Crop Report

With the advent of warmer
weather new feed is coming on
rapidly on the stock ranges and
some light scattered showers have
also been markedly beneficial to
vegetation. Along the southern
border cattle are said to be i'm
proving daily and new feed is
sufficient to hold them for some
time. In the Thatcher section
light spring grasses have ripened
and the absence of rain is being
felt, The high winds Of Monday
were particularly detrimental to
unprotected ranges, especially
those in the northwest where
grass and soil dried rapidly.
Range and stock are improving
in the Pinedale. Fort Apache
and Williams sections.

Countries to pay exactly the same

Thus, he shows. The present dis
elimination in favor of low-cost
countries would be removed This
also would result in helping our

How are we ~oing to help these
nations to pay Ii If debts by charg-
nc tilcm a greater amount OF duty

Mr.. Burgess asks.
Certain large importing houses and
dealers making greater profits on i'm
ported merchandise than they think
they can make on Domestic goods,
are the real opponents OF the Ameri-
can valuation plan the tariff expert
declares.
He answers the argument that
An7c~ican manufacture could raise
ti!c;r prices so a 20 comnel importers
r. pay higher amount Il duty by
citing the following exauple
Assuming oreign a-l;cle to be
worth 20 cents and tie American
article is selling al 81. il would re-
quire 500 Of the American selling
price to equalize the difference be-
tween the foreign and domestic val
res. Now. if the American manu-
facturer raises his price 10 SIPS,
}0@n duty on this value would be
~ cents. the foreign value remain
;.lg at 20 cents, the landed cost would
e 20 cents plus 37l3 cents. which
ives the foreign article the advan-
re Of 1879 cents in this market.
1he American valuation plan places
an automatic check on American
manufacturers doing this very thing.

Mr.. Burgess disputes estimates OF
increased selling prices of commoci,

Committee recently declared would
result from application of the pro-
visions of the Fordney tariff BILL
The increases were estimated at
from 60Gd for wooden dress goods 70

says: Taking their own figures as
a basis and applying the rates OF inc
Fordney bill, we find that the only
additional cost to the retailer woua
be the additional amount OF duty re-
quired under the Fordney bill, Dc,
cause all other costs and overfea0

GOVERNOR J. A. o. PREUS. n
Montevfdeo, Minn.-"Tax reduction"
will be the battle cry of the republt
Governor ]. A. o. Preus, in his key
note speech here, called attention to
the fact that last year and this year,
for the first time in Minnesota's his
tory, the people have been relieved
Of q direct tax for maintaining the
state government, but said that such
action is only the beginning of state
wide program for general tax redue
ton. $685.. 80
Due to the public's demand for bet
ter roads, schools, public buildings,
and better everything" the governor
stated, tax rates have almost reached
the breaking point. He called for q
united program of economy extending
from the school district, township,
village, town, and city to the state
government ITSELF
Governor Preus said in part:
Last year, for the first time In the
history Of the State Of Minnesota, the
people were relieved of direct tax
upon them for maintaining the govern.
ment of the state, including all actiYi-
ties under the state officials elected
by you, as well as all appointive off
GERS named by the governor.
1.-THE entire cost of state govern
ment and state institutions was
paid for out Of taxes collected
from corporations such as the
gross earnings tax on railroads
and other public service corpora
tions and departmental fees.
"This year, for the second time
in the history of the state, the peo-
pie will pay no direct tax for the
maintenance Of the state govern
ment, and this Is largely due to
= the fact that the occupation tax
upon the business Of mining iron
ore was placed upon the statute
books" f..
Mr. Preus stated that this achieve
ment was in line with the republican
state platform, which pledges the
party to "the greatest retrenchment
possible in state expenditures"
So important does he consider the
need for lower taxes, Governor Preus
added, that he decided to conf1ne his
opening speech to this topic alone,
leaving other subjects to future ad-
dresses. -..
Causes of advanced. taxes in recent
years were outlined by the governor
as follows: -.
High price OF labor and CONNIE
dities.
Expansion Of governmental fune-
tlons.
Public demand for better public
service, better educational faoiIl.
ties, better public buildings, better
health and sanitation regulations,
better roads, "better everything"
Salaries represent a very small
percentage Of the total public ex-
penses," the governor said. II they
were entirely wiped out the reduction
in taxes would be SO small as to be
scarcely noticeable OF the total gen
eral property taxes levied in 1921,
amounting to sos ,019, 1853, only $685..
k51 was levied for purely state pur-
poses, and of the latter amount ST.
S34,S32 was levied for soldiers bonuses.
Education Costs Advance.
The governor pointed out tax Ievies
for educational purposes in Minnesota
in 1921 amounted to 81. 569.23S, rep
resenting nearly 1914 cents of each
dollar paid or to be paid in taxes this
year. In 1911. he said. the cost per

SOVIETS SUFFER
STREET BANDITISM
Moscow No Safer Than New York or
Chicago-Highwaym Take
Victims Clothes -

MOSCOW. April 15-Soviet Russia
has been swept by. a wave of street
banditism that rivals recent crime cpl
denies in the United States
Until few months ago, Moscow sur
prised foreign visitors by the safety Of
its streets, even late. at night, but now is
'h6o safer tina N Kew KslBr Chicago
and the list Of crimes is growing steadily
while Petrograd. Odessa, kiev and other
cities are reported to be even worse.
Holdups, burglaries, murders in the
principal streets and battles with the
Moscow police have occurred in such
great numbers that the Moscow Soviet
has decreed that immediate steps shall
be taken to "liquidate" the situation:
.'Iiquidation' of such situations in
Russia generally means shooting on sight
of persons caught in the act of robber-
les, or speedy execution after conviction.
One issue of the newspaper Pravda
reported some - holdups, several burg
laries and the discovery of two bodies,
apparently of persons who had been
robbed. Killed and thrown into cellars.
Some of these affairs have occurred in
the principal streets.
Russian highwaymen generally take
not only the money, jewelry and watches
of their victims but also their outer and
sometimes inner clothes, leaving them 10
run home naked or nearly So. Clothing
is worth more than money in Russia.
Some OF the hlghWaymen, according TO
reports, adopt quite polite manners. At
Petrograd one bandit is said to have
stopped a number of men in the street,
asking them, politely, after pointing ut
their overcoats if they wished to buy
the garments.
why buy. 1t is mine already" the
victims would say
No" the robber replied. 1T is now
mine.
Emphasizing his remarks with a re-
yolver, the robber generally sold" his
victims coats back TO them for 1000. 900

tins asking Have you seen a police

ances in the negative. he said, We'll,
