Nonpartisans in the legislature
are expected to discuss fully and de-

the next few days on the changes in
the industrial program laws recon-
mended to the legislature by Coy
ernor Nestos. No bills incorporat-
ing the proposals have yet been in
troduced, but may be within the next
week or so.
William Lemke, VINO was here at
the opening of the session, returned
again yesterday. Mr.. Lemke's pres
ence forecast detailed discussion of
the program.
Informally some Nonpartisans
have said that they do not oppose
changes in laws if the changes viii,
make the laws stronger. They will
oppose, they say, anything designed
to sap the spirit or vitality out of
the laws created during their re-
gime.
No serious division of opinion has
been expressed as yet on the subject
of non-political boards. Some Non
partisans are said to have leaned
with favor toward such handling OF
the affairs Of the mill and elevator
at Grand Forks. Others oppose any
change in the present law, which
would keep the control of the mill in
the hands of the Industrial Commits

CONTRACTS FOR
SCHOOL LAND
ARE CANCELLED
State Board of University and
School Lands Takes This
Action
AFFECTS MANY PERSONS
Cancellations Mostly of Spec
ulators, According to Land
Commissioner
AFFECTS MANY PERSONS

A large number of school land
contracts on which holders are de-
linquent for several years, have been
formally cancelled by the board of
university and school lands, it was
announced today. The board con-
sidered reports which have been in
preparation for the past few weeks,
at meeting held yesterday after
noon, and took final action.
Most of the contracts, it appears
from the records of the cancellations,
were held by non-residents of the
farms involved. Lands purchased
by land companies, non-residents of
the state, and bankers, merchants,
are included in the cancellations.
The boards action was to cancel
contracts on school lands sold by the
state. on which the purchaser was de-
linquent six years or more on inter-
est payments, and on which he had
not paid taxes for three years. On
delinquences on which taxes have
been paid regularly the board took
no action, holding this an indication
of good faith on the part of the pur-
chaser and indicating the delinquen-
cey was due to unfortunate circum-
stances.
There were 444 delinquencies Of
six years or more from which we're
selected those also three years or
more in arrears on taxes. Because
all reports asked for several weeks
ago from county treasurers on the
statues Of tax payments on the land
are not in yet, the exact number of
cancellations is not known at pres
ent.
In McHenry county, on which COM
plete reports were available, 10 can
cellations were made. Of this num-
ber nine contracts were held by the
Stubbins Land company, of Gran
vile; two by Towner bank; one By
IA merchant in Berwick, another by
Mr.. Wedge of Minneapolis and six
others whose business was not ap-
parent from the records.
The action of the board follows a
long investigation and effort starte
last summer to collect delinquences
on school lands. Interest on the
fund created from the sale of these
lands goes to the schools of the
state.
