Nils HOkStad Issues Statement to
Support Progressive Measures In
State Legislature.

Nils Hokstad of Sandstone, who was
endorsed at the county convention of
the FarmerLabor Association held in
Sandstone some weeks ago filed the
past week for the office of represen-
tative from this district Mr.. Hok-
stad, upon filing, issued the follow
ing statement:
AT the suggestion of many pro-
gressive-minded citizens of Pine
county and with the endorsement of
the Pine County Farmer-Labor organ
iZation l am filing for the office of
state representative from this county.
1--WE are living in troublesome
times and for the information of the
voters l believe it is only just to
make a statement as to my position
on the major legislative problems af-
fecting the workers, farmers and in
dependent merchants.
II am opposed to sales tax be-
cause, in the first place, it is an un-
just tax, discriminating against the
masses of consumers; a hardship and
nuisance upon our merchants, and the
people of this county have demon
strated their opposition to same by
over thousand citizens signing petit
tions against this tax. The support
of the omnibus bill in the last ses-
sion of legislature with this mi
quitous tax l hold was slap in the
face, and an injustice to the hun
dreds of thousands consumers, and
the Independent merchants of Mime
sofa.
II am opposed to the passage of
the YOungquist constitutional amend
ment which is only subterfuge to
force sales tax upon the consum-
ers and merchants of this state.
Il favor an improved chain store
tax to aid our state treasury, also an
improved income tax. The present
law, sponsored by our lieutenant gov
ernor, Hjalmar Petersen, has been of
great value to our public school sys-
tenn. But the rates should be raised
to further aid the schools. Also an
increase in inheritance tax rates.
81 also shall support raise in the
gross earnings tax on railroad and
telephone companies; also the amend
ment of the corporate excess tax at
a flat 2O-mill rate on all corporate
excess.
Il favor a unicameral legislative
system; a civil service law, and an
adequate old age pension law.
<r;o
tive, especially for the farmer, and
shall support a referendum for CIV
ing the state the privilege to gener-
ate and distribute electric current
such as under the system in Ontario,
Canada.
Il will support the principles of the
farm cooperative movement"
