a permanent board. and any intelligent

that it is Indispensable
Adopted in ~ States
"Since the above was written The
number of states having tax commis-
sions has been increased to ~, and q
recent meeting of the National Tax
association not only reiterated its en-
dorsement of a permanent tax com
mission in each state, but it strongly
favored a commission of three mem

missioner type or the larger board
Our present governor has repeat
eddy made clear how earnestly he de-
sired the creation of a tax commits
sion, and how hopeless it is to make
progress in settling Montana's taxation
difficulties without one.
I'm conclusion l would call attention
to the fact that all the big corpora
tions of this and other states find it
wise and profitable t employ tax ex-
perts. 1t would seem to be the part OF
wisdom to have a few tax experts to
look after the states interests.

Good Crowd Is Out
To Hear Democrats
At Neihart Rally

Despite the rain thatmade roads
difficult, a successful democratic rally
was held by the county party Friday
night at Neihart. There was a good
attendance and the visiting candidates
and party leaders were greeted with
enthusiasm.
The talks were made by candidates
and dealt largely with state and county
issue. Questions of special interest to
the voters were discussed and the po-
sition of the democratic candidates
outlined.
Two cars of Great Falls men went
TO Neihart to attend the rally and
meet voters of the district.
The voters of Black Eagle will gath
err tonight in q rally to be held at the
Gerraania hotel. Frank Dorick will
act as chairman and candidates of the
party in the coming election will
speak. Many of the party members
from Great Falls will attend the meet
ing and will discuss political questions
and problems with the voters of that
district.

SHORT BALLOT
TO BE- PASSED.
BACKER THINKS
Beaverhead Senator Finds
Favorable Sentiment in
North Tier.

Voters of the state are uniting in
their support of the amendment to the
state constitution permitting changes
in state laws to meet conditions pre-
scented by individual counties and cities
of the state in their administration,
according to Frank A. Hazelbaker of
Dillon. state senator from Beaverhead
county, who was in the city Sunday in
the interest of the amendment.
In considering the proposed
amendment" he said, Il find that too
many voters look at only one phase of
it. They regard the consolidation plan
which will permit better administra-
ton in Butte and Silver Bow county
as the principal part Of the amend
ment. This part is important in it
self. But this bill also holds forth the
possibility of other changes in state
laws that will affect many of the
counties of the state.
Would Help East Counties
Especially is this true of several
small counties Of the eastern part of
the state where adverse business con
ditions have produced an excessive
mount of taxation and have made the
old forms Of government too ungainly
for present conditions. The new
amendment would permit these counties
to adjust their administration to CON
ditions. The entire amendment per
mits an elasticity in governmental af-
fairs that is highly desirable at this
time. So apparent is the need of this
amendment that it has obtained the
support of both parties and virtually
everyone interested in better and more
efficient local government.
THE amendment specifically pro
vides that it cannot affect in any way
any county not desiring to come under
it's provisions or terms. Changes in
city or county government can only
be made with the majority vote of the
persons within the area concerned.
This is a safeguard that does not
permit the use of the amendment or
laws passed under it to harm n
locality.
Meets Favorable Voters
MY present trip to northern Mon
ANA was taken in connection with
business interests and | have taken
advantage of it to feel out the senti-
ment with regard to the amendment,
which, as one interested in Montana
government, [ am eager to see pass.
The response everywhere is entirely
favorable to the amendment and there
seems little doubt but that it will
pass without opposition, except, per
haps. from those who do not under
stand either its form or the need"
Hazelbaker is a holdover senator in
the state senate. He says that gen
eral business conditions in the south
crn part of the state are good, largely
Il result of the improvement in the
sheep industry. A large amount of
the stock will be held over for winter
feeding because of the good fodder
and forage crops.

Augusta Man
 Admits Guilt
 In Theft Case

Augusta, Ga, June 9-The same old story-a trusted ernpIoye taking a 1y- CT on the market, losing, and Dor rowing" company funds to cover his losses-Was revealed here when Leland c. Adams, former sales man. ager for ths Seacoast Fertilizer Con1~ pany of New York, pleaded guilty to eIn bezzlenent.
 Adams told the court that his de- falcation resulted from playing the market. His first shortage came about when he borrowed $350 from a, local bank to play the cotton market. He lost and took the companys money to meet the note, he said.
 Adams never won a bet, he said. He always played the long side of thsi market and was wiped out each tine4
 Twelve months ago Adams con- fessed to a shortage of 10,SO1.24. After spending five months in jail he was released on bond and went to Atlanta in an effort to arrange g. settlement with the bonding company. He offered $500 in cash, a deed to g. lot in Wilmington, N. C., and a note for S1,000 signed by leading business men. The company insisted on pay ment of $2,5O0 in cash.
 Judge Hammond instructed Adams to resubmit his offer. Unless it is accepted he will have to serve an additional seven months in jail.
 Adams has a wife and two children who. he told the court, are entirely dependent on him for support.
