The Purpose OF the Proposed Amendment
BY reason Of the operation of the De.
partment Of Rural Credit the state of
Minnesota has acquired title to large
amount Of improved farm lands. Prop
erty owned by the state is not subject
to taxation. The purpose of this pro-
posed amendment is to give the legis-
iature constitutional authority to SUBJ
alton OF the system of rural credits to
taxation and the payment of assess.
ments for improvements, and to provide
that such taxes and assessments be

ture may provide that such taxes and
assessments be paid from the rural
credit funds, or 1t may appropriate

towns, counties, cities, villages and
boroughs OF the state In which such
lands are located, without discrimIna-
tion, an amount not exceeding what
would have been realized by these gov
ernmentaI subdivisions from assessments

TAXATION OF INCOME AND MA.
TIONAL BANKS.

Amendment to section /, article
., of the constitution of the State
of Minnesota, relating to taxa
ton, to authorize the imposing of
taxes on incomes, and on fran
chises and privileges, including
income, franchises and privileges
of railroad companies, measured
by income, which taxes may be
classified, and may be graduated
and progressive and providing for
exemptions therefrom, and that
such taxes may be in lieu, in whole
or in part, of other taxes on real
or personal property. 1t shall not
be necessary to submit to a vote
of the people any law imposing
tax upon the income, franchises
or privileges of railroad COM
panies. The legislature may enact
any law required to make the tax
alton of national banking asso-
Citations conform to the laws Of

The Purpose Of the Proposed Amendment

The Purpose of the Proposed Amendment
The proposed amendment is Intended,
first, to give the legislature specific au-
thority to enact such laws respecting
the taxation of national banking asso-
Citations as will conform to the laws of
the United States. The laws of the
United States at present provide In SUBJ
stance that the. states may tax the
shares of national banking associa-
tion, provided that the rate of tax on
such shares shall not be greater than Is
assessed upon other moneyed capital In
the hands of Individual citizens of such
state coming In competition with the
business of national banks. At present
the laws Of Minnesota provide that
shares Of such a banking association
shall be assessed at thirty-three and
true and full value Moneys and credits
and mortgages upon and executory con.
tracts for the sale of real estate are
taxed In this state at a lower rate. The
supreme court Of the United States has
held that the Minnesota plan of taxing
shares Of national banking association
Is invalid because these shares are taxed
at a higher rate than moneys and
contracts for the sale of real es-
tate. Under the proposed amendment
II Is Intended to give the legislature the
power to enact laws for the taxation OF
national banks that shall be In harmony
with the federal statutes on that SUBJ
Ject, even though such laws might Of
fend other provisions Of the state con-
stitution.
The remainder Of the new matter
which would be placed In said section I
by the proposed amendment Is Intended
10 give the legislature specific authority
to enact laws providing for tax on In.
comes, and on franchises and privl.
ieges measured by income, including in
come, franchises and privileges of rail-
road companies. II Is proposed that
all Incomes may be classified and that
taxes may be graduated and progressive;
that Is to say, the rates may be differ
ent on incomes of different sizes. IL Is
intended that the legislature shall have
power to allow reasonable exemptions
from such taxes and to provide that such
Income taxes may be In lieu, either In
whole or In part, of taxes on such other
classes OF real or personal property as

The Effect Of the Proposed Amendment
The proposed amendment, IL adopted,

I. The legislature will have specific
authority to make the laws of this state
relating to taxation Of national banking
associations conform to the laws OF the
United States, Notwithstanding any
other provision of the state constitu-

2. The legislature will have specific
authority to adopt a graduated and pro-
gressve income tax law, including tax
on franchises and privileges, as meas
ured by income, and on the income,
franchises and privileges of railroad
companies. The legislature may allow
reasonable exemptions and may provide
that the Income tax shall be In lieu, In
whole or In part, of taxes on certain
classes OF real or personal property.
Such laws taxing the Income, franchises
and privileges of railroad companies will
not be subject to a vote Of the people
as provided by article 4, section 32a, OF

 The air corps appropriations for 1932, Aviation points out, wer~ s31,4s0,000. The estimate for 1898 is down to s25,483, ,000, a reduc- ton of 19 per cent. The budget allowance for new planes and en- zines, equipment. spare parts and accessories for the army, includ- ing the organized reserve and the National Guard. is $12,576,000. It is the lowest figure since 1928. It Is 24 per cent. or almost $4,000, 900, below that for the current fiscal year 1892.
 The navy fares still worse than the army, the publication notes. The total amount available for new aircraft for the next fiscal year, unless congress shows itself more liberal than the president and the director of the budget. will be $5,- 800, 900.

 Periodically for years he has come to Warm Springs, Ga, for his health, which today Is far more robust than In a decade. While at Warm Springs, he has carefully built up his strength, found much time for New York state official business and what is nationally more significant-much time to coifer with Dixie's political. leaders.
 But before sS per cent of the visitors left Warm Springs they somehow made 1t point to ex- press their belief that Roosevelt was their 'man of the hour" that their states were "solidly behind him."
 That's the picture in the south as painted by the political lead- CTS, recognized as much by the rank and file voter. Roosevelt has

absolutely unique feat when he wrote the section of his message on national defense without letting aviation creep into 1t anywhere. On no other occasion in the last five years, we imagine, has any one undertaken to summarize the whole field of military and naval affairs in six hundred words with out the slightest mention of air. craft or air power"
 In the budget for the coming fiscal year, the aeronautical items, especially the proposed allotments for aviation fin the army and navy, take much more than their share of the cut, 1t is pointed out. The budget estimates for the direct purpose of military and naval aviation are decreased from $62,- 625,000 to $52,133,000. a cut of 16 per cent. The nominal estimate for naval aviation for 1893 is sejt at $26,6G0.000, as against $31,- 145,O00 for 1892.

 "Treatment of aviation Is fn sharp contrast with that meted out to the service and sub-service sec- tons of the navy" says the aero nautical monthly. While the ale lotment for new naval aircraft un- dergoes a 70 per cent reduction. expenditures for new naval vessels are actually estimated to increase by [ per cent. The change in the number of new planes to be bought is as striking as the change in the amount of money provided for buying. The official explanatory statement reveals that the budget is based on a plan to buy 23S new planes for the army and only 150 for the navy, during the year. as against approximately 4S0 and 325, respectively, this year.

 There Is nothing on the south's political horizon as yet to indf- cate that the church opposition to "wet" candidacy will be any less vigorous in 1892 than 1t was in 1928, when Herbert Hoover raided the "solid South" and carried four previously democratic states.

z BASKETBALL GAMES BILLED
 FOR TONIGHT
Bremen, Road Men, Min CTS and Alumni Play
 in Gymnasium

Good basketball games are prom ised tonight in the Juneau High School gymnasium. The Juneau Fire Department will meet the Bu- reau of Public Roads and the Jul neau Alumni will encounter thc Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Com pany.
 AS usual, the Smoke Eaters may be expected to exhibit a fast brand of the hoop pastime, but it is noi an impossibility that they will be considerably slowed up this even ing by the Road Builders.
 Faithful, Intensive Practice
 The latter have been doing some faithful, intensive practice in the last few weeks to perfect tean work and to execute new plays Undoubtedly, the Bureau athlete are in form to exert tonight thei best effort of the season.
 The Alumni have nothing worth while on the Miners.
 Although the Hard Rock boys are a comparatively recent organiza- ton they are comprised of good in. dividual players and, now, as a re- suit of consistent practice they car justly boast of fairly good team work.
 Close And Interesting
 The Alumni and Miners ought to give a close and interesting ex- hibition of the popular indoor sport.
 Tonight's basketball games are probably the only ones that will b. played in this city this week, inas- much as the boy and girl teams representing Juneau and Douglas high schools, will meet in Douglas Friday night.
 Popular prices will prevail to- night, and arrangements have been made for large attendance.

SCHOOL TEAMS ARE READY FOR CRUCIAL GAMES
Ch annel Championships Can Be Decided d at
 Douglas Tomorrow

After light workouts this after noon in the gymnasium of the the Juneau High School, the boy and girl basketball squads representing the institution were scheduled to go into huddles with their respec- tive coaches, E. G. Wentland and Miss Enid Burns, for some skull practice preparatory ot the crucial contests tomorrow night at Douglas against boy and girl teams repre- senting the High School there.
 Can Win Championship
 If the Juneau boys win tomorrow night, they will have achieved three victories, enough for the Gastineau Channel championship. If they lose, then they and the Douglas athletes will be tied, two all, for the title and fifth game will have 70 be played next week to de- ermine the winner of the Chan lel honor
 If the Juneau girls are victorious tomorrow night, they and the Douglas maids will be tied, two ,ames each, for the Channel cham .,tcnship and the fifth game will be played in Juneau week from to- morrow night. If the Douglas girls yin tomorrow evening, the title will be theirs and they will be qualified to meet the Ketchikan district champions for Southeast Alaska honors.
 Douglas Has Advantages In tomorrow nights game be- ween the boy teams, Juneau will nave some disadvantages to over come. The ceiling of the Douglas 1atatorium where the contest will 1e played is comparatively low. The Juneau High School gymna- ;ium ceiling is high and the Ju- neau players are accustomed to arching the ball high.
 The Douglas team averages greater height, greater strength and greater weight, and it's mem oers have more experience in play Ing together, some of them being ln their fourth year of play on the team.
 Juneau Boys Hopeful
 Notwithstanding dra wbacks, however, the Juneau athletes are Iuite hopeful of victory.
 We beat Douglas on it's own loor in the second game of the resent series,' commented Coach Nentland, and, given fair share f the breaks, it is not unlikely hat we shall be returned the win lers again."
 The Juneau girls are determined 0 take tomorrow nights contest. f they can swing into action this veek like they did last week, the yame is 'in the bag and, then, lext week in the local gymnasium, here will be witnessed the classic contest of a decade for the Gasti- leau Channel championship.
