LEGAL CONTEST OVER MRS.
Hill, ESTATE

a4 Il "
Disagreement among the heirs Of
Mrs. Mary I. Hill, widow of James j.
Hill, over the disposition of their
mother IS estate, grew into legal con-
test late today when Louis W. Hill,
chairman of the Great Northern rail-
road, fled application in the Ramsey
county probate court for his appoint
ment as administrator.
A previous petition for the appoint
ment of the Northwestern Trust Com
pany, one of the financial institutions
owned by the Hill family, was fled on
Nov. 80. At that time, other members
of the family denied there was a. dis
agreement, although Mr.. Hill did not
sign the petition.
Evidence Of lack of harmony was i'm
mediately presented, however, when
control of the trust company was taken
by the other children from Chairman
Hill. President c.. p. Brown of the
mey,a former confidential secretary to
James j. Hill and agent for the Hill
family, were retired as directors of the
trust company.
A deed to North Oaks farm, near
Bass lake, also was filed by Mr.. Hill to-
day. His ownership of this property
transferred to him by his mother in
january, 1919, also has been questioned
by other heirs.
Mrs. HILLS estate is expected to ap-
proximate $4,000, 900, virtually all Of
which is personal property, including
holdings in various railroads, banking
and ore properties. The Summit ave
nue. property is the only real estate
it was declared.

eenses Of other states, Mike Holm, sec
rotary Of state, said that final state
wide campaign TO collect motor vehicle

Investigations of ownership of cars
operated In Minnesota under foreign
icence tags is about completed, Secre
tary Holm said. In the larger cities
and some localities the police. helped
the state inspectors with the work. En-
forcement proceedings are to be start
ed in cases where Minnesota ownership
is established.
Sales of 1922 automobile tags viii
open January 5 at Secretary Holm S
office at the capitol. Application
forms, however, may be procured at

1921 registration certificate, the secre
tary emphasized, and also remittance
covering all taxes, including any ar
rcars with penalties.
In spite of many protests following
reductions in automobile prices, the tai
rate is based on the factor
on November L OF the model year.
While this may make the tax higher on
Old than new cars Of the same make,
Secretary Holm explained that the leg
islature alone has power to change il.
