THE NORTH DAKOTA
TAX BURDENS

Facts given out by the North Da
kota state tax commission seem to
justify the reports OF increased tax
es In that state.
From 1916 to 1919 inclusive state
taxes are shown to have increased
from $1,4O3.1S0, to $3.65s,Ss5,
making 1919 state taxes 2S1 per cent
Of 1915; county taxes increased from
S4.sss.2S0 to s7.s54.674, making
1919 county taxes 100 per cent of
1915; city. town and village taxes
increased from $2.O74,716 to ;S,-
257,191, making 1919 taxes 1857 per

SENATOR FUNK

In the matter of "sky rocket" price of
sugar, Senator Funk, Fair Price Commits
siOner, presents some interesting argu-
ment. Litsen to what he says:
CAS- the federal fair price commission
understands the Lever act, profiteering
in any of the necessities of life consists in
taking large profit on the actual COST
"In justice to the sugar factories it
should be pointed out that the Lever act
according to this Interpretation, does not
take account of wide fluctuations in mar
ket conditions. And in Justice to the SUI
gar company it may be said that is is ex
periencing the hardship of working
against market conditions.
"Utahns should remember that, until
the present they have been obtaining
their sugar at price to 9 cents less
than the actual market all around, with
the exception of Colorado.
"This meant that other markets were
coming into Utah and obtaining supplies
of sugar at retail and shipping them out
of the state, thus depriving this state of
sugar, which, in the usual course of
events, would be consumed here. This
was a class Of trade which it was difficult
to regulate. Outsiders were making mon
ey out of it and to the extent that they
took the sugar away, the people of Utah
were not benefited, because their supply
of sugar was being depleted to that ex-,
tent.
"At the same time. the amount of SUI
gar so taken out of the state, while it
worked hardship here was not large en-
ough to cut any figure on the nations
sugar market The resident of the east
did not get his sugar any cheaper on that
account. From this point of view, there
fore, outsiders were making money out of
Utah sugar that might just as well have
been made by Utahns
"That point of view, however, does not
take into account the provisions of the
Lever act The situation has been re-
ported to the proper officials of the de-
partment of justice for such action as
they may see fit to take under the cir
cumstances."
From the Senator's argument any per.
son who can read the English language
must first arrive at the conclusion that
the case is one of pure, unadulterated
profiteering. Thus sayeth the law, and
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1920-05-04

no side arguments concerning the "fluc-
tuations" of markets, the price Utahns
have been paying in comparison to other
states, and any condition whereby it was
advantageous for our friends and neigh
bors to cross state lines and buy our SUI
gar, will change the law. Of course Corr
missioner Funk practically admits as
much and closes by saving that the mat
ter has been sumitted to the proper Off
Gals But the thing that is puzzling some
people is who is the proper official"
We have been going along thinking that
Commissioner Funk was the proper Off
ciap and are now wondering why he does
not act.

PASS 1T ALONG

When you return to Logan from trip
to some other town, or one that took you
into many. towns and communities, don't
come back with reports of how far be-
hind the times we are, or with how much
more attention other towns pay to i'm
provements. For that kind of talk is to
apt to be construed as knocking" On
the other hand, come with suggestions of
how we can adopt the example of some
other town with benefit tot all here at
home. Point out the good things you saw
in the other town we ought to adopt here
and suggest to your neighbors that we
get busy and make the same improve
mentS.
We learn largely by watching others,
and good towns become better by adopt
ing the things other towns have found by
experience are worth something to the
public at large. We never get anywhere
by merely pointing out our home towns
shortcomings, or making comparisons
with some other town that puts us in
poor light. If the other town has pub
lie place for parking autos, vacant lot
or special side street, where they will be
safe and out of the way of traffic. then
let us set about securing something like
that. If other towns. have better svs-
tenn of keeping the streets clean and in
repair, let us know what it is so we can
talk it over and adopt the same methods
here. If other towns are making special
bid for outside trade or new industries.
tell our public spirited citizens about it
) that they may think it over, and devise
some way to follow the example. MI.
Suggestions are always in order, and
anything that works well in another town
will work well here. So don't hesitate to
pass them along, remembering all the
time that one good suggestion offsets a
thousand knocks.
