lens discussed by number of city
officials of the state, meeting here
yesterday afternoon and last night.
While the revenue has been taken
away, the cities still are required to
inspect dance halls and other places,
1T was stated.
The officials also discussed she tax
limitation law under which they now
are operating. This law, they said
has resulted in a number of cities
going in the red" in the last two
years. They also discussed the road
poll tax. which is being collected in
different ways in different counties
and cities, and generally yielding
/ little revenue.
Tax Commissioner Converse dis.
cussed his plan for putting cities on
cash basis by permitting them t.
issue certificates of Indebtedness in
anticipation of taxes, rather than in
terestbearing warrants.

half of our annual crop and could

I'm this connection it should be
remembered that while" our wheat
enters the world market as wheat
we are fortunate in the production
of two groups of wheat, both of
which should and can easily COM
mand a special market. Our hard
spring wheat is not just common
wheat. It should command a special
price and doubtless it would if our
growers were organized to demand
it. So, it is with our Durum. These
three states produce nearly all of
the Durum grown in the United
States. 1t should and could command
a better price if we were organized
to place it properly on the market"

of the state is too low, Mr.. Divet
said. 1t is now 10 per cent of cur
rent and z per cent on time deposits.
1t is lower yet in national banks, he
said, but this because of the facl
that national banks can raise their
reserve almost instantly through dis
counts with federal reserve banks.
State bank members of the federal
reserve can do the same, he said, so
that it might be we'll if there were
legislation to make different con-
dition regarding state banks which
are in the federal reserve. Any re-
quired raising Of the cash reserve
ought to be gradual, he said.
