECOND
SPECIAL SEANCE
League Jurists Insist That Leg
islature Must Increase
Tax Cut
CALLS BURDEN VAMPlRlsH
Declares Excessive Levies Are
Sucking Life Blood Of
North Dakota j.

Reiterating his charge that a great
wrong was done the people by the
Sixteenth assembly in it's regular
session last winter through greatly
increasing the tax burden, Associate
Justice James e. Robinson, in today's
Saturday evening letter, again insists
that, these tax leves should be re-
duced so per cent, insead of only %
per cent, as was done by the recent
special session.
To do that it may be worth while
to call another extra session of the
legislature, says Judge Robinson.
1.-THE cost of an extra session is small
compared with that of special cleo
ton"
"Of late, continues the league
jurist, "the system of taxation has
been spreading out over the state like
great vampire, with tentacles to suck
the life blood Of the people. 1t is time
to clip its winge severely and to return
to fair and honest system of taxa
tion, based on the just valuation OF
property, and on nothing else. 1t is
time to cease trying to cloak, excuse
and cover up lavish expenses and in
efficiency which prevail in the public
service"
Judge Robinson commends the leg
islature for repeating it's own moneys
and credits tax. THE purpose OF
this cunning threc-mill statute, he
says, "was to levy a large portion
of our state taxes on the people OF
Minnesota"
