many country schools will now have

work for the benefit Of the schools
that are in the most dire need finan-
cially. I am referring to the strictly
country schools, they as q group have
not been able to measure up to the
standard required to get the state aid
yet the tax payers In those districts
have contributed their share toward
the fund.
At the present time we contribute
to the fund and then II we have fol-

Why this dictatorship? Why not
leave the money under the control Of

The wiping out Of the state aid will
only work to the fairness Of all.
Another appropriation that should
be eliminated Is that Of the state

the game laws SO that the owner Of
the land may hunt at any time on his

his own land. Some regulation could
be retained on state lands. The per-

FINANCES OF STATE
in GOOD CONDITION
Shafer Tells Rotarians All Bills
Are Paid and Nice Bal
ance Remains

Review Of North Dakota's financial
situation as it will exist when he
leaves offive next week was offered to
members Of the Rotary club at their
luncheon meeting Wednesday noon in
the G. P. Hotel by Governor George
F. Shafer.
Pointing out that there will be an
exodus as well as an Inauguration
next January 4, the executive remark
ed that he has been resident of Bis
marck for IL years as public official
but gave no hint as to his future
plans.
The last three years have been try
ing ones for the federal and all state
governments, he said, presenting crisis
after crisis and emergency after emer-
gency which the people looked to the
government for leadership In meeting.
Reviewing the states financial sit
uation, he said the auditing board paid
all bills at recent meeting and there
remains in the treasury ample money
to meet any bills incurred by this ad-
ministration which may be presented
later, and comfortable balance be-
sides.
North Dakota's state government
has been on cash basis for the last
eight years, he said, and has paid all
bills monthly without overdrafts or
borrowings.
Since 1925, Governor Shafer said
there has been accumulated in the
general fund the sum of 1,0O0, 900
which has been available to tide the
state government over between tax
paying periods and thus eliminate
the necessity for borrowing. Another
result Of this accumulation, he said,
was to insure the financial stability
Of the state government in times of
stress such as 1t has encountered
in the past.
Discussing reductions in the cost
OF government, Governor Shafer
pointed out that more than two
thirds of the states expenses are in
