rying an appropriation that appro-
priation should be reduced to the
lowest possible figure. Whatever of
these bills are passed by this legisla-
ture will increase the deficit already
mentioned.
Your committee, at the outset
was confronted with a condition
which showed that If the budget were
accepted as submitted, approved in
all respects and no additional appro-
priations made by the present session
of the legislature, the general fund
of the state would be, at the expira-
ton of the coming biennial period
between five and six hundred thOus-
and dollars, worse off than it is to-
day, assuming, for the purpose of
this statement. that the income from
state taxes will be the same for the
1926 as for the year 1925.
1.-The people of the state are ask
ing for the most rigid economy in
every department of the state and
are looking to US by our actions, to
give them some substantial relief"
, 1925-02-26

for an expenditure in that connec-
ton because of the lack Of funds.
The committee hopes that by thus
emphasizing this matter to the legis-
lature this condition will soon be
corrected. 1t has grown on us in
the past few years and in the inter-
est OF economy and for lack of funds
cannot well be corrected at this time.
1.-THE certificate Of the state audi
tor made to the state board of equal
ization, for the purpose Of fixing the
levy for the current year, showed a
substantial overdraft or deficit in
the general fund, an account of gen.
eral fund warrants outstanding, and
constituting a charge against the gen.
eral fund. The state board of equali-
cation made a levy Of LIS mills on
the dollar for 1924 as against a levy
made the preceding year OF 2.67
mills on the dollar. The levy of LIS
is wholly insufficient to. care for the
necessary operating expenses of the
state government during the coming
rear. We are therefore faced with
the prospect of a deficit in the gen.
eral fund which can be expected to
approximate the sum of $725,000 on
March 81, 1926, that date being the
end of the first year of the coming
biennial period. 1t is therefore es-
sential and necessary hat some poll
icy be adopted for the elimination of
this deficit. Manifestly, this cannot
be taken care of in a budget involv-
ing current receipts and eXpendi-
lures. and should be financed over a
period of years So as not to add a
serious burden to the taxpayers. A
bill for the purpose of eliminating
this deficit is now before this legis-
~lature, and provides a levy Of Y mill
for the purpose indicated. 1t is
thought that this will pay off the
Indebtedness in approximately eight
years as we'll as paying off the items
that are omitted from the budget
submitted, thereby putting the state
nee more on a sound financial basis.
= your committee asks the cooper
alton of this body in connection with
its program Of economy, calling at
tention especially to the fact that
there are several bills now pending
carrying s p eel appropriations.
These bills should be very earnestly
considered and where possible, ex-
p%enditures should be postponed to
some future time and where 1t is alb
solutely necessary to pass a bill car

When the refinery is operating at
full capacity, as many as $4,000 of
these bags are so processed in IA
twenty-four hour day. Yesterday a
group of school teachers from ar
ious districts in the West visited the
plant.
They were shown how these bags
are first dried in centrifugal ma
chimes, and then hung on slow travel
ing conveyors which carry them back
and forth across the ceiling of the
boiler house, thus drying them by
waste heat" A bag is approx
mately two hours in transit through
this heated atmosphere.
That modern industry is wise in
its utilization of every waste-saving
device is evident when it is con
sidered that with a melt of 1000 tons
a day there remains in the empty
bags approximately 10000 pounds of
raw uga which is removed by wash
ing in the laundry and recovered in
the form of "sweet water"

Cobb Made Statement
Regards Financia
Condition of State

CHEYENNE. WYO.. FEB. "a
Every wyoming taxpayer will be in
terested In the statement made by
Repfesantative VIM. Cobb, Republi-
can of Natrona County, with refer
ence to the financial condition of the
State of wyoming; when he intro
duced the Budget Appropriation bill
in the House of Representatives. The
statement follows:
Chapter 80, Wyoming Compiled
Statutes 1920, provided that bien-
nially the governor shall prepare
and submit for consideration to the
legislature, a budget and in conform
ity to the statute the budget has
been submitted to your committee on
ways and means, and for the purpose
of carrying into effect the appropria-
tions provided for in that budget,
house bill No. PIP is herewith pre-
scented for the consideration of the
legislature.
I'm submitting the budget, which
appears to balance, 1t is enormously
stated on page 4 that the income
from taxes for the biennial period
will be SS72,497.7O. The taxable
value of the state for 1924, was
s465,322,109.0O, the levy fixed by
the state board of equalization was
1.75 mills on the dollar, producing
~S14,327.00 instead of $872,497.70
as stated in the budget submitted.
In the budget submitted 1t is also
assumed that 100 per cent Of the
taxes assessed for the year 1925 will
be collected, whereas past experience
shows that not o. than 80 per cent
of the tai levied Is in fact collected
and available for use. In the budget
as submitted there Is therefore, a
discrepancy in the multiplication of
the value by the levy in the sum of
s5S,17O.70. and a further discrepancy
in that no allowance has been made
for uncollectable taxes. of which 10
per cent would be the sum of $751;
432.70, or a total of these two items,
in the sum of ,6O3.40, which,
assuming the same conditions exist in
the second year of the biennial per-
iod, would be nearly double II there
Is no increase in taxable valuation or
state
"The recommendations OF expen-
diture in the budget submitted ag-
gregate for n year $1,215,417.0S,
and on the basis Of computation here
in set forth the budget, instead OF
balancing. shows a deficit Tor the
first year OF the biennial period Of
~S139.6O3.4O. when submitted to your
committee.
: For reasons which are not ap-
rent to your committee there have
been omitted from the budget statu-
tory appropriation items aud neces-
sary expenditures as follows:
Legislative expense ----$ ~S6,731.12
Deficit state engineer 100000

not only further cement the feeling
of good will between the two nations
but will, 1t is believed, ultimately aid
in causing the lire to return to par.
1t will be noted that England in her
settlement with the United States, not
only won for herself many words of
praise but her action resulted in the
pound sterling being restored to par.

BELIEVED
SLAIN
BY Universal Service.

DUBUQUE, Iowa, Sept. 12.-The
body of n man. believed to be that of
George Anderson, escaped convict pal
of Gerald Chapman and slayer of Mr..
and Mrs. Ben Hance, is lying in a
morgue here today. ~
Height, weight, teeth, hair and
marks of Identification on the body
correspond with those of Anderson as
described in a circular sent out by the
federal prison at Atlanta. A tattoo
mark on the hand, the authorities de-
clarcd, elinches the Identification.
The man came here from Mason
City on August 10, five days after
Mr.. and Mrs. Hance were slain neat
their home at Muncie, Ind. He rented
a small house and lived alone. A few
days later he disappeared, leaving two
valises and a trunk behind.
The body was found in a clump of
weeds Tuesday and $500 which the
man was known to have had when he
came here, we're missing.
The effects left in the house failed
to yield any clue to the mans identity.
They contained clothing, flashlights,
files, canned fruit and a hairnet.
Definite Identification awaits the
check on the mans finserprints,
which have been sent to Atlanta.
