tations of the range communities so
that they cannot spend SO much.
There are 20 members on the tax
committee, one of whom is ill, and
the % others of us sat there for three
hours Friday morning before finally
getting out of committee all three
bills, recommended to pass. However,
I think some amendments will be
made before these bills are passed.
The measure to exempt employers
of five or less from the unemploy-
ment tax was again sent back to
committee this week, the argument
being that, if we do exempt en-
ployers of a small number, employ
ment should be guaranteed so as to
protect the workers. In regard to
this, I might say that Pine county
paid something over $1,000 in on
this tax and got back in benefits
about $18,500, or some $500 more
than we paid in.

county taxpayers is being held in

Legislative News
Week of March 6 to IL.
BY c. G. MANN,
Representative from Pine County

With time and tempers rapidly
shortening, the Legislature is settling
down to grinding out measures by
the dozen but, whenever piece of
legislation comes up that is import
ant, there ensues hours, and some
times days, of heated debate.
On Monday we passed 100000
relief bill, called a deficiency bill,
which is to provide money to carry
on relief activities until July l of
this year. Forty-four thousand dol
lars was cut from the total as rec
commended by the Relief committee
and so the amount as finally passed
was flat $3,000,000. Mr.. McGregor
of the engineering staff in charge of
projects had asked for $750,00O for
sponsors share of project but this
was cut to $550,0O by the appropria-
tons committee, as Mr.. McGregor
did not have projects listed to this
amount but was asking for the extra
100000 as a sort of cushion or re-
serve.
Among the projects listed by Mr.
McGregor was included the addition
to the Willow River school, I am
hoping that l may get other Pine
county projects included in the re-
lief bill for the next two years which
will be drawn up shortly
On Monday we also appropriated
5000 to finish one unit of the teach
ers' college at Bemidji. They had
asked for $346,OO0, approximately, to
finish the entire building, but 1 guess
after. all the talk in connection with
that building, were glad to get a
little.
On Wednesday large share of the
afternoon session was taken up with
a minority report. The committee
on transportation had recommended
for indefinite postponement bill to
allow the Railroad and Warehouse
Commission power to regulate trains.
To my mind it was train-length and
full-view bill all in one, and, al
though one member said it was a
harmless piece of regulatory legisla-
ton, I felt that it was about as harm
less as ton or two of dynamite and
voted to support the majority of the
committee and kill the bill.
Large delegations of people from
the iron range have been heard by
the tax committee, both mornings
and evenings, on three bills, two of
them increasing the occupational and
royalty tax on, iron ore, and the
other to decrease the per capita limi-

BARRIERS Meet.

Harold Dietz was in Hinckley Mon
day afternoon to attend meeting
of Pine county BARRIERS called by
officials of the state board of BARRIERS
examiners. Matters pertaining to
their profession as well as the state

be made in the present code whereby

Christmas eve and instead have their
shops open the evening before. The
present code reads that shops may
be kept open the evening before a
holiday.
