FARM RELIEF PLANS

While the plans of the Federal Farm Board are
still in the making, some indication of the methods
to be pursued have been disclosed during the last
two weeks which of interest to farmers, well
as to the general public.
In the first place, it has been made plain that
the funds authorized for farm relief will be loaned
only to cooperative marketing organizations formed
by the farmers themselves, with the moral support
and advice of the Farm Board.
Even these organizations will be expected to try
to finance themselves through regular banking chan
nels, when it is possible to do at reasonable in
terest rates. before applying to the board for loans
1t is also evident that the board will expect the
existing farm organizations to lay aside their diff
ferences, where differences exist, and cooperate
with each other in the marketing of any certain
commodity before seeking federal loans
In other words, it does not likely that the
various existing farm bodies, such the Farm Bur-
eau Federation National Grange Farmers Union and
others, will be recognized such for loan purposes
but that where these organizations operate in the
same territory they must cooperate far market
ing is concerned
One trouble with organized farming in the past
has been that there have been several different ma
tonal organizations often working cross purposes
while business and industry have generally had a
single national organization to represent each par
tcular commodity interest.
If the farm relief act shall be the means of caus-
ing the farmers of the country really unite for
their own protection and benefit it will be a long
step toward a solution of the farm problem.

the previous year. The figures are
1927, $5,731, 81 ~, and 1928, $2.51O,-
559.49. On the other hand, the tot
al taxes collected for interest and
principal on state loans, showed an

$480. 003.O4, last year.
Townships, School Districts
Township taxes in Minnesota,
started with but $273, 111.75, in 1870
(this amount being levied exclus-
lively for revenue purposes), have
been increasing ste.dily, until today
the munificient sum of $9,648, 683. go
is collected in township excuses. In
1880, taxes aggregating H,365.29, al
so were levied for bonds and inter-
est, other than state loans, and the
total taxes, that year, were 1921. 842-
O3. Taxes for township road and
bridge GAIT, 1899, poor fund (37,-
1920, and other taxes ($34, 981 81
were added, and the total levy for
that period amounted to 1851 40

ces of township income from taxes
was in 1915, under the heading of
interest and principal on state loans
The excuses levied that year totaled
S., 359, 9O4.8O.
The extent of taxes levied by the
various school districts of Mime
sofa was $766,O18.9O, in 1870, as
compared with $42, 464,2O1. 70, for
last year." In 1870, there were only
two sources of revenue, namely, the
local mill tax 64,637.76, and spec
ial taxes, COL 1881. ID The first addi-
ton hetherto was made in 1899
when the sum Of $102, 1927 was lev
led for interest and principal other
than state loans. Total excuses for
that year aggregated $4,190, 403 81
as the local one-mill tax netted
$583, 941.57, and the special taxes
3,503, 474.83. Following the inaug.
! uration of state loans to school dis.
tricts, taxes with which to pay the
principal and interest on this in
debtedness were first collected il
1915, when they amounted to $50,
250.33. For that year, taxes total
ing $14,517, 1888, the other items
besides interest and principal OF

years ago, indeed, State Historical build
ing was erected on one side of this plaza,
erected of solid granite at great cost,
good-sized building in fact, but not large in
appearance when compared with the capitol.
Now that the state is to erect an office
building st. Paul wants the structure placed
on the opposite side of the plaza, TO bal
ance" the Historical building and to carry
out the Cass Gilbert plan.
The plan is a noble one and certainly
ought to be carried out some day. But the
citizens of the state should not too quickly
jump at the conclusion that any building
which the state puts up should be placed up
on that location.
An office building upon this site in front
of the state capitol and opposite the Historical
building would be something like putting the
barns and stable of noble mansion out in
front of it. An office buildings first of all
utility building It's principal purpose is util-
ity. It should be placed where it will be most
convenient for those who use 1.-THE de-
partments of state and the people who do
business with those departments.
Minnesota at present has it's various de-
partments and commissions scattered all over
st. Paul. The new office building is for the
purpose of gathering these departments to-
gether under one roof. It will take a big
building to do that a building almost as large
in cubic content as the state capitol itself.
We submit to candid citizens of the state
that such a building down in front of the
capitol would be entirely out of place, that
it would not carry OUT the Cass Gilbert
plan but destroy it. That the Historical
building it is supposed to balance would be
like pewee in comparison. That it's size
would be such as to almost overshadow the
capitol ITSELF
New York, also, is building right now
another office building in it's back yard an
office building 33 stories high which so
bulges up above the capitol skyline that if
big wind should ever blow it down it would
smash the capitol to smithereens.
The site which ST. Paul is so insistently
demanding has just about everything to
condemn it for state office building. 1t de-
stroys the capitol setting and the Cass Gilbert
plan. It is expensive. 1t is of an awkward
shape. It is difficult of access from the
capitol. Street cars screech up and down
Wabasha Hill in front of it. 1t is lower
than the capitol, multiplying engineering
problems. It has no convenient vacant land,
multiplying parking problems. Et cetera, ct
cetra, ct cetra.
We might stand the expense and put up
with the inconvenience, we might stuff cot
ton in our ears and walk mile to park the
car, but to ruin the noble setting of the cap
itol, to spoil the beautiful Cass Gilbert plan
of capitol mall with huge office building
is unthnkable
