TAX MIDDLE
MAY RESULT
IN TWO BILLS
Majority Sentiment of Joint
Committee FavOrs Intro.
ductiOn of Two Bills

Two bills will probably be sub.
mitted to the legislature in an ef.
fort to clear up the situation re-
sulting from the supreme courts de.
cision that the Bank Of North Dako-
Ia is liable for unpaid taxes on lands
taken through tax deeds, Senator r.
I. kretschmar, Mcintosh county. said
today.
Senator Krctschmar is chairman of
the joint house and senate commit
tee appointed to study what legisla-
tive action may be necessary, follow
ing Il special message to the legisla-
ture from the industrial commission
last week.
The committee, meeting in closed
sessions, expects to conclude its work
and announce its decision tonight,
Kretschmar said.
He said that he was not positive
that legislative action would be re-
quired, but stated that "it seems to
be the sentiment Of the majority, of
the committee so far to draw up two
measures" He indicated that there
Is also possibility Of divided
report, with the minority flatly OPP
posed to any legislative action.
Supply Bills Approved
The house appropriations commit
tee cleaned its slate Of number
Of supply bills this morning. The
only clash came on a bill asking $lO,-
600 for a survey Of the Mouse river.
The majority report favors indefi-
mite p0stponement.
A bill appropriating $4,000 for
societies was killed,
while number of small appropriations
were recommended for passage.
Heavy Programs Today
Both the senate and house face
long calendars this afternoon, with
expected fights on flour label bills
and the measure repeating the law
prohibiting the sale of snuff in the
spotlight.
The house flour label bill, origin
ally drawn to conform with recon-
mcndations made by Governor A. G.
Sorlie, has been amended until the
forces are strongly
opposed to it. 1t will come before
he house when it resolves itself into
l committee of the whole. As it now
stands, Governor Sorlie has stated
hat he will veto it.
In the senate another flour label
,ill, which has the approval of the
governor, will be the subject of an
clash on the floor when the !
tate affairs committee submits q |
divided report. Anti-administration
'orces will probably fight the meas
ire bitterly in the senate.
The snuff bill will also come be-
fore the house committee OF the
Whole. Temperance societies and |
'ther groups have flooded the house
With petitions against THE bill, and |
mother hot fight is in prospect.

ing in Fargo

Eleven North Dakota farmers were
successful in producing 5000 pounds
Of pork or more during 1926 from,
one litter of pigs in $50 days, accord.
ing to George J. Baker of the North
Dakota Agricultural college, secrc
tary Of the State Livestock Breeders

Of Walcott, Vernon Stadig of Esmond
and Wesley Bruins of Oriska.
Winners in the contest were pre-
scented with gold medals at the meet
ing of the North Dakota Livestock
Breeders association held last week
at the Agricultural college. This is
the third year that a ton litter con.
test has been conducted, and the
number of winners this year is equal
to the combined total for the last two
years.
Smith Bros. of Sheycnne, Eddy
county, produced the heaviest litter,
10 Duroc Jerseys, weighing 1886
pounds. He was followed closely by
Harley Swanson, Paramount, Richland
county, a boys and girls club men,
Der, whose litter Of II Duroc Jerseys
weighed 2,29l pounds.
Other winners were as follows:

From the time Of narrowing, about
30 filters were entered in the con.
test, according to Mr.. Baker. County
extension agents coopcratcd in this
project, the purpose of which is to
teach better methods of breeding,
feeding, care and management Of
hogs.
I'VE hope to make even a better
showing in the ton litter contest
next year." Mr.. Baker declares. 1.-THE
results last year were the best Of
any since the contests were started.
The fact that the IL ton litters were
produced in 10 widely scattered
counties in the state shows that it is
possible to raise hogs profitably in
practically all parts of North Dako-
ia, and that it is not necessary to
confine this enterprise to our corn
belt section in the southwestern part
of the state"

Plan to Perpetuate
Cory of Swedes in
Upbuilding America

Chicago, H.. Feb. -tR-Swedish-
Americans have launched campaign
to perpetuate the glory that men of
swedish blood had in upbuilding the
American republic.
Three centuries ago in March, two
small ships sailed up the Delaware
river. They had been outfitted by the
swedish government and their COM
mander, Peter Minuit. was commits
stoned to establish a Swedish colony
in the new world.
The colonists landed at q point
near Wilmington, Della. and settled
there and in Philadelphia. The cam
paign is to obtain funds to complete
projects startc! in Philadelphia and
establish others in that section.
John Morton was one Of the Swed-
lsh heroes Of the country's struggle
Tor existence, and the John Morton
Memorial Building in Philadelphia
has been partially constructed. 1t is
planned to complete it.
The plans also contemplate the
erection of the John Morton Memorial
Chapel in 1927, the 15Oth anniversary
OF his death; celebration in 1888 of
the $50 anniversary Of the death of
John Hanson, also an early Swedish
hero. and the establishment of a New
Sweden Memorial Park in Whining
ton, on the land where the Swedes
built their first fort and erected
their first log cabins.
Morton cast the decided vote for
the declaration Of independence. and
Hanson was president of the United
States on Congress assembled"
The whole project will cost $780,
600.
Minuit Immediately began laying a
foundation for New Sweden, as the
colony was called. He constructed
Fort Christina, named in honor Of the
Swedish queen, and made provisions
for the erection of homes.
Other ships arrived from the moth
er country from time to time with
more settlers and when New Sweden
was coded to Holland, the country
around the Delaware river was dotted
with settlements and fortresses.
Representatives of all Swedish
American organizations, religious and
secular. in the country, met here last
fall and decided upon the program Of
commcmOration.
