STATES FINANCIAL AFFAIRS
GIVEN FEDERAL ANALYSIS

The federal department of commerce
has issued census report showing the
costs Of government for the state of
North Dakota for the fiscal year ended
June 80, 1921. The total amounted to
$500, 1882, which was per capita cost
Of $12.S3. In 1918 the per capita cost
was $7.63, and in 1915, $8.18, the totals
for these years being $4,s2s,334 and
S3,775,7 54, respectively. The per capita
costs for 1921 consisted of expenses of
general departments, 1855; expenses
of public service enterprises, $1.33 ;
payments for interest, $O17; and for
OUTLAWS, SITS.
The total revenue receipts in 1921
were s7,4s4,7s5, or $11.44 per capita.
For the fiscal year the per capita ex-
cess Of governmental costs over reve-
nue. receipts was, therefore, $1.39.
Sources Of Revenue.
Property and special taxes constitute
the greater part of the revenue in a
majority Of states. In North Dakota
they represented $3.50 per cent for 1921,
31.7 per cent for 1918, and S5.7 per
cent for 1915. The increase in the
amount Of property and special taxes
collected was 1871 per cent from 1915
to 1918, and 1913 per cent from 1918
to 1921. The per capita property and
special taxes for the three specified
years were SAL, 1884, and 1922 res
pectively.
Earnings of general departments, or
compensation for services rendered by
state officials, represented 1865 per
cent Of the total revenue for 1921,
23.4 per cent for 1918 and 23.O per
cent for 1915.
Business and non-business licenses,
which in previous years included re-
ceipts from liquor licenses, constituted
l4.S per cent Of the total revenue for
1921, 1875 per cent for 1918, and SO
per cent for 1915. Receipts from bust
ness licenses consist chiefly of taxes
eNacted from insurance and other in
corporated companies, while those
from non-business licenses comprise
taxes on motor vehicles and amounts
paid for hunting and fishing privileges.
Indebtedness.
The net Indebtedness funded and
floating debt less sinking fund assets)
Of North Dakota is decreasing, being
so.51 per capita for 1921, 5000 for
1918, 5000 for 1915.
Assessed Valuations and Tax Levies,
In nearly all states the property sub
ject to the general property tax varies
in the reported basis of assessment,
though in most instances the law re.
quires that property be assessed at full
market value. For this reason the best
measure Of cost to the property owner
is the per capita tax levy. The Der
capita levy for North Dakota for 1921
was $3.50.
