D. Lawyer. 21O0 block Thirty,

Sapoznick, the court is told. The
partnership agreement was made
July 8, 1923 and each partner
was to operate one automobile
and pay his share of expenses
incident to operation of service
and the transmitting of telephone
calls.
Sapoznick is not carrying out
the "propolition" the other two
partners now complain, and in
as much as the office of the
company is in his home he has
the upper hand.
Through Attorney Foster Wood
Thomas and Lawyer say Sapoz-

Move Toward Utopia
Such a Utopia could never be
reached, he said, but in view Of
changing conditions and growing
enlightenment, move in this di-
rection is possible. He said:
"TO establish a starting point
we must go to the roots of many
problems, all of which need
study and coordination. For
tunately, these are days when
business is gradually becoming
a profession. Recent statistics
prove that the greatest demand
in the high schools and colleges
is for courses in business educa-
ton.
Gradually our institutions of
learning are developing science
of business training and are
turning out graduates who have
a knowledge both of the funda-
mentalS of business research and
of It's application. In fact, the
majority of our progressive cor
poratiOnS are making broad use
of this modern business train.

Taxation a Middle
Discussing taxation, Felix M.
McWhirter. Of Indianapolis, said:
"Our taxation muddle is q
combination of many muddles,
on, produced by all taxes being
too high, refIecting an imprud-
ent level of expenditures; an
other of taxes being inequitable,
refIecting unfair distribution
among various taxpayers, and
the muddle of taxes being too
numerous, reflecting the lack of
a constant policy in revenue
matters"
McWhirter asserted that emf.
nent thinkers insist that taxes are
inequitable, too high, too numer.
Gus and too complicated, and
added:
There are many plausible
explanations of why the cost
of Government has advanced.
A part of the increase may be
attributed to the decreased pur-
chasing power of the dollar. A
second part may be attributed
to the aftermath Of the war.
But the substantial part arises
from these causes:

Frosted Rye Lacking
In Berries; Pen atty
Of Early Fall Sowing,

Rye which has failed to fill with
grain was being exhibited by j. B.
Saylor, today, as a penalty of early
sowing last fall. The only explana-
ton he can give for the absence of
grain was that the rye was IN head
when nipped by frost this spring,
therefore failed to p~ollenize.
The stalks were plucked on the
farm Of Ole Feldheim, on the line of
Burleigh and Emmons counties. A
large acreage was ruined for any
purpose except fodder.
Mr.. Saylor said he believed his
tenant had sown too late, but as the
rye on the. Saylor farm, l.. Emmons,
had not yet reached the heading
stage at the time of the frost, it was
spared and now is coming along
finely.
