AMERICANS AHEAD
 AT SOCCER GAME
St, Louis Man Voices His Opinion
 Regarding Game in England

St, Louis, Mo-, April S.--That Eng land, the cradle of soccer football has been outstripped by America in this sport, is the belief of Thomas W. Ca hill. founder Of soccer in the United States.
 Mir Cahih, who is secretary of the United States Football association, which controls soccer in this country. suggested that all-star elevens of both countries meet either in the United States or abroad to decided the cham pionship and settle the question of soccer supremacy between the two countries.
 Discussing the merit Of the Amcri- can style of soccer as played by Am erican born players. Cahil stated that America was about ready to pass the old country in playing this game, which was imported from the British Isles.
 FayQrS Americans to Win.
 "I believe" he continued, that l could pick team of American born players that could defeat any All-Brit- ish team today"
 When the Third Lanark team came to the United States last year for a tour of this country, it was made up of picked internationalsts-a strong combination. Yet one of our teams in the east, not a champion, played the Britons to a standstill.
 ''I made the suggestion to the I.an. ark manager that VIC could beat Eng land, and then I made him this offer: To pick an All-America team to play picked British team. l agreed to play abroad if the Britons would guar antee our expenses, or l would guar to this country if they cared to do that. He has not accepted the pro- position
 Such game ought to be played abroad because of the immense inter- est that would be created In Eng land the international cup ties draw crowds of more than 100, ,000-twice still stand ready to go and believe the United States would win.
 Gone Back in England.
 They have stood still in England or gone back. The United States is still inferior in finesse, as the Britons are past masters at trapping and con trolling the ball. But a team of '1A second men breaks up this combina- ton. In America the game is played in high for the entire contest, where as in England they want to relax In goal shooting, speed, aggressveness and other factors America is c, ,al to or better than the old country today.
 This opinion is shared in Sweden. Norway and Denmark, elevens from which countries have met football teams from this country and from the ties long ago told me that America had outstripped England in football strength. I believe it."
 Could Pick Good Team
 Mir. Cahill also expressed the opin- ion that picked team from St. Louis could fill the All-American require ment, although he said many fine Am veloped in the east. The Sculln team of St. Louis hold the championship of America.
 Paying a tribute to England as the home of soccer, Mir. Cahill concluded.
 The United States owes a great debt to the old country boys who in the past have taught us the funda- mentals and who are responsible in part for the present standing of the game in this country. There are many wonderful old country players on teams in the United States today. But think the American Eaglets are about ready to quit their nests'

CLASSIFY ! LAND [.
Tax Commissioner Doubts il
Others Will Attempt To
Do So This Year :

Dunn county 10 the only county In
the state that has entered into. q con-
tract for the classification of land un-
der the statute enacted by the last
legislature, Tax Commissioner G. C..
Converse said today. He doubted If
any more counties would attempt the
classification this year because Of the
desire for economy in most counties.
Assessors, who are starting their work
in the state today, will operate along
lines formerly observed.
Among the rulings made by the tax
commissioner in his instructions to
assessors Is that the real test of value
Is what property would sell for un-
der ordinary circumstances, not under
a forced sale. Variods interpreta-
.tions have been placed upon the value
Of a property by assessors.
The tax commissioner has instruct
ed assessors that in case Of resi-
dence located in what may be c0nsid-
cred the business district Of city or
town, the lot may be assessed upon its
value as business property and in this
case the house shall be assessed at a
value based on the necessity of NOV
ing it to permit business building to
be erected.
The tax commissioner has ruled that
apartment houses are entitled to be
classed as residential property for the
purposes of assessment and to receive
the exemptions allowed for residential
property.

The primary election ballot in
North Dakota will have the smallest
number of measures to be voted upon
by the people of any election in the
last three elections. When the time
for filing petitions for initiated laws
ended last night there were petition
ers on file sufficient, to put but two
measures on the ballot.

preme court, which caused consider
able comment in the state and which,
according to financial men, were the
cause OF some alarm by outside in
vestors, will not go before the peo-
pie.
Judge Robinson, asserting that he
had received about 5000 signatures to
the petition, said that objections of
investors caused sufficient opposition
to prevent 10000 signatures, the re-
quired number, being obtained on any
proposed measure.

Robinson were: (1) To repeal the
'.dog tax" on lawyers; (2) To repeal
the pool hall inspection statute; (3)

Richholt school is now a carefully
guarded school. Someone entered the
building, rifed the desks of the teach

left in them and toleovirtually all of

would be able to enter the building at
any time with the keys, excepting the
rear door, the front door has been
barred. In the morning the janitor
must open the rear door and then the

venti0ns to be Held Soon

The call for the jamestown conven-
tion, which includes the endorsement
OF three candidates for supreme court,
and the endorsement by the NOnpar-
tisan league convention of three can
didates, has brought forth consider
able opposition to bringing judges in
to the political arena in the primary.
One state official, whose name prob
ably will go before the Jamestown
convention for denomination, said to-
day that he had received 25 or 30 let
ters from persons protesting at the
inclusion ty Burleigh Spaldtng OF
nominations for supreme court judges
in the business of the convention.
These people, the official said, COM
plain that the judges are on nonpo-
lltical ballot and that for either the
Nonpartisans or the jamestown con-
vention to bring them into a political
fight is not in accord with good prin-
ciples of government nor OF the con-
stitution Of the state.
The offices of judge of the supreme
court and superintendent of public in
struction were taken out Of politics in
order to prevent the nominations be-
ing subjected to convention log-roll-
ing or. their offices to political admin
istratiOn.
Miss Fanny C. Anidon, endorsed by
the Nonpartisan league convention at
Fargo for the position of superintend-
ent of public instruction, will not be
a candidate, according to a statement
made by her today. Miss Amidon,
whose home is in Valley City, is sis
ter of Federal Judge Amidon. Miss
Amidon said she was not taking part
in politics and was not a candidate.
She said she had not given permission
for her name to be used.
