LAND VALUES
OYER ST ATE
ARE TOO HIGH
County Auditors Ask Equal
izatiOn Board to Cut AS
SeSSed Valuation

Demand for reduction in the as
sessed valuation of farm lands in
various counties was made upon the
state board Of equalization today BY
various county auditors. And all of
.hem offered substantially the same
reason why reduction should be
made. 1t was that each particular
county is over-valued when compared
with other counties in the state.
In almost every instance the cOun
ty equalization boards have scaled
down the land valuation as compared
with the figure set by the state board
two years ago. The lone exception
appearing at this mornings session
was Mercer county. 1t is content to
let stand the valuation fixed two
years ago.
Decision to Come Later
Arguments will be heard by audi
tors from other counties this after
noon and the board will then take
the question of land assessments un-
der consideration for decision in the
future.
Little attention was given to per-
sonal property valuation this morn
ing, most auditors saying they are
content to leave the personal proper
ty schedules as they are. !.
Otto G. Kreuger, Wells county
auditor, objected that people in his
county have no more and no better
clothes than average citizens else
where and demanded q reduction in
that item. Last years schedule
showed the assessed valuation Of
clothing in Wells county to be $685.
900 as compared with only little
over 100000 in Barnes county and
$4,000 in Benson county.
Vacant Lots Unsaleable
Hopes Of persons who laid out num-
er0us small towns in the state are
fading, the auditors told the board.
In many cases they contended that
vacant lots in small towns are be-
ing turned back to the counties for
unpaid taxes because the assessments
are too high, the towns are not grow
ing and the lots are practically
worthless.
Valuation fixed when hopes of
building a metropolis ran high still
remain in some cases, the board was
county would rather keep them on
have them on its hands.
w. G. McConkey, auditor of Golden
Valley county, said vacant lots in
Beach are valued at $3.50 which beg
/ for buyers at IS and SO. The valu-
ations were fixed, he said, when
Beach boomers hoped to see the
flown become another Minneapolis
or st. Paul"
Kreuger and Chris J. Hill, auditor
| Of Mclean county, offered the same
obsefvations on some of the small
! villages in their counties.

HARRINGTON AGAIN
OPPOSESLANDDEAL
Hawaiian Governor Protests
Disposal of Army Property
to Private Interests.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Gov. harrington OF Hawaii again
has taken up with Secretary of War
Davis and general staff officers his
opposition to the transfer of Army
lands on the west coast of the Island
Of Oahu to private landowners in eX-
change for tracts needed by the war
Department in connection with mill
tary operations. The strip along the
beach of Waianae Bay, to which the
Territory is building a. highway from
Honolulu, is chiefly involved in the
problem.
The War Department has been
seeking additional camp sites and land
for other purposes. and considering
an exchange with the owners of the
10 plots. 1t desires certain portions
of the lands it now holds, including
strips of beach land at various places.
Governors Reasons for Protest.
Opposition of the governor to these
EXCHANGES is based on the contention
that much of the beach land of the
islands is already in private hands.
His visit TO the War Department was
to urge that these beach properties
be retained by the Government and
kept available for public use, and
Inal IHS department dSh AOASACSS
for appropriations to purchase such
additional lands as it may need.
War Department officials are SYM
pathetic with the governors views,
but realize that acquisition of private
lands by purchase would involve not
only probable long delay in getting
congressional sanction and appro-
priations, but also condemnation pro-
ceedings in some cases.
Authority Conferred by Law.
Under existing law. the department
may exchange lands which would
shorten the process materially, al
though it is recognized that, from a
financial standpoint. the Government
would be the loser, as the lands it
would exchange are of much greater
value than those it seeks to acquire.
The whole project involves acquisi-
ton of new lands valued at approxi-
mately $1,50O,000.
