Tax
Sales May Aid
State in Crisis
Prompt Remittance Of Money
May Avert Registration of
Warrants to Pay
Expenses.

Lincoln, Oct. l0.-(Special y
State officials look hopefully to the
advertised sale of hundreds of thou
sands of dollars of Nebraska prop
erty to cover delinquent taxes as
a means of bolstering Up the depleted
state treasury.
These taxes, either collected from
the property ownera or the proper
ty sold. if transmitted in rapid-fire
order to the STAGE treasury probably
will stave off registration of war
rants pending the receipt of winter
taxes.
Dan Cropsey, state treasurer. de-
clared today it was a gamble wheth-
er the state would be obliged to reg
lister warrants before the taxes be-
gan pouring in. He was confident
that a majority of state employees
would get their money at par, but
was dubious whether others to whom
the state was indebted would be
able to get unregistered warrants in
a short time.
Meantime, there is a determination
among state officials to insist that
tax-paying time be changed by leg
islative enactment so it will dove
tail with the legislative appropria-
ton paying tine. This, they declare.
is the reason for the present short
age.
The legislature appropriated hun
dreds of thousands of dollars to be
paid out of the treasury Immediately.
months in advance of the time when
the tax money to cover these ap-
preparations is received.
A recommendation for such legis-
lation was made by Governor Nc
Kelvie last winter, but was ignored.

also power plant for furnishing

The project was declared by gov

the most prosperous irrigated region
of the land. The cost will be paid
ultimately by the land owners in
yearly installments. These will not

Upper Silesian
Tanggle Settled by
League, Report
Industrial Region Will Be
Maintained as Economic
Unit for Is Years Under
Commission.

Buenos Aires, Oct. l0.-The indus
trial region, of Upper Silesia will be
maintained as an industrial and
economic ~union for IS years, under
the solution OF the Upper Silesia dis
pute reached by the council of the
league OF nations, of which the
Geneva correspondent of La Nacion
says he has authoritatively learned
the substance.
The industrial region would be ad-
ministered during this period by an
international commission. The ter
ritory in dispute politically would be
divided into two zones under Polish
and German sovereignty respective
ly, and while delimitation of the
frontiers is not yet completed, it
would be more favorable to Poland
than the recent delinitation pro-
posed by Great Britain closely fol-
lowing the plebiscite line with
Beuthen assigned to Poland.
While there will be two distinct
political zones, the industrial region
would be constituted as single
economic union with the same none
tary basis and common railway and
industrial administrations.
According to this plan the Ger
mans and Poles would continue to
utilize reciprocaily the advantages
of the region.
