while their mother was downtown

Both children are firm believers in

Santa Claus. Naturally, talk was
of Christmas and Christmas only.
Presently Alberta asked. Aunt
Ruth, is there just one Santa Claus
or whole lot of Santas?"
Before Aunt Ruth had chance
to answer Thelma, who already
boasts of two years in school, as
serted: "Of course, there are more
than one Santa Claus; because if
there was only one, he would be
called Santa Clau.'"

That memory sometimes would re-

With hopeful hearts-we only hear
The chit-chat of bunch OF

Minot, N. D., March lO.-LP)---
Pointing out that the difference be-
tween taxation and no taxation is
the difference between civilization
and savagery.' T. H. H. Thoresen,
state tax commissioner, explained the
workings Of the states taxing svs-
tenn to delegates to the state tele-
phone convention which opened here
yesterday.
Discussing the states taxation
problems, Thoresen pointed out that
the proper adjustment of the tax bur-
den is a difficult task since so many
factors enter into the situation.
Taxes, he said, should be assessed on
the principle of ability to pay, es-
tablished early in history as the
proper basis for all taxation. That
h@ been the theory in North Dakota
as indicated by the laws on the sta
tute books hut to some extent the
actual practice has been the direct
opposite, ThOrescn said.
Pointing out that taxes arc of two
kinds, direct and indirect, the speak
or defined the indirect tax as the
alleged "painlcss" procedure Of, levy
ing on the manufacture or sale sof an
article, the cost Of which is ultimate
" passed OH to. the corAumer. Al
though favored by many because pay
ment is not noticed by the person
paying It, the Idea is wrong. Thoresen
contended, because it shifts the hur-
den from those best able, to pay TO
those least able to hear the burden.
The direct tax is levied against
the person and property Of the tax
payer and is the most common and
the most difficult to administer fair
" and equitably, the speaker said.

RAPID DEVEL LOPMENT OF ELECTRICAL

Minot. n. D., March lO.--LP)-Sev-
enty-five years hence western North
Dakota. will be the heart Of great
industrial empire with coal from it's
mines being turned into electric pow
err for a thousand industrial and
commercial uses. +. H. Morris, en-
gineer for the state railroad board,
told North Dakota telephone men at
their convention here today.
Discussing prospective advances in
the production and transmission Of
electricity, Morris said that the flu
ture will see abandonment Of the
great network of wires which now is
the transmission of electric power by
directive radio waves.
Increasing efficiency of >nlcctric
production will make II the cheapest

less. even those which are the center
of great industrial enterprises which
now blacken the sky with their
smoke.
{ Thousands of great air liners will
plow the air to all parts of the
wsrld," said Morris. "Thcy will be
controlled and driven by electrical
impulses derived from stations that
send them power through the air from
this giant network. Transportation
on the earth will move silently and
smokelcssly by the use of electrical
power. Large industrial cities

Gross Earnings Tax Suggested
Contending that a gross earnings
tax is the best substitute for the
present unsatisfactory method, Thor
esen said that under present laws q
mile Of telephone line in poor condi-
tion and Improbable is assessed the
same amount as mile Of telephone
line in good condition and making
lar0e profits. To remedy this situa-
tion, he said, wider spread has
been made on the valuation of COM
mercial lines in good condition and
the poorer lines. When he became
tax commissioner, the sneaker said,
he found that nearly 800 telephone
companies which were doing business
in the state had made no reports to
the state and were paying no tax.
This condition was remedied, he said,
by sending out field men to check up
on the properties. Since, whenever
one individual evades just assess
mcnt either in part or in whole,
corresponding increase is placed on
those who pay their share. Noresen
asked the telephone men to cooper
ate with his department in seeing
that all report who should.
The most general criticism against
taxation. he said. nre alleged in
equality Of assessments and taxa
