TAXES
MUCH LARGER
DURING 1925
S2OO. 600 More Has Already
Been Collected This Year
Than During 1924

The state of North Dakota has this
year collected 100000 more in in
come taxes than the total collected
during 1924, according 10 State Tax
Com missioner r. II. II. Thoresen.
under whose Jun isdiction the income
tan department il placed. During the
year 1924 the total income taxes col
lcctcd in the state was S302,0O0
while more than 100000 have al
ready been collected in 1925 state in
come taxes.
Two reasons are advanced by Mr..
ThoreseN for this exceptionally large
increase. One is the continually in
creaSing prosperity Of the state, re-
sulting in larger incomes for al
most everyone and consequently a
larger income tax. The other is that
fewer taxpayers have evaded pay
mcnt Of their state income tax dur
ing the current year than during
years past.
$4,000 already Collected
The income tax department has
since December | collected over S1O,-
600 in unpaid income taxes for the
years 1923 and 1924. Mr.. Thoresen

missioner obtained from. the fed
cral income tax bureau at Washing
ton a complete list &c North Dakota
people who made federal income re-
turns in 1923 and 1924. These lists
we're checked against lists Of those
who made state income reports, and
it was found that there were several
thousand people in the state who
should have made state reports and
paid state income taxes, according to
their federal reports, but had not
done so.
Beginning December l, the bureau
has been holding hearings in vari-
Gus cities throughout the state. at
which persons who should have made
reports but failed are asked to pres
ent themselves and give explana-
tions. Two hundred forty-eight Bis
marck citizens were found to be
delinquent in their 1923 and 1924
state reports and three-doy hear
ing will be concluded at the capitol

to appear. Most OF them answered
the call. W. II, Patrick, tax super
The Bismarck tribune., 1925-12-23

Most Of the delinquents in the va
rious cities have pleaded either for
getfulness or ignorance of the state
income tax law, Mr.. Thoresen states.
All that is being asked of them is
that they make the proper reports
for 1928 and 1924 at this time and
pay the regular taxes due. and no
penalty is being added in any cases
where the delinquent taxpayer shows
a reasonable willingness to comply
with the law. A penalty can be add
ed. according to law, however. and
this will be done in eases where the
taxpayer fails to appear after being
summoned ar takes an arrogant at.

brighter than any season that "a.
NOUS organization has faced since
the days Of Doctor Karl Muck. Tor

proving Inadequate to the demand
Of the public. both IN Boston and
New York.
The waiting list of applicants Tor

humber OF 1 900 names. The total
number Of concerts to be given in
Greater Boston this season has been
increased to seventy three by the
addition Of d new historical series,
as compared with a total OF fifty.

This demand Is largely due to the
extraordi binary genius ct Serge KOl1s.

the orchestra, who IS now beginning
his second season In America. Kotis-
sevftzky was first famous Iii Europe
as a virtuoso Of the doub1ebass Asa

which he could elicit from this uil-
usual Instrument

In his capacity Of conductor In
Paris he inaugurated his series Of
