CHALLENGES truth
Of EXPLANATION ON
GASOLINE TAX DEAL
Says Proposal to Take Refund
From Farmers Was Spon.
sored BY Executive !.
RELATES INSIDE STORY
Declares Coercion and Promises
of Reward Were Used to
Win Support

Challenging the veracity OF Cover
nor William LANCER, G. G. Talbot,
president of the North Dakota Farm
ers Union. told an inside story Of
events at the last legislative session
In an address here Wednesday night.
In recent speeches Governor LANCER
had asserted that the only solution
for the states financial difficulties
offered by Talbot last winter, was
to take away from the farmers the
refund from the tax on gasoline used
for agricultural purposes.
Denying the charge, Talbot as
serted that the idea was the COVER
nor's own. He demanded that LANCER
assume responsibility for his own
brain children"
Attacking the sales tax, Talbot
asserted that it was passed by the
legislature at the governors demand
and only after every possible coercion
and promise Of political reward had
been resorted to by the executive.
In order that Tribune readers may
have exact information as to the
stand Of Talbot and the Farmers
Union, this newspaper obtained q
copy OF the speech as delivered and
it is being printed in full on page z
Of this issue.
Acceded To Request
Talbot said that, as a personal fav-
or to the governor and at hangers
request, he appeared before Nom
partisan League caucus during the
last session of the legislature to urge
diversion Of the gasoline refunds. He
said he desired to cooperate with the
governor in view of the financial
emergency, and Il permitted myself
to be persuaded to take this course
OF action"
The governor, he said, was present
at the caucus, but made no comment
The governor first suggested diver
sion Of the gasoline refunds. Talbot
said, when 1t was feared some portion
Of the proposed legislation to provide
for funds for the real estate bond In
terest and sinking fund might fail Of
passage. The bill to divert the gaso-
line refunds was killed after the mea-
sures for payment Of interest on bonds
passed.
Nov the governor has the audacity
and the effrontery," Talbot said, Ito
tell the voters that the proposal to
transfer the gasoline refunds was the
product Of my mind and that 1t re-
presented my ideas on the solution Of
problems of state finance
The governor, Talbot said, had
promised him and Congressman Will
liam Lemke that no sales tax measure
would be brought before the legisla-
ture. The morning after this promise
was made, Talbot declared. the gov
ernor sent an appeal to the legislature
for sales tax measure.
