State Income Expected to
Yield Five Million
Law Becomes Effective as of JAN
uary 1 Unless Thrown Out
BY Court

st. Paul, April 24-The new state
income tax law is expected to yield
$5,000,000 in revenue during it's first
year Of operation, it was estimated.
The law becomes operative as of
January 1, 1888 with first tax collec-
lions to be made in 1894.
AS Governor Floyd B. Olson has
signed the bill establishing the tax,
the only remaining possibility that
it will not become effective would
be a state supreme court decision
that it is unconstitutional, which
could come about only through a
test suit by taxpayer.
Collections will be paid into the
income tax school fund from which
the state twice a year would allot
a pro rata share of the revenue to
school districts including city
school systems on the basis of COM
pulsory school age population.
The funds thus allotted to school
districts would be used first to pay
up any bonded or funded indebted
ness and then to meet current
operating expenses. The rates and
collections Of the tax will be on
the same basis as the federal in
come tax, it was pointed out.

bill upon the petition of Is farm

a referee or counciliation commits
sioner must be- appointed by the
court for that county. This concil-

Every farmer now in debt should
hear an explanation of this meas
ure whether he is interested in
availing himself of it's provisions
or not. Similarly the latest devel-
opments in the farm mortgage bill
now passed by congress with vari-

setting up of such a procedure
would involve much money, which
at this time would be impractical;
but the Extension Division has
kindly opened up its resources to
Sank Centre for the purpose of
helping out our young people, to
keep them college minded. They
will be getting the benefit of well
planned courses from the Univer-
sity.
Often to the minds of parents
comes the question whether or not
it is worth spending five to six
hundred dollars to find out whether
or not their children will be sue
cess in the college type of work. 1t
might be a saner investment to let
them try some of these courses
which will put them in the college
class atmosphere, to see whether or
not they will be successful. To the
student it would mean possible as
surance that the last three years
of work would be forthcoming. We
invite the interested parents to
come to the school for information
and to talk over plans. Any day
from three to four o'clock.

May 1, under the auspices of the
American Legion of that city.
To headline the card the Legion
has signed Johnny Stanton, of Min
neapolis and Glen "Kid" Lehr, of
Des Moines, Iowa, two 135 pound
fighters, who are stepping up the
ladder seeking top-notch places in
some of the bigger fights of the
country. Just preceding them on
the card will be Jack Gibbons, a
son of the famous Mike Gibbons,
and Jack Duane. Gibbons weighs
160 pounds and Duane weighs 165.
Gibbons is ready for some heavy
fighting, his father said recently,
and the elder Gibbons is anxious
to see his son go into real battle.
These two fights will run six
rounds each, and the whole pro-
gram is one of 80 rounds. Five
preliminary bouts of four rounds
have been matched. They are Roy
Herbst, Duelm, (19O) VS. Hub Hall,
st. Cloud, (195; Ted Shiffer, Pine

the boxing commission. The pro-
gram will start at eight o'clock,
and will be in the Junior High
School auditorium, affording sound
bleacher seats on all sides of the
ring. ~

STATE TAX RATE
AT new HIGH LEVEL
Decrease In Valuation Is Re-
sponsible for Levy of 1898
Mills In 1884
ABOVE LAST BIENNIUM
Unexpected Revenues for Var
ious Sources Might Result
In Slight Reduction

st. Paul, April PAS the ironic
outcome of a session that pledged
itself to economy, the 1888 legisla-
ture Wednesday wound up it's eff
forts by approving the highest tax
levy in the states history.
1t fixed the maximum rate that
property owners must pay into the
state treasury at 1925 mills for
1884 and 1898 mills for 1885.
This new high rate for state Ie-
vles was necessary despite the
fact that the legislature managed
to trim nearly 100000 from state
budgets. It was based on the an
ticipation that revenues from other
sources will fall below estimated
figures as has been the states ex-
perience during the past two
years.
Should revenues from other
sources prove to be greater, a
lower rate can be set by the state
auditor for the general property
taxes.
These new rates would bring in
to the state treasury total of $751;
54,339 for the biennium, as COM
pared to $43,173,320 appropriated by
the 1881 legislature. The increased
rate in the face of reduced appro-
priations, State Auditor Stafford
King explained, is due to a slump
in assessed valuations.
According to Auditor King, the
amount of money that has to be
raised by taxation of general prop
erty is $17,2O4,749. Of this amount
$8,651 1859 will be for the fiscal year
of 1884, and the balance for the
fiscal year of 1885.
To realize these amounts, Audi
tor King said, levy of So mills
will be required for the general re-
venue fund for 1884, and of 81 mills
for 1885. The difference between
these millage rates and the total
levy is made up by fixed statutory
levies for variety of purposes,
such as the University of Minneso-
ia building fund, the state road and
bridge levy, national guard armor-
les and others.
In addition to these property tax
levies, the state has income sources
in levies on iron ore tonnage and
on gross earnings of railroads and
telephone companies, and other spe-
cial taxes. . 49,
The maximum levies exceed by
three mills the levies fixed by the
1881 legislature, which then were
considered the highest in history.
The 1881 legislature set a levy Of
7.S8 mills for the fiscal year of 1882,
and of 8.25 mills for 1888.

Dialects Is a Serious
Problem of Middle Age
Watchfulness and Faithful Atten-
ton to Treatment Necessary,
Say Physicians

st. Paul, April 24-Many men,
women, and children are now alive
and going comfortably about their
pursuits who would have been hope
lessly doomed to early deaths from
diabetes 20 years ago.
Today's bulletin from the Mime
sofa State Medical Association calls
attention to the medical miracle
performed by insulin for diabetes
and at the same time warns dia-
betics of the great necessity for
sticking to their guns.
1.-THE intelligent diabetic patient
is living as long, if not longer than
most of the rest of u.s." say the doc
tors in this bulletin. But it re
quires faithful following of a rou-
time and especial care to avoid the
degenerative diseases that come on
after middle age"
Just because person with dia-
betes does, with the help of insulin,
live so much longer than formerly,
say the doctors, he is just that
much more liable to diseases of
the heart and the blood vessels.
These diseases threaten the diabetic
more than others, particularly if he
is careless and allows his blood
sugar to get beyond normal limits.
when diabetes is discovered in
a man or woman of middle age or
after, it is almost always associat-
ed with high blood pressure and
hardening of the arteries" the doc
tors declare. I'm such a condition,
the heart suffers disastrously. It's
probably diseased arteries are
bringing in a deficient amount of
blood and that blood in turn con-
tains an excess of sugar which
chokes the normal activities of the
heart muscle cells.
"The diabetic who has arrived at
a comfortable so years or so should
remember that carelessness about
seeking regular physical check up
is likely to result disastorously.
TN these days." they conclude,
there are many diabetic children
who look forward to a lifetime of
special treatment and special diet
airy care. They are subject to I'M
usual dangers and they will need
constant watching. Parents should
realize that neglect means not only
the possibility of immediate illness
with diabetes but an added threat
Of circulatory complication in years
to come"

than two years."

The depreciation in property val
ues in the last two years brings a
smaller revenue to the state per
mill tax. Two years ago it was es-
timated a one-mill statewide tax
would produce $1,880,OOO revenue.
This year a one-mill tax is estimat-
ed to produce $1,5O0,000 revenue.
Thus, when the legislature Of 1881
voted state tax levy Of 8.25 mills
for the first year of the biennium
just closing, it was estimated to
produce $15,4100O0 revenue, where
as the 1898 mill tax for the first
year of the next biennium will pro-
duce $16,470,0O0. For the second
year of the biennium just ending
the 1881 legislature voted a state
levy of 1888 mills which was cal
culated to raise 1922, 400 reve-
nue..
In making the computations on
which the new tax levy was based,
the state auditors office compiled
table showing the tentative appro-
priations made by the legislature
for state activities the next two
years, as compared to the appro-
priations made in 1881 for the pres
emf hiennium.

STABILITY PLAN
Foreign Diplomats Are Pleas
ed With the Plan of
Pres. Roosevelt
ISSUED A STATEMENT
Discussions Will Not Conclude
Definite Arrangements
Conference Will Settle

Washington, April 25-The far
flung program President Roosevelt
has conceived for world disarma-
ment and economic stability was
advanced in holder relief today az
the trend of his international con-
versations turned more definitely on
British and French requests fol
war debts settlements.
Having taken up the debts ques-
ton in purely private discussions
with the visiting statesmen-Prime
Minister Ramsey Macdonald, of
Great Britain and former Premier
Edouard Herriot, of France - the
president summoned their advisers
and now is driving to a conclusion
the American proposals for a new
order in world affairs as his part of
any bargain on that subject.
The complete American program
was presented to M. Herriot at the
White House last night in a meet
ing that lasted until midnight and
today the French staff Of experts
took it up for detailed study.
Mr.. Macdonald who Joined the
president in a declaration of deep
satisfaction" over the three days of
economic discussions, was invited
to return to the White house late
today with his staff of experts for
a last conference on the remaining
point at issue.
Everything pointed toward the
world economic conference to be
held in London for fulfillment of
the understandings that are being
reached. That meeting will assem-
BILE about the same time the next
war debt payments are due June
Is.
The first meeting last night be-
tween the president and M. Herriot
was followed by a general confer
ence of American and French ex-
perts, including Secretary Hull and
French ambassador.
Leaving the White House in high
spirits and enthusiasm, M. Herriot
spread his arms expansively as he
told newspapermen that "every-
thing" was taken up in the precise
program" announced by the presi-
dent and put into the hands of the
experts. BY "everything" the
included war debts.
Earlier in the evening Mr.. Roose-
welt and Mr.. Macdonald said in a
joint statement:
Among the subjects considered
in these discussions were the world
price level, central bank policies,
standards, exchange re-
improvement of the sta
tus of silver and, in addition, q
of world problems relating
to trade and particularly ehlimita-
ton of trade restrictions.

Of these subjects has been reserved
for the world monetary and econo-
mic conference itself.
ut was never the purpose of the
present discussions to conclude def
mite agreements. They were de-
signed to explore and to map out
he territory to be covered. This
purpose has been admirably served
by the conversations which have
aiken place."
