CAN'T STOP ON
new BRIDGE
Got to See Moonlight From
Some Other Point, Police
Hold

Its all right to view the moonlight
over the Missouri, but not from an
automobile standing in the new Mis-
souri river bridge. The police ban
this, and made one arrest last night
of an autoist alleged to be driving
with spotlight on and stopping on
the bridge.
The explanation for the action is
that there is danger Of accidents if
cars are stopped on the bridge.
i. The bridge also presents other
problems to the police. Bismarck po-
lice agree they have authority out
to the middle Of the bridge but not
beyond.And if they start chasing a
speeder and don't get his number
they'll probably stop at the half way
point. There is already the sugges-
tion made of "a. joint patrol of Bis
marck and Mandan police, or Nor
ton county authorities, SO no 6 Is
can run out of danger of the law
Complaints have come to The Tri-
bune that two or three accidents
have narrowly been averted in Bis
marck because of, improper lights at
street intersections or no lights at
all, in the congested district. In
some places, it is said, lights are
placed away from the street inter-
sections and drivers have just es-
capped accidents at street crossings
because they are 50 dark that they
cannot see other cars. { :

Governor Explains Idea to
The County Auditors in
Session Here .75''
LAND VALUES TALKED

Use of the farm loan department
of the Bank Of North Dakota by the
state board of equalization in check
ing values of farm lands in various
parts of the state probably will be
made, Governor Nestos told county
auditors Of the state in meeting
here with Tax Commissioner C. C.
Converse and members of the state
board of equalization.
The theory advanced is that valu-
able information as to actual values
of farm lands is in the hands of the
state department.. including a mans
own estimate Of the value of his
land, the estimate of an appraiser
and usually Of others. The auditors
were informed by the Governor that
it was not the intention of the board
necessarily to absolutely take such
figures but to use them in its equal
ization work. {#
County auditors. in most. of the
counties Of the state made state
ments to the state board giving
their ideas as to the proper values be
placed this year by the state board.
Most of the auditors urged that. no
change be made from the present
values as certified to the state
board. ....
W. r. Tucker, auditor of Cass
eounty; Andrew Blewett, auditor of
Stutsman county and Hans Ander-
son, auditor of Grand Forks coun-
ty, all asserted to the state board
that farm lands in their counties
were assessed too high as compared
to the assessment on farm lands in
other parts Of the state. Auditor
Felson of Pembina county made a
similar protest.
Mr.. Tucker, after urging his point,
listened to the description of the as
sessments in Richland county by
Auditor Burton with respect to GER
tain portions of the.county which
he said were over-assessed, and then
told the state board that in compari-
son two townships bordering on
Richland county and also one border
ing on Barnes county were assessed
too high. - -,
Shift of the burden of taxation
to the farm lands from other class
cs of property was touched upon
some auditors, who urged greater
upon some other classes
Horizontal raises made by the state
board last year in some towns were
protested. The board was informed
that in two towns, the board last
year made a horizontal raise which
put the assessed value of vacant lots
so percent above sael value. The
auditor of Walsh county asked the
state board to cut the real estate
certified to it 20 per-
cent.
Andrew Blewett of jamestown, ad-
dressing the, board, opened his plea
by saying: "Gentlemen, what this
board did to Stutsman county last
year was plenty" '.
He explained that land in western
Stutsman county was assessed $50
an acre while the kind of land in
Kidder county, bordering county,
was assessed at SIS an acre. The
state board last year, he,said, raised
the Stutsman county assessment 25
percent. This year, he said, the
county board spent three weeks in
going over the values of the county
and he believed that they had re-
ported to the state board fair as
and they should not be
changed. He especially asked that
nothing be done to increase the
burden on the two western tiers OF
of the country.
