Atlanta Newspaper Says

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 1.-THE Atlanta

imperial emperor and founder Of the
Ku Klux Klan and Edward Young
Clarke, imperial giant, had been

High Klan officials could not be

cording to the journal confirmation
of the report that Col. Simmons and
Mr.. Clarke have been ousted came
from persons closely identified with
Mr.. Evans.
The banishment, according to the
newspaper, was a sequel to the fight
waged against DR.. Evans and his
regime by Simmons and Clarke,
reaching climax recently when
Clarke directed letter to President
Coolidge asking that steps be taken
to reform Certain element" in the

TAX INCREASE
IN CITY TOLD
TO ENGINEERS
L. A. Baker, Deputy State
Tax Commissioner, Analy-
zes Situation in Bismarck
TWO GENERAL CAUSES
Principal Cause in City Levy
Increase Water Works
Bonds, He Asserts

An analysis Of the causes Of in
creased taxes in the city of Bismarck
was presented to the local chapter
of the American Association of En-
gineers at dinner meeting at the
Mckenzie hotel last night by Lyman
A. Baker, deputy state tax commits
sioner. After outlining the increas-
ed tax burdens for the state as a
whole for the last several years, Mr..
Baker discussed the city of Bis
marck in particular. He said:
''You perhaps are more intere sted
in why your taxes in the city of
Bismarck have increased during the
past year, than any other phase of
this subject. l have outlined to
some extent the causes for general
increases in taxes IN the past few
years. / will now endeavor to point
out the cause Of the increase in taxes
levied on property in the city Of Bis
marck in the year 1923 as compared
with the year 1922. Before touch
ing on the sad side of this question,
= will point out few bright spots
in local tax levies as compared with
tax levies generally in the state.
"The total taxes levied on all tax
able property in the state in 1929
amounted to $46.72 per capita, and in
the city Of Bismarck s37.43 per cap
ita. The total amount of school
taxes levied in the state in 1922
amounted to $21.29 per capita, and in
the city of Bismarck $16.02 per cap
ita.
Two Reasons
"Therc were two general causes OF
increase in tax levies in Bismarck
in the year 1928. (D The changes
in the assessment and taxation laws
made by the 1928 legislative assembly
caused large amount of property
which has heretofore been exempt,
or partially exempt, to be placed on
the tax list, and this property be-
came subject to state and county
taxes. (2) There was a large in
crease in local tax levies in the year
1928 as compared with the year 1922.
The county tax levy, including the
county tuition tax, increased approx
imately 90 per cent. City taxes in
creased 31.7 per cent and school
taxes 16 per cent
The increase in dollars for various
purposes was
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1924-01-11

The principal cause of the increase
in city taxes in Bismarck was on ac-
count Of sinking and interest fund
levies in connection with water work
bonds. understand that the city
commission expects the water plant
to carry this item of expense in fu-
ture years. The increase in school
taxes is equally distributed between
the general school levy and sinking
and interest fund levy. The increase
in the county tax levy, and to a
smalled valuation in the country and
a larger valuation in the city Of Bis
marck.
Per Capita Tax
"The per capita total taxes in Bis
marck increased from $37.43 in 1922
to s46.32 in 1923, and the per capita
school taxes from $16.02 to $500.
The tax burden in Bismarck this
year is high. The burden is largely
local, however, as only &C cents out
of each dollars goes to the state.
Approximately 1914 cents out of each
dollar goes to the county, BAT cents
to the city, and 1913 to city schools" )"
General Increase
The chief causes for the increase
in taxes in the last few years is in
creased cost of labor, commodities
and capital required in the govern
ment together with increased func-
tions and activities of state and local
governments, Mr.. Baker declared.
"A comparison of tax levics in the
last decade as compared with the pre-
yious decade is rather startling"
Mr.. Baker said. ''The total general
property taxes levied for all purposes
in North Dakota in the decade of
1903 to 1912 inclusive, amounted to
$78.574,253. The total taxes levied
in the last decade, 1913 to 1922 in
elusive, amounted to $214,857,562.
The increase over the previous de-
cade was $136,283,S0g. The percent
age increase was 173.45 percent.
"The per capita tax for all pur-
poses in 1902 amounted to $11.31 and
in 1922 the per capita tax for all
purposes amounted to S46.72. The
percentage increase per capita in the
twenty year period is 313 percent.
"From the year 1914 to 1922, COM
modify costs increased faster than
the cost of government up to the
year 1919. Since that time, COM
modify costs have Jagged behind in
creases in the cost Of government.
The present cost of government as
compared with 1914 is greatly in
excess Of the increased cost of living
and commodity costs. Consequently,
our excessive tax burden cannot be
